Hi everyone,

Happy Friday. Today was Slow & Heavy Biceps, Coremax Balanced Core Premix and CTX Kicbox with some of the higher impact on my rebounder and then 10 extra minutes of cardio on my rebounder. My back is still somewhat painful, but on the mend, so I wanted to watch my impact this week.

Have great workouts everyone. Let's hope I do better with food and sugar today.
 
Hi everyone,
I'm planning to take today off. I have to clean the house and head out to the dentist and go from there. I'm going to take my son to Pizza Hut for lunch. He likes it there, and the salad bar is pretty good. My DH gets home around 5:00 (he travels all week), so we'll go out to dinner (his company pays for his meal). Talk about eating better, Lora...it's tough sometimes.

Have great weekends and workouts eveyone. I'll try to check in one Saturday and Sunday, but I'm not always so good about that.

Take care,
Susan C.M.:D
 
Hi Everyone,

I did KickMax Low Imapct time saver(stopped at the leg drills),
then did KPC punching and kicking, then CoreMax #1 and a stretch from KickMax.

Lora, I've been keeping my workouts low impact lately. My lower back really hurts from to much high impact jumping. My basement floor is the culprit. I use Puzzle mats, but there is not enough cushioning for me. I am saving to buy some Aerobic Tile.

I work this weekend, so I won't have the opertunity to workout. Hopefully I will get some walks in.

Have a Great Weekend, everyone.

Elaine:)
 
Hello Everyone,
Today I do GS biceps and a cardio of my choice. Hey last night I ended up doing BB timesaver #4. Had a lot of FUN with it!!

Elaine, have you tried shoe inserts?? I moved to doing my workouts in my basement this year. It is already carpeted and has good padding. I heard everyone RAVING about the puzzel mats and they made a BIG difference, but I had already had my inserts.(they to really helped also) Tell me about these aerobic tiles.

Susan can you come over and help me clean:7 Lunch sounds GOOD though??? I have to do that today and go to the grocery store. Going to get out my cook books and find some different meals before I go.

Lora how do you like your rebounder? I want one, but not sure if I will use it???

Take care,
~Nicole
 
I get SO MUCH use out of my rebounder. I just got it for Christmas and I was bummed cuz there aren't many rebounder DVDs out there. Then in February, I discovered Cathe and discovered I couldn't do a lot of the high impact, so someone on this forum suggested using my rebounder. I have done so ever since. I usually try to do a little bit of impact during the week and I'm trying to build up to more, but we'll see. I must have something wrong in my lower back (never had it imaged, but I have herniated discs in my cervical spine). I find I use that rebounder practically for every Cathe aerobic workout. I will never attempt the flying jumps and knee tucks on the floor, as my back can't handle it. I don't know if it's age (45) or just my body. My heartrate gets up to 152-155 on the rebounder just doing the jumps on it....so I think that's good. I LOVE my rebounder and couldn't live without it. Sometimes ....if I don't want to jump off for the step portion, I'll improvise and do the step segment (sort of like they're doing it) on the rebounder and other times I'll jump off and on to my step and then back onto the rebounder. I think it's fun....I especially like doing all of the flying jacks and knee tucks on it....I feel like a kid.
 
Good morning all,

Today is C&W (the FitTV version). My first time doing this workout, and I'm excited!! ;) Later this afternoon I'm hoping the weather holds so I can do some GardenMax. I want to get my garden finished!

Hope your back gets to feeling better soon, lorajc. That's quite a workout you've got planned! Rock on!! }(

Enjoy your Fridays.... :p

Connie :D
 
Hey its OK Connie you can join us:D We all started with the Hardcores, but now we check in daily here with check-ins. Keeps us motivated.

Lora THANKS for the post on rebounder. Do you have a urban rebounder? That is what I am wanting for my B-day. Thanks for the positive feedback.

Take care,
~Nicole

Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend!!:7
 
Yes, it's an Urban Rebounder and it came with the beginner/intermediate DVDs (kinda boring compared to Cathe).
