Christmas Day I did GS Back Shoulders and Biceps and then DH and I relaxed for a few hours before going to his dad’s. Yesterday I did Scrambled Cycle Max and then DH and I spent the day having a House marathon. This morning I decided to take a rest day from working out. I have plenty of cleaning to do. My desk at home has been a catchall place for all the junk I don’t know what to do with so now I get to organize it.
Penguin Great job on the whole stinking Afterburn! I always consider it cardio even with the fact that it uses light weights. That series was extremely pushup and plank heavy. I am hoping XTrain will have less. Guess we will find out soon!! That is creative to sub in for the pushups and planks.
Janie I love the picture of Zander. I really like the hint of color in the picture. I think the little splash of color really makes it beautiful. Great job on yoga. I’m glad you had a great Christmas with your daughter and family.
Cheryl Great job on your bike and chest and back work at the gym. Sounds like you had a nice Christmas. Except the waking up at 4 am the next morning. That is very frustrating. Hopefully you were able to relax a little.
Pam Great job on Body Max cardio! Sounds like you had a nice Christmas lined up. I hope your sister is doing better. Great job on CCC especially on so little sleep. That is quite amazing!
Have a great day!

I did Prev: Fight Cellulite Fast cardio workout, which I found rather boring after doing so many tabata workout. The music was really uninspired. My parents came over for sandwiches they they took me to the library and shopping {I really needed milk!} The pictures I took at Christmas didn’t turn out well so I downloaded my Mom’s camera card and got hers. They bought me the KP Sunstruck knitting needles for Christmas but they weren’t shipped until the 24th so I’m waiting for them to come!!!
Janie, glad you had a good time at your daughters.
Julie, with some of these workouts its a little hard to tell. Cardio Supersets has weights, too, which I usually skip. I figure being overweight counts so I don't need them. I'll sub bench press and flys for pushups but not during cardio.

Pengn Great job on the WSAB! that is one tought workout that i always feel for days afterwards! How scary that you black out when you do push-ups or planks, yikes! Reality does have a way of sinking back in, doesn't it? I still have my laundry waiting for me!
I'm glad you got to the bread in time!
Cheryl So now my poor sister has had 4 heart attacks, they said she had another.
She has always been told that it would be too risky for her to have heart surgery, But one of the Drs who saw her this week told her she is too young to be living like this (she's 53) and recommended that she go to the Cleveland clinic because they specialize in difficult cases. That is the most encouraging news she has had in a long time, so that was nice.
What a bummer that you still woke up at 4 after being up so late. I am starting to get used to sleeping in. Of course, I will be fully used to it just in time to go back to work!
Janie Great job on yoga, so,glad to hear you had a lovely Christmas at your daughter's house! Hope you got a great sleep.
Julie Great job on GS back and shoulders and scrambled CM! I love House, I haven't seen it in so long. Did you get the XTrain downloads? They were supposed to be available tonight!
Thanks, my sister is doing quite a bit better. She was moved to a regular room this afternoon and may get to go home tomorrow. As I was telling Cheryl, she got some hope for being able to have heart surgery too, which would be a really good thing!
Penguin I haven't heard of Fight cellulite fast, sounds like you aren't recommending it though. Sorry you have to wait for your knitting needles, but I guess you have something to look forward to.
I realized that I just finished the full 4 weeks of meso 2 upper body, so am treating this week,as an active recovery week and did step blast this morning. DH got me s weight bench for Christmas so he keeps hoping that I have tried it out, but I will get to it. looks like XTrain will be here in a day or so!!

