Hi Thea -- Jazzercise is an great cardio workout and it's up to you to make it either high-impact or low-impact. I went to Jazzercise for 11 years ('80's through the mid-90's) and I credit Jazzercise with taking me from thin but sedentary to very heart-fit. My first class I thought I'd...

Hi All -- Posting from work, so this will be short. Did Vol. 5 last night along with some Yoga stretches. Really working on abs, sometimes mine have a tendency to "pooch" out even though I'm thin. Hope eveyone is doing well. Juli

Happy Labor Day, Ladies! I was good about my workouts over the weekend. It's hard to work out on a holiday weekend, but it's been overcast so I did half of Vol.3 and some abs on Saturday and Yoga for Flexibility and abs on Sunday. I'm a few days from TTOM and Vol.3 was very hard for me...

Hi Everyone -- It's a hot sticky day in Cincinnati. We've had such a beautiful summer up until now that I forgot how thick the air can get. Luckily, we're due for storms so it will all go away. Last night was Date Night with my DH (every Wednesday). My friend had given me a generous...

I used to paint when I was much younger but now my main creative hobby is sewing and quilting. I make about 1 (large) quilt a year, mainly through the winter months. In the summer, I play golf. I am also very fond of making costumes and I've done several for the church. Juli

Hi Ladies -- Goldengirl -- Take care of that back!!! The spine supports everything and when it's not well, nothing's well. Hope you feel better soon. Usually Monday night is a w.o. night, but yesterday I had two friends that needed listening to. It wasn't planned but it was the more...

Hi All -- It'a been another AWESOME weekend (weatherwise) in Cincinnati. I can't remember a summer this beautiful in at least 10 years. Since it was so beautiful, I walked Sharon Woods with my DH and then we played nine holes of golf. I'm terrible but so what. We still had a great time...

Hi Ladies -- Yesterday was a rest day for me. My DH was out of town (went to Boston) so we didn't get our date night. Tonight I was tired so I did "I want Those Abs" followed by PM Yoga. I've had early morning meetings this a.m. so I didn't get quite enough sleep. Hitting the sack early...

Hi LA -- It's such a pleasure to meet you!!! Welcome to our little group! I looked at your workouts and they look like mine -- work on all the aspects of fitness -- a little cardio/a little strength/a little flexibility. it's a really balanced and good mix. As soon as you mentioned...

Did Yoga for Flexibility tonight. I like the Forward Bend workout best. Been really busy at work, but that's a very good thing. Hope everyone is well. Juli

Hi All -- Since I didn't see a topic for this week, I'm taking the liberty of starting one. My topic is "Under Construction" As a salesperson, I frequently read motivational/instructional material. I recently read "If You're Not Out Selling, You're Being Outsold" by Rick Page. There are...

RE: WOW Juli! Hi Robyn - I love STOMP!!! Saw it a few years ago when it was in town. Lots of energy. It's one of my all-time favorites. Well, I hit my goal today. I finished both of the dresses for the flower girls and they turned out great. I had my doubts in the beginning but they...

RE: Hey Juli! Hi Debbie -- You're going to have a great time in Vegas! If you plan to hit the Strip, Harrah's is a lot of fun. The slots are looser than a lot of other places. I didn't hit any big jackpots, but I won $40 twice so my DH and I were able to play for hours. Also, the...

Hi Ladies -- I'm BAAAAAACK! Vegas was great (and very HOT). We walked everywhere; I estimate we walked at least 10 miles a day so I didn't worry about getting my exercise (at least the cardio part). I'm supposed to be on vacation today as well, but it's not turning out that way. I'm...

Hi All-- I'm getting in one last post before I head out to Vegas tomorrow. Still got my workouts in this week. Did Vol.3 yesterday. I've been sewing myself silly on the flower girls' dresses. Have one finished and the other half-way finished. That filmy netting over the skirt part is a...

Hi All -- What a hectic week it's been! I got the shock of my life the other night. I had promised to make the dress for the flower girl for my friend's daughter's wedding. Last I had heard, it was going to be in October. Earlier this week, I found out that the wedding is September 5th...

Hi Girls - Yesterday was my weekly Date Night with my DH so no w.o. for me. Probably not tonight, either, because we have out-of-town guests visiting. Probably get some exercise tomorrow but not sure what. Work is super hectic (Robyn, I think of you. I think we're in the same industry...

I agree with FS, WE"RE ALL SICKOs!!! I like the feeling of knowing that I've challenged my body. Had to hit the grocery tonight so I only had time for a short yoga tape (PM Yoga). Good news! Peaches is getting better. I looked in her ears today and they are finally getting pink again...

Donna -- My heart goes out to you! Only fit people understand what a priority working out can be. I want to encourage you to keep checking in with your "fitness pals" here in the forum for support. A few years ago I had to have my appendix taken out. I had something called "chronic...

Hi Ladies -- Just a quick post before I head off to work. The weather has been gorgeous here, so Monday I walked Sharon Woods for my w.o. and yesterday I did my Yoga Zone tape. Over the weekend my husband and I went to a concert in Youngstown, Ohio. We met some of his college buds and...
