Good morning everyone <yawn>. I am not a perky one this morning. I am quite tired. Sleepy. Want to crawl back into the warm bed, but life calls, and so I must go on.....
This morning I did a workout that probably had a resemblence to 10-10-10 followed by PLB. I'm not sure that my attempts at moving my limbs in any particular direction was overly accurate. But I can say that I got it done, and some days that's the best I ask for <yawn>.
You all are a warm and kind group of people. Thank you for your responses to my personal diatribe yesterday.
Carole - my goal is to have my own workout room, hopefully when we move out of this rental property and into a full-fledged house. I will definitely put a mirror in it, because at the hotel I really liked being able to assess my form. And call me clueless but I never made a connection between "boxing day" and boxing with the crowds LOL! How very accurate! Boxing Day was handed down to Canada from our British roots and has something to do with gift exchanges between "servants" and "masters", but I can't remember exactly what. I'll send good-weather vibes for you on Saturday. Enjoy IMAX Extreme today. I've got that one lined up for tomorrow!
Lisa - are you still following the 2 week rotation I suggested? How are you liking it? Is it challenging enough for you? I'm really hoping Cathe posts a January rotation!
Donna - that is awesome that RS felt so easy for you!! High Five! Those squats and lunges in combo 3 nearly killed me when I first learned that workout out a few years ago. Then I began Cathe's strength training, and they feel much, much easier now. If you want to add a good blast to the end of RS, you could add HSTA cardio only. That works amazingly well.
Annette - new dumbells - YAY! I'm going to use some Xmas money to buy a second 25lb dumbell, and a set of platemates. I never thought I would be so excited about iron and magnets.
Judy - I'm not sure how to interpret the smilies you put in your rotation. Are you happy about doing PS, or dreading it? Your rotation looks very good!
Jes - a new barbell! Woohoo! Are you going to get the traditional kind, or the Troy Lite that Cathe uses? I can't believe you all got snow! Has anyone ever told you not to eat the yellow snow? That's important information.
Debbie - thanks for popping in! It's always nice to hear from you!
Haydee - LOL at getting Cathe's abs for the new year. That would be a dream, and not likely possible given the genetic material that I'm working with. Although, you never know what CoreMax might do!
Sandy - Excellent work on the KPC/LG premix!! Those premixes are so, so, so good, aren't they? You've inspired me to put one into my rotation next week! And I'm so flattered that I helped motivate you to give the chocolates to the predators. Out of sight, out of mouth, right? Today I will do the same. Oh, btw, on New Years' Day we are having friends over for brunch. Could you please tell me how to make mimosas? And what would you use for a non-alcoholic version?
Your best friend is a fitness instructor? I am very envious of that! Does she teach at your gym? Does she do any of Cathe's workouts?
Mariángeles - I am so impressed that you made it through the August rotation!! Excellent work!! What will you do now?
Wendy - how exciting about the bigger tv! And the first 50 mins of Circuit Max are the most strenuous. Good work! Do you do the compound weights as Cathe does, or do you sub your own weight work?
Katie - you and I almost did the same workout today! I even considered doing Power Circuit instead of 10-10-10, because I like it better, but decided PLB had enough weight work in it for one day. You must have great lower body endurance!
I suffered another case of premature sendulation this morning, so you may have seen only half of this post earlier. Bad finger! Bad bad!
Have a good day everyone!
