Where is everyone?!

Wow are my legs sore today! Especially my glutes and calves! Those roll-ins with the hip tucks in Butts & Guts are a killer, I knew I'd feel those today.

Today was shoulders, abs and cardio. 2 minute rest between each sets, high reps again:

Shoulders:
Barbell Press: 40# - 3 sets/15 reps
Wide Grip Upright Rows: 40# - 3 sets/15 reps
Lateral Raise: 12's - 2 sets/20 reps
Bent Over Lateral Raise: 12's - 2 sets/20 reps

Abs:
From Kick, Punch & Crunch. Used 15# for Woodchops. Those burned!

Then I did Cardio Coach #1, great quick workout. It was 39 minutes (with stretch from KP&C), was in my zone for 28 minutes and burned 200 calories. I travelled 2 miles.

Hope you all have great workouts!
 
I'm here........I was trying to figure out something on the computer. Does anyone know if you can make an ART file in the computer a GIF or JPG file? or once an ART file, always an ART file? I'm trying to learn something here.

I did Speedbody Full Body followed by Abs/Core and a 30 minute power walk on the treadmill. Workout was 1 hour 35 minutes and I burned 495 calories. I also did MTV Yoga 50".

Deb - thanks for the leg advice yesterday. If you think Cathe's roll-ins make your glutes sore, you should try Fluidity! It makes you real sore in the hamstrings and especially right where the glutes meet the hamstrings. I'm still sore from Monday! and even the yoga didn't ease the tightness! Yoy!! I'm going to try to force myself to take a rest day this week also.....as maybe I need the recovery. I never know if I'm working out too hard or not hard enough. I have difficulty finding balance and I think I may be going overboard......but then everyone here is so inspiring and I have the time to workout, so I keep working out harder!! LOL.

Jen - thanks for the prayers for Pandora. I'm calling the vet later.

I have a hair cut scheduled this morning. I'll be back later.

Have great workouts.
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

Can't remember what I am doing today. Don't have my rotation in front of me. Think circuit challenge, not sure. I got to clean and pack AGAIN!

Debbie,

Really like the way you are mixing up your workouts! You are burning the cals!!!! Great job!

Anne,

No babies. More likely the old man across the street would get pregnant before me. Doc said he fixed me real good..no chance! lol.

Lora,

Still thinking about your Pandora. Hope there are some improvements.

Jen Jen,

Your wild..just had to say it! So much fun to have you here. Love reading your post even if I don't have time to post much lately.

Charlotte~~

Today was sort of an easy workout because my legs are still sore form B&G Overall leg premix. I did LIC cardio timesaver. Also hurt my neck cant move it up and down:(

Randi
 
Randi,

Sorry about your neck. I am always having problems with mine so I know how it feels. I hope it gets better soon for you.

Charlotte~~
 
Morning Maniacs! Sounds like alot of us are sore today. My hamstrings are sore from yesterdays workout. Today is cardio. I'll have to do that later, kinda slept in this morning. It rained all night and I had the windows open and the sound and smell kept me in bed.:)

Anne-I'm still laughing about your "hand-waver customer". What a riot! I don't know how you maintained your composure and cut his hair feminine. ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lora- Let us know what the vet says about Pandora.

Char-What all this about babies? LOL! I have nightmares about that sometimes! I have friends who got preggo in their 40's!

Deb-Great workout!

Randi-great workout!

Good morning maniacal women!

This morning I did upper body. I haven't been lifting as heavy. Been doing less weight, more reps. I haven't done that for a loooong time. Kinda wanting to lean out. Interested in losing 10 pounds by June. :) I know, I know, silly to go by the scale, but...

