Wow, what a mess it is outside. We had a 3 foot snow drift near our back door this morning. Still coming down. I'm not going into work until a little later, my boss called and said not to come in until around 11. Fine by me.

This morning I worked my shoulders. Did 3 sets/8-10 reps with 2 minutes rest. This is what I did:

Dumbbell Press: 15's (warmup) 2 sets/12 reps
Barbell Press: 55# 1 set/8 reps; 45# 1 set/10 reps (thought I had 50# on the bar, this was WAY easy); 50# 1 set/8 reps
Dumbbell Arnold Press: 25's 1 set/7½ reps; 22's 2 set/8 reps
Wide Grip Upright Rows: 45# 1 set/10 reps; 50# 2 sets/10 reps
Barbell Shrugs: 55# 1 set/16 reps; 75# 2 sets/12 reps (these were easy)

Then I hopped on my treadmill and did Cardio Coach #1. Wore my HRM for this, workout was 40 minutes, was in my zone for 29 min. and burned 200 calories.

Hope you all have great workouts!
 
Morning ladies.
I am a day behind. I did B&G standing. I had to skip the hammer thrust lunges, but made the rest ok.I only did 30# on deadlifts. I was pushing it there. Not supposed to go to heavy yet.My legs wew a on fire. No doms yet? Funny... Couple more weeks.Then i hit the treadmill for 20 min. This was enough.Did 1 1/2 miles on the treadmill elevated to 5 at 4mph. I am gettingg back here slowly. Didn't finish up till 7:30pm and i was worried about the power going out.Had to get a bath.

Everything is covered in ice.Branches are everywhere.

Deb you must be like in awesome shape if you are only burning 200 cal in 40 min.
Char sorry about your FIL.
Janie,,,,,, good job on GS. I love that workout .


Tonite's goal is cardio only. I am doing one day some weights and 1 cardio only I am going to try some lower abs, if it does not pull. I think i will try the leg curls with the medecine ball...

God , it feels good to be able to workout again.

Morning Ladies- I did Muscle Max and then about a half hour or so of Rebecca Small's Step Revolution (learning this and did on the lower step so intensity was very low). Step Revolution was tons of fun. I only got a bit lost in a couple spots. I learned 3 combos and repeated a bit. I think this is one of my fave's so far. I also did Yoga Synthesis 2 for 60".

We got a ton of snow here and it's still coming down. This weather sucks.

I've got to go fold laundry. I'll be back.
 
Morning Maniacs! Happy Valentines day to you all. Looks like everybody had some good workouts this morning and yesterday! This morning I did Slim Series 'Firm it up'. This is a good leg workout with a nice ab section and good stretch at the end.

You all are having such bad weather! Over here in Utah we are finally getting some decent weather. Should be in the low 40's today.

Have fun today!

Gotta run..

Good Afternoon Maniacs!!!

At the last minute, I have decided to just take today as my rest day and then continue with back/biceps tomorrow. Little sleep last night..was a bit unsettling for me. I think the storm is over and I am just settling into the calm..hopefully, not like a hurricane when the storm soon returns once more. lol. I hope we can move on from here and FIL gets the message so no one needs to get their feelings hurt. I just think it is rude to TELL us that he WILL stay another 3-4 months and do as he pleases. Not have plans, etc. What happen to my life??? What about my plans? Anyhow, he has left with my dh as they will fly out tomorrow. I told FIL *again* that I hope he finds a place...and good luck, etc. lol. Dh thinks he will not want to come back now. I need to just take the day to clear my head of all the junk and garbage...as Tony says (see I have these workouts almost memorized) lol. That is what he says on Yoga X for all you xer's.

So we got some ice and some snow. Was very bad this morning. No one was out except for dh who thought he could still go into work. Didn't make it and came back home. Not bad out now.

Hey all snow bunnies...
It is getting really cold again.
I am heading early. I am going in late tomorrow. DD can handle things.
DOMS are majorly kicking in. My legs are killing me. It may be an unwanted rest day.
Gonna go home and maybe go to dinner.

We goot some serious snow here now . It has been at it all day...
have a HAppy Valentines Day!!!!

Hey Peeps!

Just had to pop in really quick (I'm SO behind at work!) and tell you that I did ME today. I'm SO happy that you all told me how I would not be lifting heavier with Cathe after P90X. You were right! I thought I was gonna die!!! I'm pretty sure I'll have DOMS tomorrow!

I also just had to say that DH doesn't usually do flowers. That was my decision years ago b/c although I love them - love to grow them and cut them or buy cheap ones from Wal-Mart, I feel like they are soooo overpriced and I have a hard time spending that much money. I'd rather have something that lasts. But that's just me. WELL, today he brought me 14 long stemmed yellow and pink roses for our 14th wedding anniversary. He tried to have them delivered but he called a little too late. :) I much preferred him as the delivery guy than the sweet old man who was here from the same florist earlier this morning. I got a kiss with my delivery.

