Good morning,

I am still downloading! I never got my ab workout done yesterday, will do it today. Maybe I will do one of the new ab workouts? Not sure, what else I will do today?

I finished my 8 week rotation yesterday. Next week I will start my recovery week.

I will be back once I am done downloading all the new workouts!

Happy Sunday, everyone! BBL!

Morning!

Belinda: Why am I not surprised that Intensity is the first one you downloaded ? Enjoy your rest week. Can you tell us what your results were from your 8 week rotation? I think I will start it in January. I am planning on doing it for one month and then seeing where that takes me.

Deb: I never clocked my steps at Disney but they say you should count on the equivalent of 8 miles when visiting one of their parks. Never worried about my eating then.

Melissa: Wondering if the doggie came home with you. I hope Cruela isn't so mean that she would say no just to bug you. I hope that everything went best as possible.

Kristin: I am jealous. 7am wake up would be fine with me. Usually DD is up at 6:30 no later. Today (of course always best on a Sunday morning) is 5:17 am And yet we still love them to pieces LOL

Not sure what I will do today. I want to be super careful with my back. Intensity is probably out for now (still careful about my back) unless I do a couple segments of it like the step and Low Hiit. Otherwise, lower body blast looks good and so does High rep. What's a girl to do? this is worst than deciding what to wear in the morning!

Have a great one everyone! I'll try and BBL to report.

Good Morning

Belinda-Awesome job with Intensity yesterday! Does it live up to its name? Have a great abb workout today girl...

Helene-So what workout did you decide on?

Kristin-Nice job with BC yesterday! That workout is tough...i usually have to modify towards the end

Debbie-Are you wearing a pedometer? Thats a good idea! Im walking all day so it would give me some relief to know how many steps i take in a day...i will see if my job allows them. Nice job on MM yesterday!

Iris-Hope you enjoyed your rest day! How is your mom doing?

Hello to everyone I missed!

The first attempt to download High reps failed. But im downloading it again right now so hopefully everything will be ok. I'm really anxious to try it today

Good Morning!

Busy day yesterday...didnt get a chance to check in. I did 3 sessions, then my own workout which was a 20 mins run, then BM2 circuits and abs. The day before that I did Amy Bento's slo mo challenge and a walk/run with one of the girls I am training. I was sooo sore from Friday's workout! I don't feel to bad today.

Today I have most of my Christmas decorations lugged in the house. I figured it was just as well cause it was my weekend off. And I have 3 more training sessions.

Im gonna come back later and catch up on personals!

I am so frustrated with the last 3 downloads! They will not download?

Helene - how loud can you play the downloads? I need a hearing aid with mine! Where are the premixes? Rrrrr.....

Good Morning Ladies

Today I will do functional training from CSF, and dang this is the hardest workout of the week...lol. I set my alarm for 6:30, and I'll be darned it didn't go off...I didnt wake up til 8:30!! I feel like half the day is gone!!!

The weekend is getting away from me , here. I worked almost a full day yesterday, and then went and visited my mother, went to the market, by the time I got home I was wiped. Today is housework coming out the yin yang. Thank god for the holiday's this week, I need to catch up with myself.

Belinda- Hope you get them downloaded!! Enjoy your rest week

Helene- Did you do High Reps yet??

Lori- Ahhh...training on Sunday's, eh? A place I won't venture to.... I meant to pm you back, I will later today.

Amelia- (((Hugs))) to you.....and your kiddo's are sick on top of everything. I hope they feel better soon!

Deb- I have a feeling if we went down today, she would have recruited us definitely! You're having Thanksgiving at your house this year?? So you're doing all the cooking? Dang girl, you need some relax time!

Kristen- I guess the grass isnt' always greener, right? lol. I was kind of lucky in a way that the music program (started out) smaller, and structuring a rehearsal was my passion. So I never lacked that, I ran my "rehearsals" , ( I never called them classes) like a professional ensemble. Every minute of rehearsal was carefully planned, I never let them just pull out one sheet of music after another, even the middle school kids. Dang I loved my job......hated everything that went with it. And as I always say, Helene is the go-to for all things download....

Ok ladies.....I'm definitely behind in life today!! Peace....

I'm baaaaaack!

Belinda: Are you playing the downloads from your computer? The sound from the computer is low for sure. I use mine through the TV and that way the volume is fine. There are no premixes with the downloads by the way. I think eventually, they would like people to use the WB to create the premixes. They are not there yet, but eventually, they will provide the template to make the premixes and you will be able to make them from the one file that you downloaded. If they provided the premixes, they would have to be downloaded in their entirety each and that would cost them a lot of bandwidth. I hope this helps? For the sound, def through the TV with the volume all the way up on the computer going out to the TV works fine.

