Good Morning Ladies,

I got up early this morning and after this cup of coffee, I'm headed to the basement for bodymax (original) step and circuits. Lunch is shoulders, biceps and abs. My bootcamp instructor is offering another bootcamp class tonight so I will be going to that.

Wendy-glad you're able to walk normally again. You really know those legs and glutes were hit hard when it affects your walking comfort.

I'll check back when I get to work and see what everyone else is up to.

TGIF

Morning Ladies ...

.... yessss .. my class paid for my ice cream treat! I always forget how hard kickboxing is when I don't do it for a while .. and after BBC shoulder workout at lunch the downward dogs and pushups were TOUGH!!! but it was a great workout .. have some DOMS in the abdomen and back .. but other than that I am feeling great!

.. I have this one student .. she is young .. and SOOOOOOO uncoordinated .. I swear ya'll .. we were doing a runners lunge to a twisting triangle .. don't know how she did it but she fell as in her entire body at one time hit the matt .. including her face .. I gasped and looked at her and she just laughed . . if she wasn't so dang clumbsy I would have sworn she did it on purpose .. it was THAT exaggerated .. .. she has been coming for a month now and I have seen NO improvement in coordination .. something is not right w/her .. ???

TGIF .. and we are THREE people short today .. .. so gonna be another wild day at the asylum .. but the good news is I will be indulging in some CABS and a nice grilled steak tonight . DH is off .. and tonight is "date night" .. }(

Today is heavy legs in the gym at lunch .. they are just now NOT sore .. HA .. we knew that could not last ..

OK . will BBL to check in w/personals!

have a great one ... TGIF finally!:7

Mornin ladies

Just got my lazy butt out of bed. I keep going to bed so late and it's really messin with my schedule. I sleep all day and don't get anything done! I gotta resist my night owl tendencies and start going to bed early.

I'm chuggin a cup of coffee and then downstairs for PLB before last minute packing. My hams are a bit sore from PP yesterday so in another hour they should be fried.}(

Wendy - You do C&B with ARX girl!! It's one of your fav's isn't it? This one always reminds me of you. I hate it b/c of all the push ups and pull ups and while I'm doing them I think "and Wendy likes doing these??" LOL!

Diana - Sounds like you have another torture day on tap. I would not want to mess with you! You must be like one pure muscle. I always look at what you do and think....is this girl serious?? DH better shape up or he might find himself in a world of hurt. *lol*

Laura - Hang in there, it's Friday and you do have some fun things to look forward to. Steak and CABS and ..........}( Ah, yes, worth the wait!!
So is your uncoordinated student fit? I guess it would be possible to be fit and uncoordinated. Maybe suggest perhaps running or spin or wearing a helmet in your class? *lol* How did you and the rest of your class keep yourself from cracking up? I mean, after she was OK (obviously wouldn't be very funny if she got hurt). But after, I would be just dying trying to keep it in. When I take a dive off my step, uhum....which I do from time to time, after I make sure I'm all in one piece I just can't help but laugh. I'm such a dork.

Cathy - Where are you? You are an early bird so I'm surprised you haven't been here already. Maybe out for an early run?

Nancy - Your probably in the air already - woooohooo!

Alrighty then.....I need to meander down to the basement and do PLB. I check back in on Sunday. Everyone have a great weekend and may the CABS flow freely. ;-) :9

Hey there!

I am home from work and headin' off for a power nap before doing C&B/ARX.

Yes Angie, I certainly do like that work out but it DOES take a TON of energy so it can hard to get it rollin' but once I'm into it, I enjoy it!}(

 

[rmrmr]

Hi Girls,

I have to leave early so will not make it to the gym for Shoulders & Biceps. I can do this particular w/o at home since I have all the stuff. Oh...I weighed myself at home and am down 3lbs. I'm so excited.

Laura-Oh my, I'm with Angie-I probably would've laughed out loud! Maybe a helmet would be good for her if she is planning to continue taking your Kicka$$ classes. Have a fun date night and enjoy your CABS!

Angie-Have fun on your camping trip..after you finish PLB of course. I love to workout, and the harder the better as far as I'm concerned. I have enough days off that when I have the chance to workout I really want to give it my all. Obviously I'm highly motivated today.

Wendy-I think the same thing-Wendy enjoys this torture! Sometimes its more like, well if Wendy can do it I should be able to also. Just a little motivation for the rest of us...you didn't know that did you?

Happy Friday, ladies!

I was on the boards this AM but ran out of time to post here.

Wendy :: oh yeah, that’s what I meant – that we all bow down to B&G! How was C&B/ARX?…BTW, I noticed you are inspiring tattoos everywhere! *lol*

Diana :: so, when do you actually get to EAT during the day? Hope you enjoy all your w/outs!…Congrats on the 3 lb. loss!!! Come be my coach. I cannot keep my eating reigned in for long periods of time! As in more than one hour. *lol*

Laura :: *lol* about your klutz in class…Now I consider myself uncoordinated, but even *I’m* not THAT bad! …CABS & steak – what could be better? Enjoy!

