Morning girls,

How are you all this morning? I am doing 4DS upper sometime today. DD15 goes to camp and DS has soccer practice. I had company over the weekend so I didn't get my grocery shopping done.

Laurie, hope you had a great vacation. It is at least nice the mosquitos don't pop out until 9 pm or so. We missed you.

Sue, what fun thiings did you do over the weekend? The baseball must be over now with the tournaments you went to last weekend?

Susan, 'Was this the weekend you got to get together with some of your friends? Hope you got good workouts in.

How do you all like the new Cathe Nation site?

Have a great day.
 
Hi everyone!

I had a great time with my friends this weekend. I ate too much and drank a little too much and now feel like a bloated fish but hey, it was worth it! The only workout I got in Saturday was a 1 hour walk with Ruby and then AB work. Today was a walk and then Supersets. I might jump on the elliptical after lunch.

Laurie, how was your vacation?

Sue, hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Karen, sounds like a busy few days for you. Hope things get back to normal now!

Have a great day- Susan
 
Hi again, do any of you guys know how to find where your 1Rm is listed in this system after you have calculated it and saved it? I sure wish Icould have gotten in with my old user name I just kept having problems. Oh well. Talk to you soon.
 
hmmmm

No I don't know!

I had to re-set my password for some reason...

Anyway, how do you add in your daily workouts? I can't see where/how to add it in. I've been messing aorund for the past hour and just don't know...
 
We won!! We won!! We won!!

This is what I wanted to post on Friday but the Forums were down:

In case you haven't figured it out from the subject line, DS' team won their game last night at Helfaer Field! :) :) :)

It was such a great game and those boys played their little hearts out. I am so proud. It was tied up 6-6 after 5 innings and even though they were over their time limit, they had to play another inning. Our team was the visiting team so we went first and scored 2 runs. Our boys were getting great hits last night. :) Even boys who haven't done very well hitting this season were getting hits. When the other team went up to bat, our pitcher faced 2 of their best hitters with 2 men on base. They had 1 out. We caught a fly ball deep in the outfield for another out and the pitcher struck out the last guy. Woo hoo!! I don't know who was more ecstatic - the parents or the boys. ;-) The boys all threw their hats in the air in celebration and had their picture taken underneath the scoreboard. This was truly an experience they will never forget.

Karen - All the tournaments are done now but DS still has 4 league games left. Tryouts for next year are Aug. 9 so we/DS have to decide if he tries out for another team or quits baseball next year. I'm no help to you on 1 rep max. Haven't played or read enough to figure things out.

Susan - I had to reset my password, too.

DS overheard one of the dads talking about conditioning and getting ready for football so DS asked me after his game yesterday if I would go for bike ride with him. DS has a BMX-type bike with small tires so he can't go as fast as I can. We went 13 miles and my heart rate never even made it into my zone. I wanted to go faster but DS couldn't keep up. He kept wanting to stop and rest, too and that's when the mosquitos got me. He was cute though. During one of the stops he asked me "What's conditioning?"

This morning was 4DS Back/Biceps. Hoping to do cardio tonight.

Have a great day!

Sue
 
way to Go!

Congrats to your DS on winning his game! Great job! I had to chuckle about your bike ride. Sounds like the ones I go on with my kids. It's "quality time" though and that's what counts!
 
Sue, congrats on the win. I am so happy they won a game before the end of their season.

Susan, sorry I can't help you with anything on this website, can't even figure out what I'm doing.
 
I finally figured out how to add the workout in. Click on Calendar.

Now I can sleep peacefully! LOL
 
Good Morning

Hi BB's,

Today is my ride with the group. I never know how far or how hard until we get going.

Susan, glad you figured out how to put in your workout. Hope you got some sleep now. I meant to tell you, you are very pretty.

Sue, I hope your DS team wins more games. Let's go for wins on the last 4 games. Is DD done with SB?

Have a great day.
 
Hi again, I can't get into the calendar anymore. It just keeps saying It's missing a token. Can you guys get in?
 
HI!

Hello fellow BB's!

I started Cathe's July Rotation yesterday so today is Pilates Max. Burn and 30mn on the elliptical. I am a little sore after Supersets yesterday(biceps). Thanks for the compliment, Karen! :)

Sue, hope your son enjoys the rest of the season. My DS will be done with soccer on Saturday and done with baseball next Monday!

DD11 lost her eyeglasses yesterday. We turned this house upside and backwards looking for them. A couple weeks ago she lost her Nintendo DS. Needless to say we were not happy with her last night. Well, while I was looking through my magazine rack next to my bed last night, I found her glasses! She must of placed them on my night stand and then they got knocked down. She was lucky I was looking for one of my Oxygen Magazines! Then today, I drove over to the High School just to see if anyone might have turned in her Nintendo during Summer School. Well, no one had, but the secretary let me into the band room and we found it! Morgan was very happy to have both items returned! Hopefully she will keep better care of them now.

Have a good day! Susan
 
Hi! I just joined Buff Badgers! Was out skating and now have to spend a couple of hours mowing the lawn! My two DDS and I are going to skate a half marathon in Sept in Duluth. I have done the full marathon on skates, but think the half will be fun with DDs. BTW, anyone who runs a marathon...WOW is all I can say!
 
Susan - Love your avatar! Karen is right - you are very pretty. :)

Karen - I keep getting an error when I go into Workout Manager. If I keep closing down my browser and trying again and again, eventually I get in. Definitely some bugs in this software! Do you guys get email notifications when a thread you're subscribed to has new entries? I don't anymore and I'm definitely subscribed. DD has 4 more softball games left - 2 double-headers this Wednesday and next to makeup for rain-outs. Have fun on your group ride tonight! I wish I could go with you but I doubt I could keep up. Do you bike on trails? We live near the Glacial Drumlin trail so we ride on that.

Hi, Lala1 and welcome! :) I'm in awe of anyone who would skate a marathon, too. I'm not a very good skater so I'd be afraid of running into something/someone or going too fast down a hill. Good cardio though.

Didn't do any cardio last night. I was tired, sunburnt, mosquito-bitten and just plain didn't wanna. Went outside for a 4 mile jog/walk this morning. Had to force myself to get out of bed this morning but once I got going it felt good.

Sue
 
Neat

lala, so you roller ski or roller blade in races. My DH wants to get into that. How neat you get to do a half with you DD's. How far did you go today? Have fun cutting the lawn. I just read an article in Silent Sports about people going back to push lawnmowers etc. instead of riding. Enjoy your day.

Sue, I don't bike on trails, just on the road. Sat. DH and I rode to Dallas and back it took 3 hours. Wish you could come with me too. Lots of time to chat. Take care. I can't get into anything anymore. I'll wait and see when the software gets some kinks out of it.

Hi Lala1 and welcome aboard! Looking forward to getting to know you better! I believe anyone who can run/walk/skate/or crawl a marathon to be awesome! LOL! It sounds like you and your DD will have a lot of fun! Have fun lawnmowing! That's always my Thursday workout! Man, do I sweat! :O

Sue, good job getting your run in this morning! It is so nice out today since the humidity is down finally!

Karen, have fun on your ride tonight!

Susan
 
Hi BB's

Last nights ride was 40 miles with some good sprint work. At one time DH and I pulled at 30 mph. Today will be 4DS Legs/calves and GS floorwork.

Hope you all have a great day.

lala, saw in your bio you accepted Christ 33 years ago. For me it was 23 years.
 
Hello!

Wow, Karen, 40 miles?! Sounds like you had a good workout there! I see today you will get in a good lower body workout!

Today is Step,Jump & Pump for me. I will be taking the kids to the beach this afternoon. I wish it was always this nice, drier weather. I am sure the humidity will be back soon so I better enjoy this while it's here!

Hi Lala! What's on your agenda today?

Hello Sue, did ya get up early today again?

Enjoy the day! Susan :)
 
Karen - Good job on the 40 miles! I think that'd take me a whole weekend to do. 30 mph is really moving along.

Susan - No, I didn't get up early. Taking a rest day today because I'm tired. Looking forward to sleeping in on Saturday.

Hi, Lala!


DS won another baseball game last night! It was a team they beat earlier in the season so it proves it wasn't a fluke. Another game tonight plus DD has a softball double-header so DH will take 1 kid and I'll take the other.

Sue
 
Good Morning,

Today I am doing some kind of cardio, probably spinning to CC7.

Susan, did you have a good time at the beach? It looks like rain here today. Does it look that way by you too.

Sue, yea for DS team. Wow, they are on a roll. On a bike that many miles really isn't much. You could do it, no problem. Hope you get some rest and feel more energized today.

Have a wonderful day.
