Had a pretty early and full day yesterday, so missed doing ICE To the Mat. Toby and I had handling class last night and he did really well. Our first show is 6 weeks away and for the first time I feel like we are on a steady track to be ready for it. Today, the rain held off this morning long...

Doing Cathe's April rotation--I know, no big surprise there. Yesterday I substituted ICE Low Impact Sweat for Rockem Sockem because I did that one last week. Today was Cardio Core Circuits--always a tough workout. A little chilly this morning but not too bad and Toby and I got a nice long walk...

Toby and I walked 3 miles this morning. A little chilly, but we warmed up nicely on our walk. A certain pooch was a bit tired, so after we got home, I knocked out ICE Total Metabolic Body timesaver that includes the warmup, muscle meltdown for chest, and stretch plus ICY core 1. I ordered a new...

Thursday and Friday were rest days--today was ICE Metabolic Total Body. Love this workout. I think I've noted that before. Typical Saturday: training class with Toby in the morning, exercise, playing outside with Toby, doing stuff around the house. Kathy: come on down--would love to have you...

ICE Rockem Sockem Blast Timesaver--just under 30 minutes of cardio plus a 2 1/2 mile walk with Toby this morning. Handling class tonight. Toby did pretty good considering it was his first time in class with a female dog in season. First time for everything and he is going to have to get used to...

Going back to ICE this week--today I did upper body circuits after a nice 2+mile walk with Toby this morning. Janie: way to go on IMAX3! Kathy: looking forward to reading your reports on the rotation you are doing. What a bummer that your arthritis flared up on the first workout. Fortunately...

Happy Easter everyone. May God's grace and love bless each and every one of you and your families. Not sure what is going on with the postings here. Seems like lots of posts were not "visible" to me yesterday and now there are a bunch of posts from you all. Just happy to read what everyone is...

Beautiful spring day here in Virginia. Toby and I have taken a long walk and played several rounds of fetch and tug in the yard. We also had training class this morning which was a bit challenging because we "played" an impulse control game. We do the impulse control games as a group which is...

What a wonderful surprise today to see that Laura has checked in! I wish you were standing right in front of me Laura--I'd give you a great big (((((HUG))))). So--I think I've been bad this week, not checking in. But I've been good with my workouts. Finishing up the last week of Cathe's March...

Got busy again this week--funny how that happens. Mostly sticking with Cathe's March rotation with some slight modifications here and there. For example: Thursday I did the first half of LIS Total Body Trisets, Friday the cardio and circuit portions of Body Max, and today the second half of LIS...

Chilling out for a few minutes after a busy morning. Toby and I walked for two miles this morning, then after breakfast, I threw his tug for about 10 minutes before loading him in the SUV and going to class. We had a great class this morning. The first half of class, the instructor split us into...

Hi everyone. Today was a Cathe oldie: Step Heat. Not that hard but I managed to work up a good sweat. It's been a while since I've done a 59 minute workout. I feel a rest day coming on. Not sure if it will be tomorrow or Sunday. Weekend plans include training class with Toby, maybe a trip into...

Pyramid Upper Body Pyramid Up Premix this morning, plus a nice 2 mile walk with Toby this morning and another mile walk this evening. We'll be heading out to handling class in about 15 minutes so I thought I'd try to do a quick check-in. Still very busy at work and that is not going to change...

Hmmm. Not sure if we have lost Kathy. I hope not. Spring has come to Virginia this week. Thank goodness. Toby and I got a 2 mile walk in this morning and I anticipate doing another 2 miles later this afternoon. XTRAIN cardio leg blast timesaver premix interval/blasts 6-12. Love the second half...

It was a very busy week. I have been given the opportunity to lead a study for the Commandant of the Marine Corps and getting the study proposal written has taken up most of the past week. I got a draft to the Major General who is acting as the sponsor for the Commandant, got his comments back...

Toby and I had a good training class this morning. And we've had some good practice sessions at home. Pup is resting right now until I get off the computer. Did XTRAIN bis and tris burn sets this afternoon. It is otherwise a quiet Saturday. Hope everyone is enjoying their day. Michelle

XTRAIN cardio leg blast timesaver first 6 blast and weight routines plus core 2. My abs were really feeling the core work. Plus about 4 miles of walking with Toby today. It's no wonder I'm ready to go to sleep by 9 pm each night. Fortunately, so is Toby. No reason for class not to happen...

Focusing on low impact HIIT workouts, core, and strength this week using XTRAIN workouts. Yesterday was AOLIH step, discs, and core 1 timesaver. This morning was XTRAIN burn sets back and shoulders. Both handling and obedience classes were cancelled last night due to the tornado watch in the...

Today was definitely not a rest day. Toby and I started the morning with a 1 mile walk, then a 2 mile walk, and another 1 mile walk. Then I did Supercuts timesaver first half of workout and bonus core 1. I'm going to do cardios between 25-30 minutes this week and then an XTRAIN burn set each...

Yesterday was a rest day but took several good walks with Toby. Today, the weather is really wonderful here in Virginia and Toby and I have taken advantage of it getting our walks in. Did Tabatacise 1-3 this afternoon. Otherwise, I've spent the day cleaning the house and spending time with...
