Good morning!
No workout for me yet. I was on the waitlist for Punch class, but decided to cancel that and try out a new Crossfit gym instead. The owner/trainer used to run the YMCA class I went to a few times last summer; she's awesome! The class is today at 5:00 pm, so i'll let y'all know tomorrow how it went.
Wendy: Thanks for getting us started for the month. Awwww, your DH is super sweet!!! Flowers and balloons and cards, oh my! Maybe your DH can give my DH lessons. It sounds like you had a lovely birthday. Boo on not being able to demonstrate exercises on Monday. I'm sure you'll pick up the new workouts in no time! I love being busy at work. It's soooo much better than being slow/out of work. Maybe you can put tape or something over your snooze button so you can't press it in the mornings. Food for thought.
Wiggie: Sounds like you did a goodie this morning. I know a workout is top notch when my arms are on fire at the end. Great job pushing through to the end. I have a bad habit of missing reps when my arms start burning...I need to push through that instead of wimping out. Oops!

Hello.
It's lunch time!
So this morning's work out was a very good one despite it's unintended breavity but I went too heavy on the BB weight for the squats and deadlifts so I admit to not finishing the last set of lifts. My back was killing me! Making a note to go lighter next time. I did lighten up during the last set of DL's but by then it was too late.
Katie:: Crossfit always piqued my interest but looked too "brutal" for me to have the nerve to try. Plus it's just too dang expensive! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it! The PT Studio owner I am working with would scold you though. Just so you know. LOL He hates Crossfit....among many other things! I use my cell phone as my alarm and all I have to do is take the sleep timer setting off but I refuse to b/c I'm afraid I'll REALLY oversleep then!
Wiggie:: Upper Body Transformer! I think I remember that one burning me too! Great job! I can't demonstrate at the studio until I am familiar with the work out...maybe after a couple of run throughs...we'll see! 30? Me!? Surely you josh but man I love you! Try 41 baby! YIKES!
K, gotta scram! BBL!

Morning!
Well, crossfit yesterday was....interesting. I'm not sure if it's my style of working out. Now watch me become a crossfit addict, lol! It was fun to try, but the actual "workout" was really short (less then 20 minutes) and the rest was focusing on form, etc. for the power lifting-type moves. I hope that makes sense. When my Groupon at the kickboxing gym expires, i'll prolly give crossfit another shot. Why not! It was a fun way to shock my body. I just don't see me falling in love with it.
With that said, this morning I returned to good ole' Cathe and did BOOTCAMP! I love that workout. It's tough but so much fun. Classic Cathe. I think i'm going to do Cathe's http://cathe.com/forum/f100/july-2012-rotation-289653/ next. It focuses a lot on To The Max and Crossfit (it was created right after the release of those workotus). I really need lots of circuits and cardio to get this weight off for summer, and this rotation seems to fit the bill. The rotation does repeat either CF or TTM each week, so i'm going to skip the "repeat" workout and substitute Punch class instead.
Wendy: Nice workout! I love plank climbs. I know i'm weird, lol! How is your back feeling this morning? Hopefully it has sufficiently recovered from yesterday's torture session. LOL @ your pt not liking crossfit. I'm not surprised. Crossfit seems to be its own special beast. It really wasn't "brutal", but then again this was my first class. It is kind of expensive. The Crossfit gym I visited yesterday is $12/class OR $95/month for 3 classes/week OR $110/month unlimited. If I continue i'll probably just pay per class.
Hi Wiggie! What fun are you getting into today?

Katie:: Actually the pt studio I am working with is more expensive then your Cross Fit gym! Check it out:: Schedule and Rates I couldn't even AFFORD a membership! He'd better pay well! Glad the crossfit session you attended wasn't too bad. You mean they didn't have you harnessed to a mack truck yet telling you to pull it across the parking lot? It's good that they spent a good amount of time focusing on form since it was your first time there. The pt guy would approve of that atleast! LOL Changing it up is good but don't put pressure on yourself to commit to Crossfit. Just have fun with it. Go when you want something different. When you say "plank climbs" do you mean "plank to push up"?? Have fun with the July rotation if you definitely do it. Subbing in Punch for the second CF or TTM is a good idea! My back is fine. I cut the deadlifts short and foam rolled and I was good to go after that!

Good morning Foxy Ladies!!
Thursdays workout was Speed & Agility, I intended to do it twice since it's only 20 minutes but didn't. I am going to visit my daughter tonight & hang out with her & Bailee. In the morning I have a hair appointment, the shop is down the street from her. That's why I decided to spend the night instead of getting up early to drive down.
Have a great day!!

