`````Coolers In Jan '10````

[cab0899]

What a day, a funeral in a blizzard. It was a full fledge blizzard with the wind howling, the snow coming down heavy, -40C. Many, many tears and hugs but I actually felt better after spending time with friends. Even if some of the time was spent digging the cars out of the church parking lot.

What a day, I came home emotionally and physically exhausted and fell asleep on the couch during the 6 pm news. I did see that to the east it's rain not snow. Rain in January?? After my nap, I did Hiit 40/20 with dd adn then stability ball abs. I was actually able to do some of the pike stuff on this ab workout.

Evening Coolers

Boy, Monday has become a busy t.v. night for me. Heros and 24 and now taping the new series Spartacus. I did SS - Tear it Up tonight afterwork. A solid 78min w/o that I feel worked from head to toe.

Kim - I glad that you got some solace today, but your weather couldn't have come at the worst time I sure. Yep, we got rain. Started last night and went all day. Got up to about 6C, luckily buses were still running as it was too warm to freeze up Wow, for still getting in a w/o today.

Laurie - Are you cheating on JM & JW? Hmm, I'm thinking of keeping an eye out for BBC when I'm in Florida next month. $70cdn is just too much for those, especially when I don't want the bullet that comes with it.

Morning Coolers,

This morning was W8D2 of GW28K. Still want to get in Barry's Bootcamp Lower Body, and Mission Specialist Lower done after work.

Kim, Wow that does not sound like a fun day for you or any of the people that where at the funeral. We are having the cold right now, but just a dusting of snow. Guess that nap helped energize you.

Patricia, Cheating! Nope, just giving JM & JW some time off. Cindy and Barry have been sitting around doing nothing for long enough. I'm hoping these workouts will help with the Insanity. Do you have anything with Barry. Sometimes people don't like his yelling, but I don't mind it. Helps motivate me when he is telling the people to work harder.

Have a great day!

Morning Coolers,

This morning was Results 10 Days Upper, and 30 MTF Weights Premix #3. This one is Biceps, Triceps, Shoulders with Ab between each weight circuit. After work yesterday I did get in the Barry's Bootcamp Lower, and the MS Advanced Lower too.

Hope both of you are doing well, we have gotten the bone chilling cold right now.

Have a great day!

Morning Coolers

Forgot to checkin after my w/o last night. I did Imax2 and so enjoyed it! Just love that music. I take DS to hockey tonight. Have not decided what Slim Series w/o I'll do yet though afterwards.

Laurie - nope, don't have any Barry's yet but I've heard Cindy really leads his w/os so that is why I want to try them. You and I are not as cold though as KIM is I'm sure

 

[cab0899]

Your right Patricia, it is very cold here, -30's. Also going to watch ds's hockey tonight and it's a cold arena, dd and I will bring blankets to wrap ourselves in.
Nothing exciting here, keeping up with the rotation, did disc 11 yesterday and did Athletic Step today. Will do the STS abs tomorrow as have to get to the hockey game. Getting tired of the endurance workouts and looking forward to a few days of rest.

That was a quick turnaround in the weather, from raining to cold. Did all the rain turn to ice??

Just relaxing from completing SS - Shape it Up - 78min so a longish workout but not exhausting. Took DS to hockey tonight too. He is not really enjoying it anymore, but he will get a good break from it in Feb. so hopefully when we come back his interest is renewed the for final month or so left in the season.

Kim - we had people flying up from T.O. yesterday and the plane flew around the airport then turned around and went back to T.O. We're presuming the runways were not safe to land. It didn't really seem to ice over that badly so go figure

Must do some research on activities in Florida. Don't want to spend all our time at the big attractions this time. Any suggestions Kim? My GF wants to go to the dog races.

Morning Coolers,

This morning was Results 10 Days Lower, will do W8D3 of GW28K and 30 MTF Weights Workout #1 when I get home from work. Didn't have enough time this morning, because I needed to get going earlier.

Patricia, That is a long workout, don't know when I have done one for that long. Yes Cindy does lead the workout, so that makes up for all of Barry's talking. I just tend to ignore it, because if you go all out on these you will get a great workout. I have to take my glasses off, because the sweat is just running down my face.

Kim, I was bundled up this morning to walk the dog! It is beautiful outside when it is this cold, but dang that wind just goes right through you. Just one more endurance workout to go.

Have a great day!

LOL Laurie at the sweat running down your face. I can't remember what w/o it was this week I did, but I'm laying on my side sweaty as can be and it's running in to my eyes and it HURT

No w/o for me tonight. Both DS and I are fighting a cold. Sitting and reading a book instead!

Morning Coolers,

This morning was BBC Fat Blaster Upper, Mission Specialists Upper and Advanced Abs. Did get my run done last night also.

Got my Insanity package last night, and all I can say is "I think all that money I paid was for the packaging" Looks really good, and can't wait to get started.

Patricia, Hope you & DS kick that cold. Sweaty again this morning, decided that I didn't need to see the TV so took my glasses off right away.

Have a great day!

So happy that mesocycle 1 is done and it's the weekend! Busy day driving the kids around tomorrow but then Sunday should be relaxing.

Laurie That is quite the "book" that comes with Insanity! Are you going to do some previewing over the weekend, I'm curious to see what you think.

Patricia Hopefully you're all feeling better soon! My sister got home last night from Florida, her boys are ages 3 and 6. She said that their 2 favourite things were breakfast with Spiderman and the Captain Hook/Peter Pan boat ride to watch the fireworks. Both have to be booked in advance and neither need admission into a theme park. We usually stick to the theme parks but we always enjoy a more relaxing day at Downtown Disney and/or the waterparks.

Last day of January Coolers!

I've been hibernating since Friday with DS who is sick with cold & fever. He is not sleeping at all well so guess who isn't sleeping either I have managed to get 2 Slim Series w/os in between Friday and today though. I'm hoping his fever breaks by tomorrow and that gives him enough time to store up some energy for traveling next weekend. Fri. we drive down to T.O. and stay the night in a hotel and fly out early Sat. a.m. At least we don't have any formal plans until the following weekend (Daytona weekend) so he'll have a whole week to recoup. I've been lucky to avoid the cold so far.

Laurie - so, how far are you into reading up on Insanity. Any previews yet? When do you start the rotation?

Kim - ah, so are you taking a rest week b/4 starting M2 or will you start it up next week? DS just loves Spiderman. I'll have to look for that breakfast.
