Yesterday I did portions of 3 different cardio workouts. I started with CDorner Dance Cardio and got 10 minutes in and was not feeling remembering all the moves. This was heart rate 89/115, 624 steps. I put in Coffey Fir Raw Cardio Crush stopping after the planks, 10 minutes and went on to do her Step boxing drills, 42 minutes, heart rate 109/135, 163 calories. 2,163 steps. Cardio crush was too much impact, and I did not want to do planks. I finished with CDorner Magical Mobility Flow, 33 minutes, 61 calories, heart rate 83/97. Total time was 82 minutes, w60 calories, 2,792 steps. The Step boxing drills I used 2# dumbbells for and I used two risers instead of the 3 that they used. Last time I did it I used the 3. It really is more like doing Up and down leg press with a kick at the top. No impact and one segment is done on the floor. They used a higher step to make it more intense. Option is a weight vest or on the floor.
Today I did CDorner Step #266 Int/Adv, 62 minutes, heart rate 111/135 (had the hardest time getting my heart rate up today) 4,950 steps. This was one had more challenging choreography with lots of side changes and turns on and off the step. I finished off with CDorner Stretch after Step, 20 minutes as I added some back stretches, 30 calories, heart rate 76/92. Total time was 82 minutes, 267 calories, 4,974 steps.
I may do something with weights tomorrow. Todays workout was kickboxing and abs and I did not want to do that after doing Kelly's Step with the 2# dumbbells yesterday. My upper back and shoulders are a bit sore after that.
Valerie, nice that you got in your ride as planned. It is nice that you have a place like the tree farm too ride in. I think we talked about the seats before. I need to look into the padded bike shorts. Mine seems so narrow and I find myself sliding toward the point. One time I did the extra-long mix on Pedal Power and almost had blisters between my legs. After that I got the padded seat cover, but it is still uncomfortable. I think I could watch tv on the rebounder. but usually use videos to encourage me to keep going. There are a few times I have watched some you tubes on my tv while watching a Cathe Cycle dvd on my computer or tablet. My rebounder was a bit noisy with the springs. They say the bungees are quiet.
Carolyn, nice work with Kelly Coffey Power Splits Upper Body yesterday and Jessica Smith Boogie I.T. today. I think Boogie I.T. is a fun workout on that set. One of my favorites and she kicks it up with the intervals.
Judy, nice work with the Peloton workouts yesterday and Peloton ride today with the upper body strength.
Cathy, I think I would be like you and visit and go visit your parents when the weather is nicer. Ours is pretty much melted off and my dog decided since I cleaned and mopped last night to go out for a roll in the grass. We had an altercation when I gave her the go back outside command. Silly dog. A few hours earlier I was feeling sorry for her because when she gets up from sleeping, she limps lately. I need to get her some glucosamine or something. I had more room till we got the new recliner with the remote when I had surgery and put the other one in that room. I rarely take any of it down, but if I have to it would be the Fit Tower. I had to move it and the spin bike when I did the Coffey Fit Raw cycling workout where she did upper body weight work without getting off the bike. She had them set on a platform on the back of her bike and I sat mine on a folding chair next to the bike. I needed to be able to reach my arms out for lateral raises. I used to have a barbell pad, but it would shift around my bar and I finally threw it away. The barbell from Les Mills Pump has sort of a build in padding on it.
The bean soup sounds good. I need to make some more soup. I ordered some veggies that will come tomorrow for soup.
