Hi Kara, TBT has plenty of pushups so I would say you have already done quite a few this week. :-)

Congrats Natty. I love that feeling when you conquer a tough workout. As for me, prior to the February rotation I did 4ds for 3 weeks and was working each upper body part twice a week. So part of the issue may be from being away from TBT for so long. I would like to do upper body twice a week...

Kara - Yes I am doing the Feb rotation. I am about 1.5 weeks again and am doing things a bit out of order. I have also thrown in some extra routines (step moves, an extra Butts&Guts and an extra Lower Body Blast). So far, I am not seeing a change in my lower half however, I am feeling loss of...

Hi Everyone! Looks like we have all been very busy. To sum up my workouts since last checking in: Friday - KPC (no pushups) Saturday - Leaner legs, plus I did step moves. So fun, but sure doesn't get my heart rate up. Sunday - Hiit 40/20 (holy cow, hard but I loved it. I did...

Hi CeciFifi - I haven't done STS yet because of those 1RM tests. I am overwhelmed by it. I know it's so important to do, but I am struggling to squeeze them into an already busy life. Someone else on the forum gave me the great idea to just do the 1RMs for week one and test for the additional...

Wow! I did CCC for the first time this week and I wasn't feeling the love, that's for sure. I have never felt so beat by a workout! How do you keep up with her? I like to be pushed to the point where I can just barely finish, but I like to actually finish. That last core segment - no way I...

Stacie- that's a great idea on how to do the 1RMs. I will have to do that. Not sure when I will start it. I am apprehensive to make a 3 month commitment. I am also a little worried about how it will change my physique. I don't want my arms any bigger, they are pretty lean and big enough. I...

I did my push ups for today and in the middle of my first set (28) my husband told me I wasn't going down far enough. So I have been cheating again :eek: My final count for pushups today is: 28-12-10-10-10. I punished myself for cheating by adding the extra 20. Rest breaks were 30 sec, 30...

Thanks Cheryl. I have seen a lot of people on this forum comment about doing Chalean Extreme. How is it in terms of intensity? How does it compare to Cathe's workouts? Do you have p90x? That's on my wish list. I haven't done Stretch Max in a while. I'll have to dust it off and try the band...

Brenda- I am right there with you. Excited and VERY nervous. Nervous about everything. I have only worked out at home, so I am worried about what to wear, worried about sweating too much (gross). Also when I workout I usually get a runny nose ( gross again), how will I blow my nose??!?! Lots...

Thanks. Those sure are some good looking people. Maybe I need to start doing kettlebells. Ha-ha

That sounds like my experience. The moves I could follow, but I couldn't keep up. Kudos to you for doing anything so late! And what a great attitude "today is another day!!!!" Susan

What is RKS?

As planned, yesterday was a rest day and my lower body thanked me!!!! I did do pushups though: 28-12-10 with 30 seconds between each set. I am not sure if I am ready to go to 60. When I started this, I was aiming to do 100 consecutive pushups. These 50 in 3 sets are VERY hard, not sure if...

I agree Stephanie! That's a great idea. I am still getting used to the idea of combining shorter workouts with something else. I am determined to do it all with no extra breaks. Not sure if I will ever master the rollback to roll forward to push up move but I am gonna keep trying. I think...

Thanks. Mine works a little different as I wear a strap around my chest and it's constantly tracking my h.r. How do you convert that info to a met value?

I love step too! Can't get enough of it. I love it so much that I think I went a whole year just using step for cardio. Maybe longer. Finally started pulling in other cardio with LIS in January and even dusted off KPC which is fun but no step!

Lisa/cvfinnegan, Just curious, how do you use your HR monitor to determine MET values? I did CCC this morning and WOW, that's a killer. I don't think I will pull that out very much, it is very hard and not so fun. I think Afterburn is very hard (not as hard as CCC) but it's fun somehow...

Hi everyone, I did my lunch break Yoga Relax today. I loved it. I saw a lot of negative feedback on the Yoga routines, but I thought this was fantastic. After starting the Feb 2012 rotation, my lower body has been so achy, not the usual DOMs but just an overall achiness, plus a little DOMs...

Good morning! I finally did my push up count yesterday. 24 on my toes, but according to my daughter my hands were too wide. I have been cheating this whole time doing wide push ups???? Oh boy!!! I am just happy to have a baseline recorded. I didn't do any more after my rest, I just wanted...
