    Anyone want to do hundredpushups with me?

    Lol, you sound just like me! I want to do them on my toes as well. I just tried to see how many I could do and I got out 6. That puts me on level 2 but I am starting out on the lowest level as well. I don't want to hurt myself. And besides, I did them really slow. I'll do mine in the am as...

    Not in great shape, but getting there-March 6th

    Hello all! Amy - I feel so sad for you with all that snow!! It's actually a beautiful day here in Ohio. Sunny and and 50. Can't ask for too much more than that in early March around here. It will probably be cold and gray again in a few days. I am really starting to itch for warmer...

    Finally back in a workout groove and now...

    Thanks for all the advice! You are all confirming that common sense part of my brain that I was not wanting to listen to :o. I guess I don't understand how I am supposed to get to the next level of fitness if more intense activity injures me! I have had multiple rounds of PT in the past for...

    Anyone want to do hundredpushups with me?

    I have been thinking about it too, so I am in! It will give me the push I need to stick to it. Are you going to do your test on Monday or actually start the program? I haven't done the test yet. Are you going to continue your regular strength training? The only thing I am unsure of is how...

    Finally back in a workout groove and now...

    I hurt my knee! Doing something simple and basic!! I am so frustrated :mad: I was taking the stairs at work yesterday when I got a sudden sharp pain in my left knee. The pain is on the outside of my knee towards the top. It only hurts when I am bearing weight and the knee is bent - climbing...

    Go wear fit or Heart rate monitor??

    I agree with bonvivant. I have both a Polar F6 monitor (which tells calorie burn) and the GWF (got it a week ago!!). The Polar was ok at telling me what I burned during workouts (although that was even sketchy at times because it would lose my HR so often during intense workouts) but it was...

    Not in great shape, but getting there-Feb 27th

    Wow Amy! That was lots of great information :-) I have been trying to decide if I should by the shock cardio series next or continue to build up my collection of the older stuff. I still can't decide! I recently bought Kick Max because I love 4DS KB and Kick, Punch and Crunch. Unfortunately...

    An Elliptical on cement floor?

    I recently moved my elliptical off the rubber mats I had on the cement floor directly to the cement floor. It works exactly the same. There isn't any extra noise, movement or anything. HTH!

    Getting Out of the Rut - Wednesday

    Hello! I did fairly well today. I did a quick walk with my friend before work this morning and then I did Kick Max after work. I just bought it so this was the first time I did this one. I have to say I was disappointed :-( I really wanted to like it! I love KPC and 4DS KB so I was...

    Getting out of the rut - Tuesday

    Good Morning everyone! I did Low Max this morning. I have been doing lots of high impact stuff lately and my hips were really getting stiff and sore so I figured I should lay off the jumping. It's so funny because everytime I start that workout I always regret it for the first 15 minutes...

    Not in great shape, but getting there-Feb 27th

    Hello all! How has everyone been? I have been ok, not posting much though! My DD has still been giving me fits! She is moving out this weekend. She is leaving on good terms and I think over the long term it will be a good thing...it's just hard :-( I have been doing really well with my...

    Out of the Rut - Monday

    Hello Everyone! I am having too much fun with my GWF! I love it :-) I did KPC bright and early this morning and then after work I did the KB from 4DS. I wasn't planning on the second workout but my friend is in a little rut herself so I took the DVD over to her house and we did the workout...

    Getting Out of The Rut - Saturday

    Hello everyone! I didn't work out today but yesterday I did cardio fusion. I just bought it a few days ago, I was a little nervous about it after the recent thread about dreading it. I thought it was great though! I really enjoyed it. I had to stop to breathe a bunch of times, but that's...

    Getting Out of the Rut - Wednesday

    Sign me up for a kick in the pants too! I have not been good on my eating for the last 2 1/2 days. Mainly too many snacks. Ugh! I worked longer than planned yesterday and didn't have time to work out and today is another long day and I don't know if I will want to work out by the time I get...

    Getting out of the rut - Monday

    Good Evening! I am trying not to beat up on myself too much tonight because I ate terribly at dinner! Today was my DS 13th bday and he wanted to go to Dave & Buster's for dinner. I had excellent plans about picking a healthy meal...didn't happen. Potato skins, tortilla chips, and a chicken...

    Out of the Rut - Sunday

    Hello! I did Kick, Punch and Crunch today. It was fun as always. I am really sore in my legs though because yesterday I did Disc 9, legs. I am super excited to be almost done with Meso 1. I started to feel a little discouraged because I am not noticing any changes yet, but I am giving...

    Getting out of the Rut - Friday

    Good Morning Ladies! I woke up at 4:30 am (ugh!) to do Low Max today. I cut it off at the last step combo so I could go get ready for work. The first 20 minutes actually seemed too easy! I reminded myself though that I need some lighter workouts mixed in with the intense ones so I don't...

    Getting out of the rut - Thursday...

    Hi All! I did pretty well today despite feeling a little down. I did Disc 8 of Meso 1, back & triceps. I ate well today although every meal ended up being a breakfast food. Lol! Yesterday I didn't post but I did get in a workout, I did Step Blast. That wore me out!! I love that workout...

    Getting out of the rut - Tuesday

    jodi - maybe we need to have an "it's ok to eat frosted mini wheats" thread! lol. We might get kicked off the boards :-) Ellie - I love Tae Bo! I really like kickboxing and I think that Tae Bo is a fun flavor of kickboxing. Before I found Cathe I did it everyday. Now I keep it in the...
