- Start date
Morning ladies!
No workout yet since the boys are already up. Early birds!! lol
I am off to Peoria today to get a couple books on Walt Disney World. I want to go for Christmas (of course it has to be the most expensive time to go-LOL). Might change my mind about when but I want to go when all the lights and c-mas decorations are up. I have always wanted to go then (I have never been). I guess I should say the boys want to go too. LOL!!! Have any of you ladies ever been??
Lora-I hope you get to check in at work. I hope you doctors appointment goes well too. Let us know!
How is everyone else today??
Have a great day!

Good Morning Ladies!!
Sabrina,
Have fun with your day! Last time I was at Disney World, I was 5. LOL! Went to Busch Gardens in Tampa a few years ago instead. Like the one in Williamsburg much better though.
Lora,
You just reminded me to set up a appt with my gynecologist. Think it has been 2 years since I last went. I hope your doctor's visit is a good one.
Where are all the other maniacs at?????
Yesterday I did 3 sets of the BBM using weights....20# db for lunges, 25# for duck squats, 15# for leg presses, 40# for hamstring curls and 70# for deadlifts, etc. I also worked out to the slow and heavy series of tri's/bi's. All took about 2 hours 45 mins. DH worked out with me to doing his own thing. Motivated son and he came in to to join us so I went outside since I was already too hot inside and there would be more room. LOL! A fun day it was! DD worked out on Saturday to slow and heavy series of chest/back with friend. Today my children and friend may also go bike riding into town again, but I have to remember IMAX is tomorrow so I know I will have some mighty toasy legs! LOL!

Good Morning All!
Lora ~ How do you like that work out? I just won a Power 90 work out on ebay. Shhh, don't tell dh. ha ha!
Sabrina ~ Yes, we're going at the end of this month to Disney World!! I can't wait, but have so much to do to get ready. Yes, it's waayyyy too expensive. I think no matter when you go, unfortunately. They do change the rates based on the time of year.
Charlotte ~ How far are you riding today? Where do you live again? We have snow again. :-( I know I said it before, but I'm ready to get out and about again with the kids!
This weekend I did pilates (more than mat) and Sunday - Power Yoga w/Bryan Kest. Today the kids have off again, so I slept longer!
I plan on doing the treadmill, leg work and abs. Not sure exactly what, but I'll post later.
Hi Susan, Terri, Marietta, Nicole, & Diane Sue (did you leave already?)!
Have great workouts!

Dallas,
You know, I have never tried yoga. Well I should have checked the weather first as it may rain. Want to ride 14 miles into town again like before. We are in Luray, VA. I really need to clean up the yard too. Everytime the plow trucks come thru they dump a bunch of gravel along the side of our yard. It is a real mess out there, and I can't stand it! Will be a nice workout though cleaning it up.

Hello!!
Hope you guys had a great weekend...
This morning I did the High Step Challenge...don't know why, that's just what I felt like doing.
I'll run and do some back work during lunch.
Had a very busy weekend....got all done that I needed to, but no down time at all. Another busy week ahead.
Charlotte - You worked out 2.5 hours! That sounds painful....did I read that you are doing an IMAX tomorrow? What gives??
Lora - Hope your appointment goes well.
Sabrina - Have a great day...can't help you with Disney...Haven't been in ages!!
Nicole - I hope I can get a set of BBM today. I did do HSC and that should certainly count for some glute work. We'll see...
Terri - so what do you think about the rotation? I just didn't feel it this morning. My preference is to do cardio in the morning and weights after that. I'll see what I can come up with.
I'll check back in later...

