Hardcore Rotation Checkin for Tues Jan 10

lorajc

Cathlete
Morning Ladies -

This morning I did Get Ready Step, Go by Kelly Coffey. Did I mention Kelly has killer legs last time I did this? I think I did.....cuz she does. Must be all of those plyo's. Again, the only complaint I have with this DVD is there is hardly any stretch at the end.

Have great workouts everyone and I'll check back later.
 
Hi Again - Sorry - I was in a hurry this morning when I posted. I just wanted to say.....that my prayers are with you Dallas for your relative. Also, sorry to those who are under the weather.

Boy - I'm really getting out of the habit of doing Cathe rotations. I feel a fat loss rotation looming in the near future for me....but now probably not until after I get my Push stuff to try.
 
Good Morning,

Last night when I got home from work, I decided to scrap the ice off my driveway....and felt GREAT! I went inside and then did TLT-BBBB with my Jolies and 4# med. ball. I followed Stephanie. I did all but the planks! Even the "big girl" push ups.

This morning still feeling very strong, I did GS Chest (I did ALL 72 push ups!)only a few on my knees. I was able to use my pre-pregnancy weights with no problems. I followed with GS Shoulders and was able to match Cathe's weight (except for the third set of presses).
I then did 100 walking lunges with 5# db's. :D
I wish I didn't have to be at work right now, I feel like I should RUN!! hahaha

Dallas, any more updates on your nephew? It's not fair for a three month old to have problems. Is this the baby you had posted pictures of recently?

Lora, I could NEVER stay away from Cathe as long as you have. But at least you're getting in good workouts. I'm looking forward to her new DVD's. I'm guessing we'll get them around late Spring/early Summer.

Hi to everyone, I'll be back later.

Dallas, I just noticed you posted late last night. I'm so glad your nephew is doing better and he gets to go home soon.

Marietta, Yes, I had a c-section with Justin. He was also breech.

Can someone please post a link for the jolie weights again. I think I'm going to get them. My foot has been feeling better. I think I can handle them now.

Do they really add intensity to your workouts? Do they make your heartrate elevate higher?
 
Good Morning All!

Thanks Lora, Susan and everyone here for the thoughts and prayers for my sister and her son. I posted last night that the surgery went fine. I talked to my sister last night and she said he was born with this and that it's usually found sooner. The poor baby couldn't breathe because everything was pushed up into his lung cavity. Yes, that's the little cutie in the pictures I posted. I really feel for my sister right now with our mom being gone. It's times like these especially when you just want to call mom.:-(

Well, since I was on the phone late last night with my sister, I couldn't get up to workout. I did Cool It Off last night. The was a nice hour stretch. My back and hamstrings were especially tight. I'm not sure what I'll do today. I'm thinking just cardio and more stretching. Well, see when I get down there.

Lora ~ You have me really interested in that step workout.

Susan ~ Awesome workout! Are you sure you're pregnant!;-) LOL!

Hi to all who follow.

Dallas

ETA: Susan, we posted at the same time.:)
 
Hi Ladies,

Well today is kickmax and I forget whta else ctahe has on the roation. I must admit kickmax is not my favorite but hey I will do it. Later today I will do Shape it up using my jollie weights.

Lora-Now I am interested in Kelley workouts too! What is a girl to do?!
Susan-I hope all goes well on the 31st and I am so anxious for you to have the baby. Can't wait to see the pics.
Dalls-I am happy that your nephew is doing better and will be fine. That must have been very scary for the whole family.
Sabrina-Where are you and what is going on with you? ARe things going better
Marietta-Thanks so much for the upbeat e-mail yesterday:) It really helped me.
Nicole-are you feeling better?
Diane Sue-How about you are you doing better?

Hey ladies can you all say a prayer for my son today? He has a great interview at 2 pm today. Thsi will be perfect for him and the money is VERY good. !0 dollars more then he made at tthe job he got laid off and he was making good money there! His gf is getting ready to go through 5 weeks of radiation therapy for the scond tumor on her neck and this job would be a blessing for them! Ok Off to workout! Thanks to all of you for being such a great upbeat friendly, supportive group!

Terri
 
Terri ~ Good luck to your son on his interview! Let us know what happens. I'll keep them both in my prayers.

Dallas
 
Good Morning!

I'll make this quick because I have a meeting to go to.

This morning I did IMAX 2...I'm going to get in a really good leg workout at lunch today.

Dallas - So glad you nephew is doing better...that is great news!! I would LOVE to work in a gym and if they paid enough, I surely would. You know, I have the SS/PP DVD and I don't like it very much at all. I really wouldn't recommend it to you...I know others will say differently, but that's how I honestly feel.

Lora - I am probably going to order the Coffey DVDs at the end of the week...Glad your foot is better!!