Rest day today. Did nothing really but watch TV movies. Ahhhhhhh.
Julie, Great job on Christmas GS Back Shoulders and Biceps. The next day Scrambled Cycle Max. What is a house marathon? I need to organize too.
Penquin, Great job on Fight Cellulite Fast Cardio workout. Don't know that one. Oooo, nice present from your parents. KP Sunstruck knitting needles. I'll have to look that up to visualize it.
Pam, Congrats for finishing 4 wks of Meso 2 upper body and doing an active recovery this week. Great job on SB this morning.
Take care everyone,

Penguin Glad that you got to the bread in time. Scary that you black out when doing pushups and planks. Good idea to sub the moves.
Janie So nice that you had so much fun at your daughters house. You will catch up on your sleep. Enjoy your rest day.
Julie Good job on GS Back Shoulders and Biceps and the scrambled Cycle Max. Your desk sounds like mine. It is a catch all for everything too.
Pam Your poor sister. She is way too young to have had so many heart attacks. It can't be a fun life for her. I am glad that the Drs recommended a good clinic that she can go to and hopefully get better. I don't think I will ever get used to sleeping in 4 or 5am seems to be the norm for me to wake up. Good job on Step Blast. Lucky you to get XTrain in a couple of days. I will have to wait a couple of weeks.
Well it was back to work for me today. It was so quite on transit today. Today I went to the gym and did 30 minutes on the Elliptical and then did an upper body circut. I need to get a program in place so I know what I want to do at the gym and at home. Right now it is just a hodge podge of stuff that I am doing.
Have a great day everyone.

Hubby stayed home sick today, so this morning I tried to be quiet and let him sleep, but that's about to change because I need to exercise and finish the laundry, which includes washing the sheets hes' sleeping on.
I did Ripped to the Core, which I haven't done in several years. I think the workout would be better and shorter if there wasn't the demonstration and explination of each move beforehand. But I enjoyed it. Since my HR wasn't up I did the spider pushups, which I enjoy more than regular pushups. If my heartrate is up and I drop to the floor, then stand up, I black out on the way up. Has something to do with my circulation and the blood rushing away from my head. One of Hubby's work friends is like that only he's worse than me.
Cheryl I'm sure you'll get a routine going soon.
Janie, here's a link to the sunstruck interchangable set I'm getting. Options Sunstruck Wood Interchangeable Needle Set from KnitPicks.com Knitpicks has several sets that all work together. I have the nickel set and a few of the Harmony tips, which are beautiful but often too dark to 'see' the stitches clearly. I love the interchangables because I don't have to buy multiples of each needle in different lengths. Although I did buy a lot of the 'fixed' Clover bamboo needles. Hopefully the Sunstruck with be a light like the bamboo with the convienence of the interchangable.
Pam, congrats on the weight bench. Nice gift. yay on Xtrain.

Janie it sounds ike you had a wonderful rest day, I hope you thoroughly enjoyed it!
Cheryl yea, it is sad that my sister has so many health issues. It makes me feel Guilty to be so healthy. I am glad that she finally got some hopeful news though. I hope you don't have to wait TOO long for XTrain to arrive, mine is here today! I was so happy to see it in the mailbox!
It's a bummer going back to work, isn't it? I am already dreading it and I don't go back til Wednesday Great job on your workout at the gym! I know what you mean about having a program in place though, it really makes a difference doesn't it?
Jane I hope you and Rolly were able to get out and enjoy that walk on the beach.
Penguin Sorry to hear that your DH is sick, I hope he is feeling better soon! Great job on ripped to the core. I don't know that one, but it certainly sounds impressive! i don't think i can say there are any push-ups that i enjoy!
So looks like I forgot to post yesterday, but I did cardio kicks in the morning and then continued on my cleaning from the day before. I spent 4 hours cleaning my stove, so then I didn't want to use it and mess it up! this morning was 40/20 and stability ball abs. They both kicked my butt. Then the DH and I went and ran some errands. We found a new Chinese place for lunch and it was sooo good! We were very excited. Then I came home a found XTrain in the mailbox! I think I will start the 90 day rotation after New Years. I can take from now til then to do my 1 rep max testing! It's so exciting to have new workouts!!. I used the last of the Christmas leftovers to make a big pot of turkey noodle soup, so that and a salad will be dinner tonight. It's a chilly day so perfect for soup. Have a great day everyone!

