Daily Check In: May 29, 2006

Daily Check-in

I dropped a pound last week. With the lack of sleep and shorter Timesaver workouts, I am very pleased with that result!

I had a restful holiday weekend. I enjoyed a few small treats but did good with my eating overall. I had a Kari Anderson marathon and did a few of her workouts for the first time. DanceWorks is still my favorite, but I love Push! The step choreography is fun and more intense than her other workouts, but her dancy floor aerobics is what I love the most.

I did the Body Tech step workout tonight (and skipped the weight workout). I love it! The choreography is a lot of fun and reminds me of Cathe’s step choreography. Kari shines in this video, and I love the music. It is less intense than most of Cathe’s workouts, but it is still a good workout for a refreshing change of pace.

I tried Two the Max twice and did not care for it at all. I am surprised because it looked like a lot of fun when I previewed it. The set is darker than usual, the outfits are loud, and the workout itself did not turn out to be as fun as I had hoped it would be. I am visually motivated, and details like the set and lighting and colors affect my enjoyment of a workout. I can deal with leotards and leg warmers if they are solid colors. Wild patterns are another story! Music is very important to me as well.

I love DanceWorks, Push, Classic Cardio, and Sweat Express for floor aerobics and Body Tech and Push for step aerobics. Those are the Kari Anderson workouts that are keepers for me. I still need to try her original Angles, Lines, & Curves. I may give Two the Max another whirl before I give up on it because it has quite a few glowing reviews. I tried Hi-Lo HITS earlier this year and did not care for it either (because I did not like the music).

I tried Christi’s Still Jumpin’ again this weekend. After doing Kari’s workouts for several months, I am able to follow her choreography now. It is just not my cup of tea. I love the music, but the workout itself is not something I enjoy doing.

I changed my mind about my rotation again and decided to stick with the Timesaver workouts for 3 weeks. Hopefully, I will return to the CTX Series after my trip next month. After a holiday weekend with Kari, I am looking forward to seeing Cathe in the morning!

Blessings,
Heather B.
