Hi good mrning. First of all congratulations to Aila and Everybody who is going to receive the dvd so soon. Today is bootcamp in my rotation. I did not execise yesterday. I was checking the hardcore shiping and I went to the cinema. I saw the film million dolar baby. What marvellous film. Clin Eastwood , Morgan Freeman and Hillary Swan are three fantastic actors.The relation ship between Hillary and her trainer is so beautiful. I was crying after the last combat untill the end. I hope the Oscar will reward this film. five starts.Have a great Saturday.

Good Morning,Mariángeles and everyone;

I'll must going to the cinema too. I have heard about this film but don't pay attention-but after reading your post I am interested in this one.

I also would like to say everyone who will receive those DVDs next week-enjoy these HC DVDs and please,be kind enough to let us know your first feelings. I'll must wait for these DVDs more time as I have pre-ordered in cksales :-( But with your first posts the waiting will be not so hard. :)

Ok, I did SH Biceps and the second part 45 min of Have Mercy-The sequel(Spinerval). I'm sore from yesterday's Chest workout and now I don't feel my biceps-so don't know how I'll work the triceps tomorrow.

Mariángeles, I hope you already received your DVDs from cksales(the kicboxing ones).

And for those who stopped smoking-congratulations :) :) -it's one of the best decisions in this life. I have stopped two years ago and I am very proud for it.

Enjoy this beautiful Saturday and this weekend;

Good Morning Mariángeles,

and hello you all that will be checking in later.

I just finished my second 10-miler of this year. Did it without walk breaks AND was 3 minutes faster than last week :) I lost son no.1 somewhere along the way, cause he made a pitstop and then couldn't remember what I had told him aobut the route we were running today. I picked him up again as I ran back after the 8K mark.

It was an absolutely beautiful run along one of my hometown's lakes straight into a bird reservation and back again. Bright blue skies, sun was out, temp was 6C, practically no wind, calm blue waters with flocks of ducks calmly floating along, birds singing..... absolutely gorgeous day!! Exhilirating...:)

Have a great day girls,

Goodmorning,

Mariangeles, glad you enjoyed the film!

I too congratulate the ex-smokers....that is one hell of an accomplishment!

Dutchie, sounds like you had a beautiful run....the sun hasn't come up here yet...but it is suppose to be a beautiful day:)

Today is Fitprime Core and I have a 4 hour yoga workshop.

Enjoy,
 
Mariángeles-I LOVE Clint Eastwood. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Have a great workout!

Dutchie-Excellent run. Great time, too. I just signed up for a 5K in April and will start running more during the week to 'train' for it. I started this morning with a 3 1/3 mile run. I was pleased.

Marketa-baby those biceps. Gotta love the feeling, though, don't ya? LOL

Lisa-a 4 hour Yoga Workshop sounds awesome. I am jealous.

For me, I got up early this morning before my boys and got busy! I did PLB, using my weight bench for some of the standing work because I still can't pick up weights with my wrist. Then I did the abs from Pure Strength. And then, just to see what kind of time I could post for the 5K I just signed up for, I ran on the treadmill. I ran 25 min 3 miles, then walked to cool down 5 minutes, 1 1/3 miles. I am very pleased with that. I haven't run in a long time, so that's a good time for me for NOT training yet.

I haven't gotten my shipping notice yet, but secretly I am hoping to get it by my Birthday Tuesday.

Have an awesome day and great workouts!

Hi MarketaP. I have not received the kickoxing ones :( :( :( .I sent a mail to CK sales and this is what they have answered:

Hi Mariángeles:



Lets give it another week to see if the parcel reaches you. The order was sent out on the afternoon of Jan 14 (Friday) which means that it didn’t move in the postal system until Monday Jan 17. The parcel’s been in the postal system for slightly over 2 weeks at this point. Any delay in Spanish customs could account for it taking longer.

I am thinking seriously about buy my next Cathe's dvd by SNM. I have to pay more money but I know that I am going to receive my order and when I am going to receive it.


Dutchie you seems happy after your run.

Lisa Thank you for saying that you are gald for me. Have a great day.


I have done finally the whole step heaven and bootcamp too. I have been lazy during the past two days and I needed to work hard again.




Everybody have a great Sunday.

Good Morning, Lovely Ladies!
Today was BodyMax. I love circuit workouts! I am off to my son's basketball game! Have a Great Day!
 
Hi ladies,

Today is some sort of circuit workout focusing on legs only. I may create my own, because the boredom factor is really high right now.

Tracy
 
Mariángeles, Lisa... running always makes me happy, but runs like today... those are just the best kind :)

Gayle, sounds like you had a great run too:)

Dutchie
 
Good morning ladies,

Today I might do a KPC/LG premix-I've never done one before.

DH and I are also planning on going for a run today-something else we haven't done for a while. It's going to be almost 60 degrees here today which is a nice change since lately its been in the 20's.

Then, I need to clean. We're having a Super Bowl party tomorrow so I need to start getting ready for that.

Have a great day everyone!
 
Mariángeles, I do want to see that movie also! I know you will receive Hardcore as soon as possible.

