Cardio Leg Blast. Had I said I was looking forward to it?? :) I went to bed early last night (8:30 pm) with a migraine, but I still wasn't that with it this morning. After the warmup and a few of the exercises, I decided I wasn't really into the workout, so I stopped the DVD. But, I still...

Hi! I completed 5 of 8 rounds today for C/B/S. That is all I was up for. Good thing, too, since I was done at 6:30 am and had to make 3 different car runs/drop offs to 2 different schools today so kids could drop off text books, band instruments, etc. Cardio Leg Blast tomorrow. I'm actually...

Went out to the movies with my husband last night. By the time we got home, got the kids settled, fought with the oldest and youngest about not having an all night Harry Potter movie marathon the weekend before the last week of school the day before a very busy Saturday, bedtime lights out was...

So, today I woke with my Achilles slightly inflamed. The only thing I can think of is that I was walking last night to get my 10,000 steps for the day. :( I did Tabata premix #5 but purposely skipped to Tabata 4 and only did 4 & 5 because I wanted to try different ones. I like those a lot. I...

Hi, Ranch Mom. Believe it or not, I was going to post just about the same note as you did. I am TIRED, and I feel like I need a rest day. I was thinking about tomorrow, since I know my husband won't be getting up early, so we can all sleep a little bit more (so, maybe get up at 6 instead of...

I clearly read the schedule wrong when I thought it was Hard Strikes. I had the disc in but looked at the guide again to make sure I didn't need to add abs when I saw it was supposed to be All Out Low Impact HIIT, so I did that one instead like scheduled. So, I got through the floor work and...

Legs today; I did a premix without the Barre section because I was a little bit short on time. Still, it was over 65 minutes. That is funny how that is a "shorter" workout. I looked ahead to the end of the week and see Tabatacize and Super Cuts on Friday and Saturday again, respectively. Not...

Burn sets Bis and Tris today. I went up on one exercise I had marked to go up on with success. I was very tired today; it was a hard workout. We have an EOY band concert tonight for my youngest son. I will TRY and get a good night's sleep tonight to be ready for Legs tomorrow.

Supercuts today. I really did not want to do this workout, but I made myself do it. I am glad that I did. I can't really figure out why I don't like this workout. Maybe because it is so hard! I did have to take two pause breaks, both times to blow my nose (allergies causing a runny nose)...

OK, so I lied! I don't know where I got the energy from. I walked into the kitchen and made my pre-workout drink, took one sip, and thought, "let's do this!" So, I got dressed and did Tabatacize. I chose Premix #3 because I told myself next time I did the workout I would do three Tabatas...

Hi, Ranch Mom! Yes, I thought of you when I saw that Cathe video since you said you wanted more barre workouts. I don't think I would buy that. We have too much equipment as it is and that would take up too much space since our exercise equipment is all in a corner of our TV room. Well, 2nd...

Hi, Ranch Mom! Yellowstone sounds wonderful! I dream of taking trips like that with my family, but none of them are really into long car rides. And, campers or RVs? Forget it! They prefer hotel rooms. I personally think it would be fun, though. I'm thinking that I HAVE to do a trip like...

Hi, Ranch Mom. When I saw your post I thought I got the schedule messed up, but no I see that today was definitely supposed to be Hard Strikes? Are you just mixing it up this week? Tomorrow, I will do Chest/Back/Shoulders but I will probably leave out Core #1 because I have to get my youngest...

Hi! I needed a rest day, so I opted to sleep in to 5:45 instead of getting up for Hard Strikes. I was up a bit late last night (10 pm), as I was having some major computer issues that I had to resolve (3 hours on the phone with Microsoft) before turning back to a work project for one of my...

Hello! Well, we had a band concert LAST night. 2 of my 3 kids were in it. They are in the high school jazz band and concert band. Plus, there was the 7th & 8th grade bands. By the time we got home, settled, etc, I was in bed at 11:30 pm. Not good when I had to be up again at 5 am. I...

Hi, RanchMom! Boy, reading your posts that so could be me! I didn't take any naps this weekend (though I considered it), because, like you, that is highly unusual for me. However, there are those times that I HAVE to take one. I'd say once every 8 weeks?? I should probably take a nap every...

Hi, Ranch Mom! So, before I forget, I looked ahead to next week, and for the Tabata day, online it says choices 1-5. So make a note of it. I hear you about being tired. I really wanted to stop during the workout even though it is short. There is one part I always am ready give up, right...

I'm glad Bis and Tris was a little shorter today. My body is tired! But, I tried hard, and I stuck to the weights I used last time, which were heavier on just a few of the moves. My back is sore, and I'm not sure if it's from the workouts or the normal aging/sleeping weird aches. I've really...

Great job and getting compliments, too! :) So, I decided to go with Tabata premix "12" because I wanted to be a good girl and follow the book, but when I got to the back section and did the first set of back rows, I just knew I should have gone with my gut and NOT done back! My back muscles...

Hi, Ranch Mom. I saw a thread about someone asking about a Cathe Barre workout that was on a DVD as a bonus workout. So, she must have something out there other than what is on X-train. I still don't know what to do tomorrow about Tabatacize and whether to do Burn Back. My chest is pretty...
