July 08 Checkin Thursday 3rd

[Kathy36]

Good morning everyone!!

Thought I would start us off this morning..

Today I am working out with Step, jump & Pump. Hope everyone has a great workout today..

Not much going on for me..Chris needs a haircut and we are going to stop and get some beach toys for the kids to play with on our trip. It is nice when you drive you can take what will fit in the van! The kids are so looking forward to going to the beach as well as Vic and I..Later we will go to the pool for some swimming..

Well, I will be back later to checkin with everyone...Gotta get to that workout!

Hi Kathy and all who follow

Rest Day for me today and after working out hard this week my body is needing it

We went to see Wanted yesterday and I throughly enjoyed it it was a good action flick in my opinion and I love Anjelina Jolie in those type of movies lol plus I absolutely love her back tattoos and told my hubby I wouldn't mind getting a few more as I winked and hinted at him - my back tattoo is lonely lol plus the swirled one around her wrist is awesome - Yes I'm an ink girl


Sushi was yummy but hubby's energy was slowly fading so we called it a night early and bummer he's working tonight on his day off but he gets time and a half for 8 hours and then double time there after.

Hope you all have a great day!

Hey Everyone!

I did 4DS boot camp today -- as filmed. Decided there was a good chance of me flaking out on the cardio if I didn't get it out of the way first. Funny how I don't feel that way with step -- those boot camp drills really get me. When I was writing down my HRM numbers (yes, I'm a total geek that way), I did notice that my numbers from boot camp today nearly match what I had yesterday with that Dove workout (which also matched butts & guts as I mentioned). I think that means it was more of a cardio workout than I thought -- I think I'll just consider those Dove workouts as circuits. What it really tells me though, is that butts & guts really gets my heart rate going!

Hope everyone has a great day!!

Quickie post for me. I'll come back later...

wanted to check in with 4 DS Chest, Shoulders & Tri's. Seriously, it's all I had time for anyways, so I'm glad it was a short workout!!!

I HAVE to post Kiwi's before and after pics..OMG..he's NAKED now! (he went to the groomer today, for the first time).

ok, BYE!

Hi all!! Quickie for me today too. I finished off the summer rotation with Drill Max minus the upper body stuff. Tomorrow is HIS circuit.

Have to run and get my kids from camp...have a great holiday all if I don't get back here.

Chris, Kiwi looks like a different cat!!

Hi Guys!!!

Gosh, what a busy busy day!! We were out alllll day, with one thing or the other. Which was ok, but i got NOTHING done around the house. Ugh.

So , yeah, i eeked in 4 DS CST's. I truly think this heavy lifting is working my body differently. I can FEEL it, Actually , I was still a teeny bit sore/tight from MONDAY's upper body circuit! And my legs have DOMS from GS Floorwork too. Good stuff!

Kathy: Was SJP fun this time around? I really enjoyed it last time i did it! When are you leaving for vaca? And tell me, where are you going again? I do love the beach. We didn't get there last year (we went to the mountains in Vermont), so I miss it and can't wait to get there this year!

Vilma: Now I REALLY want to see "WANTED", even more! Sounds good! Sorry your hubby has to work. I know how it is. I hate the nights Greg goes in too (he works 11:30p - 8:00a). I miss him always, and he's been doing this for YEARS!!

Beth: My HR gets up there for B&G's too! there's some good high intensity lower body moves there!! 4DS BC is tough to think about, but I always get into it when I start it. My favorite drill is when you run around the step twice, and then do the power jumps. My least favorite is those damn fast feet up and down the step. I can only do a few that way, the rest I do at the end of the step, because it freaks me out!

Joanne: You're going to really like HIS Circuit!!

Sooooo... I'm still getting used to Kiwi without his fur. I'm thinking it's going to take a while. He doesn't look like kiwi anymore!!! (but he still acts like him!) I'm glad his matts and his butt are taken care of, but I think from now on, I'll just get him groomed without the haircut. I miss his furriness!

Okya..time for laundry! ACK!

Hey Girls! I hope it is OK if I check in here, not doing the July rotation, but a rotation that FittnessFreak created. Just felt like I needed a jump shot! Summer is more hectic for me that the school year. Don't know why, but it is.....hubby is home more often, Josh has golf tournaments, and lessons, not to mention Twa Kwon Do( he is a black belt)so just more of a schedule conflict with me.

Anyway, would like to check in here since I think I "know" some people "Kathy" . Right now, I am doing a Circuit/endurance rotation that Fitnessfreak created and posted for someone else. Really, I am down to 126lbs, I am 5'2 and I am 55 years old. Ya think I'd be happy? NOOOOO!!!!! I need only 1 count it 1 inch off my waistline in order to get in all my clothes. What a stubborn inch it is!!!!! Well, I am sure hoping Menopause is not the culprint, although I am SURE it is. So wish me luck! My oldest son is getting married the end of August. And.....I bought the "Michelle Obama" dress she wore on the view on ebay, of course not "her" dress the one like it in a size 10 and now it is a might tight in the waist.....thus the one inch. Wish me luck!!!!

Sorry Long........

Hey Deb!! We would love it if you could join our checkin..I am not sure if anyone is doing the July rotation. That is why I took that part off the title..That is awesome weight loss. I hear ya..I would like to get those last 10 pounds off..How exciting about your son getting married! I know you will meet your goal of getting in that dress. When you do, we want to see photos!!!!

Chris: We are going to be leaving Tuesday. We are going to first go to Columbia SC area. Hubby is taking me to the FIRM studios to take a class while he works..Then we are heading up to NC. Vic has a job fair type event at Ft Lajune in jacksonville NC. The family is tagging along so that we can go to the beach when he is done working. I think he said we are going to Moorehead city beach area. oH and yes I did enjoy SJP today. I really felt like I got an excellent workout today. Not sure what I will do tomorrow. I am going to try and figure that out before tonight so that I don't waste time tomorrow. Some sort of cardio though..
