Morning Ladies -

This morning I only had time for P90 Masters Core Cardio, as I have to be at work early due to a doctor appointment.

My cyst broke open over the weekend and bled a bit. It is now starting to get smaller and I really don't want to go to the doctor tonight, but I guess I still better go! Yuk.

Terry - I'm sorry you're still having family problems. My husband and I always joke that between just his family and my family we could probably have a few good Jerry Springer episodes and with all of their kids involved, we could probably have a few more. Every family has problems. I know it can be tough to get thru also because after all, they are family.

I don't know if I'm quite ready for a full work week, but I guess I have no choice in the matter. I'm really nervous and scared again this week.

Have great workouts everyone. I probably won't get to check in today and I'll be at the doctor all night, as they squeezed me in.
 
Hello Everyone,
Today I did Shape it up which felt shorter this week than last???


Lora hope you have a GREAT week at work, and hope everything goes well at the Dr. for you:D


Well hate to cut it short, but have to go!!! I will try and come back later!!

Morning ladies

Lora-I hope you have a great week at work!! I hope the doctors appointment goes well and that you are not there all night.

It has been a long weekend here so I have not posted. I have class tonight and I still some reading to get done. Plus worksheets. I don't seem to have enough time! lol

Hi Dallas, Diane Sue, Marietta, Nicole, Susan, and Terri! I hope everyone is doing well. I need to find time to read the last few days posts.

I hope to check in later!
 
Hi Ladies!!

Sounds like everyone has really been busy...so have I!

Saturday - 3 mile run on treadmill, KPC/L&G premix
Sunday - 7.5 mile run on treadmill
Today - Advanced High Step Training. Will probably run or do the elliptical trainer at lunch.

I will have a very busy next few weeks at work, but thats okay because it makes the days much more interesting.

Lora - Hope your Doctor appointment goes well and that you have a great week at work.

Nicole - I hope the fact that your workout felt quicker is a good thing...

Sabrina - Hope you find the time to do all the things that you need to get done.

Terri - I meant to tell you when I last posted (Friday I think) that I'm very sorry about your family situation....I know its tough...hang in there.

I too need to go back and read the threads from the last few days to get myself up to speed...

Hi to everyone that follows...I'll come back later.

Hello Ladies,

Ok today I am going to go off my rotation a bit as I want to alternate the 2 SS workouts I have and do one everyday for a week. Since I don't think they are enough cardio for me I have to add cardio and I want to alsoo add heavier weight workouts for my upperbody. So today I will do bodymax and then Gymstyle BSB. Then tonight I will do shape it up. This seems like I will be spending a lot of time working out but I really want to give the SS workouts a chance to see how they do for my legs. I can bulk easily in lower and I have really leaned it out since I quit lifting heavy about a month or so ago when doing lower body. I do however like the muscle definition in upper body from lifting heavy so want to keep that up. Does this all make sense...I feel like I am rambling!

My son and I went to my dads yesterday afternoon for awhile. We couldn't stay a real long time as my son needed to get back to where he lives. My dad was happy to recieve one of Daves cd's and the cd player Dave bought him. He was like a little kid all happy to see us :)

Lora-I hope all goes well at the doctor
Marietta-I love doing kpc/lg premix that you did :)
Sabrina-Wow you are a busy lady these days. Are you liking the classes?
Nicole-Are you doing SS only for now?
Dallas-What doo you have planned for your day
Hello to Susan and diane sue!

Terri
 
Hello there,

We had a very busy weekend. I'm so glad we got a lot of jobs done around the yard/house. All the leaves are raked and the outside windows are washed. That makes me happy.:)

Friday I took off since I had to fast and go for my Glucose test. Yum. hahaha

Saturday I did Gauntlet. I didn't do all the Terminator Squat Thrusts. I thought I was scaring the baby. There are too many high impact jumps in BC. I've got to remember to avoid that workout.

Sunday I started doing MM, but felt guilty my DH was raking all alone and there was so much to do. That I stopped and worked outside. It was beautiful out. It was almost 60 degrees.

Today I did PS Back and Biceps and GS Biceps. I accidentally must have hit the volume on my alarm clock, so I didn't get up as early as usual. Thank goodness I woke up when I did! My DH had a 7:30 am flight to LA to catch. Maybe tonight I'll do a little cardio.

