    PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION: Month 2 FEBRUARY

    Good Evening Ladies, I wasn't planning to sign on tonight, but had some time. I did Total Body Tri-sets Lower Body and LIS CSS Step Express tonight. Tri-sets kicked my butt! Those one-legged cross over squats are killer. I have to gradually work my way up on these to ensure proper form...

    Starting 3 mo LIS/STS rotation Feb 12th

    Hi Heidi, I am leaving work as soon as the rain stops and will be doing Tri-Sets LB. I am feeling the DOMS from last nights workout so I know I will really feel it tomorrow. Sounds like you are a seasoned exerciser so LIS CSS won't be too tough for you? I am feeling tired now, but...

    Starting 3 mo LIS/STS rotation Feb 12th

    Hi Heidi, Great job on your workout yesterday - strength and cardio all in the same day! I may have to do the same tonight, if I have the endurance as I won't be able to do cardio tomorrow. Thanks for the advice on the dixie cups - I tried it on Afterburn and can't bend down quite that...

    Hi Heidi, I did STS Disc 16 and it was great! My arms were shaking afterwards and I am sure I will have DOMS in the next couple of days :D. I didn't know my 1RM, but kind of guestimated and it worked for the most part. I read on one DVD that you can figure out the 1RM without have to...

    PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION: Month 2 FEBRUARY

    Hello again Ladies, Stacy - I am with you on the unclean eating. I was ready to check in and confess my dirty deed and see I am not alone. It is hard because I love food, probably a little too much and the love runs on all sides of my family and family-in-laws. I do good for awhile then fall...

    Thanks, Ladies for the warm welcomes and allowing me to be a part of your group. Stacy - I started step aerobics in the late 90's and fell in love with it then felt I needed something more so I joined the Y and got really into weight training. I got away from it for several years only...

    Substitute Exercise For Lunges?

    I wonder if modified step ups would work for him, just really drive the push from the glutes and hams and keep the back foot as flat as possible.

    3 month transformation rotation

    Hi Cathe, I am going to start the three month transformation rotation after I finish the one month rotation. I can only workout five days a week. I need Wed and Sun off. The three month gives Sun off, but I noticed Wed is a LIS / cardio focus. Could I just do the DVD or some other cardio...
