Commit to get Fit & Lean for January 2015

Hey guys. I just finished PLYO Hiit 2 and abs 1. I was thinking of doing the double premix, but I am wiped out, lol. It may be a short workout, but it is intense.

Anyway. . . had a good time yesterday. We had friends over for dinner. Hard to go to work this morning with the freezing rain. I have to hold it together for spring, lol.

Wendy- good job getting the tree down. I put the decorations up, DH takes it all down. Works for me because taking the decorations down always depresses me, lol.

Deb- a heated argument in the theatre? Ridiculous. People are crazy!

Cookie- my dog is going crazy without the walks. I try to do some "doggy workouts" in the house, but it's not the same, I guess. He is crazy!

Belinda- my friend gave me a Chalean Johnson dvd, it has turbo fire workout on it and a stretch and an ab routine. Thinking about giving it a try after this rotation. The only thing I've tried since discovering Cathe a few years back was T25, and it wasn't for me.

Waving hello to Amelia!

Hi,

I took a yoga class today, wanted to also do an STS workout but that didn't happen. I'm working tomorrow, hoping everything was sold LOL.

I'm hoping for warmer temps:)

Belinda - I always wondered about the difference between blenders, thanks for explaining!

Kristin - I like turbofire wondering if you will it's good to throw in for change.

Wendy - Even though my tree is down still need to take down some pillows, wreaths, throw blankets etc. . . so now you are ahead of me;)

Waves hi to Amelia & Cookie

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today is leg day and SBF Mat 2.

Kirstin - I LOVE LOVE Turbo Fire and Turbo Jam. Most fun workout and the music is amazing. Hate to say this but Chalean kickboxing workouts are more fun than Cathe's:( I still love KPC. The one you have is the HiiT 15 min, its a tough little workout. I never got into T25 for some reason. I also find 21 Day Fix is an amazing program. Soon you can get Beachbody on demand, lol.

Debbie - you are welcome:p Since I tried them all out, there is a difference.

Wendy - did you ever checked out Hallo Fresh? That's good you don't have to color your hair every often.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me.
 
Hey girls,

I did RWH LB Circuit Legs instead of XT Legs today. They both circuit style workouts. I thought she did a lot of power 7's in this one:oops: Nothing new in this one, all familiar moves. I think next week I will do RWH UB and LB instead of the XT workouts? The workout was of beat too. Arrr...
 
Hi guys. As you all know, I am following the 2 month rotation for RWH. Well, I did the Chest, Shoulders, Triceps workout Saturday, and still had DOMs today, but the rotation called for the workout again today. I did it, but I am worried I won't be able to put a shirt on tomorrow, lol. I was able to stay with the same weights as last time, until I got to the chest flies. With those, I had to go down. I also had to go down with the triceps. They were shaking the whole time.

Not much else to report. Happy to see the sun out today. My AP was supposed to be doing walk throughs today, and I was happy because I had a fun activity planned for my lesson. He never showed up in my room though, lol. It figures.

Belinda- I love the Lower Body Circuit workout. Even though there are familiar moves, I find myself getting major DOMs with that one. As a matter of fact, my lower body has had consistent DOMS since starting the program. I guess the way the moves are put together "shocks" the body some way? Or maybe I was slacking off on my lower body? Not sure, lol.

Wendy- I have dark hair and have to get it colored often. I got my roots done December 18th and they are already starting to show, those ^%^$%!. :mad::confused::(

Deb- was everything sold? LOL.

Waving hello to Cookie and Amelia!

