    Ok, add on 22 minutes of light weight work for shoulders, floorwork for abs, legs and glutes with a stretch. Now I think I am through for the day.

    Hi ladies, Nice longer workouts today, good job!! Today I found what I thought was another 'I Love Kickboxing ' workout with the same instructor as Monday but after the warmup of about 5 or so minutes it became more instructional than I wanted it to be so I switched. I found a Kombat...

    Hey Linda, I Love Kickboxing is a franchise that have facilities all around where you go to take classes. Unfortunately, there are none within 100 miles of where I live. Closest is New York and all the workouts are done barefoot. Mind you I had on shoes, too many feet issues to risk a wrong...

    Ours isn't too crowded and for once I went and didn't see a single person I knew not even any gym people. Sigh. Guess there is next year. Plus technically I am not from here so I don't know a lot of locals though we have lived here since 1998.

    Hi ladies, Today is October Days downtown so I walked to downtown then walked around all the vendors , bought a pair of earrings and then walked home. All in all about a 70 minute walk. Sounds good to me. Have a great weekend!! PS that equaled 4505 steps according to my phone.

    Hi ladies, Hope everyone is feeling better today. I have some DOMS in my triceps today so that is good. Today I have 2 appointments but squeezed in a Kombat Fitness 56 which I had never done. It was poorly dubbed but a very energetic cardio kickboxing workout. I left out the floorwork with...

    DOMS can be a good thing but abdominal DOMS that last 4+ days is a bit much in my book. Plus abdominal DOMS are very painful considering the exercise that did it wasn't even for abs.

    Well, I took the day off....while my ab muscles are quite a bit better on the surface(before just touching my tummy made it hurt) now it is a deeper lingering of some pain and discomfort. Much more tolerable than the past 3 days so that is a good sign that hopefully everything is healing...

    Nicki, the workout I did was my own light weight high rep workout from Tuesday. In that workout I tried a YouTube lady's hip thrust move . Basically, you lean your back against a bench or in my case a couch, sort of like a tricep dip, put a weight in the crook of your hip and thigh where...

    Hi ladies, Well, the ab muscles still hurt not quite as much so that is nice. Today I struggled to find a workout I was willing to do. But finally settled on Taebo Cardio for Body and Mind which was 43 minutes long. Very basic moves but done with intensity plus I had on my wrist weights...