Walked the beach with Rolly for about 45 min. During the middle of the walk I got into some unstable sand and sunk in up to my ankles and was stuck for awhile. Never happened to me before. It was scary, makes me think there are more unstable sand elsewhere just ready to cobble us up. I think I will walk around the neighborhood the next time around. Who knew the beach could be dangerous to walk after storms.
Penquin, Great job on Ripped to the Core. Blacking out? Wow. Be careful. Thanks for the link on the Interchangeable Needle Set. Interesting.
Pam, Great job on CK and clean max, especially on the stove. Also for this mornings 40/20 and stability ball abs. WOW! You got XTrain! So excited for you. When we go home on the first, I'm expecting my little package as well. LOL We too are having soup tonight. Hmmmmmmmm
Take care everyone,

Penguin Sorry to hear that DH is sick. Good job on Ripped to the Core. Blacking out is not good, glad to hear that you listen to your body and substitute something else.
Pam Lucky you to have already received XTrain. I won't get mine until sometime in January, I am still waiting for the calendar which I still haven't received yet. I probably won't get that until sometime in January too. You will have to give us your reviews on the workouts once you start doing them. Good job on Cardio Kicks 40/20 and stability ball abs.
Janie Good job on your walk on the beach with Rolly but scary about getting stuck in the sand.
I was going to workout yesterday and I tried this morning but I was too bummed out. My director told me yesterday that as the job I am doing is a developmental position I will be gone from that job at the end of March. Unless I can find another position that pays the same I will have to go back to my old job at a much lower salary. So if I can't find a comparable job or get my personal training business off the ground we will barely be keeping a roof over our heads. I had to cancel my gym membership today and we are looking at other ways to cut expenses. I hope everyone else had a great weekend.

Joey, Rolly and I walked the beach and fed staled bread and crackers to a lone seagal. It was fun.
Cheryl, I'm so sorry to hear about your job. I would be bummed out too. Maybe it's a good thing and now you can concentrate on being a PT. I hope all works well in the long run. Fingers and toes are crossed for ya.

Sorry I have been MIA. It has been hard to want to want to get on the computer during my vacation. Anyway, I have decide to take this last week as an active recovery week. I did some spinning on Friday and did Cycle Max Extreme today.
Penguin Great job on Prevention FCF and Ripped to the Core! Oh I hate spider pushups. If those are similar to Cathe’s bootcamp pushups, where you bring your knee in towards your shoulder. Just can’t do those.
Pam Great job on Step Blast! Yea! The weight bench was an awesome gift. I know you will get lots of use out of it. I did get the downloads. I haven’t watched all of them. Mainly the 100 rep challenges and some of the bonus footage. Oh, and I read a little of the user guide. I will be checking the mail in a little bit to see if the DVDs came in. Great job on Cardio Kicks followed by 4 hours of cleaning and on 40/20 plus stability ball abs! I love Chinese. DH is not a fan so I don’t get it very often.
Janie Hope you had a great rest day watching tv. House is a tv show that was on for about 8 seasons on Fox. DH and I spent the entire watching some of the seasons. Probably will do that again some today and tomorrow. Great job on your 45 minute walk with Rolly! Oh that would be scary to get stuck. Glad you got unstuck without having to send Rolly for help. Great job on your long walk feeding the seagull. That sounds very relaxing.
Cheryl Great job on the elliptical and your upper body circuit! I am sure you will figure out a routine soon although it sounds like you are doing just fine with your hodge podge. It is like getting a little taste of everything. Oh I am so sorry about your job. At least they gave you three months to try to get something figured out rather than waiting until March to tell you. That is such a bummer especially because you were so close to retirement. I am praying for you that everything works out.
Have a great day!

Janie great job on your walk on the beach! how scary getting stuck in ghe sand like that. Yikes! How fun feeding the seagull though. I hope it is warmer where you are. We are at the beach too but it is cold!
Julie no worries about being Mia, I think we are all a little slower right now. Great job on spinning and cycle max extreme!
Penguin did your XTrain arrive? I see they are all done shipping so you should have it very soon. I wanted to take down the Christmas stuff but DH wanted to wait til next weekend, so that's when we'll be doing it.
I did XTrain cardio legs yesterday morning and really enjoyed it. It is similar to plyo legs in format but seemed like the breaks aren't as long. It didn't have any dread factor moves for me either. I started doing my 1 RM testing too so I think I will start the 90 day program on Monday. I can't wait We are at the beach now for New Years and today was a day off but will probably get out for a walk on the beach soon. Happy New Year ladies!

