40's and hot - week of 8/14/11

Hi girls! Today did TF. I had work meetings today and two more tomorrow. Back to work for me! My summer of leisure is over, good thong tho, we need the money after all our issues this last month! Murphy, good for you with CCC! I tend to avoid that one! It is at the bottom of the pile with Hatdcore Extreme! Lisa, I watched that show last week, her and her boyfriend are a little creepy! Haven't watched last night's episode yet. Roxie, I only have Cardio Kicks on VHS, it was my first Cathe. I don't have a player for that anymore, but I save it for memories! Jody, I hide my belly too! After the twins, I could never get it flat again, it is my trouble spot! Might not make it around tomorrow, (with the whole work thing). Talk to you all later, Mary
 
Mary, darn that work getting in the way! Once you watch last night's Bachelor Pad you will get sickened over Vienna and Casey is just ugh! Thought he was a dweeb on bachlorette, think he's a bigger idiot now. I'd like to see them both get what's coming to them!
 
Good Morning,

I didn't get a workout in yesterday DH and I went shopping got a new pair of shoes to try zumba on the wii. Tonite is 4ds chest, shoulders and tris and I want to do some abs.

Lisa-the final temp here yesterday was 93 with a heat index of 100.
 
quick check in as I've been gabbing at work and it's getting late so I better get work done! Anyway, I did HR legs and STS TB legs. My legs didn't know what was up since I haven't done weights on legs for a while since doing these hikes.

I'll peek in here later, have a great day!
 
Lisa, I haven't done either of those but I am guessing the two piggy backed together were pretty challenging!

I did LIS->HIS cardio combo and core from KB. Rained out on my run yesterday. I might do bi and tri but trying to keep balance so I can do it if I get other stuff done first.
 
Good Evening,

DH and I went out to eat with youngest DD and her BF then I came home and did 4ds chest, tris and shoulders and then shape abs. I am still behind 2 cardios but I will get them caught up.
 
No sleep last night so no work out today. :-( I did just have 1/2 glass of white wine and since I am not a drinker, I am feeling it. So, I really don't care that I had an unplanned rest day. Hmm, maybe I should start drinking more wine... :)

Roxie - I did not know theWII had Zumba. Where have I been?

Lisa - Are you crazy doing those two together? OMG!

Hi to everyone.

Murphy
 
Good Morning,

I am joining the no sleep club exhausted today. Tonite for me is 4ds legs and b&g floor work.

Murphy-I knew they had one for the wii but it took me forever to try and find someone who had it in stock. My dd has a PS3 and she wants Zumba for christmas and I am having a tough time finding it for her.
 
Hey howdy ho,

Scheduled to to 4DS bi and tri and later a TKD/Barn run but cracked the wrapper on Cardio and Weights and did that this morning. It was fun and I felt like I hit my bi and tri enough to count, the core part was good too. Might still jog later...weather and spirits permitting.

Murphy, I've found that wine has diminishing returns. dang it.

I have a friend who teaches zumba, looks fun, but I've never tried it. Only so many hours in the day. Roxie, will your dh do the zumba w/ you?

Happy workouts , all.

Jody-you are to funny the only form of exercise I can get DH to do is bike ride and we don't to that to often.
 
I did Kick Max minus leg cond drills. I have DOMS in my hamstrings from yesterday's workout so made some of the kicks interesting :)

I hate to say it but I've been sleeping great, but DH did move around this morning at 5 and that woke me up, good thing because otherwise I would have slept in too late to do a proper w/o.

Zumba looks fun, I can't imagine anyone's DH doing it for some reason?

Jody, one thing about kickboxing is it works the core really well, maybe that will help the muffin top? Although you don't have much of one!

Roxie, it's gonna be HOT here, 99, will break a record, the mountain town I was in last week is 74, oh how I want a summer home there!

Murphy, Did you steal the sandman from Roxie?

Mary, how was back to work?
 
Hi girls! No workout yesterday, those meetings gave me a headache! Hours of meetings and I am not really quite sure what I gained from them! Today did GS C&T and a couple of miles on the TM. I know for a fact my DH would never do Zumba! It does look like fun, maybe someday I will try a class. Lisa, still haven't watched Bachelor Pad, DH is at the station today, so I should have time. He teases me relentlessly about those shows! So I wait till he is at the fire station! Murphy, did you sleep last night? Roxie, hope you sleep tonite! Jody, C&W is fun, I should pull it out someday soon! Just got a call, the kids were supposed to go back to school on Wed., nowit has been delayed until the next week! :(. I have been waiting for a little quiet time! Have a good day! Mary
 
Okay, visiting my parents, kids eventuall went to sleep, I got to bed and was does DH do? SNORE like crazy all night. I took a nap this afternoon and the kids keep coming in to talk - *)&^*(*(&%*&. Okay, I see I will have to go back to work to get some rest!
 
Ugh to no sleep, you guys. No sleep saps energy. : (

Mary, I love having a house to myself w/ no one around. My younger dd is chatty and likes company. She is delightful, but I get social'd out.

Lisa, you may have said the magic words that would make me try the KB.

Re dancing men/zumba, there used to be a guy who took bellydance at my studio. Also there are men who are Egyptian "masters" and teach bellydance at the big workshops. Actually, there is a choreographer who teaches bollywood at studio, now. I'm sharing this for no apparent reason, was just thinkin'. Bellydance doesn't seem like a guy dance but there you go. So maybe you can get those hubbys up and start cha cha cha- ing. :0
 
Good Evening,

Ok I am not a leg girl I hate leg days and since I am incredibly tired I am just going to do them tomarrow tonite is a chill night so hopefully I will sleep better.

Jody-watching so you think you can dance I have seen a choreographer do bollywood and its cool but I know Dh it just wouldn't happen exercise is a bad word to him. I was hoping after I got him to quit smoking almost 2 years ago that he would do more but not happening.

Murphy-I use to hate it when I tried to take a nap and the kids wanted to talk I can't sleep during the day anyway so it really sucked.

Lisa-the day ended 95 degrees with a heat index of 104.
 
Good Morning Ladies,

I got a great nights sleep don't remember anything after my head hit the pillow. Tonite I still need to make up that leg work and if its cool and not storming take the dog for a walk. I just made a commitment to my oldest DD to get up every morning at 5am and go for a walk with her. She has a very stressful job and they are trying to have a baby so she needs some kind of stress relief. It was 66 here this morning felt great.
 
Happy Friday! I did 4DS total UB premix. And then I walked 2 miles on TM while I read since I'm working from home today and won't get in my walking around the buildings.

Roxie, I think that sounds great to walk with your DD. Unless of course you aren't a morning person :)

Murphy, hope you got some sleep! I get less sleep on vacation time sometimes too but it's normally for a fun reason ;)

Mary, My DH thinks I'm crazy watching those shows too.

Jody, If I concentrate on my punching I can really feel it in my obliques after a couple KB workouts. Give them a try! (this from someone who has never been a lover of KB, but now it's grown on me).

Have a great weekend everyone! Not exactly sure what we are doing.