Kristin
 
'Evening!
Belinda, you won't regret the Vitamix. One of my son's roommates bought a ninja, and ds convinced him to return it and get a Vitamix! To be honest, I was shocked I would spend that much money on a blender, but now I consider it worthwhile. I thought my family only gave grey hair, and I'm not ready to accept I have it yet.
Amelia, waving hi. How's everything.
Kristin, I had to do pd yesterday, and as the group was coming in, they started talking about dogs. OMG, so many of them said how they loved their pets more than their spouses/partners! It was funny listening to all their stories. That's frustrating that your ap missed that lesson. Hope you're able to dress yourself in the morning.
Wendy, do you work in tv production, or how do you learn about the topics to write about them? I was hoping for a Valentine's, St. Patrick's, Easter, and Memorial Day tree.
Deb, people are crazy! And rude! I'm proud of myself for staying awake two weeks now for Downton, but now I'm really dragging. Was everything sold? She's going to keep working there?!! She's a stronger person than I am.
I'm so tired I can't even remember what I did this morning. I know it was a new wt one from Cathe - upper body circuit I think it was.
Cookie
 
Hi,

I unexpected rest day. I decided to do 2 malls today so I can have Thurs. & Fri. off. I can't believe I paid $1.99 a gallon for gas today:eek: That is crazy wish it would stay that way for a long time!! I was trying to remember how much I paid when I started driving but can't.

Belinda - Great job with your workouts. Turbo Jam & Fire are fun!

Kristin - Too bad you can't repeat that lesson;) My roots & grey are starting to show too but trying to hold out since I'm indoors more than outdoors LOL. I caught the end of the news that Theresa may get out early for good behavior. It's sort of funny, after a few days they could determine that or are the other inmates that bad!

Cookie - It should be interesting to see if she stays but so many locals go there and I bet some are like family. Can you use the Vitamix for baking (mixing dough)?

Waves hi to Amelia & Wendy

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Today I will do cardio? Maybe try one of Cathe's new ones ? Plus, SBF LB 2 = 20 min.

Cookie - I making smoothies since I bought the Vitamix :D It is a lot of money for a blender, lol. I bought the Ninja and returned it after I cut my hand on the blade. Hated it! My gray's hair blends in with my blonde hair:p Gray hair is the lest of my worries:p:D:p

Debbie - I wish the price on gas stay's like this, filling up the RV is expensive. I am sure the price will go up this summer.

Kirstin - I'll be honest:D I am glad I canceled my preorder.I love the music in XT. I find the leg workout similar to XT? The moves/cardio burst are very similar. I really don't see anything different than her other workouts. I reviewed the UB, the only difference I see is the finisher. I can do GS's UB and add a finisher on the end:p Glad it's shocking your body. I have no DOMS today. Went even heavier than Catheo_O

Off to have more coffee, than off getting stuff done around here. Happy Hump Day.
 
Good afternoon,

Done with my workouts. I did TF workout.

I weight in this morning and I am down 4 pounds:D

Happy Hump Day, everyone.
 
Hi Ladies!

Last night was RWH Low Impact #2.

Congrats BELINDA on being down 4 pounds!! YAY!!!!!!!!!

Cookie-I do work in TV production! But I actually interviewed a producer and editor (the heroine works in sports TV as an editor) for this story, too. :)

Debbie-Awesome about having Thursday & Friday off!!

Kristin-The tricep work in that workout is HARD! I had to go between 8lbs and 5lbs and 3lbs!!! Might do that one tonight, in fact. Hmmm...

Waves to Amelia!

:) Wendy
 
Workout done1 I did LIHI Legs. It was a tough one to do with my arms so sore, lol. Doing snow angel jacks and anything that required circling the arms killed my fried chest, haha.

Wendy- I'm glad I'm not the only one who had to lighten up. I was doing 25 # barbell lying extensions, then went down to 20, then used 8# dumbells. LOL. I felt like a weakling. I also did the finishers with 5#, haha. My triceps are still sore, but they are more defined already, after only doing this workout for a few weeks.

Belinda- with my dark brunette hair, all the little suckers are visible, lol.

Deb- my dad said he thinks the prices will be down for awhile. He said that OPEC doesn't want us to frack, because then the price will really go down, so they are trying to keep the price low enough, where fracking wouldn't be worth it because the money it costs to frack would cost more than what the oil would be worth. If that makes sense? It made sense when he told me. US oil production is (I believe) at the highest levels in history. OPEC doesn't want that either.

