Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Friday Sept 8

lorajc

Cathlete
Morning Ladies -

My rotation called for Core Synegestics, but I overslept again and was running late....so I did P90 Masters Upper, Middle, Lower. It is only 40 minutes but similar to Core Synergestics without the weights (pushups only) and it has a bunch of different/innovative moves. Last time I did it I got sore. I think my body is getting used to Core Synergestics anyway. I used a med ball and ankle weights for the workout to increase intensity.

Well, I guess my body's getting a forced semi-rest this week cuz between today's short workout and tomorrow's forced short workout...it will be a bit of break for me. I have an early morning dental appt. tomorrow, so I'll only have time for 1/2 hour of aerobics and a stretch. I haven't had a total rest day since June 20. Just looked at my log cuz I feel guilty and my DH doesn't help matters cuz he's on a mission to lose weight and hasn't taken a rest day either. I was gonna take one tomorrow but he says he's not, so neither am I!!

Charlotte - The BPAL Trading Post Update went up and I don't know if I'm happy or sad. They're doing the Inquisition for Trick or Treat. They did a Naughty or Nice Inquisition at X-mas where you plead your case - Naughty or Nice and then you get one of the 3 oils and a corresponsing tee shirt. Here's the linkie to the info. Click on the Trick or Treat Inquisition to see the shirts and oil descriptions. Guess I shouldn't have bought all of that stuff the other day!! (PS - we talk to Tedwin on the Thread about the Trading Post BPTP under BPAL Chatter. We talk about other updates on the Updte Speculation Thread. Beth and Tedwin post quite often on those threads also.)

Have great workouts and I'll be back later.
 
Good morning, folks, and TGIF!

Today's workout will consist of desperately trying to find a belated 60th birthday present for a friend of mine and DH's who is a highly successful attorney who doesn't stint at all when he wants something for himself (so that means there's nothing out there that he wants that he doesn't already have) AND is King Monosyllable when you ask him for ideas for a belated 60th birthday present.

Wish me luck. This one'll push me to my anaerobic threshold.

Have a good workout day, peepol!

Good Morning Maniacs!!!

I is feeling better today. lol. Had weird dreams of going thru rooms to find my way home.

Today I have my strength training planned and some core work. I will post back later today if I have time. Got packages to mail out and groceries to get and laundry. Somebody please come looky at my house now...yard and everything is all nice!!!!

Lora,

I checked out the stuff. I love trick or treat shirts! It would be nice if Trick or Treat was together instead of separate, but sounds really nice. $50 plus oils? Not bad, but gosh, I got to be good now. Why you got to tell me these things? lol. It is all glittery too. Gosh.

Aquajock,

Good luck at finding that right gift! What a challenge you have for the day!!!!

Hello to all that follow. Bust some moves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Charlotte~~
 
Toasty - make sure you check your HighFashion email addy cuz I emailed you from work yesterday afternoon. I will answer your other emails tonight.....cuz that's where they are. I'm gonna ask my DH for one of the Inquisitions for my birthday in October....so we'll see. I ordered the Kindly Moon tee and didn't see the Black Moon one...so I'll have to get that when I get home. I love the tee's. They're very flattering baby doll tees and unique cuz you can't buy them in stores. Also - I want to tell you some other stuff about Ted and Beth, etc...so I'll try to email you from work here in a bit. Tedwin and I are both Libras!!
 
Today is my rest day and I'm delivering Avon. Getting ready to head out now. I am SO SORE from yesterdays workout, I'm sore everywhere today. Feels great! Glad I have a rest day!

Hi to all and hope you all have great workouts!
 
Mornin' Maniacs, Today is KenpoX. I'll do that later. My morning workouts have sucked this week. Every morning there is an interuption and I get no workout in. Oh, well. Life goes on. :)

Lora, sounds like you and hubby are competitive. LOL! That's what my hubby and I do. We challenge each other all the time. We're good at that 'Oh, so, you're taking a day off? Hmmfh.' look.

Aqua, I'm praying for you and your torturous workout today. You'll have to be in mega shape to pull this one off. LOL!

Toasty, Glad you're feeling better. And PLEASE someone go look at your house while it's all spotless and perfect. LOL!

Deb, Have a fun rest day and I'm so happy you are all sore. LOL!
 
Sunnyside - we are both very self critical, driven people and both make exercise a priority!!

Where the heck is everyone today?
 
Here I am Lora!

My WO was cardio and abs from SJP, and shoulder work. I can tell I am getting stronger here. (Not quite up there with some of you LOL)!
3 sets of 12
shoulder press- did 10#'s, but am ready for 12#s
side lateral raise- 8#'s- probably should have tried 10 for first set
front raise- 8#
rear delt raise- 10#'s- major increase here for me!
upright row- 10# - def need to go up to 12# here
rotator cuff raise thingys- 3-5#s and went to failure

Aquajock- hope you find those gifts! My dad is the worst to buy for.

