Happy Monday!

Good Morning Ladies

This morning I will do a run and Back/Biceps. My day starts fairly early at the club today, and then I pretty much go straight to 5 o'clock. I have to be careful how I book myself because of feeding times! lol
I start with a new client this week, doing his consult today. He's a priest, and he's absolutely hysterical....I'm looking forward to working with him...lol

Belinda- That's hard, having a rest week on Thanksgiving week......I'm sure you'll get some cardio in! Who's Heidi?

Kristen- Omg barely did I make it through that workout..lol! :p wtg on CCC! That's just as tough! Funny a mini Kit Kat ended up in my hand the other day! It must be going around?? lol

Helene- I'm glad you said something about a lot of paper plate work in lower body......serious yikes factor for me....:confused:

Amelia- Ohhhh no....:( I pray your kids are feeling better today. (((Hugs)))

Have a great day ladies

 
Good morning Iris and good night to me!:p:eek:

Heidi is from my other check in! I always copy and paste! And sometimes I forget to take their names out:rolleyes: Have fun with your run & UB workout! BBL!
 
Happy Monday all! Looking forward to this week going quickly until Thursday, then it can slow down ;). Tonight's workout will be weight work, not sure what though. i am thinking either a legs workout or a gym styles upper body, maybe a full body. . . see what I mean. I guess it will depend on the time factor tonight.

So a question for all of you that I kind of am borrowing from another thread in OD, how many of you have your Christmas shopping almost done? How many of you shop on Black Friday?

Belinda- I hear you on the recovery week on Thanksgiving. I am thinking of upping the cardio sessions or doing more circuits to combat all the yummy treats I plan on indulging in.

Iris- a priest, really? i have a hard time thinking of a priest working out. then again, I have a hard time thinking of a priest who is younger than 90, lol.

BBL

Morning,

Quick check-in.

High reps upper body done. It's nice. The ab section is what killed me the most. and some other ones there two. Lower weights but gets you good. I think a couple of my weights were too high. I wrote down what I needed for next time. It's a nice workout. The inter spaced legs look killer too but i didn't do them because I did LBB yesterday. This is a nice addition to the MM and ME workouts I think. I can't remember power hour. Hopefully Amelia can chime in too if she managed to download it yesterday.

Got to go to work. BBL.
 
Hallo girls,

High Reps is done! Got a nice burn in my abs & tricpes! Loved those lunges with the plates, felt those in my glutes!

Iris - That's funny! The same thing happend to me yesterday, one of those ALmond joy and PP cups ended up in my hands. It must be going around??? :pWeird! LOL!

Kirstin - have fun with your weight workout tonight. I hear you on the eating, lol! I am gonna kill myself this week, no extra pounds! LOL!

Helene - LOL! I just finsihed High Reps, got a nice burn in my triceps. I did kept the weights low, It's my recovery week:p Oh, yes! The ab section killed me too. LOL! I loved the lunges with the plate, felt those!

Ok, now I can relax! It is my recovery week, you know:eek:

I will be back later! Have a great day, girls!
 
Belinda: LOL. we did the same workout....almost. I think you can do LBB too (if you want) during your rest week. I also used lower weights and it was good. A LOT of paper plate work in there, and surprise surprise, I liked it :eek:. My triceps got good on the lying extensions. And yes, this is one killer ab section I think. I think I am going to try intensity tomorrow morning and STS total body on Wednesday. My back seems OK and I am going to yoga tonight so it should do me some good. I'm going to start going again at least once a week. It really is preventative maintenance for me.

Kristin: No Xmas shopping done yet. "might" do some Black Friday but maybe just with the internet. I just don't get into it and I don't like the crowds! I do need to replace my Roku that died though and am scanning for deals on DVD players that are WiFi enabled. Walmart will have one for $68 but Walmart on Black Friday scares me.... I see Imax2 in your future :p

Iris: A priest. And a funny one at that? Too funny. And if you hadn't mentioned it, I would know all about Heidi but now Belinda removed it ;)

Lori: Sorry, you have a full week this week since your thanksgiving was back a couple month. How many PT classes are you teaching per week? It sounds like you have a lot actually.

Amelia: How are the kids today?

Melissa: Welcome back to the hole..... :confused:

Deb: These boots are made for walking :)

Trish: How did swimming go? The pool heater died and the water was 79.8. The kids were freezing and the teachers even more as they have multiple classes. They were jumping in the hot tub in between.

Cookie: What are you up to?

Everyone: Stay away from the candy bars! I mean it too :p

OK, work, work! And unfortunately not the Cathe kind.....
 
Morning, I checked in yesterday evening after i did High Reps. Awesome workout. Cathe is cracking a lot of jokes during the workout too so i was giggling alot;) She exhaust every muscle group with different rep patterns, works them to failure! I mean seriously guys...i had to skip chest and abbs because i checked out after the back lunges with the plates:confused:. Fabulous workout and I can't wait to get the other three new ones.

The kids seem to be feeling better, maybe it was a virus and not Strep throat...they have an appointment tomorrow in case the fevers come back. DH woke up with a fever but Tylenol helped him...im sure i will have one soon:confused: and working with a fever will suck:mad:

The next few weeks are going to be a little crazy with work and things so I may not be around...but will try and pop in when i can.

