CLASSIC/PHASE 3/WEEK 11/DAY 5

Good Morning Girls!

Angie, I bought my BBC set at www.hsn.com but you can also get them straight from www.barrysbootcamp.com. I think they are cheaper on HSN though. ;) It's a set of 5 work outs but you can also get individual ones as far as I know.

Today is Legs and Back/Arx after work.

Have a great day!
BBL. :)
 
Good morning gang:

I have circuit class again tonight, so I'm cooking up a few changes to keep it fresh }( }( }( I have step class tomorrow, but Friday I will get back into the X rotation until next Monday. Whew. . . once April is over I will be doing the X and running - can't wait!! I miss it so much when I don't get it in, but it would be too much right now for me with my classes that I'm teaching.

Thanks for the website, Wendy, I'm going to check them out and see if it's another set I can't live without ;-) What are they like?

Have a great day!
Marcia.

30 min weights, 20 mins cardio (choice of TM or floor)=50 min work out. The production/sound quality is quite poor in comparison to Cathe's but that is something I can live with if the work out is good! I've only done the Butt and Legs weight work so far. It's definately endurance work and it is KILLER! The non TM cardio is alot of high impact, heat pumping moves. No choreography to learn. They do a stretch between the weight work and cardio but there is no cool down or stretch after the cardio. That peeved me a little but I am also capable of cooling down and stretching out myself so I can deal. All in all I think they will be worth the $. I am glad I purchased them. I plan on doing a BBC rotation after the X is done. HTH some!:)
 
Morning Ladies ..
(Phase 3 - week 13 - recovery - classic)

I am sore from the Core torture class ..:eek: .. my abs and back and legs .. I do plyos in my class w/this and I was sweating like a maniac ..had 2 new students that said they would not be able to move today .. }(

Today is leg work in the gym .. then ARX afterwards .. then tonight is either a power walk or cardio/kickboxing .. it is killer heat out there for some reason .. yesterday was 88 degrees and humid .. yuck!

I think I am going to order BBC too .. have been putting it off ...but sounds like fun .. and I have been wanting a good TM workout .. although I am sure it won't be like Cardio coach .. I LOVE CC ..

Feel the PMS monster rearing his ugly head ... kinda ill and feeling fat .. and work has been a night mare ... crazy people out there .. maybe today will be better ..

Hope all of you have a great day .. will check back later for personals!! :7
 
Hey girls -

Just checkin' in. I hope everyone is doing well. It's another gorgeous day here in NY. It's a better day than yesterday as it's a bit cooler and just wonderful. You know the weather that makes you feel ALIVE.

So...I never did get to workout last night. It was too late and I had so much else to do. Tonight I'm meeting friends for dinner (why is everything always around food?) at 6:30. So, I'll be running home, showering, etc. and running back out the door. ARRGGHH!! I tried to get them to meet at 8 but no go.

Okay, have a great evening!:)

I changed my mind and opted for a rest day today. I think the last of this cold is makin' me more tired then usual. It's okay though cause this rest day puts me back on track w/my original X schedule so I won't get confused anymore about what I have to do! LOL

I am leaving in 20 mins to meet an old friend for coffee. I only get to see this guy about once every year or so I'm uber excited to hang with him for a bit!

Have a great evening ladies!:)
 
Hi ladies,

Its been a busy day. I did get in Imax 3 this morning. 2 of my boys had physicals today, then we went to kohl's for some shoes etc. It's 4pm and I just fed my kids lunch, better late than never, right!

Wendy-hope your day is going well. I keep looking at BBC but haven't bit the bullet yet. We are following a pretty strict budget so we can be completely out of debt in 8 years. I can hardly wait. :) We do budget for sports which includes my workouts, equipment as well as my son's football, basketball & baseball.

Marcia-so glad your classed like the new circuit routine you had for them! You and Laura amaze me.

Laura-Thanks again for the info I requested. I'm also going to add a kickbox and lowmax once a week and see how it goes. Where do you get your energy?????

Nancy-No worrries, sometimes life gets in the way of our workouts. "Do your best and forget the rest" I'm sure you've heard that before :)

The weather here is just beautiful. Hope everyone is having a great day.

Diana
 
Oh Diana...I envy your will power girl! I would LOVE to be competely debt free some day but I admit that I doubt it will ever happen. I love to shop too much and I am too impatient to wait until I have the cash all of the time to buy things!

CHAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGE IIIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!!}( ;) :+ :p
 
Hi girls

I did BB & ARX today. I love the biceps workout. I think I could do the hammer curls all day long! I love the pump they leave in the arms.

I did IMAX3 yesterday down in the basement. It's always cooler down there and sometimes just downright cold, so I don't sweat near as much. But, I have lots more room to move so I could really open it up. I finally got that darn step segment to #9 down. I must have repeated that segment 4 times yesterday....but I have it now!!}( My HRM said I burned 600 calories - I find that difficult to believe, but I'm sure it was up there. It seemed like so much more fun doing it down there in my own little world. I got a new DVD and VHS player for downstairs so I can move all my exercise stuff down there and workout strictly in the basement now. I should've done this a long time ago.:)

Wendy - Thanks for the info on BBC. I have the day off work tomorrow so I'm sure I'll be checkin it out. When you say choice of TM - what does TM mean? I know you're gonna tell me and then I'll be like duh - but for the life of me I'm too brain dead tonight to figure it out:7 Hope you enjoyed your rest day.:)

Marcia - Another class? Wow - you go girl! I'm glad you're having such a fun time with it.

Laura - Your weather sounds horrible:-( I hate hot and humid weather - unfortunately I think we're all gonna be seeing a lot more of it. It is way too early for this.
Shame on you for inflicting torture on your students:p One of these days you're gonna have a class with nobody in it....LOL

Nancy - Ahhhh don't feel bad about missing some workouts. Sometimes life just gets in the way. When I go out to dinner with friends, it's not usually the food that does me in but the drinks;-)

Diana - I'll bet you're glad you got IMAX3 out of the way in the morning. Sounds like you had a busy day on tap. Maybe you can put the BBC series on your wish list for B-day or X-mas? That would be an awesome gift!! I know some people think that giving exercise stuff for a gift is tacky, but I would love to receive exercise stuff! I guess it just depends on whether or not the person asked for it or not.

Check ya all later

Just got back from circuit training, the class was sweating up a storm, AGAIN }( I LOVE IT! I used two risers this time since the ratio is 3.5 minutes step 1.5 minutes toning, so I figured I'd really push myself for those 3.5 minutes of step and man did I ever. I couldn't talk some of the time.....whew......!:+ We finished with abs and planks. They'll sleep good tonight. Tomorrow I will teach just step to give them a little change up from circuit training.

I hope everyone has a great night! I will try to get personals in tomorrow. I read everyone's all the time, but just can't get the time to write all the time. (I know, bad excuse :-( )

Oh, are new Sleep Number Bed is being delivered tomorrow!!!! I can't wait, maybe just maybe, my body will feel like doing something in the morning again after I finally get a good night's sleep. *fingers crossed* :)

Ok - time to help DS with what's left of his homework if he needs it and head off to bed.

Marcia.
