Hardcore Fitness Maniacs Check In for FRIDAY 2/10

Cathlete
Yay!!! It's Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!

This morning my rotation called for Jiggle Free arms ...which is only a 35 minute upper body and aerobic circuit DVD, so I did that and then I did a giant set of upper body weight work followed by 25 minutes of my Push Aerobics DVD while listening to the Chili Peppers and then I did allk of the ab work from my Push DVD and the stretch from the same DVD. It made for a pretty good workout.

It takes me forever to get online.....my computer is only connecting after about 6 tries....it's so frustrating. I have someone coming to look at it today. I just hope it's functioning this weekend, as I have some stuff up on E-bay that the auctions are ending on over the weekend and I need to take care of business!! There's also a huge perfume update coming from the place I buy my oils on Monday and I'm excited....I just hope I have a computer by then.

Nicole - I like working out with Bob :7 . I'll be interested to hear what you think about that DVD! You have to do the whole thing though!! You're a fitness maniac ...remember? Also, I know what you mean about a love/hate relationship with your bike.....as I feel the same way about my elipitical, bike and treadmill. I know I need to cross train, but I really enjoy myself more on the rebounder or following a DVD.
 
Good Morning All!

I'm getting ready to hop on the treadmill. I hope to get in another 5 miles. So far so good with the foot. I hear you Marietta...take it slow. ;-) I have to rush off afterwards to the shower and dd school. I'll try and check back this afternoon.

Lora ~ Glad you're taking care of your computer. Did you see my question yesterday to you?

Ok, gotta run...literally! :)

Dallas
 
Good morning,
Lora, I was wondering which Turbo Jam workouts you have and would recommend. I think they look like they might be good and would like to order one.

I am off to do Core Synergistics and I think I am going to do a circuit workout with this and maybe some treadmill runnin:)

Hi to everyone

Terri
 
Diane Sue...love your new photo! You look absolutely fantastic! :D
 
Morning ladies,

Thought I would pop in and say "hi"

My oldest is still at home sick and my youngest is still coughing. DH is also home with it now. Does anyone want a roommate??? LOL!!

I hope everyone has a good day. I will try to check back later!
 
Good Morning!

It's Friday and I'm off work today, but I wanted to go ahead and check in.

This morning I did a 5.5-mile run on my treadmill. I am supposed to PUB today, but I'm feeling some soreness so I may not do that. I may just do biceps and triceps.

I've got a really busy weekend ahead of me. I've got lot of running around to do today. Tonight we will be at church working with the youth. Tomorrow in the morning I have class, then I meet the girls at the church for practice and then we dance for a women's shelter on that afternoon. We will also help watch the children for the women while they spend the afternoon being pampered. It's a very special afternoon for them. I've also got to find some time to pay bills and to make valentine cards....

Nicole - Keep on having fun with your bike....it's all good!!

Lora - Good luck on getting you PC working right. They are great to have, but a pain when they don't work right.

Terri - Tell me more about this movie...don't think I've heard of it. Must be pretty good, if you've seen it twice. Glad you finally got some snow...at this point I'm spoiled by the mild winter we are having and I really don't want any snow! I think I told you I'm going today's workout tomorrow and tomorrow's workout today from the rotation...right?

Diane Sue - Your picture does look awesome! You work hard and it shows!

Dallas - Got any party's planned for the weekend...you gotta have someplace to be...I know you do!

Lisa - Have a great day...hope you can work in some cardio. Hey, heard anything yet? You're probably tired of being asked...

Sabrina - So what did you get at McDonalds? Have fun at work this weekend...and I hope you get that sale you're looking for...it will happen...hang in there.

Don't know if I'll be back today or not...I'll try to check in tomorrow.

Happy Friday!!

Hi guys!

We had another good night. I hope this continues. I'm feeling pretty good today (thank God for pain meds, huh?;-)

I weighed myself today. I'm already back down to 97 pounds. I was thinking of even trying to do some exercises this weekend when my husband gets home (so he can pick the weights up for me). Maybe to some shoulders and leg extensions.

My parents are here again for the weekend. They are going to see Phantom of the Opera tomorrow night. My sister got them tickets as a Christmas gift.

Nicole, I completely know where you're coming from when you say you have a love/hate relationship with your bike. I do with my elliptical stepper. It's so dang hard, even at level one.

Dallas, I'm glad your foot is feeling better. When do you leave for your vacation?

Marietta, I meant to ask you yesterday about your dance routine for the women you are putting on. You'll have to let us know how it went on Monday (since you may not be back here until then).

Terri, I'd love to know a good movie. We've received some duds from Netflix lately.

Hi Sabrina, Diane Sue and Lisa!:D

I'm off now to take the baby to be weighed at his doctor.

Susan C.M.

Hey Ladies, I am done with mic and legs and glutes and it feels good. Now I have to do payroll and then I think my day is sort of free until the employees check in.

