Morning Ladies -

This morning I only had time for a 45 minute workout again due to working the early shift for a doctor appt. I did TLP Dynamic Strength and Power. Tomorrow I finish off my week of Slim Training.

Hi to everyone. I'll try to check in later (if my boss leaves for a minute). Have great workouts.
 
Hi Everyone,

I am doing a run and a SS workout and ctx BSB. I know they say the SS workouts can get boring but they are still so new to me that I am really enjoying doing them. Especially when I see the hips and thighs losing the bulkiness and this is only my 5th day. Of course I had stopped liftinf heavy for lower body a few weeks ago. Yet it wasn't until I did these that I had doms in thighs and hips! Uh Oh I think Nicole and I are starting to sound like an infomercial :)

Diane Sue-I am glad to hear Bill is doing well. You are doing good to get his gifts in the mail.
Marietta-So have we got you intersted in SS too :)
Sabrina-I dreamnt about you doing a levitation hold! Weird I know:)
Susan-Let us know what you hear at your next doc appt. ARe you still thinking it's a boy?
Lora-How did your boss react when you told her what you had heard?
Nicole-Which SS are you doing today?
Dallas-Were your tops from VS? They have some really cute stuff in there holiday catalogue. I could go crazy with VS but I am waiting unril it goes on sale.

I will be back later. Hope you all have a great day

Hello Everyone,
Today I plan on doing mix it up. (I think it hits upper body more???) Last night we had a Tornado warning so we all camped out in the basement!! It was rather fun. The kids had a blast. Dh is out of town and even if he were home I know he would not have slept down there with us ha ha.

Lora who does seether sound like? I have been switching around my music or should I say my dd's ha ha. We went and bought Madonna's new cd, and I can't wait to do my workout to that today!! It's dancy stuff.

Terri I am HAPPY I am not the only one:7 Have you found that your hamstrings are tight? I did A LOT of hamstring stretch's yesterday (Per Marietta), and I can't get over how tight they were (they are looser now) I will continue to stretch them througout the day as I clean my house!! I really like how ALL these workouts work the lower body.

Dallas do you have one of those dance mats already?

Well gotta go!!

Terri - Both my mother and my husband were shocked that I actually told my boss this, but I'm a very honest, up front and down to earth person and I got the feeling she was starting to like me (a little). I don't want to speak too soon. My intuition was telling me though. She said she knows she has quite a reputation and she is by the book and expects you to do your job (and keep up with her), but she laughed and said don't tell them anything....let them wonder....as she thinks we're getting along fine. (for now - that's me saying that part - cuz I hear her screaming at yelling at employees on the phone daily - my husband says maybe they need to be yelled at) LOL!

Nicole - Seether is a real "hard rock" band and they sound a bit like Nirvana but a bit heavier. I really like hard rock.
 
Morning ladies

I cannot believe how cold it is out! We have some snow floating around out there.

Terri-LOL!! That gave me a chuckle this morning. I LOVE the stuff from VS too. I have bought several things from there lately. I got a couple pairs of the Pink pants. Sweatpants and lounge pants (they have colorful stripes) and I love them. The sweatpants actually fit me well (I think they are suppose to be shorter in length on everyone but on me they fit just right). haha I bought some of the tops too. Very comfy!!

Souns like several of you ladies are enjoying the Slim Series! The infomercial is working on me. I might just have to get the series! lol! :D

Nicole-glad your family had a nice time in the basement. :)

Lora-glad you boss seemed ok when you told her.

Since it is chilly out I am going to try and get some reading done today. I am hoping I can get my youngest interested in the babysitter (TV) for a while. hehe That babysitter comes in handy sometimes. Sorry for the long post.

Have a great day!! I will be back later!!
 
Hi guys,

Today I did PS Legs and Super Sets Lower body blast.

Lora, that's great that you and your new boss are getting along well.

Terri, are you on VS email list? They send emails of sales all the time, so you're not overwhelmed with all the catalogs they send out.

Nicole, how comfortable was the basement last night? I might get the one DVD you mentioned yesterday. I'm sorry, I deleted the website you gave me to purchase. I wonder if it might be good to start with after the baby. After my son, I started with MIS/MIC.

Sabrina, we're actually having warmer than usual weather today. It's in the mid 60's! I'm in upstate NY.

Hi everyone else, I'll be back later.

Good Morning Ladies!!

This morning I did a two mile hill run on my treadmill and then I did PUB. I'm thinking I'll do the elliptical at lunch today. My running buddy isn't here today and I'm not in the mood to run by myself. I work downtown and it's pretty safe, but there are some crazies out there.

Lora - Sounds like your job is going well. Hope it stays that way. I think it's good to be up front with people, that way they know where you're coming from and you don't have to beat around the bush.

Terri - Yeah, you Lora, and Nicole have got me very curious. Good thing I've been really busy at work and haven't really had the time to look into it too much...we'll see how long I can hold out.

Nicole - Tornado in November?! Isn't the weather crazy?? My DD has one of those dance mats...it is a lot of fun.

Sabrina - It's cold here too!! It just sorta creeped up on us...it had been unseasonably warm...but I guess it's supposed to be this way afterall it is November.

