Pentagenarians & Beyond: {Wednesday}

[fox2star]

Good morning!

Today I did Gym Styles, BAck,Shoulders & Biceps. I like these workouts a lot.

Jen:
Hope you are feeling better... I agree, airplanes are full of germs that just keep getting rotated around! yukx(

Josie:
You are so lucky to have a place at work to do your running!

Garance:
That was a total body workout? how long is it? are mixes chapters or do you do the whole thing at once? I decided I was not going to continue to watch Dance Wars. It really is not the kind of dancing I like to see.. I like it as part of a dance show, but not the whole thing. I am looking foward to Dancing with the Stars starting again in March. I'm with you on the casinos. WE have 2 here and I have not been in either one.

Linny:
Oh no! that must have hurt! Let us know what the DR says.

Have a great day!

Hi Deb and later posters--

Today I did Leslie Sansone's 4 mile walk again. I turned off her voice, and it was a lot better. This is a very good workout if you go all out on the intervals.

Jen, the Jari Love Get Chiseled and Ripped is 60 minutes long and there are no abs. There are, however, several shorter premixes, and the whole thing is very well chaptered to pick and choose from. She also shows several variations in terms of weights and form, depending on how advanced you are. All I have to say is I am definitely feeling DOMS in my triceps, shoulders, chest, and biceps. Not so much my legs because I am a shallow squatter and lunger, given all my knee issues--not to be read as I'm a shallow person who squats and lunges (just noticed the potential ambiguity there!)

I love the Gym Styles upper body DVDs and have done them a lot.

Linny, it really sounds like a scratched cornea. You need some numbing and antibiotic drops. DH had this happen to him last year when he was pruning our wisteria and it snapped in his eye. It's really painful. I knew what he had done immediately because it happened to me ages ago when I was in Spain.

Anyone tuning in to American Idol?

Sorry--I meant Deb on my Jari Love review.

Happy Wednesday, All,

The cold has a tight grip on me - I couldn't even bring myself to do the Classicall Stretch DVD yesterday. I will try again today since it's my day off, so I'm not as tired.

Linny, get to a doctor, Girl! Don't mess around with your eyes! (I'm blind in one eye, so a little obsessive about this issue).

No, the grandbabies don't appear on a schedule - both my kids live close by and they love to come over when they can. We love having them, too, but sometimes it gets to be a bit much, since both DH and I work full-time. He keeps threatening to tell them not to come until I finish working out in the early evening, but the grandbabies are so young still that they have early bedtimes, so I told him not to. I keep telling myself that they won't be little long and the time will come when they'll be too busy for their Granny most of the time. I'm also flattered that DS, DD, SIL, and DIL want to spend so much time with us.

Have a wonderful day,
Jen

Hi Ladies:
Well I'm glad I got to the doctor.Md saw corneal abrasions. He said I had quite a few,and it must of hurt like h*ll.For it to happen 24 hrs before and him still seeing that much damage,I whacked it a good one.Put in some antibiotic drops and gave me some preservative free eye drops.Feel much better.
Deb:I don't have any of Cathes Gym Styles.But if I ever do get any it would be the back,shoulder one.Those are my favorite areas to train.
Garance:I was on Amazon last night and noticed Leslie has alot of walking dvds.I never did a walking dvd,do you get a good workout?
Jen: I am soooo jealous. I wish my grandchildren lived closer. My DS only has his daughter every other weekend so thats the only time I get to see her.If something is going on for me that weekend than I may only see her once a month. My other granddaughter lives a little closer but still an hour drive away and she sees her father everyother weekend. :-( You must a be a wonderful person for them to want to spend that much time with you.
Josie: You also are making jealous.Being able to workout outside.It was in the 20's today.BBBRRRR!!!
Have a great night ladies~Linny~
