I started another thread since I had the wrong date on the other one. :mad: I wish we could edit the thread titles!

Hi everyone! I did TS's High Intensity Step Mix 2 today- love that workout! I burned about 720 calories. I will do abs later- I had to move it and get showered since Stanley Steemer is coming this morning.

I also ended up doing L&G yesterday with my mom. She is in from Arizona right now and staying with us for 3 weeks. She is really out of shape and it's been fun to help her do a little bit of Cathe. I just want her to think about getting healthy, but it's hard to motivate someone that is only half motivated. She wants it, but I think it seems overwhelming at the same time.

Sonya: Good luck today. I was thinking of you this morning.

Have a great day everyone!
 
My morning didn't start well. For some reason the alarm didn't go off. I slept over an hour later than I should have. Woke with a horrible headache. Forgot to set the coffee maker last nightWorkout was Kelly Coffey's Cardio Sculpt Fitness Premix cardio mix and I burned 260 calories. I then did Cathe's no equipment abs and burned 52 calories. Total calories burned was 312. Workout was 56 minutes.

Patti, I know last time I started the check in I accidentally put caps on the first two letters and tried to edit:mad: Nice calorie burn ;)
 
Today was cardio and I chose Cardio Coach #8. Had an excellent workout and woke up with energy and no headache! :eek:

I did something different with Challenge #3. I did it like Candace does Challenge #4 on her workout. I did the hill climbs and then when you are suppose to do the last minute at a level 4, I dropped my incline to 0% and sprinted the last minute. Felt great. I love CC #8 but I hate all the hills so I decided to change it a bit. It worked out great.

Cardio stats:
1 hour
2:43 below zone
22 min. in zone
36 min. above zone
513 calories burned
3.5 miles travelled
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Great workouts everyone!!!

I am gonna do lowmax this morning and work abs. Feeling great. No more problems..so far..sooooo good!!!;)
 
Yay Char for no pain! Enjoy Low Max- I always get a great calorie burn with it even though it isn't my favorite workout.

Diane Sue: I hate it when I over sleep- makes the whole day start off on the wrong foot.

Debbie: Oh you make me want a TM with all of your CC talk! Ours is broken and I have pestered DH on and off to either buy a new one or fix ours. Le sigh. If only I were rich... :)

Where the heck are the carpet guys? Wouldn't you know, I'm ready on time and THEY aren't. Humph.
 
Hey Patti! I am looking to get more of a calorie burn today and "juice" the legs up some too while doing so. Still trying to ease my way back in. I just never want to feel that way again...made me feel so damn old. I was thinking this is what it must feel like to 100??? LMAO! I am 18 today though.;)
 
I’m Back! :D

I HAD to take Tuesday off, ;) We partied wayyyyyyy:eek: to much. Had a Blast I will check back soon, I missed, you guys:)

Diane Sue - Sorry your alarm didn't go off. I hate when that happens. And also I hate when I forgot to set my coffee pot up. Man, look out! I need my caffeine and when it's not ready I am mad! LOL!

Teddygirl - UPDATE GIRL!!!! :eek:
 
Patti...Thanks.
Diane Sue...Sorry your day started out bad. :(
Teddy..Can't wait to hear about all the fun!

Yesterday I did 4 sets/6 reps each of chin-ups..UNASSISTED! I was jazzed! Now if I could only do that many pull-ups!
 
Debbie, I need my coffee in the mornings otherwise I am stumbling around half asleep. I ended up stopping and buying a cup of coffee between dropping the grandchildren off at their schools.

Charlotte, glad you are getting back to normal again. That is the way I felt with the knee issue I was having.

Sonya, wow on the unassisted chin ups. Great job!!
 
DianeSue - Sorry you had such a rough start. Few weeks ago I woke up and my coffeemaker had died. Now that was a lousy morning!:p

Sonya - Way to go on the chins!

Today was leg day for Cardioacceleration Rotation. I changed up the exercise a bit because they called for dumbbells and I just can't go heavy enough so used my barbell. Nice thing was I didn't have to work hard during the 1 minute cardio breaks to keep my heart rate during the first half. Down side made the leg exercise a little hard because the legs were tired and I was breathing hard.

Did first 10 minutes of 4DS HIS, then one minute cardio between sets running around my workout room or on the TM.

Sonya, congrats on those chin ups! Awesome job!

Diane Sue, I so hear you on the coffee...it's really hard for me to get work done without a couple cups of coffee. I think it's part psychological. Coffee has been such a part of my college life that I need it to feel "right" when I'm grading or working on my dissertation.

Yesterday's workout was shoulders, back, and chest from 4DS. I used 15# dumbbells for the first time on chest flies. I know that's light for you ladies, but I was pretty pleased...I can distinctly remember in the past thinking that if I ever used that weight for flys my arms would snap off.

For today, I've been way tired ever since I got home. I took a nap, cut sadly short by my kitty agitating for her dinner. Workout was Tracey Staehle's Glute Camp. I did some extra abs on my own during her last inner thigh exercise as I don't particularly care for that one.
ok, nighty night.