Hey Ladies. Good Morning! TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!
Did I tell you that I had ordered these: adidas Adipure Lace Trainer 1.1 Shoes for my B'day as a gift from my DH? Well I did and I got them a couple days ago. I did my first work out in them this morning!
Here's today's work out::
1 time thru @ 15r/30w:
Plank hold with med ball roll between hands.
Bicep curl with tubing while laying in bridge position on stability ball.
Weighted punching combo (jab cross hook upper) on one side.
Core stability exercise that has no name. LOL
Squat with calf raise and bicep curl at the top.
Weighted punching combo (jab cross hook upper) on other side.
Alternating side plank with hip dips.
Static hold with weights for biceps.
Weighted punch comb (jab r, jab l, cross r, cross l, hook r, hook l, upper r, upper l)
8 @ 10r/20w:
Plie jump squats with firewalker band around ankles.
Jumping lunges holding med ball.
Now of course to get the most out of this work out I obviously should have repeated the first part of it at least one or two more times but I kept it short on purpose since it was the maiden voyage of my new training shoes! I will do it again the "right" way in the future. It was a good work out!

Hello again!!
Friday's workout was a stair workout with DD & her friends. There is a high set of steps at the state house in downtown Columbia that we used. First we ran up the stairs straight, then we went up sideways left side leading, then went up right side leading, then 2 steps at a time, then bunny hopped up. We did that 5 times. When we finished we did 20 suicide runs chased by 20 jumping jacks, that was done 3 times. It was a good wokout. Very different for me. After my hair appt DD & I shopped all day so the only workout I did today(Sat) was alot of walking.
Wendy: That workout looks awesome!
Hope you Ladies are enjoying your weekend!!

Hi ladies!!
Whew, busy weekend here. I took off work Friday and spent the day with my nephews. They wore me out! Thank goodness Friday was my rest day. Friday evening my nephew and I picked up two, 4-week old kittens from the local humane society. My husband and I decided to foster them for 1 month. They are sooo cute, but a lot of work too. It's well worth it, though. I tried to post a picture, but can't figure out how to do that on here. Anyway, we spent all day Saturday assembling a new swing-set for my nephews and Sunday my DH and I went to my sister-in-law's house for the afternoon.
I somehow mangaged to sneak in a few workouts this weekend. Saturday I did Athletic Training which is one of my all-time favs. Sunday I did Low Impact Challenge. I was surprised how sweaty I was at the end. It's one of those where i'm never huffing and puffing but i'm sweating like crazy. This work I did Intensity warmup + both Hiits followed by Total Body Trisets: Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps premix. Together the workout lasted just shy of an hour. I loved this combo! And, i'm happy to report I did ALL the pushups on my toes. All 60 of them. That's not counting the dive bomber pushups. I can't quite get my form right on those, but i'm working on it.
Certified PT: Congrats Wendy!!!!! I saw on Facebook you are now officially certified. That's so exciting! And you deserve it after all your hard work. Sooo, what did you think of the adidas shoes? How did they feel? Did you do any more workouts in them this weekend? Wow, you're right the pt studio is crazy expensive. The higher the membership the more a PT gets paid, though, right?
Wiggie: What an excellent workout on Friday! I love your creativity. I also think it's great that you workout with your daughter. More parents should exercise with their children. It sounds like you had a great weekend with your daughter and Bailee. I think a lot of walking counts as a workout.

Good morning!!
Sunday's workout was Shoulder Shredder, Fusion Lower Body, about 40 minutes of Step 2 Success & Hip Hop Abs Take It To The Dance Floor, spread out during the day. I have officially completed 2 weeks of the JNL rotation!!
Katie: Sounds as thought you had a wonderful time with your nephews!! How old are they? I love kittens, I wish they could stay that small. As they get larger I don't like them as much. I have 2 that have taken up residence though, I have to admit they are growing on me. I buy cat food for them so evidently I don't want them to leave. AT is a fave of mine also. I am determined to finish this rotation, after that I will play with Cathe. I have done workouts that didn't seem that hard, & I am so sweaty I could wring water out of my clothes, what's up with that?
Great job on those pushups!!

