Hardcore Rotation Checkin for Saturday Oct 29

Hi Everyone -

This morning I did I couldn't bring myself to take a total rest day, as my depression got the best of me yesterday and I indulged in some chocolate. I think my brain needed the dopamine. I was craving chocolate something fierce. I did an easy workout...Fitprime Fast Cheetah with Kimberly Spreen. It was a fairly easy workout. I then did Total Body Stretch on the Ball.

Nicole - I'd have to say that my best recent DVD purchases are TurboJam cuz their so uplifting and I really like the first 2 Power 90 Masters, but I really want the ones for upper body (the first 2 were Core and Legs). I also love my TLP's cuz they're totally different than anything else and work your body a totally different way. I like to do them every once in a while for a change. I've also been happy with the YBB ones, but with both YBB and TurboJam, if you're not willing to be a little goofy and have fun with the moves (and be able to laugh at yourself), you won't enjoy them. I would never want anyone to see me do them, but it's good to let the kid out inside of you sometimes and not care what you look like. I'm sure I just painted a real pretty picture NOT!

Have great workouts everyone ....or rest days.

I'm almost done with my antibiotics and this cyst isn't gone yet. I'm going to have to call the doctor on Monday. I don't know what he's going to do next.
 
Hi Lora-5:20 am here and I could not sleep. Went to bed at 1 am:( I am going to try and go back to sleep after I read a few threads. I got Jullian front workout from netflix yesterday. I previewed about 10 minutes of it. What I have seen so far does not impress me. I find her irritating1 Do you feel that way lora? She is very much a bootcamp style with less style and intensity :) Today I forget what is onmy rotation. I will look here in a few minutes. Whatever it is you know I will do more! Sorry to hear the cyst isn't going away:( Also don't beat yourself up over the chocolate. It happens!

Nicole. Thanks for asking about my sons band. They play rock but not hardcore or heavy metal. I will get you a link that will let you listen to some mp3's and has pics.
Diane Sue-I am glad you are having a nice visit with your dad
Sabrina-How did the halloween party go?
Susan, Dallas, Marietta-Have a great weekend! I will check back either after I get my workots in or before :)

I hope I get some rest before tonight!

Terri
 
Terri HI!

I'm glad you wrote about your sons band again. I had the website before and my daughter (14) and I both listened to some of the music and we both loved it! I wanted to buy her the CD for Christmas and I lost the website! Could you please tell us what it is again??

Many thanks!
How is he doing these days??

Take care and I hope you can get back to sleep!
 
Hello Everyone,
Today I plan on doing one of my Imaxes and biceps or triceps not sure I will have to look at the rotation???

Terri that would be GREAT!! Becky you have me excited I will have to give it to my dd12 for xmas. I can tell her hey I work out with his mom everyday :7 ha ha

Lora thanks so much the information on the turbo jams. I think I will wait a bit because it sounds like BB is putting 5 TJ workouts on 1 dvd :D I have really been wanting to get Tracey longs core foundations, but am waiting until she puts it on a dvd? (not dvd-r)

Terri just from reading everything about the Jillian workouts don't have me interested in them either. Hey does netflix have any Slim Series workouts??? I think you may like Debbie Siebers??? Good luck, and isn't it GREAT that you can now netflix before you buy something:7

Sabrina I am ALWAYS CLEANING:7 How about you?? I think US girls should pick a day from the book and get back to it??? Hey maybe we could pick one day and work on it all that week??? Btw the other day I did get some carpets cleaned ;-)

Dallas how can you say you did not get a workout in the other day. Heck I say carving pumpkins is :D

Marietta how many friends do you run with?? I think that is good yyou don't have to run alone!!

Diane Sue good to hear you are having a good time with your dad and grandkids. Btw how is are Bill doing???

Take care,
~Nicole
 
Hi guys,

I didn’t check in yesterday. I had to take the day off. This congestion is so bad! My dr. said yesterday to see my Primary (ya know, the one who had tried to kill me a couple times?) Well, I did call to make an apt. since it's really that bad. They said there is nothing they can do and won't see me, since I'm pregnant. My head feels like it could explode! The pain and discomfort is unbearable, I want to cry (and that's not like me).

