I ended up doing Spinning - Crank It Up with Joshua Taylor - interval workout. Workout was 63" long and I burned 443 calories. I still didn't push all out intensity as I'm still recovering from this flu, but had a decent workout. The standing climbs are particularly challenging for me and I worry about putting too much pressure on my metatarsal also.

I get my foot x-rayed tomorrow. I wonder how long before I'll be able to run and resume normal activities. I don't want to start too early and re-fracture it....so I guess I better listen to the doctor (well.....in my own twisted sort of way!!).

I have to call for a job interview in a little bit. There was a message on the recorder last night from a resume I sent in.

Have great workouts everyone.
 
Good Morning, I have to take my grandchildren to school in a little bit. I started my workout this morning doing the Treadmill lower body workout in Muscle and Fitness Hers and then added to it to do 5 miles. When I get back I will do Amy Bento's All Pump Ex Upper body. BBL

This morning I did Cardio Coach #6 with Sean. I like this workout but I think I like Candace's version better. It's humid here again so I was sweating like a mofo.

Cardio stats:
1 hr. total time
49 min. in zone
346 calories burned
3.35 miles travelled

HUSBAND RANT:
Why is it that the man cannot get up on his own???? Oy vay!!! A few weeks ago he had to be at work by 5:30 a.m. - funny how he could get up on his own at that time, but of course I wasn't up to wake him up so he knew he had to get up on his own. Now that he doesn't have to be at work until 8, he can't drag his @ss out of bed by 7. WTF??? So every time I workout I have to stop and go wake him up. It's really ANNOYING especially when I'm doing cardio because I have to hop off my treadmill during a rest interval and then run upstairs to wake him up. GEEZ!!! I feel like his mother. He sets his alarm too, I just don't get why he doesn't get up on his own.

Ok rant over...

It's still raining here.

Char - Great going with the workout! Do you want my split? I'll send it to you.
 
Deb - your rant has me cracking up. I can NEVER hear the alarm no matter how hard I try. It can go off for a solid hour before I'd hear it. If I need to get up at a certain time, I have to have my DH yell upstairs. He only does it when it's convenient for him though. I've always had this problem cuz back when I lived at home, I used to have 2 alarms set....one on each side of my bed and sometimes that still didn't wake me. I wonder if a fog horn would work?? LOL. It has been raining here for days also! Sick of the gloom!

I have an interview at 3:00 today with a Dermatology practice in the subburbs. I hope they like me!!!
 
Lora- I'm sure they will like you!

Char- your post yesterday was funny...you did a great job on the workout:)

My workout will be Step of SJP and BM step.
 
Hey Maniacs! Did CC#5 this morning. Did I ever mention I hate sprints! LOL! Give me hills anyday. Funny, it's opposite on my real bike outside...I hate hills and love going fast. Strange.

Debbie and Lora- You all need a dog. There's no sleeping in with a dog! They don't allow it...even on weekends!

Anne- I have "Rockstar" as my new ringtone.:)

Great workouts everyone, gotta run. Talk later!

Well I have 5 dogs..anyone want one???? Please say YESSSS!!!!!! They all came in yesterday from being outside and knocked me over. Like a friggin' herd of deer or something running thru the house.
 
Dallys- actually, if I fed the cats, I might have that problem, but they bug my DH -- not me....cuz he's the one who feeds them. The oldest cat nudges him and paws at him as early as 1:00 am sometimes! I love sprints!!! I just got Spinervals Sprinting Machine!

Toasty - what are you gonna do about all those freakin' dogs!! My goodness! That's a lot of work!

Deb - Shock Therapy!! LOL. It might help me in other areas too!! I just got the other older Papa Roach CD in the mail from Amazon. I'm listening to it now. I'll let you know what I think. It's just such great workout music.....IMO!

I was at my Mom's this morning and she suggested I try wearing a different outfit to my interview cuz she said the other one wasn't bringing me any luck.........so I listened to dear Ol' Mom and am wearing my gray pants and a pink sweater. We'll see if it works.

Great workouts everyone!!
 
I finished up my workout doing Amy Bento All Pump Ex upper leaving out the core since I did it yesterday, I finished off with Rainbeau's Dawn Yoga Bonus. I am hoping I get my car back soon. I have to go pick up grandchildren in a couple of hours.

Debbie, my bother used to have an old fire alarm to wake himself up. We were visiting and it scared me half to death:) Mom moved his bed into the garage.LOL

Charlotte, I only let my dogs out one at a time. When they come in they have to sit and stay first, then I can back up and give them the OK. They are too big to go tearing into the house. The Dane walks on my feet. If they try running in I march them back out and we start over. 5 dogs is just to many, I feel for you.

Lora, good luck with the interview. I hope the other outfit helps:)

Hi Ladies!

Another crazy day at work! I cancelled a class yesterday due to low enrollment and then forgot to call the 4 students. DUH! So I gave them all a free class - it was only $10. I felt really bad. Normally my assistant would have done it but she was out sick. My assistant did all the computer part of the work today (cleaned up my mess) so I said I owed her lunch or something and she chose a Blizzard from Dairy Queen for her and this other assistant. So I'm going to get them each one in a bit. :) But none for me!

This morning I did S&H Triceps & Biceps (Dallys, I can't believe you got rid of that one!!!). DH calls it Hot & Heavy. Nice, huh? Then I did 50 minutes on the bike on the trainer in the basement.

Lora - Good luck on your interview! I'm sure they'll like you.

[font color=red]Late lunch for me. Was on a roll and in the zone at work and missed a couple of meals.:eek: I'm scarfing (true story!) down a sweet potato, cottage cheese, and corn on the cob. Yes, that's 2 starches, no leafy greens, etc. (looks around for food police). As you can tell, I'm getting too obsessed with my eating and meals and all. That's what I hate! I like to just freestyle my eating, but that's when I gain 5lbs without blinking. LOL![/font]

[font color=blue]Char- Did your husband and you decide on keeping the 3 poodles? I bet if you call a groomer in your area, they could help you place a couple of them. I do it all the time.:)

Lisa- Great job on your workout!:)

Lora- Good luck with the interview.

Diane Sue- You do a great job with those big dogs.

Deb- Danged if I'm not gonna have to "youtube" that "Papa roach" group, with all this talk about it.:p

Suz- Don't rub it in about Hot and Heavy:)P)...I know already! [/font]

Dallys - I think I'm gonna have to say it every time I do Hot & Heavy. :p

Diane Sue - I agree with Dallys on what a great job you do with those big dogs. I need to take lessons from you! Mine are pretty well-behaved, but they get away with a lot more than yours do b/c I'm lazy. :)

On the alarm thing - my DH cracks me up. His alarm goes off and he practically jumps out of bed. I'd rather hit the snooze 15 times. But I don't b/c my dogs want to be fed so they jump off the bed and back up on the bed and off of the bed and up on the bed. Otherwise I WOULD hit my snooze 15 times.
