Good Morning Peeps.

DOMS is runnin' rampant in my u/b right now! WOOT!

DH is playing golf this morning and then we will head up to my SIL's to spend the afternoon celebrating Father's Day with my inlaws. Usually always a fun time. :)

My work out for today is cardio and hopefully some Tonique. Would like to squeeze in the abs and inner thighs again too if I can ofcourse!

BBL~
 
Good Morning!

Feels like I have been up foreverrrr!! So far the day isn't going that great:( I went on call for my coworker last night and of course I got called in around 9:30 which wasn't to bad. Then when I went to bed, I couldn't fall asleep. DS woke up around 4 and joined us, from that point on I woke up alot until I got up at 5:40...to go to work again! While I was getting my paper work ready for the pilots that were leaving...here comes my 7:30 flight...1 hour early:mad: Then we had all kinds of cc issues...couldn't reach my managed...yada yada! Of course it all got sorted out in the end, but grant it, most of this happened while I was drinking my coffee, which I did not enjoy b/c of the disasters that were happening around me!:confused: Anyway...I don't know what time I will get out of here today but I won't be staying to late. And Im not sure when I will get my workout in either...if I get it in at all.

I had a blast on Fri night, a good crowd showed up at the house and I had a hang over yesterday:eek: I still managed to run for 9.5 km but my head was hurting!!! Not good at all! Then this stupid dirt bike kept passing me and making awful noises. I couldn't wait to just go back to bed!!!

Wendy** How long of a rotation are you doing? Just the 3 month? I am kinda tempted to do it again but I also want to do more UB and Im not sure how I can fit it all in!! Have a good day with the fam!

Diana** Did you get your chores done yesterday?? My kitchen was a mess yesterday morning but atleast it was contained to one room.

Jaqcue** Sounds like you had a lovely night with DH.

I will bbl!

Punky CHECKS IN!!!

Hi Ladies:

Happy to join in this early Father's Day morning! It's 6 am California time; trying to decide which cardio to do this am, probably Low Impact Circuit.

DD has a friend sleeping over, so I'm gonna keep the video quiet in the front room. I was surprised they fell asleep early-- weird for two teenage girls!

DS1 is sleeping over at a friend's. They played poker late into the night in Tiburon. Spent all yesterday packing his kitchen, bath, and bedroom supplies for his college dorm room. Can't believe he's moving to Arizona for four whole years, then overseas probably after that. My baby is growing up and moving away :( I'll have my good cry soon, I'm sure. At least we get a week's vacation in Tucson in August as we move him in.

DS2 sleeping peacefully. DH doesn't know I'm giving him a nice gift card to Best Buy for Father's Day. Neither does my checkbook, yet, LOL!

DIANA: Tell me how Father's Day went! Cream cheese frosting sounds delectable.... MMMMMMM!!:)
JACQUE: I miss your fun self!
WENDY-- I saw you liked something I did on FB (can't remember what) Glad to get to know you. Why, again, did you want a tattoo? Just for fun, maybe?
GIDGET (LORI): I used to be called "Gidget" all through high school because I surfed (or tried to!!! LOL)-- do people call you that at home?

Off to Low Impact Circuit. Have a beautiful summer day everyone:cool:
 
Hey Gals.

My work out is done. Once I am done posting here I will shower and head to the park with DS for a bit to enjoy some sunshine. :)

Work out....
Cardio:
LowMax 4-7 premix including combos and blasts
Lower Body Endurance:
Original Tonique Mat Work discluding abs
Additional L/B floor work:
100 inner thigh stability ball squeezes
40 outer thigh reps per side
50 quad reps per side
Abs:
25 side plank dips per side
50 lower ab reps

Lori:: Sorry you are having a cr@ppy time of it at work. Chalk it up to a bad day and move on. Today should be a better one! Hope you get to fit a work out in!

PunkyJen:: Enjoy LIC! Haven't done that one in ages. I remember my mom crying when she left me at college and I was only 90 minutes away from home! How often will DS be able to come home to visit or will you go see him at all? I have 3 tattoos already so this one will not be my first. Me and my best friend (who has none, mind you) used to talk in highschool about getting a tattoo when we turned 18. Well it never happened and my first one was quite spur of the moment at age 25. After that I was hooked. Got my 2nd at about 28, my third at about 36 and now at 38 I am going for #4. I am not really sure what the allure is for me but I like them a lot as long as they are not too extreme. I am not a fan of those who have thier bodies covered but a man with full sleeves doesn't bother me one bit. I actually dated a guy who had them! My first 3 are just pictures that I like but this 4th one will have meaning. I'm very excited to get it! Wow, that was long-winded! Sorry! LOL

BBL!
 
