Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 10/18

Hi Ladies,

No wo for me today. My Dad and my DB are coming over around the time I usually work out and I need to go home and fix some dinner for them. They live around 2 hours away from me and need to wait for the traffic to die down. My DB has an appointment with his Dr. at UCLA every 3 months.

Garance, I asked my DH and DD to let me know what kind of cake they want, so I might be baking 2 different kinds.

Joan, I'm glad that your DM is doing well.

Hi to Cathy and Deb.

I will not be here tomorrow; I have a dentist appointment which includes deep cleaning.
Not looking forward to that.

Have a nice weekend!

deb, kelsie is a firm instructor and i guess you can view them at collage. i have dial-up, so i don't ever view videos. i love the firm. i know alot of people bash it, but they are good workouts for the most part. i did advanced cardio blast this morning and i was sweating so much my hair was dripping from the end of my braid. and it is only 30m.

garance, i have thought about that, cuz i don't know if i can do them or not. i'm sure they are gonna be really hi-impact. i just didn't know if we could cancel. i was kinda wantin' the HIIT ones.

BEAUTIFUL here today. front came thru. sunny and 70. FABULOUS!! think i'm goning to the zoo w/dil & grandkids tomorrow.
 
Hi ladies,

No wo. I had to babysit until 7:00pm. Today was another ultrasound for dil. I am exhausted.

I have never tried to sell dvd's but I wonder if we got them cheap enough that you could break even on resale? Then you would still have downloads. My trouble is that I think I will lose all my extra weight, get into great shape and be able to do these new workouts. :rolleyes: Since I already modify the normal wo's I have a feeling these dvd's will be gathering dust.

Good Morning,

Not sure what happened to me this morning, I was doing a 35 minute I-tread and and at the 21 minute mark, I just could not go any further. I decided to cut it short and do the STS back workout I had planned, but I couldn't do it..my body felt like lead. ...:confused:. I gave up and came upstairs. I am glad I decided to only work a half day today...

We have a dog Halloween party tomorrow afternoon at the Organic Dog Cafe, which is a little place in a local village that roasts its own coffee, also sells all kinds of "organic" dog food and treats. The stuff they sell is way too expensive, but the coffee is good and you can bring your dog in to the place while you have coffee. They actually have small hooks at each table to hook the leash on. It should be fun. The dogs are dressing up as pumpkins, with little orange and black t-shirts that say "I am a Little Terror" on the back, green thing around their necks and a pumpkin hat. I will try to post a pic here if they sit still long enough to take one.

Garance, even the judges on DWTS were upset over the ones that were in the bottom 2. We are having some nice weather too, although it did get a little rainy last evening, but we needed it. My mums outside were getting dried out.

Josie, big birthday celebration for you this weekend! Have fun at the dentist! :eek:

Cathy, have fun with the kids at the zoo.

Joan, if you get Cathy DVD's at the first presale price, you can make money on them selling individually on Ebay. I think a lot of people do this. They may keep the ones they like, sell the rest. Good thinking on selling the actual DVD's and getting free downloads, Do you have an MP4 player? I hope you get to rest a bit this weekend.

Have a good day ladies!
 
Hi Deb, Josie, Joan, and Cathy--

This morning I did CW (60 min.). I wish Cathe would come out with another DVD like this one. I think it is intermediate and perfect for me. The only thing I can't do on this one is the walking soldier planks. I just plank myself until it's over.

Deb, that sounds like fun for Halloween. When I think of attaching a leash to a table, though, I remember the scene from Marley and Me where he just takes off with the table. It was hilarious!

Joan, for me I know I still wouldn't be able to do those moves from HIIT30 pics if I lost weight. I weigh 136 currently, so if my knees were okay, maybe I would try, but the knees are just not what they used to be. I could do the straddle taps on IMax 2 when the Intensity series came out, but that was what? Eight years ago? My knees were really bad a few years ago, and I am just not taking any chances on making them worse. Straddle taps are back in one picture.

Josie, have fun baking! DH's favorite cake is Burnt sugar cake. But I have not made one of these in some time, because he cannot eat all of it, and I have only one piece.

Cathy, maybe I will look at some of the Firms at Collage. I have to figure out what cardio to use when I start STS next month.

Have a great weekend everyone!
 
Hi Garance, Deb, Josie and Cathy,

Garance I don't think I would do the moves even if I lost weight but I would like to dream.:D I'm hoping I can somewhat do some of it. I might be totally wrong.

I did Imax 3 today and and with the amount of modifying it wasn't as much a calorie burner as low max.

I also did disc 11 which is either Friday of Saturday's wo. Since I substituted the legs from physique 57 I am done with meso 1.

We have a birthday party tomorrow to go to for grand/great niece. Which is correct?

Hi,

We just got back from the Halloween party, I will post a link to the radio station web site once the pics are up there. It was fun, the dogs were great and they looked so cute in their pumpkin terror costumes. They had coffee and pastries for the people, and dog treats for the dogs. The winner of the costume contest was a pug dressed up like a bannana...very cute..

Garance, in the cafe, the hooks for the leashes are actually attached to the walls, not the tables..!! :eek: that would be a disaster. When you do STS next month, are you going to do the 3 month rotation?

Joan, have fun at the birthday party.

ta for now...
 
hi all, i had a nice easy day at home! i was determined i was not going anywhere today! i did aerobic body shaping (firm) this am, and have pretty much been a bum the rest of the day. happy weekend all.
 
Hi everyone,

Can't wait for the pictures. I don't know why but my cat doesn't ever dress in a costume.:)

No wo yet but it's still early.

We went out to eat at the casino. It was a really nice steak place last week, but today it was an Italian restaurant. I still got my filet and it was excellent. Dh got salmon and it was the best I've ever had out. We stopped in to play for just a little bit and I ended up leaving $2000 ahead.
