Morning All!
I know! Those nasty ellipticals that depend on your own leg power?? They are horrid beasts, I would never, ever be able to do a workout on one of those. Seriously? You have to drop a few bucks to get a good quality elliptical if you want to actually enjoy using it! I love the ones they have at the little gym here, they are awesome, they go up to level 42!
I can get it up there when I am doing CC7 though, thanks to our Barry White of fitness, Coach Sean.
I heart his voice I do....
Deb, that is the one thing I do not like about the Extreme Cardio Kettlebell workout, there isn't a warm-up, so I kinda jump around and do stuff for a few before starting. I thought Laurens was easier than the Extreme, she at least lets you rest a minute between sets, this dude does not.Her warm-up is kinda lame too, I know what you mean. I got Providence and Newport yesterday..want to try the Newport one, but my lower back is really talkin to me this morning!
Shellers, so you likey the kettlebells? Or is the jury still out?? I think I started falling in love after the second workout, its just such a great overall body thing. I love the Squeeze workout as an "extra", since I am kettlebelling this week, thought I would toss it in, my triceps always get sore after this one. Plus I love Tracey and her curves! She's an awesome babe. You really should try this one, the stretches are great too.
Allison, isn't it weird how some cardio machines just "fit" your body? The treadmill at the gym here is soooo much better than mine at home, I have been tempted to ask them to sell it to me or trade! I can move better on it for some reason, its strange. Sorry bout your cell, I hate it when I don't have mine on me, I never really use it, but its like security. Your dinner sounded fabulously delicious! How nice you have a boyfriend that can cook!
Shannon, so what are we gonna do with that hair chica? I only wish I had dark luscious curls, you and Breckie are lucky girls.Go ahead and use a little gel, I promise it will change your life! *crosses fingers and toes* sounds like Mr. Interview Man really liked you!!
Well, of course he did.
Kristi, LOL at the "dreaded song" gosh, for the life of me I do not know which one that is?? I do know there is one that goes something like, "I feel blind with all the things you say, blah, blah, blah, some dude sings it and I despise! I prefer my music electronic/house beat and sound, it gets and keeps me moving, which is why I love itrain #3...in phase 2 or 3 there is this awesome song that totally energizes me, no vocals, just this pounding beat.
BG, I emailed ya girl. How was breakfast?
OOPS, you better already be on meal number 3 sista!
I miss our RT'ers already, but know they are flying for hours so that makes me feel better, I do so hate to fly, I get all cramped up and get antsy.
Today's workout? Hum, thought about trying the Newport, but think I might go to the gym and do CC7 (my favorite CC ever) on the elliptical (the fabulous elliptical) and then the kettlebell later on, my lower back is jacked up again, so need to kinda be mindful. I have arthritis in my low back, did I tell you guys that? No? Oh good, cause know I get all of your sympathies.
So time to ibuprofen and get movin'...
