BFL FRIDAY, BABY!!!!

Good morning, you fine young ladies! Happy Friday!

What's your weekend plan? Weekend GOALS?

For me, I started the weekend this morning with a great workout. Leaner Legs. I have to say that I am SOOOOOO eager for STS because I need some new leg workouts. I know, I know, I should break out the 4DS, but I just can't get myself psyched up about it. SO BRING ON STS!

Today I'm cleaning my friend's house while older DS goes to baseball camp and younger DS to the Rec Program. Then we have a baseball tournament tonight. TOmorrow, more of that tournament along with a basketball game. Sunday is one basketball game. MORE baseball Saturday and Sunday IF we do well in our game tonight and tomorrow morning. SHEESH! When do I ever sit still? lol

As for workouts, I really want to get in a 45 minute run TONIGHT after baseball on the TM. We'll see if that happens...it depends on what time the game is over. Tomorrow will be either cardio (if I didn't get a run in tonight) or upper body (if I did)!

Anybody confused???

Time to get the day started in this household!

Hi to everone!

Gayle and Belinda: Thank you for the BBW rotation! Wow!!!

Gayle: Great job this morning on Leaner Legs! Today I plan on Legs & Glutes. My calves are still sore from mondays GS legs! I might have to skip calf raises if it is called for. ;-)

This weekend will be canoe trips and the Prudential Center in Boston. We are taking the train into Boston to take the elevator to the top and enjoy the skyline and restaurant there. I hope DS (youngest) can handle the ride in the elevator...he hates elevators and heights! He and I might be taking the stairs!
What a butt workout that would be!}(

Off to my workout! BBL Heidi

Hello to all I missed!:7
ETA: Hi Amelia!!! Enjoy your day with your niece!
 
good morning Heidi,your weekend sounds so awesome! I hope your ds goes on the elevator for you,but ifnot like you said,you'll get a good leg workout going up those stairs,lol;-)!
 
Hey guys!!!

Amelia-enjoy that precious baby! I LOVE BABIES and it was only recently that I've decided I DON'T want anymore. For a long time, I really STILL wanted one....but I think I'm past that point.

Heidi-your weekend sounds AWESOME! I vote you take the stairs ANYWAY! lol

Gayle
 
Morning!
Gayle – Great workout! I’m with you….I can’t wait until STS is released!

Amelia – Awww, enjoy your niece! Babies are such a joy, I miss having one too sometimes but the next baby in my life will probably be a grand baby. ;)

Heidi – What a fun weekend you have planned! There’s a small river a few miles from us that we’ve gone tubing on but never in a canoe….how fun! The restaurant sounds awesome!

Well, let see…. On Wednesday I did Push Pull which I hadn’t done in a very long time! What a great full body workout, Cathe leaves no muscle untouched, lol. I went as heavy as I could and felt great after. I took a rest day on Thursday. This morning I tried out the hour long cardio workout from Mitch Gaylord’s Melt It Off (called Citius) using the 2 lb. medball that came with the set. I really liked this one! The choreography is very basic (all athletic moves) but it kept my heartrate elevated through the whole thing. I burned about 400 calories (not quite as much as a run) but it was fun. :)

Weekend plans include working in the yard, working in the yard, and oh, yeah…working in the yard, lol! ;)

Good morning girls,

I didn't get my workout in until late last night! BM2 double UB is tough! I went really heavy and boy did was I feeling my UB!

My hot water is out, I am not sure when I get my workout in!

Today I will do 4 DS BC/KB premix!

Heidi - you very welcome!

Kathy - PP is a good one! It is on my rotation next week! I also haven't done it in awhile!

Gayle - great job on your workout this morning! I am ready for STS!

Amelia - enjoy your weekend with your niece! What rotation are you going to do next week?

Belinda

Belinda
 
Hello,

I am finished with my leg workout and abs. Phew!!!
Legs & Glutes (even the calf raises! all of them with no cheating!)
I did have a hard time with the floor leg sweeps however. I did eight each leg only.
Abs from CTX all abs #2

Time for a shower and go grocery shopping!

Kathy: Great job on PP! I did this not too long ago and was sore for days after! Today's workout sounds interesting as well. How is the training going for your upcoming race?

Belinda: BM2 Dbl upper is tough but you did it!!! }( Have fun with 4DS BC/KB later! My DD did a kickbox workout the other day and she is having trouble moving her legs two days later!:+ I told her it was tough!

Have a great day everyone! Gayle: good luck to your boys and their upcoming games.