I asked my co-worker/VERY honest friend who sits right outside my office if she thought I yelled yesterday and she said no. She said my boss and I both raised our voices and you could tell we were both irritated at each other but she would by no means call it yelling. Whew! That made me feel better. I really don't consider myself a yeller. Another co-worker who considers herself...well, nevermind...said, "I'm just not a yeller so I wouldn't have done that." Well, there are A WHOLE LOT of things she does in her life that I would NEVER EVER EVER do, but I certainly would not say these things to her. Anyway, I feel a bit better. I am glad that I stood up to him though. DH says I should do that more often. Things are good today. We're speaking. :)

Lora - I hope Pandora is better. I hope the vet can help you/her.

All this talk about babies. I have so many friends who are trying to get pregnant. They told me I'm the one who will probably get pregnant since I gave up a long time ago. Ha! I better not (I'll bd 45 in August). I have resigned myself to the fact that it is not in my life plan. I couldn't imagine it at this stage in my life!

No talk about babies from me! God help me!

Lora - I'll have to check out those Fluidity workouts. Sounds intersting. Hey, what happened on GH yesterday? Anything good? My tape messed up.

Hi everyone!
 
Well - just got back from the vet with Pandora. Would you believe my vet is running for President of the United States!!! YOY!! He's running as an independent. The local news team was there shooting regarding the recent kidney outbreak and the food thing........and I'm not sure if I'm going to be on or not, as he was explaining our cat's case of kidney failure to the camera man. Pandora was dehydrated again and got fluids. He said that if she improves again and then starts to deteriorate in a few days like she did this time, we will have to have her put to sleep. I feel so bad. I hope she gets better. Since the Azodyl she's taking for the kidney's is so new and is basically "experimentaL", we're not sure how long it will take to work and my theory for flushing her out again was that maybe the pills are helping, but not to the extent they could be once they are in her system for a couple of weeks. He agreed with my theory......thus the reason for the visit. Let's hope she makes it. I don't even want to think about having her put down.

Deb - Let's see - Sam said she'd take the package for Angela Munroe and proceeded to lie her butt off to Jason about the situation. Jason is getting drilled by Lulu about the pregnancy situation. Carly seduced Jax and then said it was "over" and now he consider them "even"....cuz he slept with her. I think that was the basic storyline. Oh, and Mr. Craig continues to taunt Nicolas and Emily, Elizabeth and Luckie all came to visit and Nicolas had to act like he was being a self centered pig and picked a fight with Elizabeth and said he made her think he was feeling pressured into marrying her. Mr. Craig wants to be business partners with Nicolas and is threatening if he fails to cooperate, he'll kill Emily and Elizabeth. That's all I can remember
 
I have a moment to pop in. My computer is broken, but is being fixed. I am on my mom's right now. I have some serious stuff going on right now in my life, but I miss ALL of you alot. I am keeping up with my WO's the best I can. A little DOMsy today.
I hope to be back on line soon. I miss talking to you guys alot, so don't forget me!!!

Lora- I got that package today! It really brightened my day. You are so sweet! And I LOVE Buckcherry. I am going to the next concert with you! THank you so much. I love Snake Oil.

Char- I will email you with an update as soon as I can. Miss talking to you.

Everyone else-- keep up your hard work. I miss you guys. Keep me in your prayers please!

Meg - Glad it cheered you up. I was just reading a thread dogging out Nickelback!! Can you believe it?? Do you like The Chili Peppers and if so, do you have Blood Sugar Sex Magik and Stadium Arcadium? (2 of their best IMO). Let me know what else you end up liking from the oils. So you listened to the BC? Sorry things are not going so well in your life. I hate when that happens. Take care of yourself. Hope things get back to normal soon.
 
It has been a busy day. I was making arrangements for the dogs and grandchildren so we can leave town tomorrow night. Going to visit my Dad. I have been cleaning and putting things in the trailer. We have not taken it out in awhile. This morning I did I Max 3 no stretch, then BodyMax2 step combos, followed by the abs 2 times and the stretch, I then did Yoga Shatki supine poses and inversions. I got my Amy Bento KBX today. I will probably do that one tomorrow.