Charlotte- hope someone stops by and falls in love with the house!

Lora- i really like those T-shirts! Especially the purple print!

Deb- enjoy your rest day. I get my Avon next Thursday, so I will let you know about that Halloween thing!

Dallys- are you watching AMC right now?? Lily is getting into trouble!

Great job today everyone!

Hi guys, well, Lora and Meg. :)
It's Friday and everyone must be partying without us. LOL!

Lora, It's great our husbands like to exercise too. It makes it easier to do.

Meg, AMC starts in 5 min. here. Lily is so innocent. I bet Johnathon saves her in the nick of time! I love Friday Soaps. I'm about exactly the same at weights as you. You're lifting looked just like what I'd lift.

Well, one Lara bar and a diet coke down, now back to work. TGIF!

Meg, I'm up to 12lb. on shoulders and biceps and stuff, but I'm hoping to get to 15's (maybe in a week or 2 or 3 ;)) soon. You know, I can lift 15lbs. but I can tell my shoulders aren't ready for it, at least not at 15 reps or more, which I'm doing. You have got to get some 12's!!!!

Oh, and isn't Colby the biggest brat you've ever seen? LOL!

Meg,

Love your pictures. Your boys are so cute! You better watch them when they get to be in their teens!!lol. Did you add anymore of yourself, maniac?

No workout for me today. No way..no how. I am just not feeling it AT ALL. I felt better this morning, but I don't plan on hurting myself with the weights trying to be superwoman when I feel superdrained! lol. The rest will help me to do 100% tomorrow.

Got done grocery shopping and got a new tube of lipstick in wine. Also a Poison shirt which is really cool...it looks all bleached out in areas and is brown with a skull and roses. Gonna wear it to the Deftones concert.

Sunny,

12lb's for shoulders is really good! Soon you will be using the 15's! Keep up the good work!!!

Good afternoon
Today I am splitting my workout. This morning I did a circuit doing treadmill and the strength work from Amy's Step & Pump. I ran 3.25 miles. Later I will do a little more cardio and Back & Biceps and stretching. I went for a motorcycle ride and lunch with dh.

Meahghan, good luck getting your horses ready for show.

Charlotte, I hope someone comes to look at your house.

I am off to pick up my grandchildren so will check back later.

Charlotte - Good call on the rest day. You will be great tomorrow and we can both do our full body workouts together!! I'm so looking forward to mine, it starts my 7th week.

Megadoo - Excellent workout! Its hard to go heavy with shoulders. This has been my major challenge. I think the chins have helped me there.
 
Debbie,

I know I am getting behind. It has been one thing or another, but my muscles won't grow tiny arms and legs and run off now will they? I think they will still be here tomorrow. lol.

We just had a couple come look at our home today!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!! When we got back, thinking they were gone, they were still looking!!!!

I can't wait to hear from my realtor. Wish she would call.

Charlotte~~
 
I'm sooo mad right now. I was on my way to team pracitce like normal and when I got there, there was like 1 car there. I went up to the door and there was a sing that said "NO GIRLS TEAM PRACTICE" Now I'm pissed. They didn't even call or nuttin. They just expect us to drive all the way out there read the sign and go off on our merry way ha. Well in the real world that ain't how it works. We live in the 20th century don't we? WE HAVE STUPID PHONES!!!! Call us and tell. Geeeeez I swear some ppl in the work world like that are getting really stupid. Sorry, I just had to vent.

I've never accually taken a FULL day off of absolutley NO WORKOUT but will go walk around the mall w/ mom and do some abs later. i really like the abs from C&W and maybe some other abs on my own.

Charlotte- Don't worry girl, your muscles will be right there tomorrow;-) I bet they'll be happy you rested them and will pumped and ready to go tomorrow;-) Take care!

TGIF!!!
Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you cry with your girlfriends.

Deb-- thanks! I am amazed with my shoulders since they were and always have been my weekest. When I first starting exercising, I could not press 2lb dumbells, at all! I thought I would never be able to!! That I am really proud of, and by dang it, they actually look kinda good!

Charlotte- YAY!! I sure hope the realtor calls--let us know! If they don't take the house, don't get bummed, because someone will!!
Hope you have a killer WO tomorrow!
I have biceps (whoohoo) and HIIT cardio!

Adri-sorry you had a crappy evening. It doesn't hurt to rest! Walking around a mall can count as something too! You don't want to burn out, or injure yourself so young. Take it easy!
