Today I did LITE Cardio Party, 41 minutes, heart rate 134/164, 230 calories, 4,284 steps. I then did LITE Pyramid Pump Biceps supersets and Triceps supersets and added 2 sets of 12 reps for side lying rotator cuff rotations with a 5# dumbbell. 21 minutes, 76 calories, heart rate 105/125. I finished off wit Raw Athletic Stretch, #2, 30 minutes, heart rate 75/91. Total time was 91 minutes, 347 calories, 4,462 steps.
I loved the Raw Athletic Stretch 2. It felt good and she takes her time and also fits in some movement. The music was fun and I found myself singing the tunes.

Debbie, I don't know why insurance companies waste time and money. When I had the torn miniscus the doctor had an mri set up right away. I always drove the then 100 mile trip back to my doctor because I did not want to change doctors. I would stay with family when I came down. The insurance said no I had to do an ultrasound and X-ray first. So, I had to see a surgeon in the city we lived in and he had to get the authorization at a local hospital from the insurance. It took a long time to finally get to the mri. Also I had to pay a 1600 dollar amount that was not expected right on the day of surgery. I was sure I was not supposed to have to pay. Anyway I got a surprise 6 months post surgery when the hospital gave me back my money.
Hopefully you can get some other testing and not have to go for an mri. It seems like there would have to be a reason for fluid in the knee though.
Doreen once in in a while my dog who is turning grey gets super peppy and is jumping and running like crazy. She must have got a bunch of energy the last three days because she has been bouncing all over the place and wanting us to play. Yesterday I was lying on the floor doing my stretching and she came flying in leaped over my head and grabbed her bone then came over to me jumping around and took off to get my husband to play with her. She did the same when I was trying to mop the floor the night before. I used to have a dip station that we had purchased from a gym. I used it for dips and leg raises. It also was handy for holding onto tubing as it would not move because it was too heavy. I wonder if the Fit Tower could be substituted. I hate when they make workouts that require extra purchased like that. I am sure she probably has an alternative move though.
Jolie, great job on the treadmill walk and the benefits while watching football. I would like to gain muscle. Particularly in my legs. Hopefully I can do that as it has always been difficult, but at least when I lift heavy they do not look like skinny toothpick legs. I keep telling myself not to do so much cardio and I might have more success. I do a lot less cardio than I used to though.