Take Care,
BBL Heidi
 
Belinda – I’m putting PP in my taper rotation in a couple of weeks!

Heidi – My 50k training is going well! I have one more long run next weekend (7/19 or 7/20). I’m hoping to hit 24 miles so I have a good base to work off of for the race. The RT is the following weekend then I start the taper down until 8/10, race day. :)

Oh, I didn’t register online for the duathon tomorrow and find myself in a “tight” financial position. I really can’t justify the $75 race day registration fee and gas because I have to save money to register for a couple of Fall college courses. I’ve been working on a degree for YEARS and it’s time for me to finish it up, lol. Work news this week kind of lit a fire under my rear end on that one.

I did pay for the 50k race and the Cathe RT so those I can enjoy them “guilt” free. :D I'm thinking of doing my "own" duathlon tomorrow instead. :)

Hello all!

Didn’t get home from the fair until late last night. We were tired and wet, very wet. The clouds opened up and we were dumped on. Need to get in a workout later today – looks like the consensus is legs but I want total body weight work.

Guys get back late tonight from their week long camping adventure. Tomorrow back to the fair – this time the kids compete in the obedience competition. First time they’ve ever done something like this – should make it very interesting!

Gayle – I, too, am eagerly waiting for STS! Hope you get to run – I’ll do that tomorrow.

Amelia – Enjoy that sweet baby!

Heidi – Cool, a canoe trip. I was seriously eyeing a kayak at the REI garage sale, but since it said it leaked, just couldn’t even try.

Kathy – I’m sure you’ll have fun doing your “own” duathlon.

Belinda – Love those DOMS. And that’s a great cardio workout for today – I like both of those so much.

Ok, back to work. Have a great rest of the day!
 
Hey,girls

well I caved and did a cardio I did Bm2 timesavor cardio and i feel alot better

ok,just popping in
 
Hi girls,

I feel like crying today!( I have been trying to call our builder all morning for my hot water heater, with no luck! Nobody is picking up the phone! So I called my DH friend how lives close by and he told me there is something wrong with the igniter! At this point I was hoping it was something simple! On the water heater was a 180 phone number, which my DS called! Can you believe this, there is a civil law suit going on with the igniter! What am I going to do without hot water for a week? They need to sent in a part, God knows where! They told DS the part will not be shipped until Monday! Honestly I have tears in my eyes, I am so mad! I can't believe all this s&&& is happening to me! I haven't worked out, because I have been on the phone all day! I have never in my life have so much going on in such a short period of time! First my washer then the dishwasher( I went through hell with that one!) and now my hot water heater! What is going on? We bought a brand new house!

Sorry for venting! I think I will get in my workout! Than take a freezing cold shower! That gonna wake me up!

Belinda
 
Ohhhh Belinda! It seems when things go wrong...they really go wrong!
So sorry for all your troubles lately!

Amelia: Great job on your workout!:7

BBL Heidi
 
Aww, I’m so sorry Belinda! I hope they can get it fixed soon! ((big hug))

I agree about thinking you shouldn’t have these kinds of problems with a new house! We’ve only had our house a little over a year and the air conditioner has had to be fixed twice and the hot water heater once! We just found out that the builder put the smallest possible air conditioner for the size of our house and it has to be upgraded because we’re over taxing it now. Ugh, it never ends!

Kathy
 
Belinda - I am so sorry! It will work out. It will, somehow. If you don't want a workout, take a walk.

I was going to work out until puppy decided to play in the mud, and hence needed a bath. Now I'm worn out and don't really want to cook dinner, but we do have to eat.

Yes, it does never end!
 
Hi girls,

I am done with my workout! I feel a little better! Oh, my TV stopped playing too! DS fixed it! Thank goodness!I will have a glass of wine tonight!}( To much stress for one day! My shower was freezing!

Kathy, new homes shouldn’t have any problems! What really shocked me was when we called the 180# listed on the water heater! They had known about the problem with the heater! Why don’t they fix it, before something goes wrong? Of course, on the weekend no one works! Go figure! My DH had to pay express shipping for the part to come next week! They only pay UPS! Everything takes forever until it arrives in El Paso! My Cathe DVD’s ( UPS) takes 2 weeks! I can’t wait that long!


Sherry, my workout helped with my frustration a little bit! I also don’t want to cook, since I have to do dishes by hand” again”( no hot water!)! Heating up the water with a water cooker is no fun! It is so frustration! I feel like I am going backwards instead for forwards! I had my new dishwasher only 2 weeks! I can’t do laundry either only in cold water!

Have a great evening!
Belinda
