Hardcore Fitness Maniacs 9/21/07Fri

Fridays are my rest days.

Great workout, Diane Sue! What, to you, is the toughest interval in Imax 3? For me, it's the back-to-back-to back punishment of intervasl 4-6 but if I had to choose one, I'd say interval 4. I do think interval 1 is pretty tough, considering it's the first one out of the gate.

Which brand of weighted gloves do you have (and where did you purchase them)? I got a great pair at TJ Maxx, but the speed of the punches in some kickboxing workouts has really done a number on them and the velcro on my gloves is totally shot. I've even repaired (sewn) them a few times, but they keep coming apart.

I'm in need of a new pair that are comfortable, and that will stay in place. Wrist weights move around too much and I don't really care for them during kickboxing workouts.

Have a great day, Maniacs!!
 
Morning Maniacs! Todays plan is a TT workout, HIIT and hopefully another bike ride.

Diane Sue Seems you're up early this morning.:) Great workout!

Maricia Didn't get to watch all of "The man who knows to much" so can't comment really. I do know it's the Doris Day version.
I bought my 2 lb.weighted gloves as TJ too. I like them better than the original 1 lb beachbody gloves (to small). But, it looks like the new beachbody gloves are the same as my TJ gloves, but a lb. lighter.

Hey to all you sleeper inners!

Marcia, I bought my weighted gloves at Target. I don't think they have them there anymore. I get them so sweaty and keep washing them. I need a new pair. I was looking at some new Reebok wrist weights with a thumbhole at Target and wondered if they would work. Been thinking of trying them. I think interval 4 and the interval I think it is 7 that is the jacks on and off the bench are the hardest. I use an 8 inch step on 1 and 8-10 but keep it at 6 for the rest.

Dallys, I get up before 5 to do my cardio on the days I take my granddaughters to school:) Gets me moving more quickly. No sitting on the computer with coffee as soon as I get up LOL

Good Morning Maniacs!!!

My thumb is killing me this morning..jammed long nail while doing housework..ouchy!

Have today off and then tomorrow going to brother's wedding. His beloved sprained her ankle badly and will be wobbling down the aisle. :p I am glad it wasn't worse.

Today gonna do arms as I unexpectedly was called in to work yesterday and it messed up my schedule. Seriously considering quitting my job as I have a hard time keeping up with everything even though I do like my job.
 
Diane Sue and Dallys - thanks for the info re the gloves. I, too, saw the wrist gloves with the thumb lock at Target. I still worry about movement and slippage, that's why I like the TJ Maxx kind, but the stupid velcro just won't hold. Oh well.

Toasty - I can't believe the bride will have to hobble. Poor lady!!!
 
Good Morning girlies:)
I am going to torture myself with gym style legs even though my legs are fried!}( I am off today Yeah!

Good morning

Dallys--yep, I'm one of the sleeper inners}:p

Char--those nails are certainly giving you trouble. LOL:+

DS--If I was ever up at 5am my husband would have a heart attack!

I'm back to weights today....going well...but I'm ready for this rotation to be OVER:eek:

HAVE A GREAT DAY
 
I finished up my workout. I started with Pyramid abs using a med ball for some moves instead of the stability ball, then Body Max 2 abs adding weight, finished with Absolute KB abs segment, then I did Eoin Finn's yoga quickie and used my foam roller some.

Charlotte, I used to get my nails done all of the time and they would get caught and broke off when lifting weights, and I would jam them, even clawed myself a few times. During Kickbox I would clench my hands and have nail marks. I hated them but DH likes it when I get them. They do look nice.

Marcia, I once bought a yoga dvd with Rodney Yee that had weighted gloves just for the gloves. They were pull on gloves, but for me they did not work because once I got my hand into one I thought I was going to have to have someone cut it off. DH and son were here laughing at me:)

Just finished GS Legs. Started with the floorwork then standing just to change things up a little:) Managed to get through it even though my legs were shaking the whole timex(
Have a great day :)

Lisa, I doubt my dh even notices when I am up that early :) He is uually in a lot deeper sleep than I am. I like really early in the morning. It has always been a time to be by myself. Then I like the cool air and silence when I go outside early.

Lora, don't know what happened today. My guess is you were short on time getting that workout in and going to work. Hope everything is ok.

Where is Meaghan? Haven't seen her lately either.