Hubby went into work for a few hours, and his boss gave him the rest of the day off. The work trip is still on but he can't get any information about it from the PTB, like when to be at the airport for his flight.
Laundry, Tabatacise, and fun with Hubby planned for today!
Pam, I swear I posted last night. Maybe I forgot to hit submit again? Xtrain did arrived. I plan on Supercuts for tomorrow.

I did Tabatacise for today!
Burnsets or supercuts for tomorrow.
I also did a craft project. Since my Xtrain workouts come in one big dvd case, I emptied individual cases and made covers for each of them with red and black markers so they stick out. I learned my lesson last Cathe series when I left them in the box and then forgot I had them so I didn't so them often, so eventually I made orange and black covers for them.

Janie Good job on your walk on the beach with Rolly. I bet that seagull was your friend after feeding him.
Julie I know what you mean about not wanting to get on a computer while you are on vacation. Good job on your spinning workouts.
Penguin Lucky you to have received your XTrain DVDs. Both you and Pam will need to provide reviews on what you think of them.
Pam Good job on XTrain cardio legs. Enjoy your New Years at the beach.
So for me I did yoga on Sunday. I had to work on Monday but did Crossfire after I got home. Today I really worked out hard. First thing in the morning I did Turbo Barre and then I went for a 25 kilometer walk with a friend that is visiting from Norway. That is somewhere around 14 -15 miles. Yowsa I think I am going to feel this for several days. It took us about 4 1/2 hours and it was foggy the whole way but at least it was flat. I have been home for several hours now and have just started to warm up. I must say I really did burn some serious calories today.
Have a great day everyone.

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind a newbie My name is Kelly, I'm 32 years old, and I'm from Colorado. I'm trying to get back into shape after having my first child 10 months ago - he is an adorable little boy named Aiden (couldn't help attaching a pic lol). I've worked out with Cathe in the past but its been a looong time so it's probably gonna be a little slow going. I'd really like to lose about 40 lbs and tone up. I look forward to getting to know you all and reaching our goals together

Rolly, Joey and I walked the beach for about 30 or more min. Sunny day today, it was so pretty outside with the ocean. Wow. Got back home to Shelton and found XTrain. Will start the 30 day cardio with strength combo, tomorrow. May or may not finish the rotation, there are still so many DVD's to do. We'll see. Wish me luck on my Tennis Elbow.
Pam, It's only about 40 degrees outside while walking on the beach today, but we dressed the part with gloves, scarves and something to protect my ears. LOL. Great job on XTrain cardio legs yesterday morning. Are you home from the beach yet?
Penquin, Great job on Tabatacise today. How was it?
Cheryl, Great job on yoga Sun. Crossfire on Mon. and today for doing Turbow Barre and the 14-15 miles walk with your friend. WOW! Is all I can say. You go girl! That is a little longer than a half a marathon? Wow.
Kelly, Welcome aboard! It's always nice to meet a newbie. Your son Aiden is sooooooooooooooo cute. Losing weight and gaining muscle the slow way is the very best way to go. Take your time as long as you are mentally prepared to commit you will do just fine. I lost 45 pounds last year so you are in for a huge wonderful surprise. Just make your goals to lose 5 pounds at a time. Don't rush it, I did and got injured with Tennis Elbow. I rested it for about 2 months and will start again tomorrow with the exercises. This time slowly.
Take care ladies,
Janie
Pam, It's only about 40 degrees outside while walking on the beach today, but we dressed the part with gloves, scarves and something to protect my ears. LOL. Great job on XTrain cardio legs yesterday morning. Are you home from the beach yet?
