Hi and good morning,

I will take a rest day today! Didn't get any sleep last night, I am excusted! I promise I will catch up with personals tomorrow!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
 
Good Morning:)

I had to go back to work last night so I didn't get to bed until 12'ish and up at 7. Not to bad but I think I like more sleep;) Don't we all? DS is up with me as well and he is no where near being done sleeping. He came out in our bed around 6:50 and my alarm was set for 7, he didn't have enough time to settle back in and there was no way he was gonna lie in bed.

I don't think I came back yesterday. I had a good workout...esp for early morning. I did Kari Andersons abs, 30 mins on the TM, 15 mins on the bike and standing working of LBB. I also used my new kettlebells for most of the lunges and even in the lunges where Cathe doesn't use any weight and the paper plate lunges. I have some nice DOMS going on in my hammies and bum:D

Belinda** Sorry to hear you didn't sleep well, thats a bummer! Hope you get to catch up on some z's today.

Ameila** I don't know how people who don't work do it either. I am sure once you are use to it, its o.k and some people are just meant to stay home. I need some what of a social gathering. After being home all week with DS, I am in the mood to dress up and do paper work. Hope your cravings are subsided. My eating was off track for a while as well, seems to be better now.

Helene** DId you get a workout in??

Melissa** Oh....2 lbs loss and a couple of rest days! You show 'um how its done;) Whats a rest day anyway? LOL I am thinking my rest day will be the day we leave to go away. Our flight leaves at 8. But knowing me I will be so excited that I will get up at 4 to workout...lol.

Deb** Sounds like you enjoyed your yoga class. Something I need to get into more.

Iris** Glad you feel better about the D(?) situation....I can't remember what letter you were using! LOL Sounds like you are back into the swing of a hectic life style. I should be able to get time to look at the website today.

Its crappy weather here today. Yesterday it seemed as if spring was in the air and now we are back into the middle of winter again!!! I am off tomorrow b/c I switched with Wed which is kinda nice actually. I am looking forward to having tomorrow off while DH is off as well.

I will def bbl!
Lori:)
 
Good Morning Ladies

Today is rest day today. I have an early boot camp class...condensed the two back to back classes this morning since I have a couple of people out. So far, I dont' have anyone signed up for the noon machine orientation at the gym, so I might jet out early today? :cool:

Yesterday morning did 40/20 and GS Triceps.....stopped back into the gym to meet my friend and did some core and "cardio"...which was just basically mountain climbers, jumping jacks....and such. Today I will rest....again...lol.

Belinda- I think you have definitely earned a rest day! Enjoy!

Lori- I am back in the swing of things, definitely. :) I need to stop worrying about any and all "D's...lol. So let me know what you think of CSF. We'll have to have client chats again on fb.

Deb- I'm sorry about DH bugging you...:( Are you looking at the Cathes April Rotation?

Helene- I'll call you later?? Doing laundry down at my parents. I know you and DH might be out and about doing your thing, so if not today, I'm home all day tomorrow!!

Amelia- I think inner thigh doms are the best!! :eek: ;) Why so many days off from work? Is that just kinda how it worked out?

Melissa- Nice workout yesterday!!! It ended up just being a cold, rainy, pissy day here! Some snow, but nothing that really stuck.

Hi to Trish, Kristin, and Cookie! BBL
 
Good morning ladies!

I have to mail my taxes in today. I've had them sitting on my desk for 2 weeks; all I had to do was sign them so I dunno why I procrastinated such a simple thing lol :confused: I also need to send in my volunteer app to the hospital so I can start getting hours. Geesh it's like a huge process to become a volunteer! Who knew?! Then I'm going up to CT for my best friend's bday. He is cooking so I need to really watch what I eat because there is gonna be a lot of food and I ate WAY over plan last night! Also plan on doing some kind of cardio, not sure what yet.

My quads are on fire today, I'm thinking from the running?

Amelia, my eating last night was AWFUL! I have no clue where it came from; I was just hungry like a beast! Sorry to hear your shopping trip was a bust :( I could never stay home everyday; my brother works from home and I don't know how he does it. I would go crazy! I'm in the house for a few hours and I need to get out. I am so like my dad; my mom says we share a brain.

Helene, yeah I've been throwing in HIITs. I remember how great they helped me with my skiing so I thought they would do the same with running. I just DREAD 40/20 lol!

Deb, sorry to hear about DH driving you nuts. Hopefully yoga helped calm you down!