Hi Everyone!
Marietta ~ Where do you get all your energy?!? I like doing cardio first too. I feel good and warmed up then.
Terri ~ How's your dad? How many more weeks for Ashley?
Charlotte ~ Is it warm in VA? Does it get as cold as the midwest? Have fun on your bike ride!
Nicole ~ Sorry, I'm not joining you right now on the rotation. I felt w/my foot and vacation I want to keep up w/what's working. Not that the TLTs won't work....I'll give that rotation a go when I get back. What time did you start this AM?! That was some workout!
I ended up doing 30 minutes on the treadmill. No running yet...I'm too afraid. Maybe I'm "babying" it now? I then did GSL floorwork and then added my version of BBM (3 sets). My dd was **trying** to do them too. I was planning on doing the elliptical later, so I'll do abs then.
Got to go play Chutes and Ladders w/my little guy.

Dallas,
O.k., it is snowing now. What happen to the rain? Did you do something to bring this on???? LOL! No bike riding today, but it sure is beautiful seeing it come down. Got all my candles lit and a roast in the crock pot! It was in the 50's here most of January and alittle cooler in February. March is crazy here with warm weather and cold on another. It starts to warm up in April.
Marietta,
Yes, doing Imax tomorrow. What gives? My new attitude! LOL!

Hey Shannon...
That indeed is a Hardcore Maniac day!!
Seriously...."Hardcore Maniacs" is just a name we came up it really has nothing to do with the workouts we do...although sometimes that describes our workouts perfectly. Our main purpose for this checkin is friendship and also workout accountability (if that's what you're looking for). Heck, you don't even have to workout if you don't want and can still check in here. Hopefully...we'll motivate someone enough that they will want to workout.

Hey Dallas sorry you won't be joining me, but I think you are right to stick with what you are doing I really did not pay attention to the clock today. I just did one workout after the other!!
I did get a 7.5 miles in on my bike this afternoon.
Maritta I did get my set in this am. I just did'nt feel like doing it , but I did:7 Hope you get a set in today, but if you don't you are right HSC does work those glutes!
Hey Shannon your workout yesterday was totally HARDCORE:7 Drop in anytime!! We would love to get to know you!!

Hey Girlies!!
I went for a 4.5+ mile run at lunch today. The guys cut it short and I kept going because 1)it felt really good outside and 2)I felt pretty good and if I would have went them it would have only been 3 miles. Hardly worth the it, for all the trouble I go through just to run during my lunch (shower, hair, ect.). I planned to do some back work, but did shoulders instead.
Dallas - I think you are right to not do anything that you don't feel ready for. Yeah, you are being cautious, but better safe then sorry. When the time is right...you'll know it. I don't know where the energy comes from....it's there so I use it. My motto...
Life is not a journey to the grame with intention of arriving safely in a pretty well and preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming..."WOW!! What A Ride!"
Nicole - I didn't get my BBM set in. I put the process of elimination into effect and based on that...BBM got tossed. Maybe tomorrow. Good job on the bike ride! I intended to get to the bike shop over the weekend to get my trainer thingy...that didn't happen. Maybe this weekend...although I doubt it because my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary party is this weekend.
Terri - Are you feeling better...reading the weekend threads gave me the impression that you are a little overwhelmed. Hang in there my friend.
Hey...I'll be lurking around. May be back...

Thanks for your support.
Dallas-Ashley finishes treatments the end of this week.
Nicole-Way to go again! Your rotation sounds great.
I will bet Diane Sue is basking in the sun today!

Hi Again!
I went shopping for the kids. Now they have to try everything on and then I'll be back at the store probably tomorrow. lol I went and did the elliptical first. I did 45 minutes of hills. I then did abs.
Lora ~ I saw your picture today in the Collage catalog. Somehow I pictured you brunette. You're very pretty!
Charlotte ~ Honest, I didn't send you snow! lol Is is still snowing? I guess you didn't get that bike ride in?
Marietta ~ Hey, I like that motto! My sister has said that one before, but she said something about sliding in w/a martini in hand. :+ I go to the foot doc tomorrow. I can't wait to see what she says.
Nicole ~ You can give me pointers on the rotation!;-)
Shannon ~ WOW! That was some workout. I miss working out like that! Stop by anytime!
Terri ~ I'm glad things are getting better over there. You are a strong lady!
OK, got to go!