Marietta-Yes I saw you were switching the workouts. Tomorrow I am going to do an hour run after pub instead of 30 minutes. The movie is about 2 cowboys and how they meet and fall for each other. It starts in the 60's and goes from there. The scenery is beautiful land soon you forget these tow are gay and it becomes a poignant love story. It tells how they go there different ways but wind up through out the years together. It will make you laugh and cry and keep you thinking for days. You have to see it as I cannot do it justice:)

Sabrina-You can come stay with me for awhile :)
Diane Sue -is that one of the new bikinis you bought? You look so pretty and happy I figured you were thinking of DH :)

Ok I will be back.

Terri

ETA Hi Susan! Glad you are feeling better. Another movie that I liked as is available to rent is House Of D. Very good and moving story!
 
Lora ~ I asked yesterday that when you went vegetarian did your cholesterol go down? I think you said you also have high cholesterol?

Sabrina ~ Oh no, now you have three boys sick! I think the dh's can be worse than the kids sometimes. ha ha! You can be our guest! We have a super-duper quiet guest room. ;-)

Terri ~ I'd like to see that movie. I don't think dh would go for it though. Another good workout in for you.

Susan ~ We don't leave until March 29. I have to kick it into gear...you know - shorts, bathing suits. I never feel like I'm ready for that. Glad you got some sleep last night again. How much does the cutie pie weigh now?

Nicole ~ We're more chicken, pork, and fish eaters here. Meat actually grosses me out. It always has. You're post just struck me funny yesterday.:7

Marietta ~ Tonight, I'm playing bunko with the neighbors. My sil and I are taking my mil, great-yiayia and the girls (dd and 2 nieces) to see Wicked tomorrow. I can't wait! Sunday we're free finally! Next weekend too!!!! NO PARTIES!!! Can you tell I'm happy? You're day/weekend sounds really fun. When will you do Debbie's rotation? I'd start that one with you depending on when.

Diane Sue ~ I noticed your picture too. You look so young! (I mean you are young, but you know what I mean, right?) You have to spill all your beauty secrets!:7 Love your suit! I probably should start looking for one.

Lisa ~ No news yet??

Alrighty, I better get some work done around here since I've been gone. Sabrina, did you see Keith Urban sing at the Grammy Awards? We Tivo'd it and I've been watching it in stages while I run on the treadmill. U2 rocks!!!!:7

Have a great weekend everyone!

Dallas
 
Hey I ended up goning 45 min. on my airdyne. My friend from Wis. called so I rode while I talked to her. I figured out why my hr was done the other day..... Someone (one of my kids:7) messed with my seat and made it higher. Once I lowered the seat...... It was HARD again.:D

FYI When I do my TLT's I use sliders (ya know those furniture movers)in place of the paper plate or rags.

Dallas we eat LOTs of fish in the summer, but I do have to say....... I really enjoy meat!! I guess I am a true carnivore}(

Susan now don't overdue it!!! Congrats on getting back to your pre-prego wt:D

~Nicole
 
Hey Ladies,

Ii am getting ready to do some errands. I wanted to say I am with Dallas on the I hate meat thing. I do eat chicken and fish but NO red meat. It really grosses me out!

Nicole you are to funny with your bike :) I think it is your new exercise addiction. DOn't even try and get me to buy one:) My budget can't handle my obsessions as it is. Ok it can but I have to draw the line somwhere! Good for you on doing more cardio!

Terri
 
Hello again,
I got in P90X Core synergistics, Body Max cardio circuit portion,CTX Power circuit cardio and lower circuits and planks and abs, then I did 1.75 miles on the treadmill. My grandson was sick today so I had more time on my hands this morning.

Susan, let us know how much the little guy weighs now. I can't blame you for wanting to get back to exercising. I am the same way.

Marietta, Dallas, and Terri thanks. Yes this is one of the suits I ordered. I got it from Victoria Secret for 20 dollars. I sent that pick to DH so he could see what it looked like. I guess you would say it is my almost 3 weeks into P90X and the nutrition plan

Sabrina, we are experiencing a bunch of illness here too. I hope I dont catch any of it before vacation. My grandson is running a 103 temp and my daughter has laryngitis.

Diane Sue

So Dallas and Terri I GUESS you won't be coming over for STEAK??:7

Terri I don't know about my bike being my new addiction, but it sure is easy way to get my cardio done and out of the way with. My new addiction is these TLT's I don't know what it is about them, but I am really enjoying them?? The more I do them the more I like them?? What is the deal with that???

Well gotta go eat supper!!

Take care and hope you all have a GOOD WEEKEND!!

Sabrina and Diane Sue Hope everyone gets well soon!!

~NIcole
 
I have a little more news on the job. I have two final interviews next week! Those will be the most crucial, as they are with my potential new boss and his boss. So far so good...but I'm not going to get ahead of myself.

Not so sure the cardio is going to happen...brought some work home that I should take care of instead.


lisa
 
Dallas - No...my cholesterol has been high and no food changes help. I became a vegetarian back about 20 years ago....so I don't think I had high cholesterol then. I don't eat any fried foods, rarely eat fats that are bad for you and hardly ever eat eggs....and of course no meat and still it's high.