Belinda, get some rest!! ;)

Lori, great WO yesterday and great job on the DOMS! OMG whenever we go away I wake up so early to WO cuz I am excited! You will prob start the check-in that day ;) You never do take a rest day huh?! :eek:

Iris, hopefully you'll get out early today. I think the weather is supposed to be nice. Yesterday was nasty here too, on & off with rain and snow. Just think, in 2 weeks we will prob have 1 of those freak 90 degree days :confused:

Enjoy the weekend, girls!!
 
Hey Girls,

Well...my day is off to a weird start. At first I wasn't impressed but after I started thinking about it and I will cope just fine. When I got into work my manager was here but he also knew that I was here last night until midnight. We have a book where we make notes for the next gal coming in (if she needs to know anything) He has a big note basically saying that effective immediately our day must start at 8:30 and end at 4:30. I was a little ticked at first but it also dawned on me that he didn't even have the nerve to tell me to my face! LOL He was probably afraid I would put my notice in. Anyway....then I started thinking...I only work every 2nd week and its only mon and tues that there is a problem b/c DS needs to be picked up at 4. I guess I will have to rely on DH to help out more and I will have to get my workouts in in the evening. No point in getting all stressed about it.

My workout was HR UB and abs, 20 mins on the TM, 40/20 and then HIC UB work and a little of the LB work as well.

Iris** ANOTHER rest day?;):p Did you do alot more weight training when you were concentrating on your figure competition? My client base as stayed the same so I have adjusted to most of their habits. I did have one girl who was going away on a trip and I told her that she should work out while she was away...she didn't have anything else to do, right? So she was determined that she was gonna get to that gym! The week before she left she said "even if I don't MAKE IT to the gym, Im going to do some pushups and stuff in my room":confused: Right then and there I knew she wasn't going to do anything b/c who can't "make it" somewhere when they are on a resort with nothing to do but eat and drink. Not as if they had a agenda of things to do. Of course she didn't do a tap and is up 5 lbs.

Melissa** I don't take planned rest days. Some days my workouts are longer then others though. I think my next rest day will be in the future though and may even be this wed if I have to be here by 8:30!:mad: Volunteering is probably tough b/c there are so many wacko's out there...they wanna know your harmless! LOL

BBL!

Hi again! My brother got me Shaun T's Insanity and I was finally brave enough to try it. I did the plyo circuit WO today; actually wasn't as bad as I expected and it was fun, but pretty tough esp the last drill. Also threw in some Imax 2, intervals 6-10 premix!

Lori, sorry about your boss. Try not to stress about it; just think of the beautiful vacation you will be taking soon!!! LMAO @ your client not working out on vacation. My family thinks I'm nuts cuz I WO everytime we go away. I feel if I get a good one in then I don't have to worry as much about what I eat/drink while I'm away. Haha good point about the wacko volunteers ;)
 
Hi girls,

I finally opened Step Moves DVD today and basically tripped over both of my left feet, I only lasted 30 min. and will try another day. At least my HR did go up, but thinking about doing something else small to do today:confused:

Today is my younger DS's birthday and we're going to his favorite Japanese restaurant on the NY thruway with their gf's too:)

Belinda - Were you out dancing last night?:)

Lori - Now that your doing PT you seem to get along better with your boss no matter what he throws at you:) I'm not like you guys if I get up early day of vacation it's usually to finish packing:eek:

Iris - Have fun with Helene today and enjoy your rest day:)

Melissa - Have fun at your friend's party . . . it's nice to have someone else doing the cooking.

Hi to Amelia, Trish, Kristin, Helene & Cookie

Have a great weekend:)
 
Hey all. Today has been great so far. I had to pick up the team equipment and uniforms. I think they gave the wrong uniforms though because we are team 3 and all the hats have 2 on them. Then I took my sons and nephew to the field for a "practice." We practiced hitting off the tee, running the bases and catching. The only problem I see is getting 10 five years olds all to listen long enough to learn the basics, lol.

Deb- what is funny is that when I first got SM and AS, I thought SM was easy to learn. AS, the first time I did it, I fell off the step and nearly twisted my ankle, lol :eek::eek::eek::eek:.

Melissa- shaun T's Insanity looks so nuts. I cannot believe you did IMAX on top of it. How's the running going?

Lori- that stinks about your boss. He did not even have the BALLS to tell you to your face, what a wimp!

Iris- bootcamp class on a rest day? Does that mean you teach teh BC class?

Belinda- bet you are exhausted will all the packing and what not. Enjoy your rest day!

Hello to Cookie and Helene and Amelia and Trish!

BBL to report my workout. Thinking IMAX 2, now that Melissa mentioned it!
