Hi Ladies,

Siobhan - I am in Northeast Ohio, and it is going to get into the high 80's this weekend, yippee!!
Bad news - the pool heater is broken and they are delaying the opening...:(

Anyways, good mishmosh today - I did TF Hiit 20, Jari's GER workout 1 and abs.
Off to library for volunteer meetings for DS, and then down to the cemetery to plant some flowers before heading home for yardwork today.
I had better be done by happy hour!:p
 
Good Morning!

Today is kettlebells and pull-ups (still only managing negative pull-ups). I have the usual Saturday chores to do :confused: I hope to get a nice hike in at some point this weekend with the hubby.

Conni ~ Nice mishmosh today! Enjoy your yard work, I hope to get some flowers in this weekend too.
 
Good early afternoon ladies,

I worked out this morning before spending 1/2 the day at group therapy (part of my practicum which is over - but clearly isn't over ha ha). Today I did P90X Plyometrics. I know I keep saying wow! but this was a double wow. Just as good as Cathe's Hiit only double the time so I was drenched in sweat. Loved it! I might do a quick leg workout before dinner. we'll see.

And conni, I've been to Ohio. And Carmen, Florida? I have never been but my mother-in-law goes every year (Sarasota). She loves it.

enjoy your day ladies.
 
Hi ladies. No workout for me today. Enjoying my rest day.

Siobhan Sarasota is 1.5 hrs north of where I live. Its very nice there.

Have a good one.

Carmen
 
Bonjour mes amies,

My 9 year old asked if she could work out with me yesterday so I popped in P90X stretch - she did the whole thing! Wow she is flexible. And, she stuck it out for the whole thing!

Today I did P90X Shoulders and Arms - I shouldn't have (just did something similar two days ago) but I couldn't resist. This was tri-sets and was fantastic!

Carmen I do not know Florida geography well but i'm guessing you are in a nice spot.

enjoy your sunday ladies.

Good Morning!

Today will be CCPP :) Should work up a good sweat with that one!

Siobhan ~ P90x Shoulders/Arms is one of my all time favorite workouts.

Have a good day all, I'll check back later...need more coffee STAT!!
 
Hi ladies,

Pool is open, but not heated. Sorry, I don't want to spend time in 60 degree water right now..Hopefully next weekend will pan out better in that regard.
Today was Rob's Amazing Strength workout, and I am doing my cleaning now. DS and I will do lawnwork in a bit, then he is golfing later.
I am firing up the bbq tonight!
 
Hi ladies! Its a beautiful Sunday here. Today I did the original Cardio and Weights - entire one hr workout. I've not worked out that long in a while.

Connie -I'll be grilling later too. Our pool has been avg 85 degrees here. :cool:

Off to shop for some shoes to use for Zumba and high impact workouts. Any suggestions?

Great workouts ladies!!

Carmen.
 
shoes

Ended up getting Asics Gel 260TR from Sports Authority. They were on sale. Also ordered New Balance WX871 from Zappos. Com. Both well rated for zumba and bootcamp style workouts. I'll give a review after one week or so of wear.

Carmen
 
Please do Carmen as I am in need of new shoes too for home.

My daughter Sofia is asking to do another workout - no weights please she said. I'll try the Yoga 7 with her.
 
Hotdogs and hamburgers....yum

Happy Memorial Day!!! Today its a 10 am Zumba class for me. Hoping my new Asics do my feet good!!:p

Hope to clean out one closet to day.....or just lay by the pool...:p

What are your plans for today?

Carmen.
 
Hi ladies,

Carmen - I am thinking of you today. Besides being jealous of you pool situation, I did my new Kari Anderson Sweat Express 2 this morning!!! It is so much fun - very zumba like in parts but better choreographed imo. I really got sweaty too, and there wasn't a single burpee, mountain climber or tuck jump to be found!! How refreshing!

Taking Sherman to the dog park this morning, did some chores but that is about it for the excitement for today.

Have a good one!

P.S. Am seriously considering cancelling my Cathe preorder. I have been rethinking my lack of fondness for her choreography, am not really fond of yoga or barre....so why did I do this???
 
Good Morning!

Kettlebells today, Lauren Brooks V1 quick fat blast followed by Lauren Brooks V2 20 min smoker. Ended it all with push-ups :) Not much going on here today, maybe a hike later.

Carmen ~ Your zumba day sounds fun. I wear Asics running shoes...love them!

Conni ~ Your workout sounds fabulously fun :D You should probably cancel your pre-order if you are already regretting it...

Hope everyone enjoys their day off ;)
 
Connie - I know what you mean about the preorder. I preordered the last DVD's and I was not happy with any of them. Same old same old and too long.

I think there should be video clips to preview before you preorder. I havent seen any for the new series.

Zumba was great, new shoes worth the money.

Have a great days ladies.

Carmen.
 
i am sorry for starting a new thread... i couldn't find tammy this morning and then at the end of the day again - no tammy - so i started one! conni helped me find you all ha ha. thanks conni. we don't have a holiday here. today was a busy work day.

Hi again,

You guys have to check the bon appetit with Gwyenth Paltrow!!( Okay, I can't spell her name..). I did a marvelous grilled chicken breast with peach bbq sauce that was wonderful!!!

Carmen - Still leaning toward cancelling, after doing the Kari workout I want to spend the money on other workouts I think...