Lora, how is the new job and boss going? Do you like the hours you have?

Nicole, I love hearing when someone is happy with their rotations and workouts.

Sabrina, good luck getting your homework done. I give you tons of credit for going with three kids.

Dallas, I agree with Nicole on getting the original Step for Christmas. I've had mine for over 15 years! It's kind of dinged up and some paint on it (paint workers decided to borrow it), but I love it!
How does your back feel today?

Terri, That's awesome about your sons' CD release! I'll listen when I get home. The speakers at my office are out right now.
That's terrible how your brother is acting! My husband's family are nut jobs. A little instance can occur and it's blown way up and people wont speak for months or years. I found out recently one of his brothers has two kids (now grown). Who knew? I'm at the point of "who cares". You'll get through this. Enjoy your time with your father and son.

Marietta, Isn't it nice to have a busy weekend? Too busy to log onto the computer?

Hi Diane Sue!

I'll be back later.
Susan:D
 
Good Morning All!

I'm a little late checking in because I ordered these two really cute tops for a few Christmas parties and I can't find them! I remember opening the packaging and throwing that in the garbage. Oh boy, I hope I didn't throw them out! The garbage has been already picked up today. :eek: I was doing laundry at the time I opened them, so I'm hoping I put them away with some of the clean clothes. I've been looking and looking! Cross your fingers!

Lora ~ Good luck with your job and your new boss this week. Just keep an open mind. ;-)

Sabrina ~ I was wondering where you have been? Good luck with getting all that homework done.

Nicole ~ Glad you're liking your rotation. I'm liking the November rotation too. It's a nice change of pace. It's nice to take a break from lifting every day.

Susan ~ Thanks for asking about my back. Today there's no pain anywhere except the DOMS in my legs still from the PLB Sat. }( The pain just starts up out of nowhere and it has hit every part of my left side, but not all at once. Very strange! How did the glucose test go? I was glad to finally have a NOT so busy weekend for once. We finally got a few things done around here too, and I had time to play on the computer. I got five more relatives done for Christmas and I never left the house! LOL!

Marietta ~ You got some good workouts in over the weekend.

Terri ~ I still have to get to Amazon to order your son's CD.

Well, have to continue my search. Have a great day everyone!

Dallas

ETA: Terri, did you say that you're following the Freestyle Method? If so, for how long? Once I read about Freestyle, I immediately lowered my weights for lower body, but it felt good to go heavier on Saturday.
 
Dallas-I do freestyle but not by the book. I started going lighter on the weights about a month ago on my own and realized it makes my thighs and hips more slender. So I am sticking with lighter weights but go heavy one day a week. I still go heavy on upperbody as I said! I love my guns :) I hope you find your tops!

Terri
 
Hi again!

I am suppose to be reading but I have too much on my mind to concentrate so I thought I would check out the forum. lol

Lora-I have been meaning to tell you that I received the tape you sent. Thank you so much! I have not had time to even watch it yet. Let us know how your doctors appointment goes!

Terri-I am liking the classes but there is soooo much information you have to know. There are a lot of things going on at home so I am having trouble concentrating on my reading. I hope I am picking up enough. I need to buy your sons CD. Will they sign it when I get it??

Dallas-I hope you find the two shirts you are looking for.

Susan-How have you been feeling? Is the baby moving around a lot? Do you know if you are having a boy or girl yet?

Thank you ladies for all your words of encouragement!! It means a lot!!!

I will possibly be back later!
 
Oh boy, I forgot to mention what I did for my workout. I did KM, but I did the blast first. It's a better workout for me that way. My heart rate stays elevated longer that way. Then I added on CTX abs (just two sections), which turned out to be about an 18 minute ab workout. Geez, am I too young for Alzheimer's?!:-(

No luck on those tops. :-( I'm sure, or should I say hope, that they'll turn up in the most unusual place.

Sabrina ~ Good idea. Yes, Terri can we get the CD signed somehow?

Terri ~ That's what I have done too -lowered my weights. That's a good idea on keeping one heavy day in though.

I did get my Christmas envelops done last night. I started on the cards, but that's going to take a while. I have to tie this ribbon on each card. Oh boy! It sure looked nice when I bought them. Oh well, I have plenty of time. LOL!

