Good Morning Fit Chicks!

Well I did end up resting y'day which is probably a good thing!

Today it's a run with my friend in the park at 8:30. I am hoping for 5 miles but will be okay with atleast 3...We'll see how it plays out. It really depends on the heat.

Tomorrow I start my new weight training week with the Pyramids. I haven't done them in ages so this should be interesting!}(

Have a great day everyone!
 
Good morning Wendy and all who follow,

I hope you have a good run today, Wendy, it is another beautiful day here.
I was hoping for a more intense rotation from Cathe this month, so I may have to rehash an oldie to help keep me on track. We shall see.

Today was PP Upper Body 3 sets, then Coremax 2. Off to church now, have a great day.
 
Good Morning Fitties!

Wendy I'm glad you took a rest day. I meant to vote for that, and then didn't remember to do it !

It's a rest day for me. We're going to PF Chang for dinner. I've never eaten there before but have heard good things about it, so I'm looking forward to it.:9

Tomorrow I'll start the July rotation. Sorry it wasn't what you were looking for Connie.:-( It's exactly what I was hoping for......we have vacation this month and it's a busy time, so I'll follow it and then on vacation , it's a rest week with NO guilt !
I figure I'll get plenty of exercise walking everywhere and playing in the ocean and pool !!!!:7

Hope everyone has a great day!:D
 
Hi Wendy and Conni, and all who follow,

Happy July. It is beautiful here for the first day of July(mid 70's):) .

Wendy enjoy your run.
Conni I like the rotation but I was hoping for more cardio.

I finally broke down and bought a barbell. The 100lb set at Walmart. I also preordered the new series yesterday too.

Today will be one of the hardcore xtremes with imax 3 and clean max today.

Might go watch fireworks tonight.

Wendy ~ I like how you are always changing things up. Perfect weather here for running.

A NEW CAR!!!!!! TAMMY!!!:7 :7 :7 :7 What'd you get ????
 
Becky ~ I traded in my 2002 VW Passat for a 2007 VW Passat Wolfsberg edition. This will be my 3rd VW....I *heart* VW's :7
 
Good morning!

Tammy!! A new car, how exciting! I still *heart* my GMC Envoy. I don't think I could ever go back to a car. You'll have to show us pics of it when you get it.

Off for another round of appliance shopping today. I'm beginning to wonder why I started this.

Here's an updated picture of my little man.

Jane- He is so cute!!:) Thanks for sharing.

Tammy - new cars are always fun. Gotta love the new car smell. Enjoy!!
;-)

I surpassed what I had wanted to do today...I got in 6 miles in 1 hr and 11 mins. It was slow but steady and it's the first time I've run 6 miles! I've come close on the TM but they have 60 min time limits and I just can't run that fast for that long to actually make it to the 6 mile mark! Now I'm ready to try for 7!!!}( }( }(
 
Hey everyone!

Rest day for me. The party was great! I had a little too much wine and slept until almost 10! I'll soon put the pics on picturetrail for all to see. I didn't get any pics of me and DH! Actually, I only got 1 of DS.

I agree with Jenn, that Cathe's rotation seems a little too easy. Maybe I'll mix it up with something else, using the timesaver stuff on busy days.

Later gators!

Wendy glad you had a great run.

Phyllis glad you had a great party. Enjoy your rest day!!

Thats a great idea to mish mosh rotations together to come up with perfect rotation.

I did HCE#3 and stretch max #2. I have about a week of rock bottom left and then I'm thinking of maybe fitness freaks 1hr fat loss rotation.

I lost 1.5 inches this month but the scale didn't budge.x(

Good Sunday Ladies!

I must apologize for not being on as of late but we've been having trouble staying online; my wireless connection is down for my laptop and although it was locked we have a sinking feeling somebody may have found a way to tap into it as we can no longer lock it and our radio name is no where to be found. My husband plans on calling linksys for some support. In the mean time we're only using the lan line which keeps kicking us off.

We honestly do not know why this is happening. Plus dealing with the kids arguing all the time needless to say I am stressed.

My rotation for this month of July will be a combination of Cathe's June & July rotations of this year with some CC & iTreads sprinkled in the mix. It should get my heart pumping good }( and my muscles primed and pumped as well :eek: - I'm really looking forward to it }(

I have printed it up and will start tomorrow morning as I plan on getting up as early as possible the rest of this summer to not have to deal with the heat, humidity and get my control back as far as my workouts are concerned. It's amazing how the dynamics of family life can truly interfere with my fitness goals.

* Jane - oh my what a handsome lil guy your grandbaby Joseph is turning out to be :7

Waving Hellos to Wendy, Conni, Becky, Jenn, Tammy, Phyllis and all who follow.
 
Hello all! This is my first entry...I want to join the daily check in to keep in touch with others who love Cathe and love fitness!
A little info for all you fabulous ladies about me - I'm just recently married, have been working out with Cathe videos for 2 1/2 years now, also work out at LA Fitness gyms, am considering entering a fitness competition sometime within the next year, love to laugh and be happy with those I love, and work as a high school Spanish teacher.

I've just recently decided to be more dedicated to my fitness and diet regimine to hopefully get as cut/lean as possible and get in the best shape of my life. That's why I'm signing on here.

My workout today was a circuit workout at the gym with 3 circuits consisting of 15 min of various cardio (elliptical, treadmill, bike) and bis, tris, and shoulders excercises. About a 90 minute workout finished off with some abs.

Looking forward to checking in with all of you from now on. Hope everyone has been having a blessed day! (And I promise my other entries wont be so long).
 
Tinabell ~ Welcome!!!! It sounds as if you will have lots of fitness ideas to share w/us.

Jane ~ OH....MY....GOD....Joey is too cute for words:* :* :* :* :*

Vilma ~ Have you tried unplugging your linksys and resetting it? I hope you get it figured out soon...kids and arguments go hand and hand :(

Phyllis ~ Glad to hear the party was a success and that you had a great time :+ :+ :+ I can't wait to see your pictures. I like you idea of using bits and pieces of this month's rotation.

Wendy ~ Way to go!!! :D

Jenn ~ Ignore the scale and focus on your inches lost....that is the true measure of your success (pun intended)! Congratulations!
 
Welcome Tinabell!! We love for new people to join our little group. This is a wonderful bunch of fit ladies.

Joseph is growing fast isn't he? He is so sweet and oh he doesn't like to be put down:p. That's alright, nana will hold him all the time!:)


Oh thank GOD I'm finished appliance shopping today. I had to call Becky when I left HHgregg and talked her ears off about them! :7

I wound up with a Kitchaid stainless steel french door model with filtered water dispenser inside the fridge, nothing in door. DH was terrified about malfunctions on the water and ice dispenser, so I wound up going with a french door which I grew to love the more I saw it. I just hope I can keep the fingerprints off, I was assured by the salesman if I keep it polished about every six months with a special SS polish, it will cut down on this.

Whirlpool Gold (WPG) range with WPG over-the-range microwave, and a QuietPartner III WPG dishwasher. I felt like I got an excellent buy on it all. I was there from 11:30 this morning until 4:30/4:45 this afternoon except for about an hour and a half when I went to get a bite to eat and do some other errands.

I'm pretty happy this is over with. Now the real fun begins when we tear our kitchen out and give it over to the contractor.

My workout today was running around HHGregg for HOURS!
