MicheleZ that is one SWEET Bike. I used to ride motorcycles, I had a wee Kawasaki 500. It was fun but soon found that I didn't trust other traffic at all and gave it up. Hey, at least I did it. One of those things on my "bucket list". Now, perhaps one day, sky diving. Sister and I made it...

Woo-hoo and Yippy Skippy hooray!!! #16 and sister was #74! So excited, road trip number 2!!!!!! Yeah, baby!!! ~Renee

Started week 2 of mesocycle 2. Yesterday was Chest, shoulders and tri's. And my tri's are having super DOMS. Last week it was my chest...go figure. Today I did HiiT 30/30 and tomorrows Legs, since I will be short on time tomorrow, I doubled it up today. I am sure with some "delay" I will be...

Meso cycle 2 is leaving me totally whipped, with major doms! I like it! ;) Exercise every day. Work, work-out, karate, eat, sleep...nothing that exciting lately. Janie, you are doing fabulous with your push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups and exercise in general. Keep up the good work...

Sorry for the abscence. Busy or tired. Started mesocycle 2 of STS yesterday, then went to karate for an hour and a half. Two and half hours later (exercise) I was totally fried. I am so sore today, but as we say in karate "it's a good kind of hurt!" Well, I'll keep on telling myself that...

Its been a fairly low key Saturday. I went to karate this morning and really enjoyed the class. Working on all the basics in this rotation so next week when we work on Universal 5, things should go fairly smooth. Universal 5 is a kata or form that incorporates all the moves learned during an 8...

Today, my school system gave us a snow day! At first it was a 2 hour delay, then they closed. I guess there were still some icy roads. Its better to be safe then sorry, but I wish we had gone. My after school Orff program was supposed to start today. Oh well, such is life. My knee has been...

Yo! Yo! Yo! I just finished Mesocycle 1 of STS! Whoopee! Feels good to have that behind me. I am really looking forward to Mesocycle 2, after a nice week of active recovery that is. It's icky and cold, and snowy and, well...icky. Only 55 more days until Spring!! Can't wait, but there is so...

Today I managed to do LowMax Step combos only and STS 11. Tomorrow will be karate only. As for sparring with the green belt meanie (lol), I figured that next time I could accidentally get a low blow kick in!!! :) Any how, its better to spar with people better then you. The green belt is one belt...

Yesterday was a lot of "exercise". STS, and two karate classes. I had the pleasure of two sparring partners yesterday. One was a 3rd degree black belt, and the other was a green belt (one below blue) but both were guys. The black belt understands "light contact" while the green belt just about...

Hey! It's Friday and my rest day! Ya-hoooo! I haven't had a true rest day in some time. It's either Cathe (STS), cardio and karate, without a break. But today, neither one is on my schedule. I am very thankful for that. Tomorrow, though I do a regular karate class, a sparring class and then STS...

I am very impressed with ShadowPups weight lifting weights! Very impressive! Wish I could do all that. Maybe one day, but we are all have our own strenths and weaknesses. I have this image of ShadowPup: Laura Croft, TombRaider, the strong hero chick in the movies! LOL I am enjoying my 3 day...

Good Sunday morning all! Well, I've been babying the knee as much as possible. Feel like I could and should do more on it, BUT, I know better so...I'm not. I did STS 6 legs on Friday, and skipped some of the exercises that I felt would aggravate my knee, such as the plate lunges...they are...

Tuesday I did exactly what I said I would do...Basic Step on the platform, no risers, Stretch Max #1, and some karate (minus kicks). Yesterday was just karate. I was suppose to do STS 6 Legs. Since it seems I have a sprained right knee, specifically the MCL, I am nursing the right leg back to...

Happy Tuesday! A snow day here in Central Virginia! Hip, hip hooray! Well, I don't know what I did while doing HiiT 40/20 but Monday night I woke up feeling an awful pain in my right knee.Uh-oh! Yesterday at school, it wasn't too bad, until later in the day, my moblity was slightly limited...

Greetings and Salutations! Its the weekend...ah. Yesterday was STS disc 4, chest, shoulders and biceps. Plus I went to Sparring class at Karate. Became very frustrated since the instructor talked way too much...not enough action/practice for my liking. It wasn't the senior master, so, with...

Quick reply to Elle this morning....first of all, you are doing great with your weight lose! Does that say 19.6 pounds?!?! good for you! Push ups! Lots of women don't like those things. In my karate class, one of the fitness requirements for 1st degree black belt is 60-80 push ups in two...

Wow! There is a lot going on here, it's hard to know what to say to who. I did Step Moves this morning, finishing up the first week of meso 1. I really am looking forward to a day without exercise. Putting in a lot of effort and time with my karate, even at home, sure does take it out of me...

Well, back to school and busy again. Not so bad yet, but its getting back into the swing of things. And on top of all that doing STS a third time! The first mesocycle really takes it out of me, plus I've been putting a lot of extra effort into my karate. Pulled my left groin and right calf the...

Happy New Year! I started STS again today (3rd time around). It felt good, but boy oh boy, those endurance workouts get me! I'v been pretty lazy today, been watching a lot of football. I really have nothing of interest on my mind. School starts again, Monday. I'm ready for it, believe it or...
