Good Morning!

Today I did Gym Style Chest & Triceps.. Wowza! those push ups are a killer . I did them on my knees, I can;t even do 5 "real" push ups.. but I did all the sets..so I felt pretty good about that. What are there about a thousand? LOL :7

Garance:
I hear you on those types of workouts.. If I have to modify so much that I feel like all I am thinking about is how to modify, I won;t do the workout.. it is depressing.

Jen, Linny, Josie and all:

Have a great start to the week!

Deb ;-)
 
Heavy sighs. After a week of 4 a.m. workouts, I gave it up. I was only getting 3-4 hours of sleep - there's just too much going on at home to get to bed at a decent hour. It really caught up with me this weekend when I had things to do both days and had to get up at a reasonable hour. I also had to go so much lighter on weights that I don't think the tradeoff is worth it. I definitely won't get in a workout every day, but on days when people are at my house when I get home, I'll just play with and chase grandbabies and hope for the best. I'm pretty bummed about this, but, short of winning the lottery, quitting work, and working out in the middle of the day, I haven't figured out the answer!

Have a wonderful day,
Jen
 
Hi Deb and Jen--

I did my new Petra Kolber step tape--New Grooves. 53 minutes of low impact stepping. A little challenging on the choreography, but I'm sure I will get it. Strictly intermediate and right for me.

I can only do those pushups on my knees, too, Deb.

Jen, don't feel bad. I can get up at 6:15, but 4 A.M.--no way. I'd be a zombie if I tried. I'm just lucky that my work permits me to control my time as it does.

Tomorrow, I will try the last of my new DVDs--Jari Love's Ripped and Chiseled. Looks like a high rep, low weight routine.

Used my Zappos gift certificate to buy Onex Wendy in white (for summer), and Clarks Ice in blue for winter weather.

The snow here really fizzled out. Just a bit more than a dusting.
 
Hi Ladies,

I only ended up doing 6 miles on Saturday and did nothing on Sunday.

I went to see my mom on Saturday and we went to the casino and stayed there until 12:30 and I spent the night with her. We had fun, but did not win any money.

Today will be PUB when I get home.

Have a great day.

Josie
 
Hi Ladies:
I'm SO glad I have 4-wheel drive today!
Garance: We got about 8 inches of snow. The CRV didn't seem to have a problem handling snow. It automatically goes into 4 wheel drive when tires start to slip. Went and saw The Bucket List with Jack Nicholson. Boy is he getting old.Movie wasn't as funny as I thought it would be.
Deb: Pushups are my least favorite exercise.In fact any chest exercise is my least. I think it my have something to do the soreness the day later. Not sure if its muscle soreness or the Big One;-)
Jen:I give you alot of credit getting up at 4am. I get up at 5:30am and quite early enough for me. At least you gave it a try.
Josie; Did you go to Vegas to gamble? My brother lives in Huntington and takes my parents gambling there once in a while.Glad you had a good time with your Mom.

Linny,

We don't have to go to Las Vegas anymore. There is plenty of Indian casinos here in California. I went to a place calle Morongo near Palm Springs. My mom lives half way to the casino.

I love going to Vegas and my DH and I go there at least 3 times per year.
