So my workout peetered out this morning. I started to do KCM's 30 Minute Step Blast, and got about 20 minutes done, and then the phone rang, and it was a longer conversasion... so I lost "it". I just ended up stretching afterwards (did the long stretch that Cathe has on Athletic Step). I hope to add in 20 more minutes sometime in my day. But.. I have centers at Jake's classroom at 1p, and I have to get my shopping done, AND cleaning for the weekend. AND, I really wanted to get in my meditation. I didn't yesterday. And I *LIKE* to do it. So we'll see.... It is my recovery week, afterall.
Belinda: TAKE A NAP, girl! You must be draggin!
Debbie: Nice workout today! Did you do that stretch for the hips?
Roxie: Maybe you could mix Jillian up with some Cathe to make it better?
Heather: YAY! for getting it done! And for enjoying it!
Nora: Lalo 2 (and the first one for that matter) is kind of circuit drills. You do some cardio drills (for example high knee runs, or squat jumps, or ski jumps) and then he has you do 15 reps of a specific exercise , which almost ALWAYS works the core, legs and upper body. Light weights, if any (I used 3 lbs, but probably could have used 5 lbs). it seems that more than one of the exercises involves some sort of push up. Or slow kicks to the side, or to the front. It really is intense. He uses what he calls the "Freeze" technique. Where you freeze your body part in the hardest part of the exercise (as in low squat stance). It's pretty cool and amazing how these simple moves can really kick your butt and you poop out towards the end of 15!