Iris: My day has gotten away from me as well. DH took Thursday as vacation and half of Friday. He went to work all day yesterday and he has been there since 6am this morning. I told him he better get his vacation days back. At least my in-laws are here so I am not alone with the kids. I don't mind that, but I do like to have an hour of freedom to go workout Else I would have to recruit a friend for an hour..... like say ..... you maybe LOL.

Amelia: Did your MIL have her surgery? I hope all is well. I don't know why you and Belinda are having a hard time with the downloads. I got all mine done in 1hr yesterday morning. Maybe their servers are being swamped with too many Cathletes request? I wouldn't think so but..... Now Belinda is coming from overseas so hers would take longer and time out more easily.

Lori: That's awesome that you can manage to get your workouts in with your trainees to some extent. I always thought from reading your workouts that you were good at mixing things up. A sure sign of a good trainer

Hi to Cookie, Trish, Kristen and Melissa.

I just did lower body blast. I saw that it uses lower weights and thought it would be fine with my back that way. And it was. I just made sure not to load up the BB too much. Turns out, that is a good idea because I wanted to cry uncle a couple of times. It's a nice workout for sure and has a different feel to it. I liked the timing for the reps a lot.

OK that's it for me. I hope everyone has a great Sunday!

 

[bayerngirl]

Helene - I turned the sound up on my computer? I played a DVD through the TV, no problem. I play the downloads, I can't hardly hear it? Weird? DH even bought more cables, to see if that would make a difference! No luck! Only the downloads are low? Can't figure that one out? I also can't forward/rewind while it's playing? Aww....it's driving me nuts! Thanks for your help!

Happy Sunday all! I am looking forward to this three-day work week. i am trying my best to eat clean. I almost made it yesterday, but then somehow a mini butterfinger ended up in my hands, strange, I know. Anyway, so far today it has been clean eating all the way. I just finished CCC and guess what. . . for the first time I didn't feel like I was going to vomit as I did it. I guess that is progress.

Belinda- with new technology comes new headaches, I am sure it it some stupid thing that you'll figure out. Annoying, I know.

Iris- make it through that workout yet?

Lori- glad to see your PT is booming! That is great!!

Amelia- I modify those terminators. I do them from teh step instead of from the floor. For some reason I get dizzy coming up from the floor. Did you get to do high reps?

Helene- how is LBB? That is the one I want the most.

Hi to Melissa, Trish and Cookie. Hope you all are enjoying the weekend.

Kristin

Belinda: I think this is what I have to send the sound from my computer to the TV. I don't know if this helps out. Only other thing is I don't play them through itunes I use quicktime. The sound on the computer is all the way up and the one on TV about half way up. That is all I can tell you I think. Everything else is standard. The only other thing I have is this so that I don't have to reach in the back of the TV every time to go between cable from the computer and cables from the DVD player.

Kristin: I really enjoyed LBB. It is low weights and more endurance but with a couple blasts here and there. The blast are nice and easy which is good because I don't know if I could have done hard ones. A LOT of awesome paper plate work. I mean a LOT (reminds me I need new paper plates....) It's a good workout and I'll be happy to pull it out again and again. I haven't had a butterfinger for a long time. yum. Maybe that was why you didn't feel like vomiting during CCC. OH, and I am SOOOOOOOO looking forward to the Friday workweek you have no idea! Especially now that DH worked all weekend.

I am still pooped from my workout this morning. Oh yeah, and I also got up at 5am with the little ones. LOL. Forgot about that one.......

Have to run a few errands. Can't believe the weekends go by so quickly.

Thanks Helene! I will check it out! I also contacted Cathe Digital Downloads Support Team, they are working on it! Hope it's just something simple! Nice workout this morning, btw!

Hey girls...let me take a breath here High Reps certianly lives up to its name. My muscles are exhausted and I am too!! I thought the workout was over after triceps then she starts doing lunges with the plates...i did the back ones then checked out! I missed chest and abbs This is one of those workouts i will have to 'work up' too

Update on my MIL: No surgery yet. There will be a MRI done on her heart tomorrow then will go from their, i will keep you guys updated. I spoke to her yesterday and she's in great spirits. We can't visit her because the kids are sick

My kids were up most of the night with a fever! I was running around with a thermometer, Tylenol, cold rags(for their head) and giving out kisses and hugs. DS ran a high fever, 102.8 and I was totally freaking called the ER and was told to keep a close eye on his vitals Sigh, it was one of those night i wish my DH was home After they both finally settled down to bed (around 2am) i had myself a drink.

So.....anyways, im eating some Chinese food later. I think i deserve some after the week I have had..i will catch up with you all later...
