It is hard turning my hours back around. This morning I did STS Total Body. I raised the weight on most of the exercises. Workout was 67 min and I burned 387 calories. I then did Lower Body Blast floorwork with my blue extra heavy perform better loop and 3 lb ankle weights, 9 miin, 41 calories. For Cardio I did Rapid Fire shadow boxing and kickbox 2, 26 min and 171 calories, I finished with Amy Bento's Rumble active Stretch 13 min 52 calories. Total workout time was 1 hr 47 minutes and calories burned was 610. I will come back and post weights. I need to get a shower while the grandbaby is napping.
 
Good Morning -

Missed a couple days checking in. It looks like everyone is still hitting it hard. Doing Insanity with that stitch (translation: dagger :eek:) in my side made me feel pretty ... accomplished (last Thursday), but I was compensating and using a little muscle in my upper thigh, which is now a bit unhappy with me. It isn't bad - just sensitive. Only aware of it in deep or high lateral-ish hip flexion (like wider tuck jump or full squat movements). It whimpers a little then. Pretty sure it's my tensor fasciae latae - that's a mouthful, but it's that little hard bulge of a muscle lateral to where the hip flexors originate. It inserts (interdigitates) into the IT band - more of an abductor, but assists (stabilizes) during flexion. Important little guy - not good to have it ticked at me. It doesn't really WANT to assist anything right now :( -- so. no leg work or Insanity :( :( for a few days. Bike sprints and elliptical and even stair climbing are fine, so I've been doing that. Finished Meso 3 upper body on Friday -- I'm thinking about spending some time with Slow and Heavy. I like to do some add ons from Amy's Slo Mo series with that, so I guess that will be my plan, along with some interval work on my bike and elliptical trainer. No Budokon, either. The floating movements and quite a few of the moves in Power and Agility wouldn't go over so well. So, gentler yoga and stretching -- and ice -- and Advil -- and apologies will have to do for a few more days.

I hope you all had a great New Year's and Christmas. I will try to be better about checking in consistently. Some things got on top of me there for awhile :confused:

Have a good day.

I am trying to clean the diet back up after the holidays. I did do a few lighter versions of snacks for the granddaughter's New Years Eve. But then yesterday was homemade lasagne, homemade bread, chocolate rum cake, and ice cream:eek: Today I had whole wheat toast with 1 egg post workout. Lunch was a BioChem Greens and Whey shake with almond butter Bleh!! Dinner will be baked chicken with a honey dijon sauce and asparagus.

Lori, it sounds like you have your workouts planned out so you can mend. I hate when I do something like that to myself. It really leaves me bummed.

Debbie, nice job on the supersets:D I like the stability ball addition.