Debbie, I imagine your glutes and calves are sore after what you did:) Tomorrow is lower body for me, I will be gone for the shoulder work. May have to try and do something while gone. I was not wild about working traps anyway.

Maeghan, I hope whatever is happening in your life improves soon. We miss you here.

Suz, probably when you least expect it you will find yourself pregnant:p Hope not huh.. I am sure you are pretty settled the way you are. Glad it didn't sound like you were yelling:)

Lora, I hope Pandora just improves and stays that way.

Charlotte, are you almost all packed:)

I will try and check in tomorrow. Lots to get done and the grandchildren will be here.

Hi ladies! No WO for me tonight...beginning of my vacation!!! :) :)
Just staying home and trying to get caught up on things. Send all those baby wishes my way. (Maybe I should print this thread out and roll all over the paper-LOL!!!) My DH had vasectomy reversal in August of last year and we are trying. Dr. said it takes about a year to a year and a half to kick in if it works at all. I am 36 and DH is quite a bit older than me, so we are really pushing it. We decided this was all we will do...because I am crazy enough without adding additional hormones, etc. to the mix!!!! Trying to take it as it comes...if it's meant to be it will happen and all that. Between all this information and on the Yoga thread I have become the one woman Oprah show today....I think I'll just go have a good cry now..Christine's (Andtckrtoo) post on the OD board almost put me over the edge today anyway...such a sad story, but also a lovely heartwarming outpouring of support...as always is the case with the fellow Catheites!:)

Suz-If you don't mind me asking, how did you finally make peace with it possibly not happening for you?

Meg-How on earth could we possibly forget about you?!? Crazy girl! I hope things get sorted out for you. Everyone worries so when you are not around! Thanks for popping in while you can!

Char-You and Bionics are the wild ones! :) I am just enjoying being along for the ride! :)

Meg/Lora-I am with you guys on Nickelback :) ...I like 'em too.

Jen
 
Diane Sue-Great WO! Have a nice visit with your dad! Are you looking forward to it? Do you continue to do your workouts away from home? How will the grandkids survive without you while you're gone?!?

Anne-Rhythmic step and Cardio coach!! How many minutes of cardio is all that?

Deb-Congrats on the DOMS-you are workin' it, girl!

Randi-Neck aches are awful! How did you hurt it-with WO or did you sleep on it wrong?

Dallys-Count me in on the soreness, too. Took a couple of months off of step and did step the other night...my calves are killing me for the second day in a row. I think I learned a lesson and will try to keep step in at least once a week!

OK Hardcores...no t-shirts for this thread. I couldn't think of anything that would be appropriate to put on a tee shirt having to do with Hardcore and being sore...sounded too much like something that belongs on another type of site...LOL! ;)

Jen
 
Diane Sue - I hope you have a wonderful visit with your Dad! And yes, we're pretty settled with our lives the way they turned out now. :)

Meg - I'm sorry things have not been going well. I hope that things improve for you. We could never ever forget about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm praying for you.

Jen - I guess after so many years of trying I prayed that if I wasn't going to get pregnant that God would change my heart because I always, always wanted kids from the time I was little. I planned to get married and have a family for as long as I can remember. I didn't get married until I was 30 (I met and was engaged to the TOTALLY WRONG guy before I met DH) and we started trying right away. We talked about adoption eventually, but by the time we talked about it I was getting older and was starting to accept the fact that maybe kids weren't going to be a part of my life and I wasn't sure I wanted to start life with a baby at my age. I called a couple of local adoption agencies and never got called back and I took that as a sign. The second time I called was just about a year ago (oddly enough b/c really I have been fine with not having kids for a long time) and I even told them I would be interested in an older child but they never returned my message. My DH was never really completely into the idea of adoption, although he would have done it for me. I think we both would have needed to be very, very willing though. I hope that answers your question. I guess the short answer is just lots of prayer. And if I would have had kids who on earth would have taken in all these animals? :)
