Morning all. Are you supposed to feel like someone took a hammer to every inch of your body the day after a KB workout? I think I'm going to like this KB stuff!

Thank goodness today is the end of the work week for me. Someone on second shift volunteered to help cover our short staffing, so I should be able to get my days off next week. My niece won't be arriving until late Saturday evening, so tomorrow's plans, besides KB, include major housework.

Today is a cardio day for me and think I'll pull out an Amy hi/lo workout. Be back in a bit to see what's up with all you peeple.
 
Hey there Peeps! The week end is almost here!!!

ROBIN Thank you so much for the shout out in Open discussion. I am so excited about Sunday. I wish it was on Saturday instead. I will spend my next 2 days eating lots o carbs!:D Glad that you won't be short staffed at work. Have funwith your Amy w/out!
 
Peeps Check-in

Peeps:

Happy Friday! Are our sweet peeps sleeping in this morning? I slept until 7:00 a.m. this morning, so my bonus cardio will have to wait until after work. I am planning to go to the club on the way home tonight and jog in the pool or ride the recumbent bike.

Catherine, what is the link to your PictureTrail? I miss your Bisquit avatar! I am more of a cat lover, but Bisquit is too cute for words. Muffie is cute too!

Karin, I am so happy that your father’s surgery went well. I am keeping him in my prayers and hope you slept restfully last night.

Ellie, you are a riot! Has the room stopped spinning yet? I hope you feel better today.

Robin, it sounds like you had a great workout! Have fun with your niece this weekend!

LaDonna, best wishes for your run this weekend. Have a blast!

Blessings,
Heather B.

Morning Peeps~

Well, it is the end of an era. Last night was the final game for DD's HS soccer team as they lost in sectionals. She has been playing since she was 6yrs old, first just recreationally, then traveling and playing year round. She's been on the varsity team since 9th grade and it has been such a huge part of her life. Last night, as a senior, she played her last game and it really hit her hard. Lots of tears among the seniors who have been together for many years. They had today off school so we invited the team to sleep over last night. The tears were replaced with lots of laughter & fun and I think they ate all the food in the house!

I was going to do a CC on my elliptical but I've got 18 girls camped out in my basement :eek: So we'll see.......

Robin~ Was that your first KB workout? Hope things less hectic at work for you.

LaDonna~ I'll be thinking of you on Sunday. GO, GO, GO!!!!

Happy Friday to everyone who follows! Have a great weekend:D

JJ
 
JJ, I remember those days with my DD. I miss the games. We live in a very small school district and our girls team made it to the playoffs for the first time while she was on the team. It was thrilling to get that far, even though they lost the first game.

That was my first KB workout with the KB. I tried one once with a dumbell and just didn't see the point. I think having a KB makes a big difference.

Morning Heather. You make sure to get that cardio done, ya hear!

LaDonna, I hope you can post some pictures of your race. Isn't it exciting to think so many other Catheites will be running in other races this weekend? Sort of makes me think I should dig out the old running shoes and jog a mile or two for old times sake.
 
Good morning, Friday Peepers!

This morning, I did a Kettlebell workout, followed by some Lotte Berke, pilates, & yoga. It's going to be gorgeous here today but I think I'm going to enjoy the weather by pressure washing the fence & decks some more. Hopefully, I can get finished early & then spend some time relaxing & enjoying the sun.

Robin - OMG, I thought exactly the same thing the first few times I did a KB workout! I felt like every inch of my body had taken a beating. But isn't it great? :p (where IS that devil smiley when we need it?!?) Glad this is the end of your work week & I hope you enjoy your weekend.

LaDonna - I'll be thinking about you on Sunday. I hope you get a chance to take some pictures too...

Heather - Getting a little extra sleep sounds like a great way to start your day! Hope you enjoy your trip to the club after work. Jogging in the pool sounds like fun!

JJ - Awww, how sad about your DD's last soccer game... but I'm glad they got to end the era with a fun sleep over. Is she planning to play in college? Hope you can wade through all your basement "campers" & get your workout in.

Well, I guess that's it for now. I better get out & get to work now. I hope everyone has a great Friday & I hope I get a chance to pop back in later.

TGIF to one & all!

Hola Peepers!

I was sooooooooo tired this morning that I slept in until 6AM (whoo!) and did all the step sections from Body Fusion for my workout. I was just in the tired zone (probably thanks to Drill Max yesterday!) and needed something basic. Still worked up a sweat, though, so it did the job.

My weekend plans include shopping at Whole Foods tomorrow with DD, then going to a fall festival at our church Saturday night. Then, on Sunday, DD has a playgroup that is also a ceramics party--they take the little kids' handprints/footprints and paint something using the print as the base (Like a footprint that is turned into a rooster plate, for example.) I think these will be great grandma Christmas gifts so I'm excited.