Angie :: I was the opposite last night ~ I nodded off really early and wound up waking up at 3. DOH! Once again, a middle-of-the-night wakeup thanks to my bladder…Have a great time camping! Glad the repairs are going to be hassle-free…I have not actually seen the Video, but my students were buzzing about it this spring…You’d only *need* the Video if you want to view Cathe’s workouts, not just do the audio ones…I am basing this info on a thread that recently appeared in the Ask Cathe section…But yes, I would imagine the Video would be bigger to accommodate the screen, and in that case, it would not be ideal for running. IMO, the Nano is perfect for it…Ha, that nasty pharmacist (he was a floater, not a regular employee) did get corrected by the pharmacy manager, I was told.

I did BM2’s u/b section (just once – had never tried it before -liked it a lot) instead of the PUB premix and then followed that with kind of a lousy run. Just didn’t have the gas today, for some reason. And my back was throbbing. It’s weird – some runs, it hurts worse than others. But I had an adjustment this morning, so it’s feeling good again. Afterward, it was off to the salon for a haircut and pedi. I always opt for the classic French pedi but decided to live on the edge today. *lol* They gave me a “tropical” French – a light pink on the toenail and hot pink on the tip. I said I liked it, but truthfully? Eh. I won’t divulge what I spend on my pedis…you would think I was employed as a doctor, not a teacher. (I do my own pedis in the winter to save money, though.) Still, I’m trying not to think about the amount of cash I just plunked down for crazy pink toenails. Oh well. Live and learn.

Found out, too, that my HS teacher friend who was going to go through this certification process with me has decided to drop out. Boooo!

All right, babes, off I go!

hey Ladies ..

I am hiding once again from the sales floor .. YIKES .. what a day!!

Cathe .. tropical French pedi .. hhmmmmm .. interesting!! at least your toes look like they are on vacation!! LOL .. I keep my toenails so short French pedis do not work on me (keep them short b/c of the punishment they take in my workouts .. can't stand to "feel" my nails) .. and I usually go w/a tropical pink color on them .. makes my spirits feel higher .. and brightens up a REALLY ugly foot!! and I am not exaggerating .. they are a size 9 to 9.5 .. and the toes spread out really wide .. I have a gap in between the big toe (which is huge) and the next toe .. you can fit another toe in that dang space. I always crack up when I get a pedi and they put the "spacers" in the one next to my big toe falls out .. LOL .. they struggle and I finally end up laughing out loud and tell them forget it!! LOL .. you gotta laugh about it!!

Angie and Diana - the clumbsy girl .. I did not even feel the urge to laugh b/c it was such a loud thud .. and it was almost like she thought it was cute .. ?? .. I really think she is kinda slow mentally and goofs off a lot of the time opn purpose .. you know .. and does things for attention ?? .. she is not "fit" persay ..but VERY flexible .. it is almost like she is too flexible and that is why she is so uncoordinated .. does that make sense .. ?? .. like she can't control her muscles .. she has no balance, no rythym, no hand - leg - eye coordination, and not really good stamina (but acceptable for someone just starting my class) .. she is now listening to what is coming out of my mouth so that is THE ONLY thing I can say that is improved .. I can't put my finger on it .. I heard today she is in the band and joined my class to develop some coordintion skills ?? hhhmmmmm .. think she needs a PT not a group exercise program!

The only time I have laughed out loud and not been able to control my funny bone .. was when this woman who is a regular and who is a friend of mine .. we were doing wall squats .. well she chose the DOOR to the room .. and it was supposedly locked .. well the lock doesn't stick .. so when she pressed against the door WHOP it opened and she did a backward summersault into the gym hall .. I just about busted a gut ... b/c she did it so fast and rolled backward and popped out of it just as quickly not missing a beat .. NOW THAT WAS FUNNY!!!! I had to stop the class b/c I was laughing so hard I could not catch my breath .. it did not embarrass her .. she was laughing just as hard as the rest of us!!!

SIL and I hit the gym at lunch and fried our legs once again .. tomorrow we are either going to tackle Muscle Endurance, Low Max or BBC full body .. (if her pinched nerve allows her) ..

OK .. I have hidden out long enough .. back to the asylum .. come on 5:00 ... and DATE NIGHT ..... DH been on evening shift and I am missing him! (did I just say that .. }( )

have a great one Ladies .. for once I will be home this weekend .. so will try to check in w/you fitness junkies on the piece of crap dial up computer at the house .. !! have a great one!!:7

Hi Girls.

So I did Chest&Back and ARX today but I have a confession to make...I only did half of chest and back but I "brought it" and definately felt worked at the end!}(

Tomorrow an early spin class at the gym is my only work out on tap. We are going to spend some time on the boardwalk tomorrow afternoon/evening playing games, putting Joey on rides and eating cr@p as my mom and her bf are coming down just so they can do that with DS.:+

Tomorrow night my mom is taking Joey home with her to spend the night so DH and I will probably go to a friend's house in north jersey for a visit.

On Sunday I am going to lunch with a fellow Catheite who rarely posts anymore but I met her through these boards. After that I am meeting my DH at my mom's for dinner...can we say BAD EATING WEEKEND in store?? I may need to re-do my rotation for next week to include cardio EVERY DAY to make up for it!}( LOL
