STS first time!

[marazoe]

Happy Sunday Ladies. Today I did Pure Strength Chest,shoulders and triceps. These older w/o's are nice because Cathe does different exercises. I like that. I think I will just start mixing them up with Sts and my muscles will really be confused. My left arm is so totally weak from the shoulder injury. I am shocked. What I did today is nothing compared to STS. I feel like a child first starting out. I am thinking I need to do more legs and less upper body.

Today's movie is going to be "My Week With Marilyn".

Missy you better hope Sylverter is a he because this is kitten season. Have you considered trapping him and getting him altered? You may have a feral cat organization near you that can help you with that. Those peaches sound good. I love a really juicy peach.

Mary have fun at the volleyball tournament. I think you will enjoy having slow and heavy because they are different than STS.

Good Afternoon. I got up this morning and did my cardio!!! I have been doing Sunday chores....laundry, laundry, laundry. I also made some oatmeal choc chip cookies my my hubby. I bake a batch of cookies every sunday for him, I then put them in baggies so he can take a snack with him to work each day. He can not live without his cookies!!!! hahahaha I normally make something I don't eat, but today I was wanting a cookie. So, fresh warm cookies are the best. I ate (1).

I also worked in my garden....I cut a few more squash. I will be cooking them for dinner tomorrow.

Now, I am have B&G planned for this afternoon.

I hope everyone has a lovely day! Make sure we all plan to work our abs!!!!!

Colleen---I understand about the hormones...

Jean---I know (Sylvestor), I am not sure what it is, but...I was really close to Sylvestor this morning and I can see that he/she has (2) nipples at the bottom that look swollen and pink. I think he may be a girl...and if I end up with kittens I am in trouble. We do have a (no kill) shelter for cats here. So, if it is the case I would take the kittens there to be adopted. And, then take Sylvestor to get fixed. But, Sylvestor is now part of the family....he/she has been here for about 3 months, but I am just now being able to get close. He is trusting me now. I was able to pet him/her yesterday and today. Only if he was eating. He will not come directly to me yet. But, I am working on it. Not sure........It is a mystery!!!!!!!!!

Okay...off to vacumn. BBL!!!

I just bought the intensity series!!!!!!!!!!!

[missyt]

Good Afternoon. I just finished B&G!!! I was drenched in sweat! That is such an amazing workout!!!!

Hope everyone is having a nice day. Looks like I am the only one without a life today. hahaha I always stay home on Sunday's. It is my chore day.

Gotta Run....Be back later. We are going to the in-laws for dinner tonight. Not something I love to do...but I do it for my hubby!!!! The one thing I hate about it, is they are NOT the healthist people. My husband and I are the thinnest/healthiest in our entire family. Nobody else gives a damn. So, we are always judged!!!! But, I don't care. (dealing with family is not always the easiest thing to do...But, you gotta love em')

I will be back as soon as I can.....believe me!!!!

Congratulations on getting the Intensity series Missy! New workouts are so much fun. I can't wait to get Low Impact Circuit this week...I've been thinking about it since I ordered it! Geeky, I know!
Which reminds me, I forgot to tell you guys about the weighted vest I got. Well, it turned out to be a bust. I'm going to have to return it. The thing was HUGE on me! It said one size fits most...but I should've known it was more geared for guys since there was a big beefy guy on the box. On the plus side, my tower should be in on Wednesday! Whoo hoo! I did finally tell Mark this morning and he was totally cool about it! I love it when I catch him at just the right time...hehehehe. He's in a much better mood today!

I did Kick Max today and it was awesome! I just love kickboxing when I'm dealing with lower body DOMS. It's like the perfect workout to kick those sore muscles out!

I had a pretty productive day actually. I focused on laundry and cleaning ALL the floors in our house. It's not too often that all the floors are clean at once! Not that it'll last more than a few hours...at least I can be happy with it for now!

Good luck with the in-laws Missy! Believe me, I can sympathize with wanting to get out of there as soon as possible!!!
Have a great night everyone!

Colleen I ordered the protein powder from Amazon. I also ordered a pair of Asics womens Gel Tech Walker Neo 2 tennis shoes. The bottom of my left foot gets tingly when I walk and I also have a bunion. I read these are good for bunions. I think they have a wider foot base or something like that. I will let you know how I like the powder. I am sure it will be fine. You haven't led me astray yet. I am glad Mark was o.k. with the tower. It is smart you didn't tell him yesterday.

Missy I hope you have a good time with the in-laws even if they aren't healthy. My husbands family is overweight also. I would say when I met him that both parents and one sister were obese. My father in law passed away about 7 years ago of a heart attack. My mother in law is in a nursing home because of Parkinsons. I cannot get my husband (who is at an o.k. weight) to exercise or get a check up. But I truly love his parents. I don't know what your feelings are on this but if you trapped Syl and had him/her altered now , there would be no unwanted kittens. I am sure there are places where you live that could help with that (if you wanted to go that route). Good for you for getting the Intensity series. I don't think that is my thing but I am sure you will enjoy it. I have never heard you say there was any Cathe that you didn't like.

Good Evening. I am back.

My in-laws....well, I do love them. About, 8 years ago when we lived in Florida...Hurricane Charlie came through and wiped out everything. I actually moved in with them for 1 year, untill we moved to GA. They are truely the sweetest. I just am on my period, and get frustrated easily. They actually live next door. They are very good about not bothering us. That was the only was we would agree to livenext door to them. We did not want it to be live "Everybody loves Raymond"!!!!

She (mom) did ask me how much I have lost now and made the comment that don't you think that is enough????!!! (she is very overweight) I have told her time and time again...that I do not want to be overweight. My husabnd tends to ignore her when she makes comments...but, tonight I was so happy he actually said she is the healthist she has even been and happy. Leave her alone. She has the love for fitness and clean eating. And he continued on that "we" don't eat fried foods, sweets, etc...that is just our lifestyle. She quickly changed the subject!!! hahahaha

I am very excited to get my new DVD's...not sure where I am going to fit them in ...but I will at least have them.

Colleen---I bet your floors look good. I understand, I have a 60 pd dog inside. As soon as I clean the kitchen floor...well, the water bowl gets a little messy!!

Off to watch Army Wives!!!!

Be Back tomorrow!!!

Good Morning ladies!!! Staying up late on Sunday's, does not work for early Monday mornings! I woke up late today, but still got a 45 minute cardio session.

Now, off to work.......Chat later!

[gratefuldog]

Good morning.
No workout yesterday. We went to a fleamarket and then worked out in the yard. I took the kids and the dogs for a walk down by the lake. It wasn't a fast walk, but atleast it was something.
Back to being solo. Kids are back in school. I am headed downstairs to do B&G! I know I said I was doing STS again, but Since today is a leg day, I figured I would sub in B&G! I got such a good workout from that last week that I want to do it again. I should have gone for a run too, but I want to do that on my arm days.
Congrats on getting the intensity series Missy!! That will make a nice addition to your collection of Cathe!
Colleen, glad you told Mark about the tower before it arrived on your doorstep!
Jean, I love the older workouts of Cathe too. THose are the ones that I first started with when I started lifting consistently.
Marie I hope you are letting your mom hold the baby too! LOL!
Betty, you are getting loads of exercise with all of that walking you are doing!!
Have a blast!!