Susan - So Nicole, Terri and Lora have you interested in this Slim Series too huh? Are you gonna get some?

I've gotta go...Have a great day. Hi to all that follow...

Good Morning All!

It's snowing! It's just a light snow, but I can see it on the deck. My ds2 said, "It's raining snow." He stood by the window while I did breakfast dishes.

Today I did MM minus the biceps. Mine still hurt to the touch from PUB.}( I'll add that on to tomorrow's workout. I added a 3 mile run on the treadmill. I had to keep it short because the heating guy had to come back again for the humidifier.x(

Terri ~ I actually ordered my shirts from anntaylorloft.com. The store didn't have my size. Here's the links:

http://www.anntaylorloft.com/atlOut...&Merchant_Id=1&Section_Id=18&Product_Id=59220

I think that they are cuter in person. I tried on my cream colored pants to go with the black top and they are too big! So, I have to go find a size 2. :7 I wonder which rotation is responsible for that? I'll take it! I like VS too, but I got a good deal on these because I had reward points.

Nicole ~ How is Madonna's new CD? That would be good music for a workout. She's in amazing shape. Did you listen to the new CD from Big Beat Productions? I didn't care for it. I thought it was going to be music from the Hardcores. I saw those t-warning last night and thought of you.

Lora ~ Glad your getting along well with your boss. I called Collage because I'm returning Core Secrets and I asked the girl about the Jillian KB and she said that she felt the workout was unsafe if you didn't know what you were doing. Interesting. I had asked about a DVD comparable to Core Max and she said there isn't one. She said if you're doing Cathe, she's hard to beat. We know that already, right? :7 Of course, I'm very interested in SS.

Susan ~ I always liked when you could feel/see the baby moving! My two older kids were not as impressed. LOL! They were actually grossed out.

Diane Sue ~ What kind of Bow Flex system do you have? My dh is interested in getting something for the workout room. We had a Parabody cable system that he recently gave to an employee.

Sabrina ~ The TV comes in handy when it's shower time! Good luck with your reading.

Marietta ~ Oh please, share your treadmill hill run. I've done CC a few times. I wonder if it's similar.

Have a great day everyone! Sorry so long!

Ok ladies, you are a bad influence!! LOL!!!

I just bought the Slim Series and Turbo Jam from Beachbody. I got 20% off and then I also saved $5. hehehe Merry Christmas to me!!!!
 
Woo hoo! I just got two Jillian workouts today from my UPS man, Shape up-front and Shape up-backside. Now I only have two others to wait on. :)
 
Hey again,

Dallas, I had a Bowflex for a little while. My husband sold it. I liked it a lot... I'd always be impressed with the weights I used (diff. from free weights). He didn't like it. He's very "old school" and liked real (metal) barbells and dumbbells. Plus the bench is not as sturdy as a gym quality weight bench.
Why are you returning Core Secrets? Man, to look like Brooke Burke. hahaha I tried one of Jillian's workouts. It's super easy and very short. It's strange, I felt kind of "weird" one time the baby moves and I saw a lump roll across my ab. area. It's sometimes hard to fathom that's a live person in there.

Marietta, I'm still not sure about the Slim Series. I love heavy weights. I used to love squatting at the gym, taking the bar off the rack and my legs would be shaking before doing the first rep. Yeah-Baby!

I'll be back tomorrow. Is everyone enjoying the lovely weather? It's down pouring here now and the temperature dropped about 20 degrees.

Susan C.M.
 
It's cold here too....it's dry though. I think it is supposed to drop to 17 degrees tonight...Brrrrrrrrrrrr!!!


Susan - Tell the baby I said....WHATS UP!!!!!!!!!!!

Sabrina - You are quite the workout purchaser these days. Let us know how you like your new workouts.

Good evening
I had a peridontist appointment for torture today so am checking in late. I also watched my grandson till time to leave because he was home sick. It is cold here to. We have been spoiled with such beautiful weather.
Today I did KM w/u and cardio, KPC high intensity drills and combo#1, S&H Chest and Back no w/u, KPC abs, Core Max #1 and KPC st.

Dallas I have the Power Pro Bowflex. I have had mine for several years now.

Susan my DH didn't care for the Bowflex to much either. He likes weights better. It does take a little getting used to as it has a different feel. Just like the dyna bands have a different feel. I love the heavy weights too.

Lora I am glad you are doing well at work and getting along with your boss.

Hi to everyone else

Hi Ladies,

I had a busy day today as one of my employees was an hour and a half late so I had to go pitch in to get the schedule caught up. Needless to say I was fuming inside but held my tongue with her. I don't need anyone quiting right before the holidays! Anyway i did get all my working out in so othat is good!

Diane Sue-what a great mich mosh you did:)
Sabrina-Yippeeeee you are joining the SS band wagon with us.
Susan-I think you will like these but do what you feel is best for you. I am a cardio freak and a heavier lifter for upperbody so I do have longer workout hours during the day getting all this in. I will eventually cut the SS down to everyday but for now I am liing the results.
Dallas-Did my son get back to you? By the way I like your tops and congrats on the size decrease:)
Marietta-You are always an inspiration with all the stuff you do. Just wanted to tell you that :)
Lora-Hope your day went well
Micole-Which workout you doing tomoorow?
