Hi evryone.
Not sure what I am doing tonnite. Depends on how i feel.

Just gettin you going today
 
Good Morning Maniacs!!!

The key word today is *boobs*! I suppose. :p Moving right along...

Today is bike ride and biceps/triceps/shoulders and ab work. Somebody come mow my grass I have no time.

Anne,

Sorry to hear your sick. Sleeping 12 hours and you must feel like a zombie. Hope you kick it soon.

Charlotte~~
 
Actually Char, i feel like a bus hit me in the face. I was taking vit c everytime someone around me sneezed and i slacked off. Wala...

Randi, are you going to the road trip??? I am so jealous....
 
Morning Maniacs -

This morning I did Barry's Bootcamp Full Body workout followed by Fluidity Beginners and 30" of CIA - Kim Spreen - Absolute Kickboxing. I also did Ana & Ravi's Beginners & Beyond - Rise and Spine yoga. Workout was around 2 hours and 10 minutes and I burned 520 calories.

Today's workout was tough to get thru after doing Barry's every day this week. My shoulders can't take all of these tons of pushups, mountain climbers, squat thrusts, etc. day in and day out - even though this is the way they recommend to do them. I think I will separate the days with a day of cardio in between next week.

I loved..loved this Kimberly Spreen workout. It has a combat secgment that uses the body bar and it was so much fun.....only you have to watch you don't smack yourself in the shin on the down blocks with the bar like I did when I got carried away. The music in this is EXCELLENT again. This is probably a "sin" to say on here....but I think the music in most of these new CIA's is even better than Cathe's.....at least her last series. It is again reminiscent of Old Tae Bo Live music. Lots of vocals and funky stuff. I think I'm really going to like this set for that reason.

Toasty - was not excited about the interview at all. I'm not sure I'd even want the job. The hours aren't set...as they see indigent patients and are open 10 hours straight. They may even have to work Saturdays in the future. There are other things I didn't like either....but if my unemployment was going to run out and I HAD to take a job......I suppose that would be a different story....however, I don't need to do that just yet.

Have great workouts. I'll be around today.
 
Good Morning, today I plan on doing some kickboxing, then the M&F rotation calls for Triceps and abs, I also want to do some yoga if time permits. I need to clean house now that the extra dog and grandchildren are gone. I do pick them up from school today. I will come back later and post yesterday and today's workouts.

Anne, you sound miserable. I hope you kick that bug soon.

Charlotte, I need my grass mowed but it is to wet outside right now. It looks like a jungle:) It sounds like you have a lot going on.

Lora, I think you need to split that workout up some. It will do you no good if you beat yourself up doing it:)

Morning Maniacs! Today is a weight workout and hopefully some cardio. I need to burn off that Chocolate cake I had yesterday. Oy!

Anne- Hope you start feeling better today. You sound miserable. I'm spraying my keyboard just in case.:p:D

Toasty-Alot of those tops were very cute on that website you posted, not to mention a good price. Diane Sue will look adorable in that top. I wonder if I could wear a small in those. I'm like a tweener. Some tops I need med. and some I can wear small. I need to try them on I guess.

Lora- Glad you are liking the new CIA's. :)

Diane Sue- What kind of dog were you watching? Enjoy your peace now that the kids and dog are gone.:)

Morning everyone!

I'm off today - from everything! I really need it too, I'm emotionally drained.

Today I did Cardio Coach Press Play workout. Had a great workout and the time just flew by. I love my new HRM, it's keeping excellent track of my HR. I've noticed that I got to my zone 3 faster then usual, not sure if it's the anxiety I'm feeling or what. I hit my zone 4 a few times too, which is unusual.

Workout was 1:11, was in my zone for 58 minutes and burned 456 calories. Last time I did this workout with my Polar HRM the workout was 1:14, was in zone for 57 minutes and burned 406. Big difference here.

Hope you all have great workouts!
 
Good Morning:)
Today I did KPC punching and kicking combos and Muscle Max upper body only and abs. Think I kind of pulled my groin muscle:(

Anne I'm sorry your sick hope you feel better soon! Yes I am going on the road trip! My mom is goin with me but she is not part of the road trip. Hopfully she can watch me workout with Cathe:)
BBL Have a good day everyone
Randi
 
Bionics,

I am same. Sometimes need a medium too. Those tops fit me perfect in small, but they would fit you too. I got another from that site. A black/pink tiger striped halter style top with silver metal circle thingy in center with dangling silver strips. I think it is close to the last page, if not last page with the small tops. That is the one that caused a problem for me when wearing around FIL..EW!

