Good Morning Girlies!

Today was just a run day and I decided to wait until next week to do Step Fit. My brother and nephew are coming in for the weekend so need to clean up the house and go to store and make a dessert for a dinner we are going to first. I will get to see my younger son b/c he will be at the dinner tonight.....yeah! Haven't seen him since mid August. All of this after school.

Deanie--Hope we didn't start the thread at the same time. Enjoy your family. I saw your post to Cathe. Curious as to what she will say.

Hi Tracee and Marcy--Hope you have a good day!

Good Morning All!

Today was BC/ME premix. I never did this before and really liked it (well, except for those darn bicep curls which just went on forever and ever!}(). I got a little creative again (you know how I hate squats, lunges and leg presses), so here's what I did for legs:

Curtsey lunges
one-legged deadlifts
one-legged balance squats (with leg on chair a la P90X)
step downs with arabesque
Alternating side lunges
Pulses in attitude
crescent kicks, reverse crescent kicks
plie toe squats
Grand Battements (front, side, back, side turn and do other side) I lost count of how many times.
Pelvic raises

I can't wait to go back to heavy lifting.

Deanie/Gin - Enjoy your visits with your families.

Deanie - Saw your post to Cathe. Hope she responds.

Tracee - Any games this weekend? Hope you managed to get a workout in today.

Hi Again!

Deanie - I guess you'll have to wait until November. Cathe wants you to familiarize yourself with the workouts first. I'm fine with our October rotation and you can spend two weeks previewing which means you'll have all the step combinations perfect for November, right? We can make up all our workout sheets in the meantime so we'll be all ready.

Good Afternoon Girls

Busy morning and I slept in! so I just finished working out. I did CTX kickbox (which I forgot how much I enjoy this and will try to add it in more often, maybe as a sub for KM) and then I got lazy and just did the abs and stretch from CTX kickbox A really enjoyable workout, and since the kids weren't home, I turned up the volume and really had fun!!

Marcy~ I saw Cathe answered my post (exciting!! ) So I guess I will have to wait. So I will be doing the Oct. rotation and yes, previewing to have all the steps down! LOL! I love how you add your own legwork into the workouts, with me doing something different from Cathe, I would get confused with counting and probably switch back and forth from what she's doing to what I would want to do (does that make sense?) My DH would say I am having a "blond" moment!

Gin~ Have a great time cleaning! ha! I mean have a great time with your family this weekend! I will be cleaning momentarily also. My brother will be here tomorrow morning.

Tracee~ I hope your having a nice day and enjoying your rest week! You will need it for S&H!!

I guess we won't be checking in this weekend. So I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend :7 :7

Hello GDM!

I jumped right out of bed this morning so I wouldn't let myself sleep in! Since I don't have the dvd's for BC and ME I just did BC without the ab sections and then added ME abs at the end. I really wish I would have been able to do the actual premix but that's ok.

Marcy - I'm really looking forward to heavy lifting again too. I'm definitely packing on some fat in my mid section and I'm hoping that going back to heavy lifting will take some of that away.

Deanie - Have fun with your brother this weekend. That's cool that Cathe answered your question, especially since she's so rarely on the boards anymore.

Gin - Have fun with your family this weekend too. I always say having company is the only way I get my house clean otherwise I would never do it. Ha!

We're expecting great weather this weekend in MI and I'll be outside for sports so I'm excited. Most of my Saturday is free so I'm not sure exactly what I'll do and Sunday we have two football games. Hopefully, it won't be too hot for the kids playing but I know it's going to be nice for me.
