Hey Girls

Im at work and just have a little down time. I have had a busy morning so far...but its lunch time now And I just found out that this week coming up is going to be my week off! The new girl starts taking my shifts this week. I am excited about it

Diana** I don't know how I missed your post from earlier. My eyes must have been half closed I usually buy salon hair color but when I went to the store yesterday it was on sale. I don't even remember what it was but I liked the color. I haven't done my hair since Oct! So, its been a while. I do find that store bought colors are usually darker then they appear on the box but I think this one was right on the money. I could have even went a little darker but I would rather this then to light. I think my client is a slow loser to...she is proving that. She gets impatient with it. She text me the other day and asked if I knew of anything that could speed it up Oh...that irritates me so much. Yeah, if I knew I would put it in a bottle and sell it!

Wendy** See...and I know your going to laugh at me, but I didn't think P90X was that hard. I even tried ab ripper the other day and had no DOMS after. Some of the moves were tough. I really need to look for a good ab dvd or maybe a mish mosh. I am going to cuba in a few weeks after all Gots to strut my stuff!

LauraR** Nice workout! I am crossing my fingers you get in!

So today's workout was abs, 4 miles on the TM (35 mins) and 15 mins on the bike!

BBL!
Lori

Lori:: STS is tougher then the X but the X was tough in it's own right too. Especiall C&B! That work out slayed me! I haven't done anything but Core Syn in many moons though so I can't attest to what it would be like now. I DO need to grab ARX and give it a whirl though! I don't recall necessarily getting DOMS from ARX but I had a hard time keeping up/finishing all the reps. I'm tellin' ya, if you wanna improve your abs, do them DAILY! Do them for 5 days straight and then rest 'em for 1 day. Wash, rinse and repeat. It's done wonders for me! You don't have to do the toughest or the longest ab routines out there, just make sure you work them in some way shape or form! Try it! I'm tellin you!!!!

LauraR:: Good luck signing up for the RT! I remember the pre-sign up jitters! I think you'll get in though! Keep us posted! Yay for getting the quote thing down! I'm off to get my teaching degree now!

Lori - I am excited about getting my lululemon stuff in .. should be in next week will let you know how I like it!! Not much more than what I pay for Nike stuff .. well a bit more .. but hey if it fits , and lasts, and moves and wicks good I will pay more for qulaity stuff!!!

Wendy - so you are a HURTIN' huh?? OK .. you just twisted my arm a bit more .. but no worries I LUV hearing about new workouts .. even if it may hurt the wallet .. but $20 .. HA .. that is nothing for a good workou t!!!

Di - I usually wear Nike stuff - and it can be pricey .... but lululemon is a bit up there .. LOL .. but if I like it and it wears good and last good .. worth the money!!! I LOVE working legs .. and my legs are my best feature (usually you hate working your problem spot .. and mine would be bis .. UGH .. would rather take a beating then work them)

LauraR - congrats on the road trip confimation WOOT WOOT doing a happy dance for you!!! My legs are longer .. leaner and muscular .. they always shred up good .. I am kinda a ruler shape .. athletic build .. but my problem area is my midsection and upper body .. tends to be THICK ... ..

Jacque - my friend where are you???

I did a power walk/run at lunch - got too hot and sweaty - going to go on home and chill tonight - hope to do STS TB tmrw!!! I did end up teaching a fulll plyo class last night .. and it was a sweatfest .. and man did my legs BURN and they were sooooo heavy .. but today they are MUCH better!!!

Good Morning!

I am up to early for a saturday morning...that's forsure. I woke up to check the time and I couldn't get back to sleep. I figured it was just as well I get up. I have training before I go to work anyway and I wanna workout before that. I am sure I will be able to get a little snooze at work if I wanna. And worse case I will have a nap with DS before I go out tonight, even though I intended for DD to put him to bed.

I am going out with the girls tonight and am looking forward to it. I haven't been out in fine form in a while. I am thinking I won't be up this early tomorrow morning. I am looking forward to it!

Wendy** I have been working my abs every day pretty much. I think that's why I want new dvds, then I have more to choose from. I do have strong abs and they are getting more defined all the time.

Laura** I can't wait for you to get your stuff either. It takes almost 2 weeks for me to receive mine b/c they ship from the other side of the country! Shipping is free but its ground. I don't know if I have the option to inquire about faster shipping. I am tempted to look and see what is new....oh dear! I don't need anymore! LOL I bought ALOT of stuff last month. Sounds like you have a nice weekend ahead of you.

LauraR** Congrats on getting into the RT!! You must be pretty excited! I know I would be.

Diana** What are your plans for this weekend??

So I am going to do HR UB, a run and then KB. If I have enough time I may even do the leg work in HR as well. Lord knows I am up early enough!

Lori

Just did PowerStrikes 4. Living on adrenaline today from the RT signup yday!

My upper body is so tense. A lot has been going on, and I have to be ready to leave home for another continent in 7 weeks. So, I'm a little stressed. Going to go get another massage today. One of the perks of life in Uganda. The power and water may go off for 10 days at a time, but a massage is affordable.

Hi Girls

Oh...sleep! I am getting soooo sleepy! I may have to take a early nap at work! LOL

My workout today was another mish mosh. I did HR UB, 3 miles on TM, 4DSKB, and MMA UB combos. I have my ankle weights strapped around my hands while I was punching. My shoulders were fried.

LauraR** That's funny! I think I would rather have water and power then a massage! LOL

BBL!
Lori

Hi Ladies,

We are having DS3's birthday party today. He will be 15 on Monday and cannot wait to get his permit. Unfortunately, the DMV is closed for President's day on Monday so he will have to wait until Tuesday. I think 5 boys will be spending the night. The only thing I'm really looking forward to is learning how to use th Kinect! DS1 is setting it up for us.

The cake is in the oven and I'm getting read on the ice cream dessert. I'm expecting the kids to take care of cleaning the house.

My workout for today will be Back & Biceps and maybe a HIIT w/o.

Wendy-you don't need much room for the TRX. You hook in the door similar to using the tubing in P90X. I'm going to try to view the dvd today but probably won't have time to use it until tomorrow. Are you in AC this weekend?? Good Luck!

LauraR-congrats on getting into the RT. They are a lot of fun. ITA w/Lori, I'd much rather have power and water than a massage.

Lori-nice mish mosh this morning. Yeah, I was up pretty early too. I had to make my own coffee and was not happy about that.

LauraT-I plan on buying Supreme 90....damn you Wendy...I too would like more cardio w/o's and although this series is mostly weights, if the cardio is better than what's in the X, it's worth it.

bbl
