Good morning!
Today I did Christi Taylor's "Totally Cool Step", followed by the KickMax leg conditioning drills and stretch. When doing the conditioning drills, I stopped holding onto the chair for balance while doing the single practice kicks. This made me use my core more for balance. I liked the effect.
Jes - I have that problem with my dh as well. We don't have a guest bedroom, unfortunately, so one of us usually ends up on the couch on nights like that. It's aggravating, isn't it? I did PUB y-day too! Great minds....
Wendy - I did SM #1 y-day, too. I was wondering about all those inverse stretches right at the start. Have you been told anything about doing/not doing inverted moves while pregnant?
Laurie Mac - have fun at the ballgame! I'm still thinking about that cheer....
Shelley - what workout came with your High Step? Bootcamp is a hoot, and the Core Premix will do superb things to your core.
Conni - I like Cathe alot during IMAX, as well! I find it especially motivating when she praises Hope for modifying during the power scissors blast. Kind of takes the pressure off of us to have to do the workout "perfectly."
Reba - enjoy Circuit Max! It's a goody! I don't know what other workouts you own, but I generally find Power Hour, or Muscle Endurance to be decent replacements for CTX.
Emily - SB is my favourite Cathe steady-state cardio. It's got it all goin' on! You are definitely working too hard if your heartrate was up to 99% of it's max! Hopefully when you get to workout on the 4 inch club step, you will no longer have the lingering beet red face. I think that means you've pushed things too hard (IMO).
Have a great day, everyone!
Sandra
Looks like it will be in the 50's tonight, so not a repeat of last week. Hooray!