Susan - I'm with Dallas...are you sure you're pregnant!! I thought I was doing something when I was pregnant, but I've got nothing on you!! Heck, I've got nothing on you now!!!

Terri - You seem more upbeat today and guess what?? That makes me very happy. Keep me posted okay? I'm not crazy about Kick Max either...but like you, I'll do it if I have to.

I'll be back to check on you guys later...

Morning ladies!

Lora-You sure do get in some great workouts. I have thought about getting those jolie weights too. Let me know if you decide to.

Susan-You impress me with all the great workouts you get in while being pregnant. I don't believe I ever did that well. lol! My third(& final) son was breech and a month early so I had to have a c-section. The doctor tried to turn him around and boy was my stomach bruised after that.

Terri-I am here and things are going ok. Thanks for asking. Still trying to get some clients. I work again in the office tomorrow. I will have lots of good thoughts for you som and his girlfriend. Hope everything turns out well. Let us know.

Dallas-I emailed you.

Marietta-Hope your meeting is interesting! lol I hope you get in your leg workout at lunch!

Hi Diane Sue and Nicole!

Have a great day! I will be back!
 
Hello Everyone,
Today I am going to take it easy. Still not feeling that good.

Dallas you are so RIGHT. Mom's can't get sick!! Yesterday my DD12 was such a big help. Made breakfast for the other kids, and then I had them all take the bus in am. Then Dh came home early, and made quite a supper, but the smell only got me sick :p Reminded back of the time when I was pregnant:7

Lora I don't know what is it about the jolie weights, but I just really think they are nice for a added bonus. They are great to use with the TLT's, and SS's.

Dallas I am so happy to hear you newphew is doing well. You had me so worried about the menigitis. Just happy to hear they could fix the little guy up, and now he is going to feel so much better!!

Terri Oh I hope your son does get the job!! Sending prayers his way, and for his gf to !! Is this her first round of radiation??

Diane Sue hope you got your voice back:D

Susan do you really think we won't see Cathes dvds until summer?

Hey Marietta, Sabrina:D

~Nicole
 
Lora, the Jolies only weigh one pound each, but they make a difference. They sit on top of your shoelaces, so they feel comfortable, unlike ankle weights would (if you are doing cardio).

Nicole, If I recall the timeline for the Hardcores correctly, Cathe announced the filming in June 2004 and we started to see pics during the filming in November and we received them in February 2005. Now, if she is injured, filming may not start until (I'm guessing) March. By the time editing, reproducing and shipping takes place for four dvd's, I'm just guessing it will be about June before we receive them. I have too much time on my hands and I think and analyze a lot of things, so of course this was one of them.
I hope you start to feel better today.

Dallas, are you considering purchasing the SS/PP dvd? I REALLY like SS. In fact in Cathe's questionnaire, I ranked this as my second favorite w/o. PP starts out challenging, then peters off since you dont really use weights and it's pretty easy.
I wonder if I like Cathe so much that I feel every dvd she has put out is great, so my opinon **may** be biased.

Terri, let us know how your son makes out today!

Evening ladies!

I am having white chicken chili for supper and I cannot wait. I bought some from Ruby Tuesdays and I am having it tonight for supper. I bought a large bag of it and had it in the freezer. LOL!

What is everyone up to this evening? I am thinking I should get in the groove and get back into working out like I should. I am having a hard time getting back into it. I am going to have to just make myself. What do you ladies do when you get in this rut? Or do you get in this rut? I think some nice weather would help, I hate being cold.

I will be back later!
 
Sabrina-I love that chili from rubys tuesdays! I didn't know you could buy it by the bag! As far as wether goes ours has been way too warm for this time of year so I would be happy to send some your way:) As for the rut I say just do a little each day until you get back into it!

Thanks ladies for wishing my son luck. I have yet to hear from him and his interview started 2 hours ago. I hope that is a good sign! Marietta and Dallas I got your e-mails and will write back tomorrow or later. I am going out to a movie with some friends!

Terri
 
Hi Ladies!

Just thought I would check back in before I leave work...it's been an okay day. I am going to my DD14's basketball game when I leave here so that should be fun!!

Sabrina - I'm a sick person who never gets into an exercise rut...probably because it has been more of a habit to me than just something that I do. I compare my workout habits to one of a coffee drinker that has to have their fix each morning...so I really don't miss unless I have to.

But I do understand your circumstances and you really had no choice. I'm sure if I were in your position I would have had to give up my workouts as well. So with that said...you are going to have to just do it until it becomes a regular part of your routine again. Try to figure out a consistent time of day or plan a week ahead to determine when you can get your workouts it...make sense? It will all come back to you real soon...

Terri - Enjoy your movie...let us know what you see. Can't wait to hear about your son!

Hi Diane Sue!!

Good night all...
