Slept good, got up early, gonna work from home, so I decided to do Tabatacize in it's entirety (pausing it a lot). I got thru it, I probably added 10 min in pauses! I wanted to make sure I was rested enough between the rounds of tabatas and step/recoveries. I figured it was like climbing a 14er mountain, I may be slow but I get there....eventually
Jody, that sounds so cool although I'm like Ronne, you don't have a lb extra on you! I need it more than you! my shirt was fitting me tighter yesterday, I can't expect results overnight, my motto---slow and steady, hoping to be 5 lbs down by end of Feb. I don't know what my phone was typing! I meant to say a few small walks and somehow that turned into festival walks....ah, life wouldn't be as funny without autocorrect (or you!) It's also funny as festival is our password for our super user to all the systems, things that make you say, hmmmmm. Your cat sounds like a character! My cat mostly met us at the door like a dog, she had a lot of dog-like qualities, your's sounds like one independant cat, maybe it depends on getting them as kittens or not (can't remember how old your's is). The cat we had after we got married like to suck my neck like I was it's mother!
Ronne, yea for Xtrain! Can't wait to hear what you think of it. I'd love to follow the rotation but I know right now I would stress more trying to fit in the designated w/o vs picking myself. I didn't do 1RMs, I used Cathe's weight as a guide knowing where I have to lift less than her (chest) and amazingly where I lift more(bi--can you believe that?).
Mary, I must be out of shape, I thought tabatacize was hard, but then I think CCC is too. I saw a thread where CAthe recommended CCC for someone starting out, OMG! I had a nice talk with my FL sister, told her how exhausted I am lately and how I just feel tense and sometimes anxious, it's driving me crazy as it's like I know there is nothing to be anxious about but my body just isn't listening to my brain. She said sounded like menopause (which I was thinking of) and she still feels that way (she's 8 yrs older than me). I have been feeling like my hormones are waaaaaaay off, again, in fact, remember when I started these hormones I had sore boobs a week of the month which means I had more estrogen based on a book I read, I haven't had sore boobs in ages. I can't believe you or Jody aren't complaining more about this "change". I do not like this, at all!
Roxie, I agree, job change AND moving are 2 major stressors, take care of yourself! I LOVE the song 'Everybody Talks' on HardStrikes, I find myself bopping along to the music during that song. I didn't like the music in tabatacize as much, kind of rappy?
Murphy, I'm not sure I like the scarecrows, I haven't done the challenge for them. Love the burnsets though!