What I do when FIL is away...

(1) Imax Blast move thru the house while chasing dogs
(2) Slam and bang stuff as loud as I can just for the fun of it
(3) Sing Hank Williams Jr songs as loud as I can while doing laundry
even though I can't remember most of the words and I can't sing! Not to mention I don't care for country that much either. Oy!


So anyhow, guess I am getting excited to move? Answer is YES!!!! I am still waiting for weather to warm up so I can get the heck out of this house. Otherwise will do a step blast.

Charlotte~~
 
Hello Maniacs!!

I said I wasn't going to run, but when you wake up late and you need to get the most bang for you buck...you run. I did the treadmill run from Barry's Bootcamp (I did Nadia's run). With a cooldown I ran a total of about 4-miles.

Anne - Hi There...thanks! I hope you feel better...soon.

Randi -Congrats on making it to the roadtrip - a very coveted trip I might add. Hope you mom can watch.

Toasty - LOL on the things you do when you FIL is away!!

Debbie - I see you've become a huge cardio coach fan...I have a CC that I've had over year and have yet to try....Don't even ask me why.

Hi to the rest of the maniacs! Have a wonderful day!

>Deb & Dallys - you got the monitor on Ebay? What's the name
>of it again?

Lora- I got mine from Amazon--Nike Imara Women's Heart Rate Monitor - Iron/High Polish - SM0032-003 for 51.87 (58.95 or something with shipping).

If you look on Ebay, it is the "Nike Imara" SM0032 model. Make sure you read the description carefully as some of the same model have a "43 lap counter" instead of a "calorie counter". And some don't come with a strap or Manual.

Anne - I'm sorry to hear you are under the weather. That sucks! I've been jamming down the Vitamin C because whenever the weather breaks, I get something. I refuse to get sick this spring! Take care of yourself.

Char - Whats up with the keyword "boobs"? I'm lost! LOL! That cracked me up about what you will do when FIL is away!!! You go girl! Sing that Hank Williams!!!

Lora - Great workout!

Dallys - You will love your new HRM! I can't wait until you get it either!

Randi - Excellent workout, hope your groin is ok. Stretch it out gently. Congrats on going on the Road Trip!!!

Lora - I got a Nike Imara from Ebay for $58. Dallys got hers from Amazon.

Marietta - So good to see you back on the checkin!!! You have to try CC, you will LOVE it!!!

I'm getting ready to go shopping, want to get some new shorts from Old Navy or Kohl's. Looking forward to it. Its chilly here but the sun is shining!!

Yep, and some of them are just the watch. You gotta make sure the strap is included in the picture.
 
Hello everyone. Sunny here too. Holy Crappolla, I got a good WO in this AM. I did ME UB and then did abs and stretch from BM2. I have taken about a week and a half off from WO's. Just not mentally there. So, It felt WONDERFUL to pick up my dumbells. And the stretch at the end was amazing. I hope to squeeze in some yoga sometime today too. Depends on the kids. I hope to be sore tomorrow.
My hands were really hurting during the chest work, but I finished it out anyway.

Anne- I hope you feel better. My son Connor has it now. I am still trying to avoid, but throat is dry.

Deb- enjoy your rest and shopping.

Dallys- I still need a HRM!! LOL! Someday I guess. I just make up my calorie burn to feel good.

Randi- have an awesome time on the RT. I am sure you will have a blast.

Char- sounds like some fun planned while FIL is away. Enjoy it.

Lora- I have hit my shins with a DB a few times during ME abs. Hurts like a mother!!!

DS- have a great WO, amongst all the visitors!!

Marietta- how are you?? Glad to see you back too!

Dallys & Deb - What does it mean about the battery "Hatch" makes it easy to change the battery? Exactly how easy is it? Does it have screws, etc?
 
Lora- Are you going to get one? Since I don't have mine yet, I can't say if they have a screw or not. But, the "hatch" means you can change your own batteries on the Chest strap as opposed to having to send it back to the company to do it, like Polar HRM chest straps require. That's why Polar sucks! It cost you something like $35+ dollars to have Polar change the battery or replace the strap or whatever they do! Polar makes it impossible to do it yourself. Which is rediculous.

ETA: I'm hoping to get mine today sometime.:)