Hello.
Sorry I went MIA this weekend. I guess time just got away from me.
On Saturday morning I participated in the work out that I observed last Monday and now tonight I will help him lead it. It was a super tough class but the moves themselves are much more basic in nature which is probably a good thing for me.
Sunday was a rest day.
This morning I was ready to do a full body circuit I created but my DS wasn't feeling well last night so I was up with him for a while in the middle of the night. Needless to say, I chose to sleep in when that alarm went off at 4:30....There's always tomorrow, right?
Thank you ladies for the congrats on the cert. Now that HARD PART begins!
Katie:: Wow sure sounds like you were busy but having a great time this weekend! Another friend of mine just did AT this morning and we were discussing how tough it is! The kittens are soooooo cute! I saw the pics on FB! How in the world are you going to give them up in a month??? This is why I could never foster an animal...unless the intention all along was to keep it if I fell in love! Dive bomber push ups are uber tough. No worries if you aren't great at them. Just do a regular push up instead! I love the Adidas Adipures so far! I wore them around the house twice and worked out in them twice so far. The first 3 times I put them on, one of my toes was uncomfortable for whatever reason but by the time I put them on on Saturay (the 4th time) for the PT session, I had no trouble at all! They definitely take some getting used to - how much depends on each individual. As for getting paid more if the client pays more-that's not always the case. It depends on how the system is set up. At the gym I interned at, that is exactly how it works but some places just pay a flat hourly rate no matter what the client is charged. I really don't know how this guy is going to pay but I'll let you know when I find out! I'm thinking that maybe you get paid one rate for working with a client on a session that is included in the membership they paid for and another rate for any EXTRA sessions they pay for. That's just my guess though!
Wiggie:: Congrats back atcha for completing TWO SOLID WEEKS of a rotation! That's amazing! LOL-too funny that you don't like cats but yet you feed two strays! You are such a bleeding heart!

Good Morning.
Just about ready to head in for my work out. I've been awake since 3am. No one's fault but my own. I think maybe I was paranoid about not getting up in time to fit in a good work out so I laid in bed awake until just after 4.
So I lead the group training session last night almost completely on my own! I am still squeamish about correcting form so I let him do that but I explained/demonstrated all of the moves and set up all of the equipment, etc! I did so well that he sat down to do paperwork, went outside to take a phone call, etc! LOL I am going back on Wednesday to try my hand at a regular PT session!
K, off to be my own PT now, lol, but I'll be back!

Good morning!
Today's workout was another two-parter. I started with TBT: Back/Biceps/Core premix followed by TBT: Lower Body split (the whole thing). I love the lower body workout. It gets my heart pumping! Overall, it was a great workout and I feel very accomplished.
Wiggie: Wow, 2 weeks of a single rotation! You go girl!!! I'm very impressed. Now you finish that rotation missy. Whew, your Sunday workout sounds exhausting. Great job! My nephews are 6.5 and 2.5 years old. They are so much fun (but also a hand full). I agree with Wendy, you are a bleeding heart, lol! Which, of course, is a great thing. I'm sure those kitties are very appreciative of the food, love, and attention.
Wendy: Sounds like you had a fantastic night at the PT studio. WTG!!!!!! I'm sure each time you lead the workout you'll get a little bit more confident. I love correcting form. I do it to my sister all the time when we work out. It drives her nuts, lol! Without mirrors, it's so hard to make sure form is spot-on like it needs to be. I think that's why I sometimes injury myself (my form is off but I don't know it). I'm not sure how i'm going to give the kittens up at the end of the month. Well, that's not entirely true. They are NOT litterbox trained yet and i'm constantly cleaning up messes. If that continues I think it might be easier than expected to give them back. Another great workout I see. What's a stability ball mountain climber? That sounds like fun!!

Katie,
Here's just one example of a stability ball mountain climber. I usually do them knee to opposite elbow or knee to chest but this is a great option as well: Stability Ball Mountain Climber.AVI - YouTube
I think the kitties will be trained before the month is up and you will want to keep them. That's just my guess though.
Great job with your work out! TBTS is great! One of my faves for weight work ala' Cathe!
If you love correcting form then you need to get yourself certified and start training people, woman! I am squeamish specifically at the studio right now b/c anyone I would correct at this point is a member who the owner has been training and most of whom were members before I ever set foot in the place so I kinda feel like I have no right, so to speak, suggesting to them that they are doing an exercise incorrectly. Now if a new client walks in and I am with them from the start, showing them what to do then I'll be fine with it. Does that make any sense or am I nuts?

Good morning!!
Sorry about being MIA but sometimes when I go to this site I get a malicious url warning & get kicked out. Monday's workout was Bicep Builder & Tuesday's workout was Lean Legs & TKO Fat Blast.
Katie: I bet your nephews are a hand full!! Especially the 2 year old! Kids are soo much fun, my nephews are 16 & 13 now. I spent a lot of time with them when they were small. It really seems like just yesterday!! I promise I will finish the rotation, this time. Great workout for you!
Wendy: WTG, taking the lead, soo proud of you!! I knew you'd be great at this!! The owner is showing he has confidence in your abilities, smart man!!
Oh, I almost forgot to mention a Trader Joe's just opened in Columbia. It is always packed, you have to wait on a parking space!! I like the store though, lots of healthier versions of not so healthy foods!!
Have a great day Ladies!!
