Hardcore Rotation Checkin for Mon Jan 9

Morning Ladies -

This morning I did Better Burn Better Buns (TLT) follwed by the aerobic only sections of Endurance for Movement (there aren't that many - maybe 15 minutes).

I can really say that after doing the TLTs 4 days in a row, I'm really feeling them all over my body in different places than I usually get sore (good thing). This was my 2nd time for doing BBBB and I was able to work it a bit harder this time and get into the workout more. I really worked my legs with the paperplate moves to the point I almost couldn't finish the reps and when she said ...4 more...I was like yea right! Ouch my legs and buns felt this one today. I even had to use my 4# med ball today ....as I'm feeling the effects.

I also want to say that the ab work is not really long in any of these TLTs but it is so much fun. Even in the old ones, I love the rollercoasters (where you go into a v-sit with your med ball and then let the med ball slide down your legs on the way down) and the weaving of the ball thru the legs in today's workout with your legs up while crunching.

I also wanted to comment on the Tropical Storm hitting the scenery in the background during these.......and do you notice how it gets darker outside as the workouts progress?

Have great workouts everyone and I'll be back later (as my boss is away until Thursday).
 
Good morning,
I am not sure that I will be working out today. I had a rest day yesterday as well. I have one of the worst colds and laryngitis. Someone called last night and hung up on me, all I could get out was a squeak. I am hoping it wasn't my sprinkler guy that was supposed to fix my timer. I hate missing my workouts:( I hope you all have great workouts today.

Good Morning Everyone!

I'm asking if you ladies could say a prayer for my dear little nephew (3 months old). My sister took him to the emergency room and the docs said he was too critical. The baby is going by ambulance to a children's hospital in Indianapolis. I don't know a lot of the details right now. They were going to do a spinal tap to check for meningitis, but that's when they decided he was too critical. :-( My aunt also went by ambulance this weekend for her heart. She has a pacemaker. Again, I've been waiting for a phone call about here, so when the phone rang early I thought maybe it was my cousin. Please keep them both in your prayers.

Sorry so long!

Today, I did SB. Back to school. So, I had to stop before weights to get everybody going! I needed one of those horns they blow at the football games! ;-) Sleeping in has been nice for them and for me, too. I was able to work out for 1 1/2 to 2 hours before they would even get up.

Oh, my little guy just woke up. I'll check back later.

Diane Sue ~ I hope you feel better soon! :)

Lora ~ I just may try BBBB today.

Hi to all who follow!

Hi Guys!

Diane Sue, I hope your cold gets better REAL soon. I've been very fortunate in only getting one illness (congestion) so far. Every week there is a sign posted at my son's daycare of something....like strep, etc.

Lora, I'd like to do TLT's a little more. What I'm will try to do, is do one at night and stick with my Cathe schedule in the morning.


This morning I did PS Legs standing and instead of the floorwork, I did Firm It Up with my Jolies and 15lb barbell, standing. I wanted to bang out some shoulders, but it's raining again and the temp. hovers between 29-34 degrees can make driving slloooowww. I don't like to be late for work.
I go to the doctors this afternoon! I'll hopefully find out for sure when I'm having the baby. Boy, I'm definitely ready now.
He/She doesn't stay still for long at all. I think we're both getting eager. hahahaha

Morning ladies!

I am tired today. We helped my mom move for 5 hours yesterday, but we got her all moved. Thank goodness. lol

Lora-I am glad you are enjoying your new workouts.

Dallas-I am so sorry about your Nephew!! Keep us informed. I will be thinking of him and hoping he gets better. I hope you Aunt gets better soon too.

Diane Sue-I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Susan-Let us know what your doctor says. Hopefully you will be meeting this little one soon!

Hi to you other GREAT ladies!!

Have a great day!
 
Good morning!!

This morning I did KPC (Intensity Drills and combos 2+3). After that I did some back work.

Yesterday I ran 7-miles before going to church and did MM in the afternoon.

Lora - I think I'm pretty interested in the TLT workouts, but right now I think I'm more interested in the "Coffey" ones. I like when you boss is away...you seem so much happier!!

Dallas - So sorry about you nephew...I know his mother is having a hard time. I will definitely say a prayer for them. Keep up posted on this. What did you think about SB? Didn't you say you hadn't done this workout in a while?

Susan - Hope your doctor appointment goes well...I'm getting anxious...can't wait to find out if it's a boy or girl...but you will have to have to baby for us to find that out. Good workout this morning...

Diane Sue - Sorry you are not feeling well. If you don't feel like working out then I know you are feeling bad. Take care and get well soon.

Hi to all that follow...I'll check back in later!

