Today I have so many things that I need to get done before I leave to pick up grandchildren from school at 2. It took so long yesterday. I need to hit Sprouts as I forgot a couple of things yesterday. I hate when I do that!
I did Cathe Live Advanced Step Choreography again, 50 minutes, 320 calories, heart rate 148 average, 174 max, 4,315 steps. For me this one is pretty easy to follow since I have been doing Cathe Step for years. I like that she gets off the step part of the time. I did go a little less impact for the power moves to be careful. I did not have a problem with it last time though. I am going to have to get some stretching in tomorrow when I don't have to go out. I can tell it has be a few days.
 
Today I did Sole sculpt + SBF TB barre is done.

Diane Sue - good job today.

Doreen - great job today.

That's it for me today. Have a great day and workout, everyone.

Belinda- you were up and at 'em early this morning! Good job.

Nothing yesterday - I shut off my alarm in the middle of the night because I couldn't sleep.

Today was a total body workout by Alexia. I did 3 of the 5 circuits for 40 minutes and then added a cool down. Pretty cardio based this morning.

Today I wanted to try a couple of Cathe Live newer workouts that are not up on the Roku channel, so I drug my laptop upstairs. It dropped out every once in awhile and at the end it just quit playing. I think that it may be my hdmi cable. I Would move it around and could get it back and part of the time it was still playing on the laptop, but the sound was gone. The first workout played fine. I did Kick Butt Boot camp, 36 minutes, 197 calories, 1,216 steps, met 5, heart rate average 114, max 169. I then did the Live Supersets workout from August 2, 54 minutes, met 4.0, 238 calories, 1,009 steps. I finished off with Youtube Sarah Beth yoga hip flesor and hamstring slow stretch 19 minutes, 42 calories. Total time was 1 hour 49 minutes, 477 calories.

I made adjustments on my calories and stuff because Fit Bit was trying to use Map My Fitness for my stats. That can work out okay if it is a cardio workout. Also I don't get the name of the workout in my fitness pal that way. It just says aerobic on it. Funny, after my recent resetting to manufacturer settings on my Samsung Tablet a lot of stuff works differently. I never had my Fit Bit and MFP pick up from MMF before. It was giving me 348 calories for the Super Sets workout. Using weights settings.
 
Belinda, nice work on SB and the abs and getting in a walk today. You really were early getting started.

Doreen, I wanted to shut off the alarm this morning. I did not sleep much. Nice work on the circuit today.
 
Kelly Coffey says she should have a date for the two new dvds shipping soon. I am looking forward to them.
 
Diane Sue - I am too. The premixes she posted look so good!

This morning was a resistance band only workout by Alexia. She said she needs us to have a recovery workout because she has a special challenge planned for tomorrow's challenge Friday. (UH OH) It would be a great travel workout since it just uses bands.
 
Morning,

walk + TB barre is done.

Diane Sue - DH likes to get a walk in before he goes to work. The weather is perfect for walking.

Doreen - have fun with your special challenge tomorrow.

Have a great day, everyone.
 
This morning I did Cathe Live Kick Punch Cardio, 352 calories, heart rate average 128, max 169, 4,141 steps, met 5.9, 55 minutes.

Belinda, a walk together in the morning would be nice. Nice job on the barre workout too.
 
Morning,

JS Concentrated Abs + walk at the river is done.

Diane Sue - great job on your KB live yesterday.

Have a great Friday, everyone.
 
So today's challenge was called the Filthy Fifty. 5 Circuits of 3 exercises each, 50 reps each! This morning I picked a medium weight for the moves and tried to move as quickly as possible so it was rather met-con feeling instead of heavy weight. Some of the moves: Burpee, curl & press, squat and row, hip thruster, bulgarian split squat pick up put down, plank punches, bicycles, etc.

Morning,

walked with DH this morning and did TOTAL BODY GIANT SETS premix # 1 (LB)).

Diane Sue - did you sign up for a year on Cathe Live? Great job as usually.

Doreen - great job with your workout at the park.

That's it for me. I will try to be back later.
 
This morning was a Full Body workout by Alexia Clark. The first two circuits were build as ladder supersets and the next two typical 40/20 circuits. Moves included kettlebell swings, deadlifts, squat jacks, curl and press, renegade rows, pushups, goblet squats. Since it was Monday and I had yesterday as a rest day I tried to go pretty heavy using #45 for swings, 30's for deadlifts, 20 for Curl & Press, 50# for goblet squat, 20# renegade rows.

Also fun find yesterday were two 45# barbells for $30. So now I have regular barbells for stuff instead of just a curl bar and a short bar (like Cathe uses).
 
This morning was Leg Day! Circuit one was 100 reps of hip thrusters. 4 rounds of 10-12 increasing weight each round and then the last round was light weight and rep it out to 100 from however many reps done in the first four. I got to test out my new barbell. It works so much better that my short bar or my curl bar. For one the barbell pad actually fits!

Then I did two other circuits that had the typical stuff, squats, lunges, etc and then some mini band glute work and cardio work.
 
I didn't post yesterday. No workout yesterday. I had a colonoscopy then my daughter bought me breakfast at Panera, took me shopping and bought me a cute dress and sweater in pale pink with black specks in it and a black t shirt, then took me to Chili's for lunch. This was a great birthday after all :) They gave me a couple of birthday cookies after the colonoscopy and thought it was funny that I scheduled it on my birthday. It wasn't intentional though, I forgot it was my birthday when I did it.
My husband sent me some beautiful purple rose and flower bouquet in a purple vase. :)

This morning I did Coffey Fit Raw Fitness Test workout, 38 minutes, heart rate 111 average, 144 max, 201 calories, met 4.8, 1,215 steps. I then did Coffey Fit Raw Bands and Barre, 35 minutes, heart rate average 111 , max 147, met 4.0 154 calories, 1,163 steps. I used 3# ankle weights and for the upper I used the Cathe heavy tubing and sometimes the addition of 8# dumbbells with the tubing. Total time was 73 minutes, calories burned 355.
Coffey Fit Raw test (34 actual minutes, but I paused a couple of times to write down the first round)
I used 15# dumbbells for this since it is the first time. You are supposed to try it once a month to access your fitness gains and try to get more reps in or add more weight. Step or bench, tubing or dumbbells
30 seconds each exercise Kelly says 3 rounds but adds an extra round at the end for 4 rounds.
bench press 15# dumbbells 32,33, 25, 32, reps
push up 19,23,28,22 reps
dumbbell squats 15# dbs 19,22,23,21 reps
prisoner squats 30,32,32,32 reps
shoulder press alternating 15# dbs 24,18,18,24 reps
