Heartymax - Maybe I'm not going deep enough in those side sliding lunges because I don't think they're too bad. Definitely a move you can cheat in and I'm not past cheating if I think my body is pushing the limits. Did you order the new Cathes that she's filming this week? For the first time...

No workout yet today. Officially it's my rest day but I did take it kind of easy on Saturday with cardio by only doing Leslie for 2 miles so I will try to do something tonight if time permits. DS finished 2nd in discus with a new PR of 96.6! His 4xFAT relay team (all football linemen)...

Friday was STS Disc 3 Legs. Oh, my! My butt was sore on Saturday. I did 2 miles from Leslie's 5 Day Fit Walk plus my usual Saturday house cleaning and that was enough for me. Yesterday was STS Disc 4 Chest, Shoulders, Biceps. Lots of pushups in this one. Had to drop to my knees by the end. This...

Did 30 MTF Cardio Blast Step workout this morning. I had a bad night sleeping - tossing and turning over DD. Someone even said to me this morning "Sue, you look stressed out!" I'm trying really, really hard not to give in to a binge though. Lost 2 pounds this past week. Still have a long way to...

Brenda - I sent you a PM. Too many weirdos on the internet. Buff Badgers excluded :) but I don't know who else might be reading this. I WISH I had Cathe's tower - especially for the pullups/chinups. We have a very small house and there's just no room. It's a bi-level so our lower level is...

This morning I did STS Disc 2 using my woody band for the pullups/chinups. Those are still hard for me - even with the thickest band. Looking forward to STS Legs on Friday. Laurie - Your yougest DD is doing very well in Track! Looks like she's following in her sister's footsteps after all. DS...

Brenda - I don't know if you saw my post from Saturday but I said that I worked in Menomee Falls and we have a brand new plant in Germantown so we work pretty close to each other. A lot of the people I work with live in the West Bend area. Sounds like you're a big STS fan. That's probably why...

Heartymax - It sure it nice that your DS appreciates things you do. I think my kids do a little but they won't really get it until they're older and are parents themselves. I'm glad you had great weather because ours stunk! Rainy and cold all weekend. Perfect weather to go see "The Avengers"...

Brenda - I work in Menomonee Falls and we just built a new plant in Germantown. Small world, huh? Good luck with your implementations. As much work as you do to prepare it seems there's always something that pops up. Have a great weekend! I did Biggest Loser Last Chance Workout last night...

Quick checkin before I head home. I did 10PSDX Lower Body Recovery workout this morning. Don't know why they call it "recovery". It's pretty tough to me! It's only 20 min. so I guess that's why. Brenda - The BL workouts are okay but not great. I have BL Cardio Max, Bootcamp, Weight Loss...

Susan - I think it's fun once in a while to do weights on my own. Having a guideline like your Oxygen workout or what I use, Body for Life strength workout, definitely helps. I think it also helps that you've been doing weights so long, you know when you're working hard and when you're not. Did...

No workout yet today. I plan to do cardio and core tonight. Not sure what yet - it'll depend how much time I have. Laurie - Some teachers will not accept late work but others will. I "almost" wish none of them did because it might teach her a lesson. Maybe. I keep wishing for that lesson to...

Sorry I didn't checkin on Friday. Our company had a "Town Hall Meeting" where we get to ask the Executives questions about anything going on in the company. They hold it over my lunch break so couldn't checkin. Laurie - It's the little things in life, right? DH installed a keyless entry for...

Laurie - I have to come in 1 more Sunday (not scheduled yet) and hopefully that's it for awhile. That would be really hard to be compared to your older sister. I think that's part of the reason DS didn't want to do Band. Marching Band, Jazz Band and Wind Ensemble are DD's thing. Sam - CTX...

Brenda - 10 Pound Slimdown and 10 Pound Slimdown Extreme are by Chris Freytag. I believe I bought mine from Total Fitness. I only have the Extreme one, not the original 10PSD. Depending on how heavy you go with your weights, these can be quite challenging. Laurie has used them more than I have...

Brenda - I think you'll like the Peak 10 workouts. I've only tried Peak Cardio Strength but Karen who used to post here raved about them and she is an advanced exerciser. Looks like you're having fun with the Weider workouts. I know Laurie liked them. I'm just not feeling like buying a new...

Sam! Wow, you're famous! To pick a picture featuring you out of all the pictures they have must make you feel special. :D You look a little tentative in the picture though. Do you recall what was going through your head when they snapped the picture? How did the cake turn out? Laurie -...

Sam - Hope you find a step workout today to satisfy your twitch! :-) KPC is a killer workout so tell your friend being able to complete even a portion of it is a huge accomplishment. Definitely a workout to grow with. What kind of cake are you making for DS? Are you one of those people who can...

Brenda - Thanks for the encouragement. I agree about those low pulses in MM. At least changing the weight from side to side distracts me. I read the Forum over my lunch break, too. Heartymax - I'm glad you and your husband are both enjoying the elliptical. I always forget about the Cardio...

After everyone took off last night after dinner, I almost blew off my workout but thought about what I wrote in my checkin earlier in the day and decided "No! Stop making excuses and get your butt downstairs!". So I did Athletic Step and added on a couple of Drill Max sections and a few HIIT...