Cookie- I admit that there are days when the only one I think I love in this house is Baxter. Is that wrong?

Kristin
 
Hi,

Today I did STS M1 D2 back & tri's. I'm running out of ideas for dinner but really don't want to start experimenting on my family:eek:

Belinda - Wow, all your hard work is paying off!!! I could just imagine how much it costs to fill up the RV.

Kristin - That makes sense, it would be great if it stays for a while. I too have to go light on the new workouts much more than you;)

Cookie - The stores seem to still have a lot of merchandise left after the holidays. All the stores are saying there are so many returns because customers are allowed to return from on-line orders too.

Amelia - How are you and your husband doing with the new plan?

Wendy - Great job with your workout!

Goodnight:)
 
'Morning!
Belinda, grey hairs are not a major worry overall in my life either, but it is something I can control right now. Congrats on the four pounds. Have you made changes to your diet?
Amelia, waving hi!
Kristin, TG you said you had to go down in the wts - I thought I was the only one. I'm fried from the new upper body ones, in particular. The legs too but not as much. My dh gets rather jealous of how often I tell the dogs, particularly one, how much I love them. But hey, they are always happy to see me, never complain about what's for dinner, and aren't snarky. Wish more people were like them.
Wendy, researching different perspectives and jobs must keep things interesting for you, plus us as readers. Those finishers on the new workouts get me good every time.
Deb, that makes sense that many of the customers must seem like family to her. Do you follow any food blogs? I get a lot of food ideas from trolling, and I'm lucky that my dh is always a willing participant in my experiments.
Didn't sleep well last night. Did dbf upper body core (lots of push ups!) and the JS shred/tred. I'm quite close to one of my brothers and unfortunately yesterday he was told his cancer has returned for a third time. Prognosis is not good at all.
Cookie
 
Good morning.

XT CBS and SBF UB Core 3 is done!

I will be back later for personals.

Hi to everyone that checks in after me.
 
Good afternoon,

Back with personals:

Cookie - you got that right, lol! I do need to get my hair colored soon. Thank you on the weight loss. I really didn't change my eating. It's matter of fact" I ate chocolate almost every day", lol. I do watch my portion control. I really believe barre is helping me slim down. I forgot to ask you ? Are you following SBF challenge this month? Yeap, Suzanne does a lot of push ups and planks :)

Debbie - give it a try :) My husband has no problem me experimenting :) Thank you! I work really hard to shed those unwanted pounds. How are you liking STS so far?

Kirstin - my sis has dark hair and her gray shows right away. Glad I am blond, lol.

Wendy - thank you!WTG, on RWH Low Impact #2. This is so cool you work in TV production :)

Have a wonderful evening, everyone.
 
Hi,

Today I took a yoga class. Not sure what happened but fell asleep watching TV tonight so tired. I walked a lot today, took ds's dog for a walk. It wasn't as cold today especially in the sun.

Belinda - It is nice to come back to STS, I can see why you have done it so often;)

Cookie - So sorry to hear about your brother:( When we were in FL we went to visit DH's Aunt who had just started chemo for Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer. She was in good spirits & was happy I was able to spend the day talking with her.

Waves hi to everyone

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning,

Plan today is : SBF Killer abs 15 min and active stretch 2 = 20 min.
I also want to do some cardio? Not sure what yet?

Debbie - STS is my most used Cathe dvd's :) Have fun!

Hi to everyone that checks in after me. I will do my workout later today, DH is home today. We are going out for lunch and do some shopping. BBL!
 
Good evening,

I am done with all my workouts. I also did RWH Plyo 1 and RWH abs #1. I am done for tonight. Plyo was a lot of high impact (lots of jumping). My right foot was cramping up. It was fun workout, too bad my foot doesn't like it.The music in that one was not bad. I actually liked it. I thought it was much better than HiiT 2. I do need to give HiiT #2 another chance :p

Good night, ladies.
 
Workout done. I dislike impact hiit one plus abs two. DS had a basketball game tonight. I'm exhausted. I'll be back with personals tomorrow.