Not sure what workout im doing today but i need to do something. The next 5 days i will be working 10 + hours a day and not sure if i will get in a workout:( will see, walking on the treadmill is always a possibility after work.

My eating has been all over the place this weekend. Chinese last night (and all i could taste was the sodium:() and a fast food biscuit yesterday morning so no more crap this week...im putting my food down on the fast food(my weakness:eek:)

Hugs to everyone and have a Happy Thanksgiving! gobble, gobble;)

 
Can't believe I am checking in this late at night!:( What as my life become!!:eek:

I had a busy day yesterday. 3 training sessions, put the tree up (decorations aren't on it), had the family in for supper and I ran 10k. Today I had another training session in the a.m before work and I got home just long enough to do 30 mins of cardio.

I am back at work now....shocking:confused: And I have to come back again tomorrow night as well. Atleast its early but its pretty close to bed time for DS and he really doesn't like it when I am not there to put him to bed.

So get this...I have 4 more potential clients!:eek: I don't know where they are falling from but I am going to have to start saying no...b/c I don't have the time. How am I going to study for my course with every spare minute taken up? I also feel like decluttering is in my future...just not sure when!

Belinda** Sounds like you enjoyed the workout. Hope you don't relax to much during thanksgiving week because you know where all that food is gonna go!:p

Ameila** You are a busy gal too..before you know it our thread will be so quiet. I miss coming here every morning with my coffee but that's all I can do about that.

Iris** I loved reading your email the other day. People are so odd. Its nice to be normal;) I never did hear from my chatty baby mama this weekend. She was working lots so I wasn't surprised. Have fun with your priest......

Helene** Nice workout. I am looking forward to getting them!

Kristin** I am getting there on the shopping. I have a few things left to get but I feel like I am clueing up each family bit by bit. My goal is to get my sisters stuff together so I can send it in time.

Alright...hopefully I will bb tomorrow sometime!

Lori:)
 
Evening!
Belinda, I was curious about Heidi. When I was a kid, I really enjoyed that book about her!
Lori, how do you manage to get housework done with so much going on? but then, I always picture you as a neat and very organized person.
Amelia, isn't working and being a parent a tough jugging act. Thanks for the review on the new dvds. Think I might try Insanity tomorrow morning.
Iris, so a funny priest? His sermons might be okay.
Helene, thanks also for your review. How many of them have you done already?
Trish, did you have swimming lessons again this past weekend?
Kristin, I can't believe how Smartboards are taking over. Do you have a lot of them in your buiding/district?
Deb, my dd is thinking of going to college for fashion merchandizing. Is that what you went for? How are you doing?
Melissa, how many days do you have left? You must be getting so excited.
Finished sts on Sunday. Did Lowmax step only but on Bosu yesterday, and then double the blasts this morning. Gosh, I'm so tired.

Hi girls,

I was so excited when I came home from work and my new DVDs were here, but now I must hide them till Friday:)

I can't keep up with my work this year:( more inventory & more stores, ugh!! So my SIL, MIL & niece were Christmas shopping at the mall I was working at and they talked me into going to lunch. I'm glad I stopped and ate something plus I was cracking up when my niece (20 yrs. old) was telling me how my MIL needed bras and the salesgirl said she's wearing the wrong size because her b**bs are too low. Seriously the woman is 71 yrs. old :eek: My SIL said when she wears the new bras she'll be knocking people out because they'll be so high LOL.

Belinda - What happened to your rest week;) I didn't realize the downloads would take so long will have to wait till after Christmas.

Iris - Too funny about the priest. Today I was moving a box in the stockroom and a Guess rosary bead necklace fell on my head . . . thinking it was some kind of sign:eek:

Helene - I'm going to have to refer back to your posts but you sure do know your stuff:)

Kristin - I don't go shopping on black Friday because I can't deal with the crowds or lack of parking. I've been getting some Christmas shopping done when I walk past something in the mall and think it would work for someone:) How about you?

Amelia - It's bodybug I use but a pedometer would work too. Happy the kids are feeling better. Is cyber Monday a big day for you?

Lori - I can't believe you have your Christmas tree up already? Are you presents wrapped and under there too LOL.

Cookie - I wanted to go to FIT but my Dad wouldn't allow it, so I basically learned on my own.

Melissa - How did it go this weekend?

Trish - Another vendor at the mall was telling me that the stores in Bergen County are opening early this year for Black Friday . . . I guess it's only a matter of time before they open on Sundays.

Good night everyone:)
 
Good evening,

Debbie - LOL, abtout your MIL bra! That's funny! Glad you enjoyed your lunch.No, I hope I don't have to wait until Christmas.

Helene - I loved the paper plate excerises! The abs burned!

Lori - wow, your are busy! I hear you on the eating!

Cookie - I loved the movie! Congrats, on finising STS! So, it's your recovery week too? LM on a Bsou sounds like fun. Need to get one of those. Reminds me, I need to check on Amazon, lol! Already got some stuff in my shopping cart, lol!

Hi Melissa and Trish!

Good night, ladies!
