I did not see a thread so I went ahead and started one. Today I did not feel like getting up, it is raining hard out there and I just wanted to lay there and relax. It is supposed to rain all week here. We need the rain but all at once??? Anyway, I did ab work so I could say I did something. It is a far cry from the Intensity that I had planned to do but ...

Lisa - Happy Birthday to you.

Hi to everyone who follows.

Murphy
 
Hey there everyone. Slept in late, 8am, gasp! So have been playing catch up with all I wanted to do. I did get in CTX UB PM and 2 miles read/walk on TM. Now hoping to relax and read the rest of the day, however I know both DS's will be dropping by tonight. I lost a lb (even with eating a lot during the hike) so barely got to the goal I set for myself, now shooting for another 2 lbs by Labor Day. I'd sooooo like to eat more right now :) You know, chocolate sounds great, I'm really needing willpower right now!

Murphy, when it rains it pours, literally! Thanks for the birthday wishes, I've been busy responding to them, I can't believe it's already 2 pm. We need more hours in the day! Ab work is better than nothing, maybe you'll get energy later in the day!

Jody, was looking at your pics on FB, dang you rock that belly dancing outfit!
 
Good Afternoon,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA! This morning I did SM #1 and then later I want to do #2. Spent the afternoon at the pool with oldest DD and her Dh and youngest DD joined us now we are getting ready to eat supper.
 
Good Sun eve~ I did 4DS Legs and 2 dance classes today- wiped out now, must muster energy to head out and get dog food or the corgis will be a pain in the bootie come breakie time.

Lisa, hope your BD day is a nice one, with or w/o chocolate. : ) Thanks for the compliment on my costume pix. I am hating the muffin top- must destroy!! Dance brings so much to me- sisterhood and friendship, balance in my fitness, opportunity to overcome obstacles, gain confidence and just plain fun; dressing up, giggling with friends and listening to music.

Roxie, how did you all fit in the kiddie pool?

Mary, good idea on the abs. I hope you enjoyed the rest of the rainy day. Raining here, too.

I am going to work thru 4DS again this week (except KB, does anyone want to talk me into that?) and prob do some sort of HIIT w/o on TKD/Barn days. Are you sticking to your rotation, Roxie?

Niters
 
Jody, When you figure out how to get rid of the muffin top, fill us in on the secret, k? The only joy I have is in knowing even the teenagers have one! ;)
4DS legs sounds like one I've been wanting to do, but will all the hikes I've been avoiding leg w/o's so that my legs are fresh. I hope to start STS again in a month or so. I still think you look great!

Jody-that was funny about the kiddie pool but we went to the city pool it has a surf area a lazy river, slides and diving boards. I am on week 3 of the rotation so starting 4ds this week. What I don't understand is Bis and back are worked twice this week.
 
Hi girls! Lisa, hope that you had a great birthday! Hope you had fun with your boys! DH did amazing in his race! He placed 15th overall and 1st in his division (mountain bike) and he took 6 minutes off his time from last year. Now, he wants to do a 1/2 marathon next month. Not sure what w/o to do today. Murphy, raining here too, at least it is cooler. Roxie, are you guys still hot? Jody, you don't like kickboxing? The one from 4DS is quick. Hope everyone has a good Mon, I need to go buy school supplies today. Talk to you later, Mary
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is 4ds back and bis. It is so nice and cool here today I plan on walking the dog later.
 
Hi everyone, today was LIC Cardio Timesaver.

Mary, that's awesome about your DH! I think you should join him in the half marathon!

Roxie, up to 90s here again, so get ready! :)
 
Ok, did 4.5 miles on the TM and did the heavy bag from Amy. Lisa. don"t think I will ever do a race! I do better at home all by myself!
 
Lisa, that LIC premix was one of my staples and is one of my very faves. I'm avoiding it b/c I won't force myself to learn all the other cardio I have if I start back up with it. I agree, the teens have the muffin tops, too. I have STS, but haven't cracked the wrapper. I need to lurk and learn. Let us know when you start it again.

Mary, congrats on the athletic achievements in your family! Nope, for some reason I don't love kickbox. I think its the punches. And the kicks. hmmm. I should at least try the one from 4DS tho.

Murphy, I noticed you got a chat response w/ Cathe today. : ) coolio! Do you have spin bike at home? I ride my bike outside pretty often but it isn't like doing a spin w/o.

Roxie, you seem to do a good job w/ follow thru on your work outs. What a nice day w/ family you had~ I love water parks.

Today i did HIS, chest, back and core. Still working on 3rd combo and redid it a few times. Wts were a little off, too. Oh well. Its all good- just need to clean up my diet.

Take care
 
Good Evening,

Tonite I did 4ds back and bis and then took the dog for a 2 mile walk. It is nice and cool out this evening.

Jody-I am usually not this diligent but I have a family reunion to go to and I want to look good and when I wore my bikini to the pool which I usually don't wear out in public I felt really good about my self.

Lisa-I don't mind 90 degree weather its the hundreds I don't like.
 
Roxie, I think if tummies are exposed to the sunshine, the cellulite and globby bits may possibly disintegrate in shame. That is my theory and an extra bonus to wearing a bikini. And why I sometimes take my tummy out for a bike ride. : D
 
No tummy exposing for me :( The kids did that in. Even my skinny (barely size 2) GF's tummy is stretched out from kiddos.

Mary, I'm with you on being in your own little workout world.

Is anyone watching Bachelor Pad? That Vienna is sooo irritating!

Jody, I started out not liking KB, and 4DS one was the only one I could really handle (probably because it is short). But ya know, it's grown on me.

Roxie, I thought our 90s turned into your 100s. It was HOT today, ugh!
 
Today I did one of the premixes from CCC. It was bearable. I might actually do it again.

Jody - I don't have a spin bike but I am thinking about it. Maybe around the holidays when everyone is supposed to have sales. I figure, if I start saving now I might have the money by then. Also, that is why I asked if she plans to do more. I would hate to make the investment and she only did one. I do like spinning but I am spoiled and only want Cathe.
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is suppose to be Cardio Kicks but I don't like that one so I am going to do either KCMs KBXing or TLC Boxing.

Jody-I like your thinking.

Lisa-its really humid here today and suppose to get up into the 90's so it will probably feel like 100's.

Murphy-good job with your workout.
 
Today I slept in late, again! I think my body is just tired as I've been sleeping 8-9 hrs a night (sometimes 10!). anyways, I pulled a Murphy and only did abs, CM seg 2.
 
Jody, I have a spin bike but don't like spinnning or biking. My bum hurts even with padded shorts, actually my bum is numb already from sitting in this chair at work, I sit too much! I hope Cathe makes me like spinning.
