~~~~~ Coolers in December ~~~~~

So, anyone into expandable waistlines yet:D:D

Xmas has been great, with lots of company. My parents left today, but my sister and her hubby are still here. They're having a jam session right now with a few other guys so the house is really LOUD right now as it's all electric! Expecting more company any minute so will be quick. I did Cathe's Superset w/o Xmas day (virgin for me) took yesterday for a rest day and did MM today.

It rained a bit here Xmas day so the snow was wet enough to build a snowman yesterday. Warmed up one of the ski doos and went out for a quick ride with DS.

Going out to a movie tonight. I think its called Up in the Air - with George Clooney (yum yum):D Our regular babysitter isn't available but her younger brother is - only 13 and never met him really but they're only 2 houses over so we will give him a try.

Hope everyone is having fun.
 
Thanks for posting the pictures Patricia! Your ds is cute as always. Is that going to be an inside toy until the spring?? Good for you for working out Christmas day, Supersets is on my list for today. I haven't done that one in a long time.

Yesterday I did a premix of Kickmax (it was supposed to be a premix from KPC but only have it on VHS) and then mom, ds and I went cross country skiing in the afternoon for a hour.

How was the movie??
 
Hi Kim - yeah, that toy will become an outdoor toy come the spring. In the meantime, it has already gone down the stairs once (riderless thankfully!) I'm worried about my poor walls especially since we have to sell this spring:( It's great fun though!:p The movie was okay - kind of like a documentary. If you've been laid off in the last year it might be a bit depressing.

Today became a rest day. We got up and went to Sudbury for the day. I got my 6# med ball I wanted for my b.day and bought DH his Xmas present - a stationary bike. Just need to assemble it.

Tomorrow will be some sort of cardio & circuit w/o. I think maybe LIC as I've rarely do that as designed. But I reserve the right to change my mind:D

DH goes back to work tomorrow, so just DS and me hanging out.
 
Afternoon Coolers

Just finished Slim Series Tone it Up. There is an All-star Survivor marathon on so I watched while working out using the lap-top:D

Having a lazy day as this is the 1st day with out guests.
 
Well yesterday I got Supersets done and a 2 mile run on the tm which aggravated my plantar fascitis.:rolleyes: This evening I was a couch potato because 1) I don't have STS cardio 2) the rest of the world is on holidays and I have to cover for them and 3) my pf was bugging me.;)

So on the couch I sat and snacked. I just can't seem to get back into an exercise routine since Disney especially with Christmas right after. I need the excitement of the new workouts and a New Year to get me back on track.

Patricia, enjoy the quiet time with company! I'm sure it feels nice. Do you think that you'll use the stationary bike? Was it your DH that was trying the 10 minute trainer or Laurie's??

I ordered the 2lb weighted gloves (I had the 1 lb) and the KPC/L&G dvd
as I only had the VHS version. So now I'm waiting for 3 packages from Cathe including the new workouts and the calendar.
 
Morning Coolers,

Sounds like you both had a great Christmas, we just got back yesterday from my parents house. It was nice to see them, and my youngest decided that she would spend the rest of the week with them. She has a great time with her cousin that is the same age. My brother will be bringing her back down on Sunday.

I received some workout Capri's, Jackie Warners DVD and for the grand gift. DH bought me the tower from Cathe. I was totally shocked, and so very happy! :D Now that chest work will be very doable.

Sunday morning I woke up and got in a run on my treadmill, and also this morning was treadmill. Just didn't have the want to go running outdoors. Not that is was super cold out. :rolleyes: I still want to get in NMTZ today also.

Patricia, That is a cute pic, and I will have to check out your picturetrail. Let's not talk about the expanding waistline. :eek: I think I chose a good rotation when I decided on Jillian for the after Christmas bulge! :D

Kim, I think you just need to start watching some of those Beachbody infomercials. Or better yet, all the adds are now about weight loss! :rolleyes: That should get you into the exercise spirit! Sorry to hear that the running agrivated your pf. :( You will love the DVD combo of KPC/L&G. They have some super combos on that one.

Have a great day!
 
STS is HERE!!! Are you busy trying out your new workouts Patricia??

Glad to hear that you had a nice Christmas Laurie!
 
How the heck do you make this smiley green:eek: Kim???

I can't believe you have it already. Quebec and MB but not Ontarians???? And I was #145!!! I wasn't expecting it until Jan but now that I hear people getting it I'm stalking the mailman:p

Laurie - don't you just love it when our DH's actually pay attention to our interests? I'd stored mine away for Xmas but must get it back out to start practicing pushups and maybe some chinups too:D Who says we have to wait until another STS rotation to use it! Glad to hear you had a great Xmas.

After a fairly lazy day yesterday, I got busy 1st thing. Did Step Works then ran out to buy a belt to fix my vacuum. I took down all my Xmas decorations and got everything neat and tidy in the storage room, then started working on doing some purging. Now if only I could get DH to do some too. I just know when we get told to move it won't be at a good time for us and I want to be as prepared for it now as possible.

Any plans for the New Years Eve? At the moment we just staying home and chilling:D
 
So I watched MMA Fusion and then fell asleep on the couch last night:eek: Busy work week with a little cold. Going to be super busy at work today, hard getting up and going with the rest of the house still sleeping. DH is off today and the kids don't go back to school till Monday.

Patricia I'm sure this is your day!! I've got my fingers crossed for you. We're thinking a pizza and movie this evening but I would be happy to stay home. We'll see later.

Laurie I was so excited about my STS I didn't even register the pull uptower !!! What a great gift, I'm sure you will put it to good use! Let us know what you think of it.

STS IS IN THE HOUSE​
 
Perfect Timing. What a New Years Eve present:D:D This fits in with my rotation that I've been doing the last week or two. Alternating cardio and FB w/os. Hmm, wonder what Cathe's rotation will be for January. Hopefully using these DVDs along with working of the holiday pounds!

Did Power Hour today and DH just suggested Chinese for dinner tonight. It's snowing here and perfect for going out for a ski do ride but can't get DS to come out. Must go out tomorrow.

Have a Happy New Year Coolers.
 
The kids loved the dancing guy! LOL I'm very surprised that Cathe hasn't posted a January rotation or a new STS rotation yet. Would you believe that the kids have been fighting over who gets to do the first STS workout with me:rolleyes: DS wants to do the HITT or a MMA? DH even seems excited, while I was at work yesterday he checked to see if the rotation has been posted yet:confused: I met them at Boston Pizza after work and he informed me that he had been checking, very strange, I'm surprised he even knew where to check.

I guess today we'll be trying one or two of the new workouts and I'm going to print out the workout cards for week one.

Enjoy the skidoo Patricia! How's your weather. It's very cold here again. Minus forties with the windchill. I think I'm going to stay home for the day, ds wants to invite friends over for a New Year's party maybe I'll give in.

I'm going to start a new thread for the month.