What are you peeps doing this weekend? :)

Robin--Your description of the KB DOMS feeling like a hammer hit every inch of your body has--strangely--intrigued me even *more* about KBs! LOL!

Heather--Ah, sleeping until 7AM sounds soooooooo nice. Color me jealous! Good luck with the bonus cardio tonight.

JJ--Last night sounds like a wonderful night at your house and the turning of the page in your DD's life. How cool that you got to host a fun, end of season party for them!

OK, gotta do some budget numbers now. Must force down a big cup o' office tar doped up with Coffee-Mate Spiced Pumpkin to get my head right with the day. LOL!

:) Wendy
 
Good morning peeps!

I didn't have a chance to check in yesterday at all! getting new bidding program training most of the day and then a night out with the "big cheez" and had a very sinfully deliscious filet medallions with bernaise (sp?) and asparagus... ohhhh... and peanutbutter covered chocolate bon bons! I NEVER eat desert while dining out, but couldn't resist that!

Needless to say I'm FASTING today! :eek:

anyway, more training this morning so just a quick WOO HOO for friday to all!
 
TGIF Peeps!

Another beautiful day here :D I will be out in the yard all day today mowing grass, weed eating and whatever else I can find to get into :) Today is my day off, Yay!

Hi to all and everyone that follows :)
 
Hey all! Yes I will get some pictures. I will have my Dh and DS take some. I won't be looking to sexay though!:eek::eek: So y'all might have to shield your eyes.:D
 
Thanks Peeps for the kind words about DD and her soccer;) I'm no longer complaining that it is over after coming home from conferences and seeing some not-so-good grades:eek: Luckily it is just mid-quarter so there is time to raise them. Physics and calculus are a struggle but the other classes are good. Now she'll have a lot more time to focus and study.

Robin~ Did you take any live KB classes to learn the moves? I want to try them after all the raves here but I really want to get the form right before I start doing dvd's.

Kel~ DD isn't planning on playing in college but both her HS and traveling coach think she should. I think she will have her hands full adjusting to college life and that higher level of education. Enjoy your power washing and the sun:cool:

Wendy~ Sounds like you have some fun things planned this weekend!

Hello to Heather, Dani, Chrissy and all:D

JJ
 
JJ, no, I just used the tutorial DVD that came with the KB to learn the moves. And I'm sure it will take more practice to say I'm doind them right.
 
Hi everyone! No time for personals but just wanted to check-in. Today has been a good day. My dad is doing awesome and things are going well. I hope to check-in more extensively with everyone tomorrow.

TGIF!!!
 
Hi peeps,

Hate to complain, but I feel like crap!!!! Hope the meds start to kick in today. Swear I haven't been sick like this in 10 years!!! :(:(

Karin, so glad to hear your dad is doing well.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. Let me know about the kettle balls and all your great workouts, since I'll be missing mine!!!

DH is not traveling this weekend, so I plan on resting as much as I can. I WANT to get back to Drill Max. I was kickin butt a week ago.

I'll try back later for personals if I'm not passed out. This chest workout (coughing) has me whooped!!!

Hello Gang! Happy Friday!!

Robin, you'll have to let us know how you like your KB w/o. I still haven't done mine yet. I did a bit of practice last Sat with it, but not a complete w/o.

Heather, Bisquit just has such a puppy face that you have to love it. I added their pics to my album here at Cathe. So you can look at them any time you want!

Ellie, do get some rest and I hope you are feeling better soon!!

Karin, thanks for the update on your dad. I hope you are taking care of yourself!!!

JJ, you must get you some KBs ;) I wish I had an opportunity to take a live class somewhere. But the tutorial that came with my video is good and the website Art of Strength has some good instructional stuff too.

LaDonna, I will be rooting for ya on Sunday!! Hey, did you decide if you were gonna join us next month for the GTG?

Muscle Car, enjoy your outdoorsie stuff!!

Dani, I was drooling whilst reading your post :D

Wendy, the cermamic party sounds like a very cool thing. I did a plaster inprint of my hand in Kindergarten. My mom has it, but it's the neatest thing to look at and think that was my tiny hand at one time.

Kel, which KB w/o do you have??? Inquiring minds want to know:cool:

I hope I didn't miss anyone. MWAH!!
 
Hello Peeps!

Just chiming in here to say Hi!

Today was a rest day as I have my fil visiting.

I hope all have had an outstanding day.

now I feel BAD BAD BAD!! :eek:

I didn't know the part about the green gook and stuff... I thought it was just a cold not an infection! I hope the meds kick in soon for you and you will speak to me again..... in a few years... when the spinning bed and the barfing is just a vague memory... ;) Would it help if I did it too???:eek:
 
Hell no Dani, that was the most fun I had all week. And probably the best I've felt too!!!! :D:D:D
