Good Morning,

Yesterday I went for a 2 mile run and a snowshoe walk. Today I did GS chest/triceps.

DS basketball team took 2nd in the tournament against the other Rice Lake team. It was a fun day. Tonight is another basketball game.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Hello there!
Well, that weekend went by a bit too fast! Saturday I did KenpoX for the 1st time and I really liked it! Sunday I spent the entire day at a Bball tournament so I just did some stretching. Today is the elliptical. I am going to do a "random" program. Those programs always tend to scare me cause I never know how hard it's going to be! Some of them have been brutal! Oh and I will have to shovel!

Karen, hope you enjoyed your run yesterday! You guys don't seem to be getting the snow that we are getting this winter! Your team did well in the tournament! Ours did not too as well!

Hope the rest of you ladies enjoyed the weekend!

Have a great day- Susan

Morning BB's,

Cardio Power & Restistance, CTX Chest and MIS Chest are finished for today. Sunday I took the dog on an hour long walk, and Saturday was Plyo Cardio Circuit, CTX/MIS Biceps & Triceps. DH was gone all weekend, so it was just me and the girls. He finally got home at around 10:30. I was asleep on the couch.

Karen, Sounds like a fun time in the snow. Sorry to hear about you getting your hours adjusted for next year. Congrats to your DS and the bball.

Susan, Kenpo is a great workout, and even better when you add weighted gloves. Hope that random program doesn't torture you to much.

Have a great day!

The weekend definitely went by too quickly. Didn't do BFBM Friday night like I was supposed to. No excuse - just lazy; did it Saturday instead. Sunday was NMTZ 1-4 + Shred 2. Today is supposed to be rest but I spent a half hour shoveling snow and worked up a sweat. Tomorrow is NMTZ + Shred #1. Still figuring out how I'm going to do this with Parent/Teacher Conferences tomorrow night. May have to get up at 4 a.m.! Have the same problem on Wednesday.

Susan - You are very brave to do a random program. I guess I'm too much of a control freak to try that.

Laurie & Karen - I'm glad you're enjoying outdoor activities. Don't know what's wrong with me but I haven't felt like doing anything outdoors this winter. Just want it all to melt.

Happy Monday!

Hi! Yes, the weekend flew by! I spent all day (7:30-5:00) at the clinic getting tests done. at least I know my ticker is still ticking away!!

All the kids were home to celebrate DHs 50 bday (which is tomorrow). We enjoyed ourselves.
today there was a package on the porch and of course I figured it was a gift for DH, but it was a gift from him to me...Turbo Jam! I have always wanted to try it and now I can! do any of you have this? What do you think?

Sat. I did a short 2.5 mile run and STS 15. today was HiiT pyramid. Tough, but I love it!

We don´t have nearly the amount of snow that it sounds like some of you got.
Sue, shoveling IS a workout! good luck to you if you are really getting up at 4 My earliest is 4:45.

Laurie, sounds like a good weekend. Did you and your DDs do anything special? sometimes if my DH is gone, we watch movies and eat popcorn!

Karen, I didn´t know about the change in your hours...will have to go back and read that. You had a busy weekend, and sounds like a busy week.

Susan, how was the radom program? I have never done that, either. Should try it sometime.

Hi, I did Kickbox Surge today. I didn't really like the workout. I couldn't follow half of it anyway. I like Hi/Lo Knockout much better. Was suppose to do Insanity but I needed a change. I don't follow rotations well, even my own.

Lala, glad your ticker is still working. That is a long time for tests. Tell DH Happy Birthday from your Buff friends. I have Turbo Jam. It's been awhile since I've done it. I am not much of a dancer/aerobic type person. I prefer more athletic. She does have lots of spunk.

Sue, hope you are getting your workouts in with your busy schedule. Winter is cold. I know why you don't want to go out. You are already out shoveling a lot.

Laurie, are you liking Insanity? Will you do the whole rotation?

Susan, glad you are enjoying P90X. I am very thankful we are not getting snow like you guys have been getting.

Have a great day. DS Basketball team won last night. They are leading their division.

Morning BB's,

Pure Cardio and CTX/MIS Back is finished. Was able to get through the whole 10 min. warm up without having to stop. Had to stop when I got to those standing mountain climbers. One minute of those is really tough to do.

Sue, I have been getting really frustrated with having to get all the winter weather gear on just to walk the dog. I'm ready for the spring jacket. Are you on your last week of this Jillian rotation?

Lala, Tell you DH happy birthday. Mine turns 50 in June. Still have not decided what or if we will have a big or little party. Glad your ticker is functioning as per normal. I tried Turbo Jam, but I'm not a dancey type person so I gave them to a friend of mine. She loves them. The DD's and I went shopping & watched movies all weekend. Did you find that disc that went missing? I'm hoping it showed up.

Karen, Yep I'm going to do the whole rotation. I find I have been doing much better when I stick to a rotation vs. changing it up. This way I'm giving the rotation a chance, and causing myself to be consistant. Congrats to your DS, glad they are doing so well. Is he in High School?

Have a great day!

Lala - I have Turbo Jam and enjoy it. It's fun to do and the music is good. It feels like I'm not working very hard and then I check my HRM and see I've burned a ton of calories so that's always good.

Laurie - Yep, I'm on the last week of Jiliian. 3 more days to go! I give this rotation a thumbs up but am looking forward to doing different workouts. You are doing a great job with Insanity. A minute of standing mountain climbers is killer. I can barely do 30 seconds or however long they are in BFBM.

Karen - I usually can't stick to rotations either which is why it's amazing I stuck to the Jillian one. I should follow more rotations though because they force me to work harder than I normally would.

Well, I got up at 4:15 instead of 4. Couldn't bring myself to set the alarm clock that early. I finished NMTZ and Shred #1 and still made it to work on time. It's amazing how quick you can shower and get ready when you have to! Tomorrow is BFBM + QTZ and this time I will have to do QTZ instead of NMTZ 1-4 to fit it in. DS has Jazz Band so we need to leave the house earlier than my normal time.

Today was STS back/bis. I´ve found that I like following rotations simply because I don´t have to think about what workout to do!

And YES, I did find my disk...it was stuck in the player. DH got it out for me!

Sue...you are amazing getting up at 4:15 Were you pooped out by 8 pm?!

Karen, congrats to DS and his team!

Laurie, just picturing standing mountain climbers makes me tired

DH sends his thanks for all the bday wishes!! Laurie, mine didn´t want me to plan a big party because I am such a bad planner...NO JOKE Which was just as well, because I honestly don´t know where to start! So I got him a promise of Packers tickets...hope I can keep it!

Good Morning,

Today i did GS back/bi/shoulders.

Lala, glad you found your dvd.

Laurie, how long are the CTX/MIS backwork? DS is 12 and is in 6th grade.

Sue, good for you getting up early to get your workout in. I think I am doing well at getting up at 4:45. Glad you are enjoying your rotation.

Hi Susan and Cheryl.

Have a wonderful day.
