Getting Our Licks In!

Today was threatening rain for Rolly and me and when we got to the beach you can see a big dark cloud with rain coming down from the distance. I went back home and a good thing because as soon as I got home it rained. Got in at least 25 min. though. Tonight was 4DSplit Boot camp. Modified a lot! LOL I've started another portrait. This one will be very unusual. Also drilled holes in the shells I picked up and am looking forward to tangling in them.

Michelle, Great job on PLB yesterday. I hope I sell the shells too. Thinking about pendants and using ribbon and or leather strips. I can see love hate with MIC. LOL You did good.

ReneeP, Sounds like your little dog is learning the leash. My Rolly is about 14 pounds and I consider him small. He walks all over the place with me and never complains. I think dogs can walk longer than we think. Just keep an eye on her. Great job on bi and and tris last night for 27 min. and a mile jog. Whoo Hoo! Also on Sat. yoga. It's raining here too. bummer

Take care ladies,

Janie
 
Quick check in: Slide and Glide cardio only and MMA Fusion this morning. Yeah, Cathe has a sense of humor.

ReneeP: quick comment on how far can you walk a small dog. I really don't know because I'm a large breed person, but that being said: at least if your pup gets tired, you can pick her up and carry her!

Michelle you are right and I did that to but I can't jog with her I tried lol she bobs to much I was thinking of stinking her in a back pack and on my back but that may be to jarring to.

I did 4 DS low impact circuit premix 68 min I wanted weights but cardio to so it was good together but not enough lifting yet not enough cardio either this was a good workout anyway. Yesterday I didn't do anything.
 
what is the color of your exercise room? Your bedroom and your bath? I am wanting to paint my family/exercise room so it looks more tranquil but energetic, my bathroom and bath I want a spa feel so I am thinking of a soft orange for exercise room and tan for bedroom and green for bath but I cant figure the best shades that wont look gross
 
I have my sights elsewhere because of HI coming up soon, trying to finish a portrait, making copies of the portraits and sending them out to their owners... I'm so sorry for being MIA. When we are in HI (for Joe's 75th birthday from his children) I won't be able to post until I get back. Unless I find a computer someplace for guests. Who knows. Please continue on with the posts.

Michelle, Great job on S&G and cardio only and MMA Fusion this morning.

ReneeP, Great job on 4S low impact circuit premix for 68 min. Hop you enjoyed your rest day. I have a white shell color throughout the house. Makes things nice for me. I also think living with color is great. I just don't know how to do that to my house. Have fun!

Woke up yesterday morning at 3:30 and couldn't go back to sleep. Stressed over work but I took steps to deal with that yesterday. Didn't exercise yesterday, so CardioLeg Blast was today. Fun, fun workout.

ReneeP: my bedroom is my exercise room and the color is some type of off-white. One of these days it will get painted a light blue. If I had an exercise room, I'd probably go with some type of tan color. There are so many colors these days. You can also take a swatch of material that paint stores can scan and create the color that matches whatever you want it to. Skies the limit on paint colors it seems. That's probably part of the problem--too many choices.

Janie: Very exciting, I'd almost forgotten about the trip that you and Joey are taking to Hawaii. Just about all hotels these days have computers that guests can use, but you just have a good time. Don't worry about checking in. We will be here when you get back. Who is taking care of Rolly and the cats?

I did the Michelle one today and it was fun!! it had a dance feel to it on some moves, it also have boxing moves and kick box moves and hinds man and even older moves like sashay's functional moves that i should be able to do lol
any how it was fun i did sweat and it was not as hard as Tabatas for Cathe HIIT but it is harder then some of her other ones, so I think it will do great on a day i need to work out but not to the level of a tabata or HIIT, I actually think i can make it a HIIT one day i mean once i get the moves perfected I think i can bring the level up even more, but i think that is what i loved about this workout today was it can be an easy day or you can pick it up to be moderate or do the moves like her to make it crazy hard. I usually cant do all reps in Cathes HIIT i mean i have to take a brake before she does but in this one i felt like i didn't have to stop sooner then they did so it made me feel like i was accomplishing something. but i also did not jump as high because i didn't know how much jumping i had to do.. so now i think once i do it a few times i can tell you more later. But so far i am NOW looking into buying the whole set the peak 10 system.. any one try it??

yes Michelle that is the problem to many choices so many shades of colors grr

Jane i hope you have a blast!!
 
