40's- Resolutions

Hi girls! I channeled Murphy and did bi's and tri's, I think I have to go heavier next time, I felt like I had little baby weights and they were lifting these enormous ones! Murphy, I like the shorts too, didn't much care for the keyhole shirts in the bi/tri workout tho. Lisa, Nordstrom, I just saw a news special on them recently. They talked about their customer service focus and professionalism. Still so hard to believe, she wasn't with a customer, very confusing. I have been known to drop that word on occasion! Sometimes it's the only word that works! My kids use the word "fluff". As in "I fluffing love you!"" makes me laugh every time! Jody, wow! You are going to be busy! How long is the program? Roxie, isn't it easy to piddle a day away? I lose time constantly! Well, got all the online classes done, have to take a math test on tuesday, I have to review some of the formulas, it's been awhile since I had to take a math test! Have a good day! Mary
 
shoulders and step done, I think the RS+ dvd is mastered as far as choreography.
Mary, program is 2 years. Mothers are always busy anyway, I'm just shifting into other stuff, hopefully, and making kids take on more. Good luck with math test and yea for finishing up online classes. I'm weird in that I like math and I like tests. : )
Grateful for two things today, 1. kitty didn't wake me up once with her yowling last night and 2. she didn't throw up on carpet the other day. And why do we have pets??? Oh right, they bring us so much happiness.
waves to all
 
Good Afternoon,

I am so glad I am leaving at 2 the boss lady seems to be in a mood but her husband is and idiot so I can see why. I will do KCM KBXing today when I get home.

Mary-I am hoping to get focused today and get some stuff done and it would help if I would just not turn on the tv when I get home it sidetracks me.

Murphy-good job with your workouts. The one thing I noticed about the shorts is that on Cathe and Marlo they seem to be just a little to short butt cheeks are hanging out on the supermans.

Jody-sounds like you are going to be busy.
 
Finally checking in, I was just a lazy butt all day. I finally did Xtrain Ch/Sh/Ba round 5-8 (not sure I like this one as well as the Bi/Tri....must be the pushups and t's and y's). I took it easy too because my neck has been bothering me for a while and interfering with my sleep (I think I pulled something on the BS CH one and T's and Y's always bother me). I added on Core#2, has anyone done this? I can't believe no one has said anything about this one. starts out with 60 crunch, 60 reverse crunch, 60 something else, 60 something else. either I'm out of shape or it's tough!

Roxie, I find it takes me longer to do things. Most of it may be from a retirement state of mind, I'm in no hurry to get to anything, I like the laid back approach.

Jody, I've told DH I miss our dog and cat I want another....then I think it through and say, well, I'll have another just like Maddy and Yoshi, then I think it through more and say, I'll have another just like Maddy (but where she doesn't bark at everything and the fur stays on her and she picks up her own poop) and another just like Yoshi (but where she changes her own litter box, the fur stays on her)....i'm sure there is more to add but you get the point. I resist because it's so much easier cleaning and when I did walk the granddog, it was nice that I didn't HAVE to walk her everyday, but then I see those puppy dog eyes or a cute kitty and I have to slap myself back to reality.

Mary, did you lift close to Cathe's weights? I like that they told us what she uses, I wish we would know what everyone is using (sometimes you can't see the # on the weight). As far as Nordstrom, there are always those type of manager....I do have to say I'm glad I went into a mostly male dominated field, DILs seems so catty. How is it in nursing? I do also have to say that there are quite a few female mgrs I have had in the business world that seem they are out to prove something----give me a male manager anyday. Again, could be my field....in a male dominated area maybe the females that got to mgmt got there by being...ya, you know the word :)

Murphy, should we talk about the guys now in Xtrain?
 
I just did the 80 min leg premix - actually I did the "75 min" premix. I had to skip some of the floor work, I was just so tired. Plus, the kids came down and I just could not focus. I also did the 100 hip thrust challenge, but with no weights. I still felt it w/o the weights. My booty needed it. :)

I like these outfits better. They look like the usual workout outfits. I did notice that the shorts looked a little tighter. The material looked differenet too.

Lisa - I have done both core 1 and 2. Yes, they are tough. My abs need it and they are getting worked. BTW, I too like that they told us what Cathe is using - especially since the workout cards are not yet available.

Ronne - A few days ago you asked when I went back to work. I took off the days before and after Christmas. I went back the Friday and Monday before New Year.

Roxie - I noticed the butt cheeks too. LOL

Good Morning,

I did KCM KBX to make up for yesterday and then CK25 day 3 I feel very accomplished. My gs is coming over while his daddy messes with mommies car and then later we are going out to there house.
 
Hi everyone! Today did Hard Strikes, not my wisest choice! I did bis/tris yesterday, arms were sore, I think I made it worse! Haha! Roxie, have fun with that baby! So sweet! Murphy, I really like the leg workout! Even all that darn floor work! Lisa, I avoid abs! Not my favorite! I agree it is easier to work with men! When I was a staff nurse I worked in the ER, big mix of men and women, didnt get so catty! When it was mainly women it got a little ugly some days! Now, being a contract employee I don't get involved in all the day to day nonsense, I'm just a visitor, works good for me! Jody, how is Survivor Austrailia? The kids have gotten me into Big Bang Theory, cracks me up! We have gone thru 4 seasons sinc ether have been on break. Tonite dinner with friends and we are going to the casino, wish me luck! Mary
 
I did Ride today, did anyone else get that one? I'm not a spinning fan, this one seemed to work me more (ie sweat) than Cycle Max. I didn't feel any soreness in my abs today, maybe because I didn't give Core #2 my all...but I did feel them in the beginning of spinning, so I did work them a bit yesterday after all. Marlo is a bit slower than the others in this w/o too, so she doesn't make me feel as bad!

Mary, did you use any weighted gloves in Hard Strikes? You're right probably not the best after a bi/tri :)

Roxie, when are you starting xtrain?

Murphy, WOW! what a workout!

Lisa-I am starting XTrain Monday.
 
Lisa, I wore 1 lb weighted gloves, had to take them off after about 20 minutes, I was burning. DH came in, saw the pink gloves on them, started cracking up! Told me they looked ridiculous, then I started laughing and couldn't stop! Also, in the conditioning segment, I started with 5lbs, my shoulders were burning so bad I went down to 3lbs. I have a lot to work towards!
 
Mary, that sounds about how it went with me (but I kept my gloves on!) I did skip the conditioning as my UB was spent (and I had done bi/tri the day before too!) Imagine how DH would laugh if you got pink gloves (some I've read on the boards are getting them)

Roxie, oh good, you can xtrain with us, can't believe you've waited...I was an awful kid at christmas too, couldn't wait :)

Some good news...DIL has an interview at my newest favorite store...LUSH! The only bad part is it's the north end of the metro area and DS works south end (traffic between the 2 are awful), but she's so excited, and it's for a keyholder position. Her interview is Monday afternoon.
