Debbie, nice job on putting together your own workout.

Roselyn, I contemplated that workout this morning when deciding what I would do.
 
I was able to get on my treadmill when I got home from work and walked 2 miles. I wanted to get my 10,000 steps in today. I sat a lot at work so I wanted to get moving. I got my 10,000 steps in!!!!

Diane Sue - Nice job with your workout as well!!! :)
 
This morning I did a Cardio Coach mix from Candace. Had a great workout. Sweated like crazy.

Workout was 46 minutes, ran 2.8 miles and burned about 388 calories.

Have a great day and workout everyone!!!!
 
This morning I did Intensity, 57 minutes, 465 calories, I finished off with P90X3 yoga, 30 minutes. Workout time was 87 minutes and calories burned 535.

Debbie, good job getting the 10,000 steps in.
 
Today I did an upper body workout on my own. I did Back, Shoulders and Abs. Had an ok workout, not my favorite body parts to work.

This is what I did:

Barbell Row: 50# - 3 sets/10 reps
Pullovers: 30# - 3 sets/10 reps
Bent Over Delt Flyes: 12's - 3 sets/12 reps

Barbell Overhead Press: 35# - 3 sets/10 reps
Upright Rows: 25# - 1 set/12 reps; 30# - 2 sets/12 reps
Lateral Raise: 8's - 3 sets/14 reps
Scarecrows: 5's - 3 sets/10 reps

Then I did the bonus Abs #1 from Ripped HiiT. I like that ab workout with the 8# weight, it's fun.

Have a great workout everyone!!!
 
This morning I did Ripped with Hiit Low Impact Hiit 2 29 minutes and X10 Low Impact, 26 minutes. Total time was 55 minutes and calories burned, 341, I had to modify the upright rows and overhead presses with the gliding discs. I just did the side lunges holding the weights down to my side. With the overhead presses moves with the discs I did mountain climbers . Not as big a calorie burn but my neck and delt spasms are still there but better.
I checked out The Frugal Paleo Cookbook to try some recipes before I purchase. Yesterday I made the crab cake frittata and today deconstructed spaghetti squash carbonara topped with two poached eggs. Both were really good.. My daughter brought some eggs from her chickens this morning. I love fresh eggs and hers roam around outside their coop.

Fresh eggs, lucky you!
 
Karen, my daughter has ordered bees too so that means local fresh honey. That makes me happy. I get tired of buying raw honey and it turning to sugar shortly after I purchase.
 
Today I did a Leg workout on my own and I had a great one! My legs were really feeling it. Then I got on my treadmill and did a fast paced incline walk for a mile.

This is what I did with my leg workout:

Squats - 60# - 3 sets/10 reps
Leg Press Station - 145# - 3 sets/10 reps
Calf Raises - 145# - 2 sets/20 reps
Elevated Deadlifts - 55# - 3 sets/12 reps

Hope you all have a great workout today! Happy Friday!!!
 
This morning I did Les Mills Combat Power Kata, 44 minutes, 325 calories, P90X3 Eccentric lower body, 32 calories, 89 calories, and finished with Les Mills Flow, 20 minutes, 57 calories. Total time was 96 minutes and calories burned 471.
 
Today I did X Train All Out Low Impact Hiit, with Core 1, 50 minutes, 332 calories, followed by Yoga Relax, 52 minutes. 400 calories burned.
 
Today I did Plyo Hiit One and Xtrain chest, shoulders and back, off work for the holiday so I had more time. Also getting a pretty decent snow today, it figures, i wanted to go out and shop and do something fun now maybe i will tackle some things here like my tupperware cabint...maybe:)
 
Today I did Run Fit and had a great workout. That one is my all time favorite workout, I think - including all of Sean's workouts. I just love this one by Candace. I really wish she would have made more.

52 minutes total, ran 3.25 miles and burned 439 calories.

I'm down one more pound - total of 9 lost since Jan. 1st. I have one more pound to go to reach my goal!! I've been trying to get rid of these 10# for three years now. They are almost finally gone! Woo hoo!!!! :)
 
Today I did Cathe's Ride, 57 minutes, 13 miles, 443 calories. I swear my heartrate monitor hates me. I then did Urban Rebounding Core Bound 36 minutes, 70 calories. I like that one because it is basically yoga with balances using the rebounder. Something a bit different. Total time 93 minutes and calories burned 513. I think I may have a pinched nerve in my neck or left delt. So, I am working on some moves for that as well. Icing helps. I need to learn to sleep on my back. I wake up in pain when I sleep on my side. This really alters my workouts.

Debbie, nice job on the weight loss :D
 
Today should have been weights but my upper back is feeling weird so I just got on my treadmill and did a fast paced inclined walk. I was on my treadfmill for 50 minutes, walked 2.5 miles and burned 325 calories. I figured I went 6014 steps.

Now tell me, how is it yesterday my workout was mostly running, it was 52 minutes, I ran for 3.25 miles and only went 6340 steps? I don't get it. The only thing I could possibly figure is my battery was dead this morning so maybe it wasn't counting right, but I doubt it.

Oh well....
 
Today I did X Train Legs all Sections mix, 67 minutes, 300 calories. I finished with Tai Cheng all 3 phases Tai Chi skipping the neural reboot, 35 minutes, 76 calories.

Debbie, I think these devices all have some problems. They work correctly part of the time. I had my grandchildren compete with pedometers once to see who could get the most steps. It was fun and had them active till my grandson figured out that he could sit and watch television and shake the pedometer. I have that happen all of the time with my heart rate monitors. One day I get a great calorie burn and another I have similar stats on the heart rate zones and I get a terrible calorie burn. I have read so many suggestions, including on how the heartrate device is sitting. Some people need it a bit more right or left. I am learning to just take what I get but when I put it in the workout manager here I sometimes just want to throw my hands up and forget it. But, I can't. Takes away my focus and wanting to try harder. The thing is today my burn was way off from the workout manager. As usual I added extra reps, went a bit heavier. It was still low. I have 4 Polar Heart rate monitors here. One needs a battery replaced. It is one I have to send out. I have several straps too. I have tried switching up the straps with the watches. Some are coded and some are not. The one I felt was most accurate is the one that I need to have the battery replaced in. It worked best with the hard one piece strap that was not coded. You can sort of tell by calories in and out. I don't monitor that all of the time.
 
Today I did an upper body workout on my own. I did Chest & Triceps. Had a good workout.

This is what I did:

Dumbbell Press: 15's - 2 sets/16 reps (warmup)
Dumbbell Press: 25's - 3 sets/10 reps
Incline Dumbbell Press: 25's - 3 sets/12 reps
Incline Pushups: 3 sets/10 reps

Close Barbell Bench Press: 45# - 3 sets/12 reps
Lying Tricep Extension: 12's - 3 sets/12 reps
Overhead Tricep Extension: 25# - 3 sets/10 reps

Then I got on my treadmill and walked a mile.
