Good morning girls, I'm up "extra" early because of my training I have to go to this morning, so hope your
day will be good.

Question of the day: What is your "all-time" favorite movie or movies?

I couldn't decide on one between two....I loved both of them. My choices are: Dirty Dancing and
Pretty Woman.....Both are older movies, but I loved both of them and have watched them many, many
times.
 
Hi Everyone,

Early start Linda!

Today I did more daily burn (my DD did a workout blender mix last night - upper body). I did lower body + a 10 minute cardio workout.

My all time favourite movie is..... Local Hero (watched it at least 20 times - takes place in the north of scotland and is from the '80s). I also love Elf and Christmas with the Kranks.

I loved everyone's comments yesterday. Love the bedtime comment about snuggling - my dh would love that but now that I have the house and kids - I'm good :)

Have a good day everyone.
 
Good Morning everyone! Early check-in for me too. My day is going to be busy. Favorite movie?? The Color Purple, Shawshank Redemption, Arthur (oldie for sure, w/ Dudley Moore), The Man in the Iron Mask, A Christmas Story. Too many, I know.

Missy, I would love to snuggle w/ my hubby but he always falls asleep while watching TV. Ceci, you always entice me to check out you-tube and other streaming stuff. Good for you. Henriette, I LOVE 4day split Kickboxing. I'm incredibly impressed that you keep going while being pregnant. Linda, I often dread "training" days. It's a lot of sitting. Good Luck! It's so nice to have you back too! Annette, you're killing it w/ your class. They must surely be getting into better shape w/ you as their leader. Elsie, I try to do other trainers to shake things up. This Barre thing always gets to me. I know it works though because my glutes, quads and sometimes core feel it! Did I forget anyone?

Today I did Mike Donavanik Body weight Blast. Of course I had to modify here and there but I'm glad it's done and I can move on!

Have a great day everyone.
 
Hi ladies,

Yes, the ladies in my class that put forth the effort to improve their health are reaping the benefits. One lady has lost about 25 pounds and she has more endurance (her words ).

Today I taught my kickboxing class to 4 ladies for 51 minutes. Felt more like a Friday than a Wednesday.

I then did 51 minutes of weight work including abs and floorwork legs.

Honestly, I don't have a favorite movie. I do like all things science fiction.

Have a great day and workout!![emoji16][emoji2][emoji41]

Hi ladies,

Missy - you were spot on with the best time of day. I can totally relate. Going to bed every night, snuggling up and being held, that is just the best. I love falling asleep like that every night. [emoji7]

Favorite movie? Oh boy, unlike you Annette, I really don't like Sci-fi. I don't really have a favorite movie. Many of the classics like Grease, Dirty Dancing and Pretty Woman I have seen countless times, though not in the last 12 years. I love a good dance movie, like Save the last dance and the Step up movies and PS I Love You and The Time Traveller's Wife (the closest I get to Sci-fi) were also great movies. These days I rarely watch movies. I read a ton of books and watch shows on Netflix several times a week, but don't even watch a movie a month. I really should...

Today was a busy and sad day. Morning at the midwife where everything was fine. Baby and I are in perfect health as far as they can tell.

Late morning I learnt my bf's younger brother had passed. So sad. Cancer got the better of him and all within a year of diagnosis, despite chemo and operations. I was not close with him, I can count the number of times I have met him on my fingers, but he was a good person and leaves behind a wife and two young kids. Very sad for his family and friends, but at least he does not have to suffer any longer.

Today's w/o was 4DS LIS warmup, followed by 4DS back, chest and shoulders. The shoulder part was painful! Really started burning, but now several hours later I feel fine. I am not sure I have had DOMS a single time during pregnancy, but that could also be becuz I am working hard, but not to extremes.

Have a good night all.

Today for my recoveryish w-o I did the warm-up & abs section of Slide & Glide and an Upper Body release flow yoga practice (Flying Sparrow Yoga). Felt good. So noisy here though, it was hard to concentrate. Right now I can't even hear my own thoughts.
Fave movie? I don't have one fave, but memorable to me are When Brendan Met Trudy, Karla and Brokeback Mountain (never seen Alberta look more breathtaking.) Peg, my DH always falls asleep too. lol. I wish I could fall asleep so quickly.


Henriette, I am so sorry for your family's loss. Losing your younger sibling cuts. May your bf find gentle comfort in you/his family/baby. ((take care))
 
Another embarrassing answer! My favorite movie of all time is 'Urban Cowboy.' I know it word for word by heart. I watch it once a year.

My family watches 'Christmas Vacation' every Thanksgiving. We laugh uproariously at all the same parts every time.

I did a very slow 2.5 mile run today on the treadmill. I'm coming down with a cold. It's hitting me really fast. I can feel it in my chest.

Oh my Missy, my very first date was to see Urban Cowboy, the young man (high school age) became an octopus in the movie theater and I barely escaped with my innocence intact[emoji44]. Funny memory.[emoji16]

Too funny Missy, I actually thought about Urban Cowboy, I loved that one too. I like Debra. Another that comes
To mind is An Officer & A Gentleman, she was in that one too. And yes, when I was married, we used to watch
Christmas Vacation each year as well as Miracle on 34th Street. Memories, Memories!!!!
Tonight I did a 20 min. Ab/Core FitTower blender workout. I'm tired, I got up at 4AM !!!!

Henriette, I am so sorry for your bf's loss. My thoughts & prayers go out to all of you. Take good care.
