Hot 40's - week of 7/17/11

Murphy

Cathlete
It is supposed to be hot this week in the northeast so I thought I would use that title. Just completed CCC. I always think it is easy - until I get to the ab section with the jump at the end. After that, I am a little slower to move. I skipped one part and substituted in another but otherwise made it through. Yeah.

Anyone else loving the pic's from the new dvd's? Checking every day or is it just me? Rereading some or is it just me? I'm lovin Lorraine's new do. It really looks nice on her.

Good Morning,

It is hot again here today so won't be doing much. I need to do abs, cardio and a stretch.

Murphy-I am really excited for the new workouts.
 
Does anyone have a spin bike? I am thinking about getting one thanks - Cathe! I have done spinning classes and I like them but have not had the space for it. I do know, but can I really justify buying one? No, but I am sure I will figure it out. :)
 
Just finished DM, one of my favorites. I have not done this one in a long time. I forgot how it really works me. I need to do B&G, I have not done that in a long time too. I have been avoiding all of those lunges!
 
Hi everyone

Yes, Murphy, I'm looking forward to the new series - need some inspiration. The pics look great. I don't have a spin bike so won't be getting that DVD. I really like DM but it is so tough. Sounds like you're back on the exercise bandwagon again.

Yesterday I did Circuit Blast and today was TA Mat (just legs) and Stab Ball abs from Ab Circuits. Can't do those one-legged pikes!
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is KCMs TLC Boxing. I am going to try and get more cardio in this week and watch what I eat and see what kind of results I get.

Murphy-good job with your workout. I have never done that one all the way through.

Ronne-good job with your workout.
 
Good morning! Did CTX KB this morning, before it gets really hot! Murphy, you have been a machine! We were going to buy a spin bike, but now with the air/furnace issue....no spin bike! Sometimes, I don't like being a grown up! I am really excited about the new dvd's! But where is Cedie? Roxie, let us know how your challenge for yourself works out! I need some direction! Ronne, how was date night? Lisa, where are you? Well, have to go get DS from "book club". Have a good day! Mary
 
I'm here! Monday morning work started with a bang, been triple and quadruple booked with things. Gave some stuff to co-workers, but that sometimes is more work in the end too because they still need my input, but in the end it does save me time.

My post from Sunday got lost too. So, my big news, I LOST a POUND! this watching what I'm eating (and eating less--like 1/2 as much as I normally would have as a morning/afternoon snack) and my extra walking (about 3-4 miles a day) is helping!

Sunday, I did DM (my knees are hurting now, especially my left which is weird), and today Step Moves. My lower joints are asking for a break so tomorrow is UB.

Murphy, I'm ready for the new workouts and so are my joints!

Roxie, MAN OH MAN, is it hot where you are! My poor DH is in Omaha on business, 100s, wow! It's a hot week here too.

Ronne, I can't do those one legged pikes either! In fact, the 1 legged squat thrusts from plyo are hard too (better on my right then my left). Did you have a good weekend? Wasn't there something going on with DD?

Mary, I have a spin bike, I HATE (and I mean HATE) biking. Hoping Cathe makes it more fun. "Book club" is too funny!

Well, back to work, I guess this week is going to be a busy week.
 
Lisa-its 100 right now with a heat index of 102 and its only 2:00pm. By the time I get off work it will be even hotter.
 
Lisa-update its 102 with a heat index of 104 degrees at 3:00pm I am so tired of this heat its getting ridiculous.
 
Roxie, I can hear you saying....' I'm MELTING ' ! Let's hope we (especially you and DH) survive the heat this week and then it starts cooling off, it's getting ridiculous!
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did KCMs TLC Boxing and then TJ Standing Abs.

Lisa-I am melting hate to even leave work the car is so hot and working out is really hot even with air conditioning.
 
I got up late so I did some ab work. It was not much, but I got somethng in.
I agree with everyone about the heat. I work out in the am and it has been "warm" these last few mornings. I wonder what August will hold in store for us. Wasn't the fall season warm last year?
 
I slept in too, so hoping to do just the weight portion of 4DS Back/Bi this evening when I get home. I figure I'll have to take another shower no matter what so I'll get a little workout in.

Murphy, I can't remember yesterday so certainly can't remember last fall !
 
Wow, it's been busy - I can't keep up!

Sounds like you're all still suffering in the heat, especially Roxie! I wish we could have some of your temperatures here!

Murphy - glad to hear you've had a lighter day, superwoman!

Lisa/Mary - had a lovely evening out with DH. We went to a new pub for dinner which was delicious and then to a wine bar. DD's away this weekend as well so we're going out again!!

SM for me today. Couldn't imagine doing that in 100 degrees!
 
Hi girls, challenging day here. Horribly humid, crazy storms last night. The basement flooded, guess I found my activity for the day? I am afraid to begin to see all that is lost. All the kids projects and such, so many books. Well, I just need to get to it. Did LL this am, haven't stopped sweating yet. My workout area isn't air conditioned, we are still waiting for more quotes. I'm sorry to be so whiny! Ronne, yeah! Another date night! Roxie, don't melt! Murphy, you needed a bit of a rest! Hope everyone has a good day, I am going to the dungeon! Mary
 
Good Morning expecting another hot day. I wanted to get up to workout just not sleeping very well think I have restless leg syndrome. Tonite for me is KCMs Split Sessions Upper Body.

Mary sorry to hear about your basement flooding.
 
Ronne, aren't date nights lovely? Even with DS being 19 he still crimps our style since he's home for the summer. Here the kid is in college and I still look forward to school starting :)

Mary, Oh no! Everything is hitting you at the moment it seems....a/c, basement flood. Remember this too shall pass!

Roxie, I saw on the news here where they put big blocks of ice in the pools in Omaha to try to cool them down, the water temp was 90!

Lisa-that would not surprise me at all. I plan on going to the pool this weekend need some sun but don't want to heat stroke.