Char - I'm sorry about what you've been going through with your FIL. Hang in there girl.

Suz,

Thanks! Trying. Things will be better for 14 days at least. ;-) So you got yourself some roses? Good for you. Sounds nice. So much nicer too for your dh to be the delivery guy..I know you enjoyed that.

So a large truck is stuck in front of our home, on our country gravel road. A guy is out there trying to push it out. :eek: If he had a subaru wrx he wouldn't be stuck! :p I should go out and help and just get in my workout that way. he he. Ya'll need to get out here and help this man get his truck out. We could do it easily.;-)

HOLY COW!!!
Just got done with ultra cardio blast off of Drill Max 63 min of repeting each drill twice! Way harder then Imax 3 I think! But I finished it !!!! (barley)

Anne - Did you all get hit as hard as we did? I think we got an average of 14" of snow. There is ice underneath on the roads. Made for a fun ride into work and home. And thanks about the calorie burn thing, its frustrating sometimes burning such low calories, but I know that means my body is conditioned. I'm glad to see you doing workouts again!

Lora - This weather does not suck. I LOVE IT!!! :)

Char - I'm glad you FIL is gone for a while. Give you time to get your sanity back.

Maeghan - Excellent cardio workout, girl! Great calorie burn as well!

Suz - How cool about the roses! Sounds so beautiful! My dh gave me a musical card. LMAO!

Randi - Excellent workouts! Holy crap!
 
Meg - from my experience on my machines in the basement .....if it says I burned 544, my HR monitor would probably say I burned about 344-390. I think higher calorie burns come mostly with longer workouts or workouts where I get my HR pretty eleveated and keep it there for an extended period. I don't burn that much with, say, a 40 minute Cardio Coach workout. I think a lot of caloric burn comes in the "afterburn" with interval training. The only reason my burns have been so high lately....is cuz I leave my HR monitor running thru weights and then cardio, etc....so I'm getting afterburn, and new burn. Can't wait for you to get your new yoga........which reminds me....I've got 3 of these tapes ready to go. I have to try to find out how much it's gonna cost to mail. I'll have to PM you. I've got LB Hip Hugger Abs, LB Muscle Eats Fat and Fat Free - The Bar Method (so far). Still awaiting High Round Assets DVD....but I can only fit 3 tapes in the envelope any way.
 
Randi, way to go.
I am officially skipping tonite. My legs have kicked in. OWCH...
Char, I am so sorry for the FIL crap. I know it is probably driving you nuts. MY MIL HATES ME... Who cares.

Meag, did you get your package?
Quiet here today.
My driveway is like 10" deep. Thank god for 4wd..
DH is making mne crazy. Quit snowing please. Ship his a** back to work.
\ I updated 1 month pics.Definitely doing the eyes next year. I just did a dermabrasion trmt, so looks shiny,no makeup and i waxed my lip and brows, but chest is looking and might i say feeling better. Not so boxy. LOL...
Now to loose the 4# i gained.I feel like a cow...
Might have to come anorexic here...LOL...

Deb- I don't mind driving in the snow (it's sort of fun) but I HATE the frigid cold temps and dealing with walking thru the snow. I'm a dessert girl.....love that 90-100 degree dry heat. Way to cold for me now.
 
Hey Snow bunnie Maniacs! I've made you all some Valentine Cookies!:) I was alittle worried that they'd turn out like Suzs' bread. ROFL! But, by some miracle, they look like normal cookies. Dh is working late, but since I made cookies...he owes me!}(

Anne- the pictures look really good! I bet you are pleased.:)

Lora- I think driving in the snow is fun too! As long as it's not icey.

Char- Enjoy your time with out the FIL. Hopefully he'll find a place soon.

Janie- Did you get the new toy yet?

Meg- Great treadmill workout! My treadmill always reads at least 100+ more calories burned than the HRM.

Suz- Fun you got flowers from your goodlooking delivery man.:)

When does Amber get back from Vacation? Hope she's having fun!

Hi to everyone else!:)

Anne- lookin fine! You look great! I don't know if the mailman made it today or not. i am going to go out and check the mailbox in a few. If not, then tomorrow probably. Can't wait.

Lora- cool about the vids. Let me know. Oh, I was pretty sure it wasn't that many cals, but I was wished! I guess 200 less sounds good. I need a HRM. Just to cheap LOL!!

Thanks for the cookies Dallys, yum!

Char- I emailed you.:)