Dallas I am so sorry to hear about your you newphew:( Is he going to Reilly hospital??? That is where my son Dr. went. It is a WONDERFUL childrens hospital!! I will say prayers for him, and your sister and her family. What a stressful time for them all:(

Diane Sue I am in the same boat as you. I am sick with the flu:( The BAD kind!!Hope you get better soon!!

Just thought I would quick pop in before I went to get my dd6 with kintergarten.

Take care,

Hello Ladies,

I have a busy day but wanted to say hello. Dallas I will pray for your nephew and your aunt. Diane SUe and Nicole I hope you get better soon! Susan, let us know what the doctor says. Hello to lora and Sabrina. Marietta, I sent you an e-mail.


Terri
 
Hi again,

Thanks for the prayers and thoughts for them. I just talked to my brother-in-law. The baby will have to have surgery. His intestines is up in his lung cavity. Poor little guy! Nicole, yes he's at Reilly's. I'm glad it's a good children's hospital. My aunt was released. I think she needs to get used to her pacemaker. It's been doing it's job, which is a good thing.

Marietta ~ Yes, it's been awhile since I've done SB. I have to get re-acquanted with the choreography. I did better than I did with RS the first few times!:)

Nicole ~ You're sick again! You poor thing! Hope you get better really soon.

I did BBBB. I still have to do GS-Chest. I may just add it tomorrow with GSB. I'd have to do BBBB a few more times to really get a feel for it. I think I need the 5# squishy ball though. The paper plate or towel thing will not work on my floor. It's the puzzle mat kind. I'll have to find a substitution or a better prop.

Hello again

Things went well at the doctor. The baby turned again back to breech, so a cesarean is inevitable for sure now. It looks like my due date is now January 31.

I'm up to 111 pounds! That's three MORE pounds than I was four weeks ago. Ugh!

Over the weekend my husband spoke to the person who hired him for this other job, and they decided between switching insurance and the Quarterly "timing", he wants my husband to start in April.
It's good for insurance purposes and the higher pay, but bad since he'll still be gone Mon.-Fri. He's lucky I'm SUPERWOMAN! hahaha

Lora, Marietta's right, now that she pointed it out, you do seem happier when your boss is out. My boss is out of the country and will be back in the office Jan. 30. I'm off to have my baby on the 31st. HA! He's been counting on the original due date of Feb. 10.

Hey guys...went running today at lunch. We did a short run so I got on the elliptical machine for about 15 minutes when we got back.

Susan - You crack me up!! OMG...a whopping 111 pounds!! Add about 50 to that and you would have me when I was pregnant!! Have you ever had a C-section before? My 1st DD was breech and I had to have one. Your boss is out too?? That would be so like heaven to me...I could never get that lucky.

Dallas - I'm glad your aunt is good. I'll say a prayer for her continued health and strength. What kind of operation will they be doing on you nephew?

Terri - I got your message...I sent a reply. Take care...

Sabrina - We posted at the same time earlier...You are quite the busy-bee these days aren't you?? Take it easy...

Well...I got my Cardio Kicks/Circuit Max DVD this afternoon. Don't know if I'll do it tomorrow or not...I forgot that I was supposed to be doing the January rotation...guess I better get started...soon!

Later...

Thought I'd pop in here to give you an update. My nephew had surgery this afternoon. He had a herniated diaphragm. He will have to stay a few more days and then will get to come home.:) Gosh, I start my morning out crying and now I'm on cloud nine. I'll take it! Thanks for all the prayers!

Marietta ~ You would think that you worked at a gym instead of a bank with all the workouts you get in during the day! ;-) That's awesome! I can't wait to see how you like CK/CM. I think I'd like that next or SS/PP or PS.

Sabrina ~ Is your mom still close by you? You got a workout in just lifting all of that stuff! I think I hurt my back lifting a Christmas box. I guess that means no GS-Back tomorrow. I just felt it today from this weekend.

Lora ~ Enjoy this time with your boss away!

Susan ~ Yeah, add another 40 and that was me pregnant! ;-) Your due date is close to my youngest (1/28). We have a 3rd b-day coming. No more baby!:-( In fact, he told me, "I'm a big kid now..." Think pull-up commercial as he was putting on his pul-up. He's back to potty training. I think we're going to get it this time! I know Marietta asked, but have you had a C-section with Justin?

Terri ~ I got your e-mail. I'm sorry I haven't e-mailed you back. I will. I wasn't on the computer too much today.

Diane Sue and Nicole ~ How are you feeling? Nicole, how are you taking care of the kids? It's so hard when moms get sick. :-(

OK, I'm off to do some yoga or Cool it Off. Maybe I can work this kink out of my back. I hope!
