    you girls are both cracking me up! that would have been fun to see, ladylep! I have been in a few yoga classes before where I had to keep myself from bursting out laughing as the instructors can be so loopy and strange. :p so, the boys are here and I have to keep my eyes on them again, but I...

    Hi girls! Today was the Viper! What a workout! That was tough stuff and I was so happy when I made it to the end! Don't know if I would survive the other two on there, as they are even more cardio intense. I have the boys from 9-4 everyday except Friday this week, so will need to do short...

    Hi girls! Sorry I didn't get on here yesterday. Got in a workout, though! Cardio kicks:). I really like that one. Great upper body and core work with a good sweat. Anyway, today is my rest day. Finally slept well last night! It was so hard to get up with the 7:00 alarm, though! I get so sleep...

    hi girls! cardio and weights for me today. have still been having horrible insomnia-- averaging about 4-4 and a half hours of sleep each night. today it was horribly muggy and humid, so I sweat like crazy for that workout. I used 15 lb weights through the whole thing instead of 12s and that...

    Wow, Renee, great workouts! I am thinking about cardio and weights tomorrow, but haven't decided yet. Today was legs and glutes. I used 20 lbs instead of 15 on the leg presses, and 20s instead of 12s for deadlifts. Felt super tough! I survived the first day with the little ones! Have them again...

    hi girls! me again! two nights in a row of being up around 3:30, so I didn't want anything too intense today! I did crosstrain express kickboxing again-- I really like this one! renee, I think it would be good for you and your feet, as there is jumping, but not too much, and lots of upper body...

    Hi girls. Power hour for me today. That's a great workout! I really fried my chest using a 35 lb barbell. Cathe never said what she was using, but think I went too heavy and was using 20 lb dumbbell instead of 10s. Also used 40 for lunges and my legs were completely fried. Guessing I will be...

    Renee-- I love the music in Imax2, so guessing I will love it in Imax 3 as well. I think what makes it harder for me is knowing there are ten intervals-- I keep counting them down. And those genie jumps on one leg are what fry me in the beginning, and that ninth interval is a killer to me. Guess...

    Hi girls! Today was IMAX 2 and some yoga. That workout felt even more intense the second time doing it. Wondering if I will survive IMAX 3 when I get it! IMAX seems more intense to me then crossfire or to the max, up there with plyo hiit for me! Great job on the workout, Ladylep! Sounds like...

    Hi girls. Rest day for me today, which is good, as I am sitting and waiting on the kids all day long during their chamber music rehearsal. Yesterday I did push pull and yoga. The day before I did cardio kicks, which actually gave me some major DOMS in my upper body, sides, lats and even a bit in...

    hi girls! sorry i didn't get on here yesterday! i did do supersets, though, and today i meant to do cross train step intervals, but somehow did the step circuit (which was probably a bad idea as it worked my back muscles again after doing the weights yesterday-- oh well!). i also did some...

    hi girls-- today for me was step blast (I finally tried it! all the step combos were very manageable except for the last one which seemed way trickier to me) and B&G stability ball abs. it is finally nice here today! I had a cool breeze for my workout, which always makes things better! :-)...

    hi girls! today was bootcamp-- talk about a beast of a workout in this heat! the exterminator lunges were the most intense, I think, but the whole workout felt on the same level as crossfire or to the max, to me. an intense way to start the workout week, that is for sure. I also did 25 minutes...

    hi girls. me again. this insomnia is really kicking my butt :-(. last night I woke up when rik came to bed at 1:30 and I couldn't fall back asleep. then I was thinking I would still do a short workout, so pulled out crosstrain express and did the kickboxing one-- well, that one is still 58...

    hi girls! cardio and weights today- such a fun workout! though, I am really sore! think from the pyramid workouts (and maybe started off with muscle endurance!). anyway, not sure what to do tomorrow. had been planning on bootcamp to finish the series off, but if I am this sore, will have to do...

    great job on the workouts, renee! how are your feet doing these days? today I did pyramid LB after another night of very crummy sleep. just can't fall back asleep after waking at around 2:30. I think it's just taking me time to shift back to another school year. having that alarm go off at 5:30...

I sweat buckets on that! pushed through even though I felt fried out by about the 7th interval. glad I did it all. what a great workout that is! the step...