Been very busy putting together with my Joey a shed in the back yard. It was fun working together, but couldn't do my exercises today. I also had to finish up the portrait. I will be done with it tomorrow. We will be moving back to Shelton and getting ready for the HI trip. Have lots of things to do around the house and many errands. When we get back from HI, will move back to the Beach House. Should have time tomorrow for a workout.

Michelle, My daughter will be taking care of our animals. She's happy to do it. :D Hope you get caught up on your sleep. Great job on Cardio Leg Blast today.

ReneeP, Great job on your exercises today. Your stradegy for improving your exercise sounds good.

Take care,

Janie
 
This is called Michaela. Will come back for personals.

Update: Joey and I worked so hard on the shed so much that I got cranky. Truly did a workout without Cathe this time. LOL

Finished up the second week of the June rotation over the weekend and started the 3rd week today with KickMax--the whole dang thing. It has been eons since I've done this workout, let alone the whole thing (including the blasts)--eesch! Looking forward to IMAX3 tomorrow.

Hope everyone had a nice weekend and a lovely father's day.

Hi all quick check in from my phone. No internet yet. But! I am moved into the new place at least in part one. Jeff arriving with Clara in a few days. Household goods from Idaho coming by the end of the month! Best to you all!
 
My daughter is having a hard time with a panic attach, so I went to her house to help out. Yesterday we went to Hot Yoga for 65 min. My very first time. Wow I left once because I was too hot and then came back and when it was time for stretches I just couldn't do any more. Also I had to lay down a few time during the practice. Sooooooooo different! Today will be going again. My goal is to stay in the room until it's over. Well see. If nothing else, I can pretend I'm in a sauna. LOL

Michelle, Great job on finishing up with the June rotation. Congratulations! Also on doing KickMax the whole thing! Yea!

ReneeP, Great job on HS and walking three miles. How are those photos coming along? Still interested?


Deb, So glad you made it through the move. Not an easy task and I don't envy you at all. Looks like everything is coming into play.

Take care ladies,

Janie
 
Wasn't able to exercise yesterday due to a very long work day, so I did IMAX3 this morning and I'll do supercuts later this afternoon. Then I'll be back on track with the rotation.

Janie: no, not done with the June rotation, just with week 2--now I'm in the middle of week 3. My sister did a hot yoga class back during the winter. She said it was HOT, HOT, HOT. Plus yoga is not her favorite thing, but she was glad she gave it a try.

Shadowpup: it is nice that your family is here with you. Sounds like your life is normal: busy, busy, busy. Hope you are getting time in with Picante.

ReneeP: HS is one of my favs. Fun workout.

~michelle
 
Nice walk this morning with my pup. June has been a decent month overall weatherwise as far as heat and humidity go (or lack thereof). Maybe the rest of the summer will be the same--LOL! After our walk, I did LIS Total Body Trisets Upper Body. If my boss gets out of her meeting on time (at 5pm), we'll do supercuts. If not, then not.

Hope everyone is doing well.
~michelle
 
Getting ready for HI and didn't exercise today. :( No excuse really.:eek:

Michelle, Oh, then congratulations for finishing 1 and 2 weeks of June rotation LOL:) Great job on IMAX3. Hang in there with work. Must be intense. Also great job on the morning walk with your beloved pup. And LIS total body trisets, Upper body.

Take care,

Janie
 
We went padel boating today jogging yesterday,
Jane I have not gotten any ideas yet on how I can take them yet but I am still interested. I hope I can figure something out soon
 
I've been humbled today. I wanted to do another portrait of yet another niece with her husband. Thinking since everyone seemed and said they love it, she would as well. However, she couldn't get passed the idea that" things are around her". She even said (to help my feelings from getting hurt) that she is very self critical. It may be that it's the truth, but she is one of the most beautiful people I've ever met. And in my mind can't figure out why she would feel that way. Any hoo, I've been knocked down a peg and with good reason.:mad: I shouldn't really think that all people will like my art style or form. I will have to ask in a very different way next time. Today was 30/30, yep can't go wrong with this one.

ReeenP, Great job on jogging and boat paddling. How fun! It's OK, take all the time you need to figure it out. I'll be here when you are ready.

Take care,

Janie
 
Today is Joey and Mine 22 wedding anniversary. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and took a short walk, made scallop and shrimp kabobs, had a sampler of cheese cake and watched our favorite series in a marathon. It was a wonderful day.
Also I asked another niece if I could draw her and she said yes it would be an honor. This one will be a challenge for me because she is a black women. I've never in my life sketched a black person. Beautiful as all get out. However, there are some people before her that I have to do first. I can't wait to do hers though. Something to look forward to.

Take care,

Janie