Hi ladies,

ACK...I never got to my workout yesterday. Need to stop this habit soon. I was planning on running this morning, but my BH DVD's arrived yesterday and I want to try them out. I previewed about 20 min of the weight workout....it looks tough. He mentioned using 12lbs as the heavy weight. Once I saw what they were doing I could see why; I may even try using 8s and 10s. You never stop moving. The segment I watched did all these moves separately, but then put together as:
squat
jump your feet back and do a pushup
jump feet back in and stand up
bicep curl up to
overhead press
lower arms to shoulders
bicep curl down
repeat.......

Wendy-as always...quite motivating seeing your w/o already done! Hope you have a wonderful day with the family! Have you previewed the BH dvd's? It looks like there are 2 w/o on each dvd, a short one and a long one. I may try the short cardio tomorrow morning since I have to be to work early on Monday's.

Lori-Hope the day improves for you. Funny, I like STS but want an extra leg day whereas you prefer extra UB.

PunkyJen-LIC is a fun w/o. So DS1 is heading off to college soon. It was hard on me when my oldest moved out. You should be so proud of him. You will still get to see him over the holidays and maybe summer to. Actually, the carrot cake is not a big hit at my house. DH requested so that's what I made him, the rest of us don't really care for it.

Jacque-do you have anything going on today? The BH DVD's contain 4 discs for only $40 including shipping and handling. I'm going to try to go through them all this week and will give you my opinion of them.

I just looked outside and it's pretty overcast...nice for a when...what do to..what to do..!

Hi Ladies,

I just finished BH hour long weight w/o. I used weights ranging from 5-12#'s...and it was tough. Shoulders, Tri's and Bi's get worked really well. My arms were trembling! There's also a lot of plank work and pushups, but the leg work is light IMO.

I'm going to do the cardio w/o now. The previews make it look really tough! Wish me luck.
 
Good afternoon girls !

Well I was up at 6, cleaning the kitchen, folding clothes, sweeping, washing rugs, watering the veggies and harvesting some ! :p DH finally got up about 9 so the original plan to see Dad before he went shooting clays went out the door. Got my PLB done, finished up the front yard and DS1 called. Talked to him for an hour+. He and DIL have their anniv on Wed so the boys will stay with me half day thru the night, then DS & DIL will come down Thurs to eat, stay the night and take off on Fri. Should be fun - LOL at DH's face when I told thim that . . . he says "they are staying here?" He isn't quite the "family type" and all his family except one of the 4 bros live in town. Guess that makes it a little different for him.

Wendy - So what did you think of STS other than being happy for DOMS? And you haven't tested out the BH's yet? :confused: So unlike you to wait. Will be anxious to see what you think.

Lori - bummer about your work day. At least you got a run in y'day, hangover and all ! ;)

Jen - good to see you here more frequently ! LIC is one of my favs - great workout for Low Impact. I am a definite fan of circuits. Well I'm gonna guess that you will definitely will be down in AZ lots - heck, the air fares from SF or Oakland are pretty cheap and it is quite a beautiful state - very different than CA. I do miss the everyday interaction with the kids, but it is so nice to see how they have grown up and become dependent. And eventually the grandkids are just the bestest ! :D So what will take him overseas? Does DH already have something at Best Buy in mind? I'm sure he'll have fun shopping.

Diana - hope it isn't me rubbing off on you as far as the lack of w/o's lately ! :eek: Good to hear you got lots made up today. I'm with you on the lighter legs but it is hard to do combo moves with heavy enough weights for the legs unless, perhaps, you put a weighted vest on? That might help a bit? Can't wait for your review on the BH series too - I really can't pass that up, just need to pay bills again and see where I stand. I should be getting an increase here in the next couple months so think it will be my treat !:rolleyes: I love carrot cake - especially the cream cheese frosting ! Glad I don't live near you or I might have to help DH eat it ! :p

Until tomorrow . . . cheers ladies !
