I did DM today & used the purple band instead of the green one. Wow, what a difference! Yeah, my legs were totally on fire.

Oh & the scapular retractions were actually challenging this time around! :)

I can't wait to try this! The only B&G in my rotation this week was a premix that didn't include the FWs!
 
RE: NOW I understand the

Uuuummm, my legs are on fire just using the green band. I guess there is a goal that I can set for 2007, I have to catch up to Laura and do the firewalkers with the purple band that is still unopened in my drawer :) - oh no, it WILL hurt!

Have a terrific day!

Laura,

Where did you buy your band? Mine snapped in half the other day when I did LIC!!!!!!!!!

Oh jeez I don't remember, I think it was fwonline.com but not sure.

Just don't make the mistake I did--I got 3 foot long bands instead of 6 foot. I think it makes it a little more difficult b/c I'm stretching that darn thing as far as it can go. And for you Christine, a 3 foot band would be completely useless LOL.

I can't believe yours snapped--did it hurt?

LauraMax,: just wait until you do Butts & Guts Leg Blast premix, OMG, it’s tough! I did it this morning, And you WILL actually do the fire walkers 2x and walking lunges 4x hello!! x( :p :p

Ummmm, I don't have B&G.......

Those walking lunges in DM are making me nuts. I barely have the room without the tree. This morning I had to take out one lateral raise with each pass b/c I kept knocking ornaments off my tree.
 
RE: NOW I understand the

LOL Catherine! I doubt I'll be adding it to my collection--my leg routine at the gym really kicks my butt (I mean REALLY), & I don't foresee being able to get all the required equipment for B&G anytime soon.

But I am trying Circuit Max for the first time on Saturday, so wish me luck! :)
 
RE: NOW I understand the

I tried the purple with B&G last week....YEOW!!!....so how long until I try the silver one....http://smilies.sofrayt.com/eng/no-no.gif[/img]
 
RE: NOW I understand the

I have done these 2x in my class this week and they burned while doing them but to my surprise I was not sore the next day. I could tell I worked my legs but no hurting when I squated down or anything. I even did wall sits,walking lunges,hamstring curls etc.... I think my legs from this class are getting stronger and I am not getting sore as easily as I use to. I used the purple bands as well. I hope though if I do them enough they will help tighten up the sides of my butt!!!
 
RE: NOW I understand the

I used the purple band in DM yesterday and whoooo wheeee. My legs and back and are talkin' to me, baby. I'm asscurred of the silver one even though I have it!

Yeah I'm not sore today at all in my legs. My back is sore, I think from using the purple band in the first drill, but that's it.

There's a silver band? Uh oh! :eek:
 
RE: NOW I understand the

Firewalkers are one of those exercises where I have to assist myself up after the set is over, like an old fogey.
