Peeps:
I feel good tonight! After enjoying a few restful days, I am fired up and ready to tackle a 3-week cardio and circuit training rotation and start my one-rep max tests to prepare for STS! I confess that I was pondering the possibility of flying by the seat of my pants until Cathe posted the charts with pictures and star ratings for each exercise. During the chat Friday, she assured me that I only need to focus on the exercises rated with 4 stars or 5 stars. That involves a total of 38 upper body exercises. Personally, I am skipping all the tests for legs. Most of my weight is attached to my body, not my barbell! LOL!
I attended a Saturday afternoon weight loss prayer support group led by a member of my church family who started his fitness journey at 430 pounds last November and has lost 100 pounds (down to 330 pounds). His goal weight is 170 pounds.
My mind is being renewed. I am filled with hope and blissfully unaware of the extra weight I am hauling around most of the time. I am alive and well, and there is a spring in my step! God is good! Life is good! My reality has not changed, but my mental attitude is being transformed! I am having a revival of faith! Mountains that appeared to be insurmountable a month ago look like hills this month, and I want to run to the top and dance with joy! Glory!
My beloved Rhythmic Step is on my rotation for the morning. Is it morning yet? No, it is midnight! Sweet dreams, Peeps!
Jerry, Easter Peeps are sweet chicks and bunnies. Not a duck in the bunch! I am looking forward to reading about your 4-Day Split rotation and eating journey. The 4-Day Split is my favorite Cathe series overall. It is very efficient and effective. I love her November 2007 rotation.
Vilma, did you enjoy a power nap before your workout?
Karin, I hope you are feeling better.
Ellie, step away from the whiskey!
Dani, I am praying for positive results from your stress test.
Jill, I love "Shackles" too! Thankfully, I am free to dance at my church! I would love to hear your pastor’s daughter sing it!
Conni, welcome to Peepville! I want to add some dancy and fun hi-lo workouts to my rotation. Have you given the new FIRM Cardio Dance Fusion a whirl? I have not wanted a FIRM workouts in years, but this one looks like fun. I am trusting you to help me find fun cardio workouts to spice up the STS rotation!
Hugs to Gayle, JJ, Phyllis, Wendy, and any other Peeps who visit today.
Blessings,
Heather B.
