Happy New Year's Eve!

Hi Ladies,

This morning calls for Hard Strikes. It's a shorter cardio workout, about 45 minutes I think. I hate the scale this morning, but it's just water weight from the ham/potatoes DH made for dinner last night.

Unfortunately, work is calling me today. I'm so wishing I would've taken today as a vacation day.

We usually stay home on NYE and watch movies all night! I remember back in the day...we would rent like 12 dvds....now we just either have them on hand or watch them on cable.

Wendy-Hope you are having a winning streak today. If not, we know you are safe in your room working out!

Lori-what are you up to today? Do you and DH have any plans? Hopefully you will start meeting some people soon.

Laura-I recall you saying you had to work today too. Hope the time passes quickly for you.

TG-What are you up to this NYE?

Better get my w/o on if I want to get to work at a reasonable hour.

Hey Guys,

Man oh man, I was hoping to get Cathe’s workouts today, oh well; maybe Wednesday. Any who, I haven’t been up to much, my son and his girl has gone on a 5 day cruise. I had 5 grandkids this past weekend and Tank’s brother 'Snickers' and my son also left me to watch the turtle wth can't wait till they get home

Saturday, I took my GK to see Life of Pi and I really enjoyed it, two of my grandkids fell asleep, it was expected Boss man just informed me we are closing office at noon….freaking YAY I’m going home and relax, well almost. Need to stop at the grocery store, I always bring the new years in with a pot of black eyed peas for good luck. I don’t like them but…..my brother do so I will add smoke turkey. Have a wonderful day.

Happy New Year!

Hey Girls,

Hard Strikes with weighted gloves-Done! This is an OK w/o IMO, probably not a favorite. The time flies by in this one too as Cathe nevers stops. This would be good for a lighter workout day. It ends with some shoulder and bicep endurance weights and has a nice ab section.

Laura-I'm at work now and am wishing I had taken a vacation day. It's pretty quiet and I'm hopeful we may get to leave early. I too am ready to say sayanara to this and bring in a much better year! Hope you continue to feel better girl.

TG-GK's are so much fun! Hope you get your w/o's soon. Laura is probably having black eyed peas too...for good luck!

WOOHOOO

I got my new XTRAIN workouts .. woot woot! wow Cathe outdid herself - LOVE the book - she always ONE UPS herself!!! Cant wait to give the workouts a try!

Di - which one should I start with - keeping in mind I am recovering from this stupid super bug flu!!!

TG - yes I am having black eyed peas and collards tmrw (the only day of the year I eat collards - ick - love black eyed peas tho) - for luck and money!! Are Southerners the only ones that do this tradition??? .. I am gonna put my peas on to soak tonight - we are staying in - DH on days - but we are gonna have our own private celebration gonna put the champagne on ice for a midnight toast!!

Laura-I would suggest starting with CSB. I'm loosely following the 90 Undulating rotation. If you want a lighter cardio you could add in Hard Strikes. Low Impact HIIT is another option if your up to it.
