    Ripped with HiiT January

    Today is a cycling workout. I have ridden my stationary bike for thousands of miles, but this will be the first formal workout. I'm interested to see if I like it. Jengollf, I ordered YAYOG. I'm excited to see if I can squeeze them in on a less active evening. :)

    Getting it done for January 2015

    Thanks to everyone for the welcome. A little about me, I'm 45, been working out for 30 years nearly everyday since. I've always been a home exerciser and struggled to find workouts that I found hard enough and where the instructor had good form and good workout integrity. About 4 years ago I...

    I will be doing LIHI Legs w/ abs #1 this morning. This one is fun, fun, fun. I'm wondering if I would get more benefit by doing the workout first and then the abs, or if it would be equally beneficial if I did the premix with the abs intermixed.... Jengollf, the posts about EFX have me...

    Today is Rockout Knockout, but I'll add the heavy bag segment at the end (even though I don't have one I just do the moves). This is a fun workout and I use weighted gloves for the whole thing. I'm wondering about doing a burn set rotation with the Xtrain burn sets. Any thoughts? Those...

    We have so much in common. I totally get the priority thing. I get up at 4:45 for that same reason, but finding time in the evening is the hard part. I still have 1 little at home, so evenings can get pretty busy. I'm a school counselor at an all Kindergarten school, so I'm pretty much on my...

    Starting the January rotation this morning. so PLH1 + X10 Cardio Blast. X10 is a work of genius and here it is showing why once again. It is so easy to add it to another workout. Hope everyone is starting their week feeling stronger and healthier. Jengollf, why the doubles? Do you have a...

    Shoes?

    I need some new shoes, but always struggle to find a pair with good lateral support. What shoes are everyone else wearing?

    Sara, I think you're on the right track with the exercise. Just keep it lighter than usual. I found this article that you might find interesting http://cathe.com/if-you-exercise-with-a-cold-will-it-last-longer Take Care and hang in there. :)

    After two weeks of taking it pretty easy, then this last week of RWH all week I am feeling serious DOMS today. I did the LI premix #2 this morning and am stiff as a board. Since I don't often get DOMS it's kind of nice to feel the work. I keep chuckling to myself when I push myself up off the...

    I'm losing 4 pounds! Want to join me?

    I'll join you too! I've done an anti inflammatory cleanse twice before and they are hard, but worth it. They have been a great way to "reset" my eating when it has gotten off track. Of course, I would LOVE to lose 5, or so, pounds, but the true benefit is in the energy I feel and getting back...

    RWH LI premix 2 - i love to combine the two workouts. Drizzly rain here in the Seattle area, so it'll be an "inside" day today.

    RWH LIHI Legs today. Ought to be a challenge for sure. Last time I did it I used 45# barbell, we'll see where I stand today. Wish me luck. 7:04 - just finished that workout. I don't know which workout I was thinking of, but no barbell here. I just followed along with the weights Cathe...

    Menopause and weight gain... ; (

    I agree with Justine. I'm 45 and have only been doing heavy weights for the last year. The results are remarkable. I've always been an "aerobic junkie" and resisted weights, but since I've tried them I can definitely see my "younger body" emerging. It does take time to see changes, but you...

    This morning I will do RIHI Back, Shoulders & Biceps too. Did RWH Plyo hiit premix that combines 1&2. 1 is still harder for me than 2. After 2 weeks of moderate cardio I saw a loss of cardio stamina. I had to take several breaks during 1 to catch my breath, but not on 2. Also, I could feel my...

    Haven't received the DVDs that I need to start the Xtrain/RWH rotation so I'll go back to the RWH get started rotation until they arrive. I'm looking forward to being able to move and breathe hard again. :) I'm not as sore as I thought I'd be after that Chest, Shoulders, and Tris, but I did have...

    Morning Ladies, I've been taking it easy the last two weeks, with some moderate bike riding each day due to minor leg surgery. I'm expecting to get the all clear today, so I'm starting the Xtrain RWH rotation, but skipping the first day and getting right to the RWH Chest, Shoulders & Triceps...
