Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't been on for a few days. Sunday was gorgeous outside, but my allergies kicked in big time. I couldn't breathe. I was literally sneezing every two minutes. Ugh! I did not even work out. I was able to walk the dog, but that was it. The last two days I could not work out either, between work and my son's baseball games, I did not get home the last two nights until after 8. Anyway, I did a jog with the dog today and then picked up with STS again. I did M2 D16, CST. I have to say, some of the weights were too heavy for me, especially the tricep work. I find that with certain muscles, once I struggle, I cannot get the weight up, and that is especially true with triceps and me. I had to lower my weight for the tricep extensions and then again with the side leaning overhead extensions. Oddly enough, I was able to do my 1RM for the kickbacks. Weird.
Belinda- were your eyes swollen from the allergies too, lol. Even though I suffered on Sunday, I was happy to feel sunshine on me. Loving the spring weather this week

Cookie- well NY parents have spoken. . . wonder if the governor can hear us now. I don't know what your opt out numbers are upstate, but here on Long Island, most districts are reporting at least 50% opt out. A student of mine before break saw me in the hallway on my duty and said I looked down. I said yes, I am feeling down and he came back with, "Man got you down, huh?" I nodded. Well, today, he sees me in the hallway again and he raises a fist in the air as he says to me, "I stuck it to the man for you, Mrs. Antinoro." I asked, "What man?" He answered, "Cuomo." I was surprised that he would know what is going on being as though he's a 13 year old kid and he really has no parents. He is being raised by his grandmother because his mom is in jail and the grandmother refused to come to school for a meeting last year. He said he watches the news and every time he hears something that Cuomo wants to do to teachers, he thinks of me and thinks it isn't right. He said I was the best teacher he ever had. . . made my day! Heck, made my year!
Christinae- LOL at your cats hiding when you are doing all the jumping with 4DS BC. I wish I had that problem. If I don't fence my dog, Baxter, in the den when I do a workout (he's a boxer), he wil jump right on me and get me to the ground. . . he's so quiet when he does it too, lol. I'de rather he hide in fear, haha.
Wendy- I get so frustrated when I can't get a step routine down. I prefer the athletic step routines to the dancier ones. I really love PRS 2, and have been on the fence about getting the first one because I heard through the forums that the routine is so complicated. The first time I did Athletic Step, I fell, lol.
Is Deb in Montreal or in Florida again? She is one lucky girl!