This morning I walked on my treadmill for 30 minutes (1.5 miles) then did L&G Extreme Premix.

Nicole, I checked Netflix, they don’t carry anything from Debbie Siebers.

Terri, congrats. on your sons CD release.

Marietta, I bet running with others makes it so you push yourself harder.

Have a good weekend everyone; don’t forget to turn your clocks tonight!

Susan
 
Susan - I'm sorry you're so congested. I know how bad that is. I have really bad sinuses and I'm prone to infections and get really bad sinus headaches. It can be miserable. I'm sorry you have to suffer.

Terri - I hope you can sleep tonight. Good luck with your son's CD. I love rock....although I tend to like the "heavy" stuff too. How long has he been in a band? Also, as far as Jillian, she really doesn't get on my nerves much, but I tend to like a lot of different personalities. Her voice is kind of squeaky and she does act like the workout is a lot tougher than it is. That gets to me a little bit, but most of the time I'm okay with her. I agree that I think you would like Debbie Siebers, although I'm not sure if the "fun factor" will be there for you with her. Her workouts can get boring and repetitive. Cathe really does spoil us, but even though I like her so much, I still need variety in my routine, so I'm pretty open minded.

Nicole & all of the Cleaning Ladies - Please give me some tips on getting over the overwhemlmed feeling I have when I think of everything that needs done around here. I don't know where to begin. It's gotten so cluttered around here, cuz I'm usually always working and have no time to do anything. Now that I'm home, besides being depressed, I'm totally overwhelmed whenever I think about what needs done that it paralyzes me. Help ...please??
 
Susan-Thanks for the congrats on my son. I am so sorry you are not feeling better yet. Maybe another rest day would help. Stay in bed and relax. I know it's hard to do and I am not one who should be giving that advice as I coan't ever do it. But you have the baby to think of. Anyway I wish you well and will pray for a speedy recovery for you! You are in my thought.

Lora-I am going to do the Jillian work out here shortly and I will let ya know after I actually do it what I think. For the cleaning you really should get the book that Nicole has us all hooked on. It is only ten bucks...though I know that may seem like a lot when you don't have a job. I would be happy to loan you mine if it will help you. Let me know :)

Nicole-I will look and see if Debbie Siebers is oin netflix list. That would be cool to try her as well. I am with lora on thinking a change now and then is good.

Terri
 
Lora you are Soooooooo. right Cathe does spoil us:7 But I do have to say I really enjoy Debbies personaility, and it is kind of nice to not have to pull out the gym to workout ha ha. I like having those no brainer exercises ha ha. (Also you can put your own music on and go to town with the HIGH REPS (I mean a lot of reps) and low weight.


As I mentioned before I have a friend that RUNS all the time, and she had a routine a trainer gave her to do for her upper body that she did everyother day. Well I loaned her my SS dvds, and after a 2 weeks of doing them she ordered her own set and she said she noticed a BIG difference and lost 3 lbs that she could not shed (I did not think she needed to lose any she is already thin) But I did notice her arms and chest got very defined.

When I talked to her a month ago. She told me she pretty much just use's the one dvd "tear it up" She will do parts of thst dvd and then go run. But I do have to say I can't believe how can she workout to one dvd for like almost 3 years:eek:

Susan I have seen that they sell some of the Slim series workouts on dvd at Target. You do not want Slim is 6 that would be to easy for you. Also if I were you I would call your ob and tell him your primary will not treat you because of your pregnancy. Also I think you should LAY around ALL weekend on the crouch and REST!!! Do you hear me????? Have that husband wait on you;) I will do your workout for you ha ha.


Lora I can give you only one answer for you........ FLYLADY...... http://www.flylady.net/index.asp Go there today I think she can help you.



Sorry so long, but hey it's the weekend:7

~Nicole
 
Nicole-can you tell me what workots exactly from slim in six you do? I would love to give them a try!

Thanks

Terri
