Good morning girls,

I never got my workout in yesterday:confused: I will do cardio and a full body workout. I have no time for personals, will try to catch up. This time of the year is just soooo busy and crazy!

I will be back to report my workout!
 
Hi Girls!

So excited about Shock Cardio coming!!! It will be fun to throw in a few of them in the next 2-3 weeks in Meso 3!

Today I do DISC 30, Shoulders Triceps and Biceps. I know it's going to be tough!

Trying to start a bit early. Another busy day today. The worst thing about busy is , that time flies WAY too fast, and I just don't get things done.

BBL!
 
TGIF! Wow, my legs are talking to me today after doing PLB yesterday. I really think watching myself and not the TV screen made such a difference. I'm usually not this sore from that workout. Today is usually my rest day, but I doubt I'll be able to get a workout in tomorrow, so I may try to make it to a spin class after work. It's a shorter one, but more intense. It'll depend on how my legs feel though. I need to do some abs too.
 
Good Morning,

Today was suppose to be KM timesaver but I didn't sleep well again last night so I couldn't get up and I know I won't get it done tonite babysitting my 1 year old nephew.

Heather-you are a workout maniac.
 
Hallo ladies,

I am done with BB SS premix #1 “ 2 Rounds : 3 Cycles” 72 min. Had a great workout.

Chris, I can’t wait to get my hands on shock cardio. Have fun with D30 today.

Heather, wtg on your leg DOMS! Enjoy your spin class.

Roxie, hope you get your workout in today.

Getting ready for a Christmas party.

Hi to everyone that follows! BBL, I hope!:rolleyes:
 
Today was P90X Legs and Back. Had an excellent workout. I increased my weights on all the exercises I used weights in. However, with back I used my bands. I'm getting burned out with all those pullups plus I don't think it's necessary to do so many twice a week. I got an excellent burn in my back using all three bands that came in my Golds Gym set. So I'm happy with the way that felt.

Balance Lunge (BSS) - 15's/25 reps each side
Calf-Raise Squats - 15's/25 reps
Reverse Grip Chinups - All Bands/15 reps

Super Skaters - 25 each side (this time the leg that was off the floor never touched the floor unless I lost my balance.)
Wall Squats - an eternity at high and low levels, did these on the stability ball. I really felt these today for some odd reason.
Wide Front Pullups - All Bands/17 reps

Step Back Lunges - 15's/15 reps each side
Alternate Side Lunges - 10's/24 reps alternating
Close Grip Overhand Pullups - All Bands/17 reps

Single Leg Wall Squats - 1 minute total, 10 second holds each side alternating, used stability ball. These hurt today.
Deadlift Squats - 20/side (again, didn't touch the floor unless I lost my balance)
Switch Grip Pullups - All Bands/total of 20 - did 2 pulls overhand, two pulls underhand and kept switching.

1 minute break

Three-Way Lunge w/kick - 5 each side going side, 45 degree, front, with leg lift or kick.
Sneaky Lunges - 20 each side
Reverse Grip Chinups - All Bands/15 reps

Chair Salutations - 2 - 30 second chair poses (burned like a mother)
Toe-Roll Iso Lunges - 8's/20 each side (last week I didn't use a weight)
Wide Front Pullups - All Bands/12 reps

Groucho Walk - 4 up, 4 back for 45 seconds
Calf Raises - 20's/did 15 reps slow, 10 reps fast with feet turned out, front and in.
Close Grip Overhand Pullups - All Bands/12 reps

80-20 Sieber Speed Squats - 30 a side (I liked these)
Switch Grip Pullups - All bands/10 sets of 3 pulls. At this point my back was toast.

Back is ok today, still a bit of a pinch on the right side but it's not bad and didn't bother me with my workout.

I may have to go get blood taken for some tests tomorrow morning so I may end up doing Kenpo X Sunday instead. I can't eat before they take my blood. I'll see if I can get in tomorrow.
 
Hey Debbie... a quickie question for you. Do you think P90X was a good shake up after STS or do you think there's a lot of similiarities? I'm thinking about what to do in 3 weeks, when I'm done with STS. It's either going to be P90X or maybe a month of leaning heavier on the cardio (probably Cathe's JAN 10 Rotation, she usually does after the holidays).

What do you think?
 
Belinda - enjoy your party!

Roxie - hope you're able to get the workout in. If not, you got your pushups done!

Chris - hope your workout was a good one.

Debbie - glad you had a good workout too! Sounds like you're really enjoying P90X.

Hi to Nora and Wendy!!!!

Heather-I have 50 crunches done to.
 
Hi girls -

Did 5.5 miles on the TM today. Loving getting back into running - my thighs need it!
Have a great weekend everyone. Sorry no personals. Hugs to all!
 
Hi girls!:)

I'm so excited that I got my shipping notice that my Shock Cardio has now been shipped and is on its way to me. Its supposed to be here on or about December 29th:eek::D I can't wait!! I did pre-order Tracey Staehle Cardio Kickbox Challenge! Lots more good stuff to look forward too!

here's today's workout for me:

P90X Legs & Back= 59 Min
Calories burned= 483
I keep forgetting to write down what I did. I wish there was a worksheet with all this on it so I could just fill in the blanks for weights, reps etc.. Oh well, I did do the workout. I did use bands when doing pullups and chinups. Wall squats burned, yikes!! I did pretty much the number of reps for the most part with those on the DVD. When there were weights used I used #20 and did the number of reps they did. I lifted heavier than Dreya. LOL!! I really like this workout my only thing is I always want more legwork and back work. Back work that doesn't require bands or pullups or chinups. I can't do a pullup or a chinup to save my life. LOL!! I know, its room for improvement and a good goal to make a change. I'm trying but I need to get more upper body strength first so I can do a pullup or a chinup first. Ugh! I have work to do.:p

P90X Ab RipperX= 16 min
Calories burned= 98
Still having issues with a couple of the ab moves in this. My lower back, in particular my tail bone hurts when I do these, so I substitute them with something I can do that works those muscles without pain. I'm trying to keep doing the abs even if I have to substitute on a couple of them. Its a killer ab workout. I do like it!;)

And just because I'm a workout-a-holic I wanted to get a good even burn in my legs so I added this:
Legs & Glutes- Floor work Only= 11 Min
Calories burned= 60
I used 2.5lbs ankle weights and a high step with three risers. This was a short add-on to my workout but man does it even pack a punch, I love that!

Total calories burned from today's workout= 641

Chris- Great job on STS Meso 3 Disc 30 Shoulders, Bi's, and Tri's. STS is so awesome and always delivers a great workout. I know I'm soo glad I got it, its a keeper!

Heather- Wow! It sounds like a great workout tip you've stumbled on to there with not watching the dvd so closely since you know it and focus on your form. PLB is a toughie, so high fives to you. I can understand if you didn't workout today. If you did make it to the shorter spin class, bonus high fives and hugs to you! ;)

Roxie- You're busy, it happens. Great job on getting in the crunches and pushups!;) I hope you get a good nights sleep and feel awesome tomorrow.

Belinda-WTG on your workout today!! Have a great time at your party!;):D

Debbie- Hey, we both did the same P90X workout today:cool: I agree about thinking it was a bit overkill on all the pullups and stuff. I know its an area I need to work on, but still that's a lot!

Wendy- Bravo! 5.5 Miles today on the TM, that's so awesome WTG!!! :eek:

Ok, that's it for me girls. I think I'll figure out something clean to eat for a late dinner.

Hugs to everyone!;):):cool:
