Chinup check in 10/12/06

Melody, I agree that we are probably disappointing HB with all our non-chin discussion. I wish I had better news about them to report, but they've just done me more harm than good and I'm trying to improve my fitness and vitality, not the other way around!

We do talk about chins, though, HB! (At least Briee, Catherine and Boybert do.) And Joanne discusses her attempts and Melody and I discuss our non-attempts.:) There's just a lot to sift through to get to the chin discussion, and I can see how that might bother you if you're here for the chin discussion and not much else.

As far as turning this into a chin/yoga check-in (CYCC :)), that's fine with me (love your titles, Mel), especially since it's kind of what I've been doing all along.;-) A separate yoga check-in would be fine with me too - whatever you want, Melody, since it was your idea.

Hope your day is better today, Briee! {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}
 
Hmmm. I think today we just talk about pie. Yummy, fruity, lucious pie. Pie that is still in my fridge whispering sweet unclean nothings to me :p

K, I will talk chins just a little. I did 5 in a row before spin class today. I feel like my heavy supersetting work for the last three weeks has really bumped things up a notch. I am now back to strength/endurance type weights & maybe more circuits for a bit.

Bye for now yogi pie eating donut loving chinsters :)

You're really reading way too much into this - I merely noted that that purpose of the threads is not chins, or hardly ever, so why not change the name of it? If you tend to talk about yoga more, then call it a yoga thread. I said nothing about being disappointed.

Briee, I'm totally sorry, I completely missed your spinning question! Short answer is, I LOVE spinning! It is a fabulous low impact workout, which my knees and chest, ahem, like ;) You basically control the intensity of your workout with the resistant knob throughout the class and/or home DVD. You can follow exactly, make it a bit easier, make it harder, whatever you need to do to make it work for you. I only take spinning at our gym so I can't tell you about home spinning. I would imagine the bike is rather pricey (at least for me) along with the DVDS, and other equipment. I would say maybe see if you can take a few free classes to see what you think of it first. It is my love along with running :) HTH and ask away.

So who's reading into anything? I think it's fun banter. I like the name of the thread just b/c we're used to it and we know where to find it. Who cares what we talk about. I think it's more the familiar group of supporters ;)

Hey HB,

I wasn't reading anything "into it" at all. I was just joking around about your being "disappointed".

Sorry the talk was erroneously led astray.
 
I did actually think you were disappointed in this check-in, HB. Sounds like I read too much into it. I'm glad to know you're not disappointed - thanks for clarifying!:)
 
Hey all! I finally got my workout in today- TWO DAYS LATE!!!!! I did HSTA without the cardio and did chins between sets. Tough!!! Did a total of 22 again, which is good since it's been almost a week for me. So I am happy with that.

Briee, hope your mom is better!! Hope you feel better!!

Sending out get well fairy dust to all chinsters!!! Just in case for some ;)

I really do enjoy the extraneous conversations we have hear on our thread. But I also enjoy talking about chinups.