Durchie...that is awesome to have decreased the time for the 10 miler. You are really improving. I am glad to know you found no 1 son again..:)...I am so jealous of your beautiful day for the run...I think we are going to be cold and cloudy.

Gayle...congrats on signing up for a 5K! Good idea also to run on the treadmill first if you haven't run in awhile outdoors! Good workout for you.

Carla...circuit workouts are really quite fun I think.

Tracy...I am not sure which Cathe circuit workout has the most leg work. I have created my own before, give it a try...

I am doing PS Legs and some abs today. Hoping to get Hardcore by monday

:+ :7 :) :D ....Carole
 
Good Saturday Morning Ladies!

Last night I did the cardio from Body Fusion and followed it up with Leaner Legs. That was an intense work out! I felt AWESOME afterwards!! :)

Today is CTX Step and Intervals.

Hope everyone is doing well. DH and I will probably be going to his sister's house this afternoon for a visit. We will bring our dog, Clyde and let him play with her pup, Lucky. They are so funny together! I love bringing Clyde to play with his "friends"! We will also be checkin' out her crib and changing table set she has from when here kids were babies. We are thinking of using that one instead of spending the bucks on a new one. A part of me would love to have a brand new set but then again, it seems silly when there is nothing wrong with hers! Plus the fact that I do not intend to continue working once the baby is born, so any money we can save is a good thing! Shhhh-I kinda don't talk about my recent Cathe purchases to him! I figure ignorance is bliss! lol ;-) }( :p

Enjoy!

Have a great work out!

I smoked my last cigarette on March 17, 2004 at 10:00 pm!

I did CTX Kickbox and abs from ALL Step today. Have to get ready and take middle ds to tennis.

Have a great day!!:)
 
Good morning!

This morning I did Cardio & Weights. Very nice workout, and about the best level for me this morning. I'd originally planned to do MIC hi/lo, and MIS, but all signs were pointing towards an easier workout today, so I went with it. My throat is very sore this morning, and I have a slight chest congestion. I also had a terrible sleep last night, due to going out with a couple of friends for dessert (chocolate hot fudge sundae with brownies...). I was too stimulated to be able to fall asleep until at least midnight. I was actually glad when 5am arrived and it was time to get out of bed; I was tired of forcing myself to sleep! I'll pay for this later on today, but that's what naps are for, right?

Mariángeles - I'm really looking forward to seeing that movie! And I also really want to see The Aviator. Have you seen that? I'm sorry to hear your order is taking so long. International shipping can be very frustrating. I doubt it has anything to do with CK Sales directly. Don't give up on them yet! They're a great company! Excellent service, IMO.

Marketa - my husband does a couple of the Spinervals. They're brutal! Personally I find the guy's training style quite annoying. I mean, really, shouldn't he park his own butt on a bike while playing drill sargeant?? :) DH really likes the workouts, though.

Dutchie - congrats on the 10 miler!!! And to your son, as well! Your description of your run was really, really lovely. When you have the right environment, running can be a very pleasant experience.

Lisa - you won't actually be doing yoga for 4 hours, will you? I don't think I ever congratulated you on the new yoga class you're going to be teaching! That's very exciting!

Gayle - PLB and then a run?? Who are you - CAROLE?? ;)

Wendybdh - oooh, which KPC/LG premix did you do? Those are so much fun! Enjoy your run with DH! I didn't know running was part of your repetoire.

Carole - OMG! Really?? You think you'll get HC by Monday?? How exciting!!!!!! I anticipate receiving it on Wednesday, but it really depends on how long it takes CK Sales's order to clear customs. Of course, my parents also arrive for a visit on Weds, so I probably won't be able to hole myself up for 2 days and preview, preview, preview x( I am soooo curious about the music! She hasn't said a peep!

Well, we got a huge dump of fresh snow over the past 24 hours. We may take the little one sledding with friends this afternoon, depending on how cold it is out there.

Have a great day!
Sandra
 
Hi Sandra. I have not seen the aviator. My parents have senn it and they have said that million dolar baby is much better. They only saved Leonardo Di Caprio of the movie.

Ciao tutti!

As always there are some awesome workouts happening here...sometimes I get tired just reading about the combinations some of you pull together!

Today for me was Rhythmic Step with abs from Kickbox. I think tomorrow I'm going to do IMax2, my all-time favorite Cathe workout!

Til tomorrow,

Tammy
 
So, I was happily typing a message when my 2 yo toddled over and turned off the computer! Then he looked up to me very sweetly and said "all finished?" How can you help but laugh:D

Anyway, I am planning on doing PLB tonight. For those of you who wo at night (say around 7 or so)- when do you eat dinner? I've been eating after because I don't want to eat before but then that means I don't eat until 8 or 8:30. Just curious!

I can't wait for the new HC series but I am feeling so great because I've managed to work out consistently for 2 weeks. Doesn't sound like much but for me it is! :)

Have a great night all and big congrats to the people who quit smoking- it was a five day stay in a hospital because I couldn't breathe that finally convinced me to quit 9 years ago! Funny how smoking and asthma don't go together.

Have great workouts!
Jean:)
