Morning all!
Last night was Imax. I wasn't feeling very well and was really tired, so I did it on a 6" step instead of 8".
Today is MuscleMax.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Hi, everyone!
Last night I did Muscle Endurance, which was okay. I like the upper body, but I need more on the lower body, I guess. Abs were fine, and I tacked 200 crunches onto the end.
Today is my off day. I'd rather work out, but I have to go grocery shopping, etc. Heaven only knows what time I'll get home tonight - I have a lot of stops to make!
Everyone have a grand day!!

Shannon, do you have Power Hour? If not, and you really want lower body work, you should invest.
No workout for me this morning ;( My BIL painted my workout room & kitchen, Sunday. So, last night after my workout L&G. I started putting things back in place, my appartment was a mess.
I guess I finished around 12:30 or later, tired when alarm went off at 5:30 ouch!
Anyway, Tonight, Imax 2 or MIS (entire) I'll figure it out, still deciding cuz rotation kinda thrown off since i didn't get Imax 2 in this morning.

Good morning,
Yesterday I did GS Triceps and IMAX2. This morning I did GS Back & Shoulders, and tonight I will do GS Legs. This is my first time doing GS Legs, and I'm looking forward to seeing what all the hullabaloo is about. People really seem to like this workout. My upper body is getting some nice DOMS from the Gym Styles.
Robyn - Have fun with KickMax. Hello to you, too!
Denise - that 360 move is the one I like the least in SB. Probably 'cause it "takes your breath away" Have a good workout today.
Wendy - good subs for your workouts today. If you have MIS, that makes a great substitute for MM, as well. You asked yesterday how long I've been working out at high intensity. I've worked out regularly for, gosh, about 16 years now (I've just surprised myself; had no idea it's been that long!). Over the course of that time I've had better phases than others. For the most part I did cardio, (a couple of short stints of weight training), until 3 years ago, when I discovered Cathe's weight workouts. It wasn't until I added regular weight training to my workouts that I was able to kick things up a notch. Having a strong core and good postural muscles really helped me perform my cardio better and avoid injury. Another thing that helped me was the short period of time that I swam on a recreational team, with a coach who constantly challenged us to go harder. I learned all about "going anaerobic" during her sadistic drills and interval workouts. I swam for years after that, and I think it really helped my lung capacity. I also ran with someone for a while who liked to do interval training once a week. So, I learned how to push out of my comfort zone there, too. And of course, when I discovered Cathe's cardio workouts 8 years ago, I was challenged yet again. I think interval training combined with weight work has been the most effective thing for my personal physical development. Boy, this has turned into a book! Your workouts are pretty intense these days, Wendy. All that interval training will do wonders for your cardio capacity and stamina.
Conni - hi!
Becky - I salute YOU!! Good work!
Shelley - IMAX1 on a 6" step is still a very intense workout, as most of the drills (the hardest ones, especially) are all done on the floor. Good for you for finding a way to do your workout.
Shannon - all those legs presses didn't toast your legs enough? LOL! Great job. I always find the set of leg presses after the bicep work to be the hardest, because I can barely hold onto the dumbell.
Teddygirl - why not compromise? Since you already did LG last night, why not do MIS upper body, and IMAX2 intervals 6-10 (the premix)?
Have a great day!

That's really strange. I posted earlier and now I don't see it. I must have messed something up. Oh well, I just started Cathe's January 2004 New Year's Resolution rotation on Monday, so today was SJP. I love this workout. Lots of sweatin' going on!
Hope everyone has a great day!

Sandra - Thank you that is exactly what I am going to do. Imax 2 (6-10) vhs, since they are probably the hardest and a UB workout, either GS UB or MIS.
I usually don’t do a cardio & weigh work together, not that I can’t its just that i prefer to split my workout into two parts, okay now I’m pumped

Shelley - No, I don't have Power Hour. Good grief, another one to buy??? I just got my last order last week!
Sandra - I felt it a little on the leg presses, but those never seem to be the most beneficial exercises for me. And yes, my biceps were more tired than my legs at that point!!!

Hi all,
I did PUB warm up and shoulders then did MIS abs and a premix off of KPC minus the abs. Nice workout and I am soo sore from the taebo workouts it isn't even funny. Since I did the taebo bootcamp lower body on Monday I decided against doing legs again today (which is my normal day for legs) I was still really sore yesterday. So I will give it a rest for day or so more.
Have a great day!!

Hi everyone,
I just finished a 40 minute run/walk, and I'm about to do P90X Back and Biceps for the first time. Yesterday was not so good in terms of exercise. I had errands in the morning, and my entire schedule was out of whack as a result. By the time I attempted Plyo X, it was after 10pm. I was 5 minutes into the warm-up (after starting and stopping three times for various silly reasons)when I admitted to myself it just wasn't going to happen. If Back & Biceps isn't too rough on me, I think I'll try to get plyo in this afternoon.
Thanks everyone for setting such a high bar and being so inspirational.
(BTW P90X 4 week stats: 5.4 pounds lost, and I've just noticed additional shoulder definition.)
Pamela
PS IMHO, Muscle Max is great and would be a wonderful addition to anyone's Cathe collection.

Today Im taking it easy. I'm very sore from doing Legs and Glutes yesterday, It had been a while since I did that one. So I did All Step,no weights and the abs. I really like the ab workout in All Step.

Good afternoon! My workout was all over the place. I did TS 3 warmup and cardio which is Step Blast, the first two sections. I then repeated the warm up as a cool down. I went and ran some errands, came home put in TS 5 which is standing and floor leg work. I went ahead and used the warm up, did the standing leg and floor work. Then I went back to TS 3 for the biceps and core, jumped back to TS 5 for Abs. Did the TS 5 stretch and then the TS 3 stretch. Very fun and satisfying! Tomorrow is TS 4 and shoulders. I am thinking about doing Power Circuit with TS 2 withit's back and core strength work on Friday. That way I get a bonus leg workout and will not have scratched any portion of my planned workouts. I am off to eat which I have not done at all today. I'm starving!
