    Buff Badgers Week of August 19

    Good morning. Today I did about an hour of Cardio Fusion. I was tired and a little bored during that drill with the ball during the Drill Max section and decided to get on with my day. Brenda- I love Irish Fest, but DH and I are pretty proud of our small amount of Irish heritage :D The...

    Buff Badgers Week of August 19

    Hi ladies! Saturday was Phase One Timed Metabolic, which, honestly, is a pretty easy little workout. I like it though. I think when I'm done with the rotation it'll be an excellent add-on, or something quick to do when I don't feel like it. I do get nice and sweaty by the end. Later we went to...

    Good afternoon. Today is THAT day of the month. I wasn't sure I'd manage it, but I did get to Phase 1 Strength 1, though much later in the day than normal. Brenda- Thanks for the tip. With all my weight lifting, I never thought about strengthening my hands much :p I do have short fingers and...

    Good morning. Today I did 4DS Higher Intensity Step. Definitely one of my top five Cathe workouts :D I know this is a busy time of year, hope everyone is doing okay, and have a great day!

    Good morning! Today was D2S Phase One Strength 2. I used a 25 in each hand for the step ups and had some trouble with it. It's so hard on my hands to hang on to the heavy weights for that long that I had trouble focusing on my legs. Not sure if I should try a barbell next time... Brenda- I'm...

    Hello! No real workout for me today. Just a walk with the dog this morning, and I'm about to take him for a nice long one now to work off some of my dinner (I went and made a pound cake...:o) Plus, I love this temperature. Heartymax- I like Imax 3 but I usually don't do the whole thing. I...

    Hi, ladies! I had a nice weekend. My mom and I took DS to the Fair on Saturday, which was a lot of fun. My poor mom had a stomach bug, so we didn't stay as long as we originally planned, but DS got to do all the fun stuff he wanted to. Saturday was the Phase 1 Countdown Metabolic Workout...

    Buff Badgers Week of Aug 5th

    Hello and happy Friday! Today was Phase One Strength Two. I tacked a Cathe warmup on to the beginning today. I like the warmup that comes with the workouts, but I get sick of doing the same warmup every time. Heartymax- I usually either skip that part at the end or just do 4 sets at my...

    Buff Badgers Week of Aug 5th

    Hello, everyone! No real workout for me today. My hip flexor feels close to normal and I don't want to jinx it. I'm also dog-sitting my mom's dog today, and I'm worried she'll follow me down to the basement. Elliot knows not to go down there, and I'd like to keep it that way. I'll probably...

    Buff Badgers Week of Aug 5th

    Hello! Strength One again today. I was able to use 20's for everything but shoulder presses, but I managed 15's on those for the first set. I needed to drop to 12's for the second set. I think I strained/pulled my hip flexor somehow. My fault for not warming up enough....:confused: I don't...

    Buff Badgers Week of Aug 5th

    Hello! My MIL took DS for a few hours, so I decided to take advantage of the alone time and the sun and go on an OUTDOOR aerobic walk. It was a nice change of pace, and I got to soak up some vitamin D. Elliot definitely enjoyed it, too. Heartymax- I thought that was you in the pink! Lookin'...

    Buff Badgers Week of Aug 5th

    Good morning! Saturday was Phase One Timed Metabolic from Drop Two Sizes. Yesterday was a rest day, which I most definitely needed. I liked the metabolic workout a lot. It was really short and sweet. Today is Phase One Strength Two. I don't think I'll be able to check in later to report how...

    Buff Badgers Week of 7/29

    Hello! Today was Phase 1 Strength 1. It felt a bit easier this time, but I was still sucking down my protein shake when I was done. My legs are certainly getting worked. If they aren't completely gorgeous after three months of this I'll know it was never meant to be :D Heartymax- I really...

    Buff Badgers Week of 7/29

    Good morning. I am Ms. Sore Legs again today, but I did Low Impact Challenge without the blast at the end. With my tired legs, it definitely felt like a challenge. Heartymax- I haven't done all of Muscle Endurance in awhile. I sometimes do the upper body premix. I usually can't face the...

    Buff Badgers Week of 7/29

    Good morning! I just finished Drop 2 Sizes Phase 1 Strength 2. I liked this one a lot, but next week I will use 20s instead of 15s. The lower body exercises were ones I was very familiar with, like Romanian deadlifts and step-ups, so I felt like my muscles could take on a heavier weight...

    Buff Badgers Week of 7/29

    Good morning. I. Am. Sore. Rest day or stretch only for sure today. Edited later: I ended up doing a Jessica Smith walking workout on You Tube. It kind of warmed up all my muscles and made everything feel much better. Heartymax- I loved reading about your RT experience! I really would like to...

    Buff Badgers Week of 7/29

    Good morning. We had a busy weekend, and I did no workout. Saturday we had a picnic with some old friends and then helped my brother and his wife move. They now live only four blocks away from us :) Yesterday was church, grocery shopping, cleaning, swimming lesson, and more grocery shopping...

    Buff Badgers Week of July 22nd

    Hello! Just popping in really quick. I did Jari's Ripped and Chiseled for the first time in about a year. Holy crud; it kicked my tail. I seem to recall doing the bicep section with 8lb weights, and today I was doomed to 5's. But, I haven't been doing endurance work lately, and over 200 curls is...

    Buff Badgers Week of July 22nd

    Good morning. I wasted way too much time on the computer this morning and had to cut my workout short. I did just the fist half of Imax 2. Brenda- I got my shipping notice on Tuesday. I hope they get here this week because I'd like to start Monday. Otherwise I'll have to wait a week since...

    Buff Badgers Week of July 22nd

    Hello, everyone. I did Mix It Up from Slim Series today. It's more upper body focused, which is good, because my quads are so sore from Monday's workout. I ordered the Drop Two Sizes book for my Kindle and skimmed through it last night. I must say I've very excited to get the dvds. Reading...
