    hi girls! another day with the boys, but they got here a little bit later, so I got in pyramid UB. I matched all of cathe's weights except was able to go heavier on triceps and back. those biceps exercises really kill me, as do the shoulders and then the pikes on the ball. my upper body is so...

    hi girls! got the boys early this morning, so did rwh plyo hiit 1 plus abs 2. that felt tough this morning! last time I did it, it wasn't so bad. today my legs and feet were hurting. that abs 2 is way more challenging to me then abs 1, too. anyway, felt like I got a good sweat in in a short...

    hi girls! good to hear from you both! today for me was supersets, jivamukti yoga and now a walk. supersets has gotten easier for me since the first time I tried it last summer (august, I think). the bicep concentration curls on the ball with 25 lb barbell are now more manageable, and I am not...

    hi girls! well, did a short workout this morning thinking that the boys were coming at 9am, but they have colds, so there wasn't a need :-(. oh well. I didn't sleep at all last night-- couldn't even fall asleep initially which is normally not a problem for me-- so maybe it's good to have a quiet...

    me again! yesterday was lower body pyramid. I have major DOMS *all over* from both those pyramid workouts. couldn't decide what to do today, but ended up doing step blast. I really like that one! all but the 3rd combo are completely doable for me, and even that one I almost have! love the blasts...

    Hi girls! Me again! Got in maximum intensity strengtht this morning. Those outfits and hairstyles were hilarious! The triceps dips with the barbell were tough, but otherwise the workout felt less intense than many of cathe 's workouts. Biceps were pretty tough, too. I went heavier on the legs...

    hi girls! quick update. last day of the week that the boys are here, so tomorrow I can get a longer workout in (and maybe some more sleep!). anyway, did timesaver number 1 today, which is step and then chest and tris. I went too heavy on the chest and tri work so that by the time we went to the...

    hi girls! the boys are here again, but I got in plyo hiit 1 plus yoga this morning. that felt way easier! I wonder why? if it is because I haven't done it in a while, or if it is from doing all these other older cathe workouts? imax 2 and step blast, cardio kicks, step jump and pump etc. I had...
