Ooops! Didn't see that there was already a daily thread started. It had already gotten pretty far down for so early in the morning and so I will paste here.
Good Morning Fitness Women,
Yesterday: Lower Body Split (Firm), Gym Style Chest and Stretch Max#3
Lower Body Split is a great workout for those doing freestyle. It is 72 minutes of mostly standing leg work. There is floor leg work in the workout too (about 16 minutes) and it has about 4 short cardio segments that focus on kicks, plyos, lowend squats etc. Tons of lunges, reverse lunges and other leg exercises. Lot of CleanMax and errandMax yesterday too.
Today: Floor leg work (either gymstyle or PLB) and upper body work.
Have to go to work this afternoon to prep for a board meeting.
Have a good day.

Good morning Mariangeles and Cathy!
Mariangeles as always I wonder how you do it. Those w/o's sound tough! You go girl!
Hi Cathy! That firm workout sounds great. I'm doing the Sept. rotation and just tweaking and adding Freestyle to it as it has been working wonders for me!
Good luck at your board meeting!
Today is our rest day but I walked yesterday did Coremax 1&2 and S&H Tri's and Bi's so I'm going to do Imax 2 today for Imax.
Have a wonderful Sunday all to follow.
And remember all that we have today and be grateful.

Good morning Mariangeles, Cathy, Kali, and Becky and all that follow....
I doing the September rotation along with Kali and Becky and a few others. Yesterday was IMAX1 and I went to a wedding complete with a pig pickin reception last evening/night and danced for three hours. I really got my w/o in yesterday!!! Didn't blow it on the diet either!!!
Today is my rest day and I am taking the rest day. I need a total rest day on a sustained 6-day-on/1-day-off exercise schedule and I want to finish the September rotation, so I am taking the rest days with pleasure. I will, however, wash my car. It needs it bad!
Have a wonderful day everybody.

Jane,
Yes, I am enjoying this rotation too! And today wasn't really a rest day for me because I didn't start the rotation on Monday (since it was a holiday, I couldn't fit a workout in)......so today was my day to take the 40 minute run and do coremax. I added an ab workout to yesterdays workout and took the 50 minute DH walk today in place of the run, so now I am caught up!! Tomorrow I'll be back on track!!
Kickmax is on the schedule and I don't have it but I'll substitute Cardio Kicks, I think.
I did just buy KP&C after hearing everyone rave about it for so long and it came yesterday!!! Just in time!! I'm very excited to try it!
Enjoy your rest day!
Good workouts everyone!!}(

Hello ladies,
Yesterday was supposed to of been SH chest and entire coremax. The day got filled up with more and more things, so I had to take a rest day. But I will continue with that workout today.
Hope all of you have a good day!

Hello:
Today is KP&C with added combos from KickMax tacked on at the end and then a really relaxing stretch from KP&C. I might try to do ME and BootCamp abs later on in the afternoon.

Hi everyone,
It's a rest day for me, but I thought I'd skim through the forums and see how everyone's doing.
Tammy - I'm feeling too good I had a lot of painless contractions last night and was beginning to get my hopes up, but alas, they stopped and I'm still here. Thanks for thinking of me!!
Jane - That's amazing that you managed to stick with your diet after all that activity, and being at a wedding! It sounds like you had a hoot of a time!
Becky - FWIW, KPC is a better sub for KickMax than is CardioKicks. Enjoy your workout!
Carole - has football season started already? Where did the summer go?
Suzanne!!! - great to see you back! How was summer in Victoria? You didn't post this year, as you've done in previous years. Did you get in all those beach walks and gym workouts? Back to the work grind, huh?
Have a great Sunday!
Sandra

Hi all
I am deviating from Cathe Sept rotation to rest the heel. I did Push/Pull today instead of a rest day. I plan on attending a live pilates class tomorrow and possibly a yoga class later this week. I will continue with the freestyle work, and 3-4 days of bike intervals.

Hi everyone,
Thank you all for your well wishes yesterday. It must have worked because I do feel better today. The throat is still a little scratchy and I'm still coughing, but it's much better than yesterday and at least I got a good nights sleep last night.
I took yesterday off. Today I did a 4 mile walk and I'm about to do upper and lower body and abs.
Again, thanks for your support. It really helps.

Becky,
Oh, I see why you were delaying doing KPC. If you got the dvd of KPC with Legs & Glutes, then doing KPC (no abs) followed by the 21 minute ankle weight premix of LG (the last one in the list) would work you similarly to KickMax.
One possibility is to do KPC today for the first time, and if you love it, you might want to do it again on Thursday? Or if you don't like it, do Cardio Kicks on Thursday? Just an idea.
Cheers,
Sandra

Thanks again Sandra,
I like your idea of KPC , no abs then ankle weight premix. Here is the rotation as it is written though.....Mon. Kickmax (which I dont' have) Tues. Legs and Glutes and coremax Wed. 30 min. run/200 walking lunges/10 min. of abs Thurs. KPC
Think your suggestion will work (on Monday) with L&G scheduled for Tues. and L&G again on Thurs???
I'm game, if it's not too much of a good (?) thing.
Input anyone?
Also, this is probably a dumb question.....but when it says 200 walking lunges, how do you count? 200 per leg or 200 total? I am HOPING total !!!
Thanks.

Becky,
I found a thread a while back where Cathe had answered the question on how to count walking lunges. Every time you extend you leg out is one, so it is total, not per leg. Thank God! LOL.
The L&G section Sandra suggested you tack onto KPC will give you a similar w/o to KickMax as KickMax has an 18 minute leg condition drill section on the end of it. I'll be doing KickMax tomorrow and those leg conditioning drills and also doing L&G on Tuesday, so the w/o Sandra suggested will give you a similar w/o to what is on the rotation.
Right Sandra?

Good afternoon ladies,
I'm always so inspired by your w/o's. I'm not at your level yet but I'm bound and determined to get there!! I decided to skip my upper and lower body work for today because it would kind of mess up my roatation for the rest of the week, so I walked an extra 2 miles insteas for a total of 6.
Take care and have a good evening. See you tomorrw.

Becky,
So, that's the rotation for the week, huh? That's a doozer on the legs! Personally, I don't think I'd want to do the LG ankle weight segment two days in a row, but I don't think it will necessarily hurt you, either. For the sake of variety, you might want to do KPC with floorwork from another workout, instead. For example, PLB's stability ball work, GS Legs stability ball work, PS Legs floorwork with the body bar (or barbell). I don't know if you have any of those workouts?
Thanks for the feedback, Jane. Glad to know I'm not off the deep end on my suggestions!
