Getting us started...

This morning is S90 Shoulders/Arms. So far I am liking the series...it is a great value for $20.

Carmen ~ Thanks for the pics, you all look radiant. You did the right thing trying to make amends to the charity.

Conni ~ I also liked Tabata Inferno...great workout and a keeper for sure.

Zippity ~ How are you liking STS? Are you doing a full rotation?

Beavs ~ Where you at?

Annette ~ Hope all is well.

Have a good day!!

Good morning ladies! Hope you're all having a great day. Today's bodyrock workout is called Set-fire workout. 16 min exercise that includes jump lunges, mountain climbers, side to side push ups and scissor crunches. I have a meeting right after work so hope to do the work out as soon as I get home.

The fall out from the media "diss" is horrible. Yesterday the charity's founder sent me an email stating new changes as a result of this fiasco. He also admitted that he allowed lots of latitude with our situation because of who I worked for. He copied in all the local media and the five local elected officials. Needless to say I am mortified! My spanish temper and ghetto upbringing was in full view yesterday! There is nothing more I can do to fix it. He is refusing donations of any kind from us. When step son returns my husband and I will talk to him. I also think I will send the founder's email to my son's NCO so he is aware of how this marine disrespected a nonprofit dedicated to helping military and their families. H

Sorry to dump this on all of you. This has been an unbelieveable mental trip.

Lets make it a good day.

Hi Tammy and Carmen,

Tammy - I think you will like the Arms and Shoulders, Ultimate Ball, Legs and the core workout also. I have yet to do the rest, but I am starting those in a few days.

Carmen - OMG!!! I really have an issue with this organization. I think you did your due diligence in not only admitting there were issues, but you also tried to appease them the only way you could. I think they could be more gracious in dealing with this instead of blowing it up out of proportion. Your Stepson should be the one dealing with this, and you should direct everything to him at this point. I really think they are making much more out of this than needed. Seriously, is this going to affect life as we know it? Come on, let's get some perspective.
You did what you could, let your stepson deal with any more fallout from his behavior.

Today was Cardio - I did Christi Hi/Lo Heaven and then CLX AE.

Hang in there, everyone!

Hi all, I subbed Monday and Tuesday at the VoTech for Biology and Chemistry but I am home now and got a short but sweet workout in. I hate missing workouts but I have to ease back into them when I resume.

I did a 20 min. Kickbox workout off of Exercise TV today for my workout. Felt good.

Have a great day!!

Oh heavens, Carmen...that charity organization should actually have had policy in place stating that the beneficiaries must allow media coverage of the event. Very bad form on their part...

Supreme 90 is great...can't wait to do a rotation...

I'm loving STS so much...They are the most difficult and longest weight workouts I've ever done...there's really no comparison to any other fitness workout dvd, IMO...I purchased Meso 1, 2, and 3, did part of Meso 1, then skipped to Meso 2 because of impatience on my part and my personal preference for heavier weights and less reps. I'll finish Meso 2 and 3, do a 30 day Supreme 90 rotation, then will go back and do all three Mesos.

Today is STS Meso 2, disc 21, back and biceps. I'm a bit tired, and the only part of my body that isn't sore is my back, but pull-ups are a walk in the park, right???

Zippity ~ I liked STS when I did it...I want to do another rotation in the fall.

Annette ~ Ooh! Bio and Chem were two of my favorite subjects

Conni ~ I did like Shoulders & Arms...LOVED ultimate ball, my core was sore for two days

Carmen ~ Sorry to hear about what happened...ITA that your stepson should be the one dealing with all the backlash.

Have a good night all!