Dallas
 
Hi Dallas and Sabrina-How very kind of you two to be interested in my sons cd. If you order from Amazon they will not be signed as they have to be sent to you with the shrink wrap on them. If you want them signed you can e-mail my son and order through him and he and the other band members will sign them. His e-mail address is on the karma ghost website I believe. Oh wait he just called me. His e-mail is [email protected]. So that is how to get signed copies or if you don't care if they are signed go to amazon :)

Terri
 
Nicole - I'm sneaking from work (already -- yikes). Would you be too upset if I had to sub another SS workout for tomorrow's workout? My boss asked me to be here early and I'll need to do a shorter workout. That means I'll have to sub tomorrow, Wednesday (d/t Doc appt) and I was gonna sub Plyo Legs for Firm it Up on Thursday, as it makes my legs sorer and then I'll finish the week with Shape or Tone it Up on Friday, cardio on Saturday and Tear It Up for the grand finale on Sunday. I don't want to stray too much.....but this is going to be a stressful week time wise. Next month, I'll do better with adhering to the program.
 
I have been posting on the wrong thread (I have been on the Sinday one). Tells you where my brain is at! lol

Terri-I already ordered one from Amazon. Shoot!!x(
 
Sabrina it is ok as I posted to what you said :) You can mail it me when it comes and I will have them sign it! Look back where you posted on sunday :) I will have it signed for you. He is happy to do it :0

Terri
 
Lora I would NEVER be upset with you:D Go a head and do what works for you!! I just appreiate you motivating me with this!!

Terri I am so excited that you to are doing SS's. It's Fun to have another person doing these as well:7 I think you will definitely get good results with lower body. I am feeling more toned already:7

Marietta that was a good run yesterday!! Hey and way to go doing HSA today. How are your legs feeling now??? I tell ya those leg press's are killer}( I think that is one of Cathes hardest workouts!!

Sabrina study hard:)

Dallas happy to hear you side is feeling better!! Maybe it helped doing those deadlifts from pyramids??

Susan your post made me laugh!! :D

Hey Diane Sue how are you doing? Hey I started X-mas shopping today :7

Take care,
~Nicole
 
Nicole - I lied about Plyo Legs making my legs sorer than Firm It Up. My legs feel like they are getting progressively sorer! I may need to do the shorter workouts during the week this week, but I plan on finishing up with a bang........Tear It Up! Are you starting Cathe's November Rotation with me after next week, or are you going to continue on the BB's?

Also - did you ladies see that I got a treadmill yesterday? I'm so excited. I only jumped on it for a few minutes to try it. I need to get clearance from the doctor on my stress fracture before I can start doing run/walks like I want to though.
 
Lora my legs have been feeling that way since I started this rotation }( I will let you know by the end of the week about starting the November rotation??? It looks good, but.......... I may still want to stick to this.... Not sure yet???

How cool you got a treadmill!!! Now don't over do it and run 20 miles the 1st time you get on it:7 I am praying that your foot is healed and you can get back to working out full force again!!

Take care,
~Nicole
 
Good evening,
I see a lot of you have been busy as well. I had my son here helping with my new dining set Fri. then we went and got dinner, my grandson stayed the night Saturday and family came over for dinner and games, Sunday afternoon I spent with my daughter and grandson.

Saturdays workout was stopping at the high intensity stuff, Cardio Kicks power drills, CTX 10,10,10 cardio, Upper Pyramid down no w/u, Core Max #3 Pyramid st.
Sun. rest
Today I Max 3 no st, MM lower, stop at st, Bowflex 3 sets 15 reps inner outer thighs, and cable kickbacks, 3 sets 30 reps calves,100 resisted crunches, 50 ea. side resisted oblique twists, MM abs and st.

Dallas, I hope you find your shirt. I hate losing things like that. They usualy turn up in some odd place.

Lora, have fun with your new treadmill. I would love to have one.

Susan, I could not imagine doing those terminators while pregnant. I guess when I was pregnant cardio was not the thing most women did anyway.

Terri I am glad you had an enjoyable visit with your Dad. I am sure you are all proud of your sons accomplishment. I know I would be.

Nicole, good luck with the Christmas shopping. I finally finished wrapping mine.

Hi Sabrina and Marietta, hope I did not miss anyone
Diane Sue
