Hello again. I did 4DS LIS today but skipped the calves part. I used my MatStep and didn't burn as many calories as usual, but at least it was better for my knees that way. Still a fun workout. I pushed myself and lifted heavier than last week, matching Cathe's weight on at least half of it, which is good for me.
Amelia, I need to work on straight leg pushups as well. I was doing a handful before going to my knees but then I started using the Perfect Pushup things and they make pushups so tough! But maybe that will be good for strengthening me to do better regular pushups eventually. I liked all the ideas on that OD thread, too.
Lori, hope your DS gets to feeling better!
Belinda, great workout today. My lower body is all physical therapy stuff right now.
Carrie, I think writing down what you do is helpful, too. I use Excel worksheets for Cathe's workouts and also have some for Amy Bento's and Tracey's workouts, too. Today I looked over what I did last week on the same workout and made sure I bumped a little higher. Also, I write "ouch" next to the weight used if it was really hard to get through--then I don't bump that one up quite as soon.
Stacey, good luck with your sick DS. That's the worst kind of night to go through when your little one is feeling terrible and there's only so much you can do to make it better. {{{{HUGS}}}}
Kristine, sounds like you were busy today--hope you got in a fun workout.
Shannon, glad you got your house back to yourself. It's great to have visitors but sometimes even nicer when they leave.
Cheryl, hope you're feeling better!
