Morning Fit Ladies -
This morning I did Butts & Gutts - Standing Glutes & Abs Premix (54"). I stopped right before the ab segment started and did a couple more sets of Firewalkers (cuz I loved those things) and then I did just part of the floor leg segment. This took about 1 hour and 5 minutes. Then I did a short 10 minute blast of aerobics (from Jari Love's Ripped 1000), cooled down on my own and then did the stretch segment of Butts & Guts (1 hour and 20 minutes). I burned a total of 400 calories from warm up to cool down.
I didn't think this premix was particularly difficult. We only did squats with weight and lunges with weight and the rest of the exercises did not use weight. I didn't even find the ab portion that difficult. I need to add weight next time. Only part that was difficult is that I kept sliding down when I was trying to do those leaning on the ball obliques holding the resistance band. I'll have to try using more weight next time. I usually gauge how much to lift from Cathe, but she doesn't seem to be lifting her usual amounts this series (did she do that for the beginner/intermediate people??).
Diane Sue - Do you think I should do both standing and lying leg work each week? If so, If I do one standing leg workout and one floor work one each week is that enough for my problem area?
I remember reading a while back about how good that exercise is for your legs that Cathe calls "Firewalkers". I used my Spri ring. I have them in several resistances. I think I might start adding them on to all of my leg workouts.....or what the heck, maybe I'll just start walking around the house like that! LOL. My DH already thinks I'm goofy.
Debbie & Meaghan - GH was good last night. Ric is really a creep....and I like when the story line involves a lot of Ric, Sonny & Jason. Ric's really gonna get it --- isn't he? Him and Alcazar both!!
Ann - Isn't the grease on white pizza - olive oil grease? Especially if you get very light cheese on it. I'll eat olive oil .....it's the only kind of grease my body can tolerate. I love white pizza and I haven't had any for a long time....now I'm craving it. Lots of hot peppers though!! I also love Pineapple pizza with double pineapple! I'm weird ...I know.
Hi to everyone else!!
My boss is off today and I made the mistake of asking her what she wants me to work on -- now I've got enough stuff to keep me busy for not one day off.........but more like a 2 week vacation!
Have great workouts and I'll be back later since the boss is away.
