Good Morning Girls :)

Today was LIS weights first premix, and then I added the LIS abs. I really don't like the bicycles~ I don't feel them at all! Maybe I will later today.?

Gin~ I hope all goes well for you with your procedure today!

Marcy~ Which yoga did you do?

Tracee~ Did you work out today? I actually lucked out the other day with the P90X purchases. I haven't been on ebay since we bought core synergistics. I just happened over there and an auction for 3 of the dvds I wanted had 7 min. left!! Just pure luck! The last dvd I won, had 2 hours left, I placed my bid and forgot about it (had errands) came back and I won it! So keep checking, It could happen to you!:)

Have a great day!
BBL,

Good morning!

Today was LIS & shoulders but I skipped the step part. I woke up in the night so this morning I slept an extra half hour and just did shoulders and abs. I actually liked the abs much better this morning and didn't mind the bicycles as much. They still don't seem effective in the core for me either but I'm going to keep trying. I really like the way this shoulder workout flows. Probably because I'm not going back and forth with the barbell or moving the risers on the high step, etc.

Marcy - Thanks for offering to watch ebay for me, that would be great! Which state did you want to move to after you sell your house?

My dh went up north last night to prepare for deer hunting today. It was so nice having the bed all to myself. I didn't even let the kids sleep with me. It was also nice to have the covers on the bed neatly this morning. Usually they are all twisted up and untucked because dh moves so much in the night. Now if I could have only figured out a place to send the kids last night I could have had an even more peaceful evening. ;)

Good Morning DMT!

Today I slept later...yeah! Not going in to work today and will go to the dr. in a couple of hours. Ready to get that over with! Today was BC/Bis and Tris. I love BC, still had to modify a little with my HR going up so high. BLAHHH!! Not able to go as heavy as Cathe with some of the Bis and Tris. My workout space was like a tornado hit it after I was through. Stuff all over the place.

Deanie--You are making me want to buy p90x.}( :eek:

Tracee--LOL about the having the bed all to yourself last night. It is the same with my DH. My DH is 6'2" and will untuck the sheets completely before going to bed so he doesn't feel "pinned in" so in the morning the sheets are all over the place, but not when he is out of town!:)

Marcy--I think the yoga dvd I an getting from NetFlix is Shiva Rea. But, don't remember which one. Do you have any of hers?

Have a great day!
Gin:)

ETA: Marcy--Shiva Rea Solar Flow is the name of the dvd I have from NetFlix next week. Have you done this one?
 
Good Morning Ladies!

This morning I did Allan Menezes Advanced Mat Pilates and Eoin Finn's Power Yoga For Happiness Daily Bliss practice. The pilates didn't feel real advanced but towards the end there were a few poses I didn't finish all the reps. The yoga practice really was pure bliss. I love this DVD. He has some amusing sayings like "the grin on your chin is more important than the chin on your shin" and something about ice cream getting licked off your body. He's always talking about smiling. He does lots of great hip openers, no inversions though but I did do some inversions with the pilates. The PY4H has 5 practices on it. I've done three so far and loved them all. I was lucky and got it off ebay which was really surprising because his DVDs were never on ebay before or since I bought the DVD.

Gin - You have to get the X!;) My living room was like a tornado too with BC. I have to modify also. My HR gets pretty high with this one too although I got through everything better this week than last week. I have Shiva Rea's Fluid Power and Yoga Shakti and I love them both. I don't have Solar Flow but I think it might be part of Yoga Shakti (which is really great). For the solar flows, she suggests the following from Yoga Shakti:

General Solar: Choose any opening meditation or Ha Kriya plus one or two Sun Saluations and Shavasana

Solar: Core Strength - Choose a sun salutation, Core Abs, Shoulder Openers, Standing Pose Flow One or Two, Handstand, and Shavasana

Solar: Backbends: Rhythmic Vinyasa 2, Dancing Warrior 2, Lunge Preparation, Backbend Flow One though Three, Supine Poses, Shavasana

Solar: Creative Vitality - Rhythmic Vinyasa One & Two, Dancing Warrior Four, Ha Kriya, Prana Yoga, Shavasana

Does any of this sound like what you have?

Tracee - My DH is always tucking the sheets between his legs and he's always shortchanging the covers from my side. I thought the shoulder workout flowed very well too. I'll check ebay in a little while and let you know if I find anything. I plan on moving to Georgia but the only bad thing is they have a severe drought down there right now so hopefully the rains will come before I move.

Deanie - I don't feel anything from bicycles either. They were easier for me yesterday but still didn't do anything for me. I felt things more today when I did slow bicycles in pilates.

Have a great day, ladies. BBL.

Hi Again!

Tracee/Gin - There's an auction for the whole system (12 DVDs including manuals) for $65.00 with free shipping. There's 3 hours left. There are also lots of deals from mdbfitcoach with free shipping from $31.00 to $57.00 for the whole set. Another one starts at $.99 plus $20.00 shipping for the set, manuas and chinup bar (I think that one has 2 days left). I think all of these deals are for brand new sets.

Marcy
 
Thanks for checking on that for us Marcy. I don't really want the whole system if I can help it. Unless it was a really good price.

I found a place that can totally destroy any good eating I might have developed. We have a place close by called the Grand Traverse Pie Company. They have sandwiches and soups but also pies, cakes, muffins, cookies, etc. I love pecan pie and Thanksgiving time is about the only time I allow myself to enjoy it. Yum!

Anyway, have a good evening.

Tracee:

My good eating just got destroyed too. We had a Thanksgiving party at work. Had a little piece of strawberry cheesecake and a friend and I shared yellow cake with buttercream icing which was delicious. I also had a turkey sandwich and stuffing. I did hold off on a cupcake though.

I got P90X for $79.99 plus $20.00 shipping so if you can get them for $65.00 or under without shipping plus all the manuals and a chinup bar, it's a good deal. I would agree though if you get them separately, you could skip Cardio X, Stretch X, Yoga X and Ab Ripper X. Ab Ripper X is already on all the strength workouts.

Hi DMT!

I know you guys are long gone, but I seem to have more time late in the day to post as compared to morning.
The Cryo Procedure was not as bad as I had expected. Uncomfortable and crampy during and crampy for a couple of hours after. My doc was talking to me about his Thanksgiving all during, which took my mind off of what was really going on!:eek:
Two of the moms in my classroom just brought over dinner. Soooo sweet. I am embarrased!

Marcy--I really didn't look at the details of the Shiva Rea Yoga dvd, and I don't get it until next week. But, I'll let you know.
Okay...I am slowly inching towards thinking about buying p90x. You guys are such enablers!x( Would I be better off buying the whole thing OR just the 5 that I want: Chest&Back, Shoulders & Arms, Legs & Back, Chest, Shoulders& Triceps, and Back& Biceps?

Talk to you girls tomorrow!
Gin:)
 
Hey Gin~ From what Marcy has said, and what I've read on the forums, Cathes cardio is better. Also with the new series, its not as intense, which is what I understand P90X is (less intense cardio). I was personally looking for the best deal. I spoke to the people at P90X and if I bought just the weight work from them it would have been $150.00!!!! Also, for me, I think I would utilize the weight work more than the other, so its a better investment. I remember Marcy saying before we only really needed the weight work. It would be great if you got the X!!!!}( :)
