Good Morning Fitness Ladies,

Yesterday: CTX upper body and PLB(floor work and stretch plus calves)

Today: steady state cardio (short only about 40 min plus some freestyle leg work on schedule)

Have a good day everyone.
 
Good morning Cathy!

Have fun with cardio and freestyle!

I don't have KickMax which is on the rotation so I'm subbing LowMax and a walk/ run instead and then some freestyle upper body.

Have an awesome Monday everyone!

Good Morning Cathy and Kali,

I missed my w/o last night so I am going to do what I missed today....full body weights, cardio and abs. When I missed last week I gave up a full body weight day so this week I will give up something else instead. I am tired of missing though...this is 2 weeks in a row...I hope it's not the beginning of a new trend for me. :-(

Have a good monday everyone!:)
 
Good morning everybody!

Yesterday was my rest day and other than washing my car, I rested.

Today is KickMax.

Happy Monday (is there such a thing?) :)
 
"Happy Monday (is there such a thing?)"

**************************************

LOL Jane. That's a good question! I know I never used to think so! Now that I am home Mondays are not so bad but I still look forward to fridays as much as ever! :)
 
Good Morning Fit Ladies!

StepBlast and some ab work for me today.

Kali: LowMax is just a great workout, I did it yesterday...enjoy!

Wendy: Have you tried moving your rest day to your 'busy' day? I know, all days are busy - you have a baby!

Jane: KickMax is so tough. Congrats on the weight loss/inches loss - great job!

Sandra: Hey girl....just checking on you!

Hello to all that follow...have a great day!

Good monming Cathy, Kali, Wendy, Jane, and everyone who comes after me,

Boy, you gals are up and at it early today!!:) Wendy, I missed a w/o one day last week because I was sick. I opted not to make it up because it would've messed up my rotation for this week. I really need to stay on track this week.

Yesterday, instead of upper and lower body and abs I walked 6 miles--4 in the morning and another 2 in the afternoon.

Today is basic step and upper body with ab add on. I'm going to try the step today. If my hip bothers me too much I'll substitute another 4 mile walk.

Take care everybody.

Michele
 
Good Morning!

Yesterday I didn't check in, but I did Imax 3. I haven't done that one in a while. I forgot how good and intense it was.
Today was PUB. Also Monday is my cleaning day. I have to go to school tonight too. So I need to get as much done as I can. I want to wash the outside of my windows too. I guess I can do that on Weds. Oh well! I will get to them. I know because my OCD will kick in!:)

Have a great day!
 
Hi ladies:

Today is IMAX 2 or 3 (cant decide), a little run to the store, and heavy chest work at the gym.

I just got back from Victoria,BC and I am having a difficult time adjusting to the heat, humidity, time change and A/C being on everywhere. I left Victoria on Wednesday morning and it was 55 degrees outside with a breeze. I was chilly, comfortable and had had a great night of sleep. SInce returning to Chicago, I havent slept well in 5 days and my allergies are starting to bother me as well. Ugh, Chicago in the summer sucks!!! Yuck!
Hope everyone is doing well.
 
Hello Check-In Friends

We are still working out a morning routine here. Each day is a little different, but we keep tweaking it to get more efficient. :)

The Sept. rotation, although I really like it needs to be put on hold for now. Since my only cardio is bike intervals, a new personal rotation is in order.
Day 1 & 4 - Total body weights, including abs (freestyle for lower body)
Day 2 & 5 - pilates class or yoga and bike intervals
Day 3 & 6 - Lower body (free style) and bike intervals and abs
Day 7 REST

I will try this for a few weeks to see if it is doable.
If I stray from this whip me!!!!}( }( }(

I have not been checking in because I haven't done anything for 4 days. No excuse, just wasn't motivated which is very unusual for me. I've been under a lot of stress and I think I mentally just shut down for a few days. Now I'm fresh and ready to get back to it. I did the weight and stretch parts of Timesaver day 1 and at lunch I have a spinning class.
 
Good Morning Fit Women,

Yesterday was my rest day.

Today will be PUB only. I love this workout, it is my favorite!!

Carla,

Maybe I will clean my windows too....hate those darn spiders though that keep making them nasty webs and making my windows yucky.



Have a great workout everyone

Hi Venus,

Hey, we all go through periods of malaise where we don't feel like sticking with the program. I think it's just fine to take a break if we feel we need to. The important things is you're back and ready to go today--and what GREAT results you've had so far!!!:) :) Keep up the good work.

Good Morning Motivating Ladies!!!

Today on the rotation is Kickmax and since I don't have it, I did KPC in its place. It's the first time I've done the whole thing (I have the timesaver dvd) and I loved it ! I'm really surprised too because I am NOT a kickboxing fan in general. My side and back kicks are low and pathetic!!:p BUT it was a good, hard workout and I feel very energized.
Thank you Sandra and Jane for all the help in picking a substitute workout for today. This was perfect and I may just repeat it Thurs. when KPC really IS on the rotation. ;-)
Oh & IMHO , the music for Abs is some of the best. Very motivating!!
Have a great day everyone!:D
 
Good morning,

Kickmax on the rotation today, this one is just not one of my favs..

Anyways, I did The low impact kickbox premix, then I did the CTX Abs and planks section to make it 75 minutes.

Have a great day!
 
Morning everyone

Hope y'all had a great weekend.

Saturday, I did Imax 3 on an 8" step and it really wasn't too much different to doing Imax 3 on a 6" step. There were a couple of blasts that were more intense, but I didn't modify and felt great after!

Yesterday, I did GS Chest & Tris and the Coremax Tough Abs premix.

I'm not feeling at all well today, and there's a 5 mile run on my rotation, but I'm not sure I'll be able to manage that. I'll have to see how I feel later on. It might be a forced rest day.

Have a good Monday!
 
Good morning fit ladies

>You always have awesome workouts. I was wondering if you split
>them up or did it back to back?

Thanks Carla...today I'll split them. When I am off work I would rather split them up than doing them all at once...:)...Carole
 
Hey Shelley--Sorry to hear you're not feeling well:-( :-( . Something must be going around. Everybody I know and their brother has been sick lately. I had it bad last week. I feel alot better now but I still have coughing fits and once I get started I just can't stop. Anyway, I think that taking a day to rest is a good idea. I know it worked wonders for me. Take care.
Oh--and great job on that IMAX w/o:D .
