Strength in Numbers

Janie Good work with MIC. That was one of my first Cathe purchases many years ago.

Today I did Cardio Leg Blast, I hadn't done that one in a very long time. It was one good workout. After that I got the laundry done and we changed the door handle on our garage so now we can get to the car. After that it was a lazy day, the weather wasn't that great so we were inside most of the day.

2.5 hours walking the beach this morning and 30+ min tonight. YaHoo! Found lots of shells this time. Went to a different place, just a longer way. Won't need anymore for awhile.

Cheryl, Great job on Cardio Leg Blast. Also for doing cleanmax like laundry, the door handle on the garage. ;)

Take care ladies,

Janie
 
Janie Great job on Step Fit. I always forget about that one. I need to keep it in mind because it is a goodie! So funny about your oops post :D I love your shell tangle, that is really really cool. I can't imagine people NOT taking an interest in them.

Cheryl Great job on TB Trisets UB and your housework. So glad to hear that your Dr said that there was nothing to worry about with the kidneys! What a relief. I think it's a good idea to have the specialist check it out for be sure. OMG, how frustrating not being able to get in your garage!! I'm glad there was a car that you could borrow close-by! Wow, a bear right there in the middle of a congested area, how crazy! That would be scary for both the people and the bear!

Janie Whew is right, great job on MIC! Great finding it at a second hand store too.

Cheryl Great job on cardio leg blast and laundry. I'm glad to hear that you are able to get into your garage again :D

Janie Wow, 3+ hours of walking! Great job! And what a nice bonus that you got loaded up on shells too. I'm happy that you were able to find so many this time!

I decided to make Saturday my rest day instead of Sunday this week, so we had a relaxing morning, DH made breakfast, and then we went and got a ski in. That night we went out for dinner and then a concert. The concert was this guy from Hawaii who pays the Ukelele and he was just amazing. It was really fun. He said that he was discovered because of a video of him playing on You Tube, and now he does world wide tours. Pretty cool. Sunday I did Body Max2. I was supposed to do the whole thing, but I didn't do upper body since we skiied on Saturday. We ended up skiing Sunday too, so I think my upper body got a pretty good workout. Plus this morning was GS Chest and Triceps, then I did the abs from Muscle endurance. DH left for Germany last night. He will be gone until next Tuesday, and I leave Sunday to go to Austin until Friday, so I'll be gone when he gets back :confused: I have lots of work to get done today, so guess I better get busy. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Uh oh, it looks like I'm talking to myself now! :D I hope everyone is doing well. Julie, I hope you are getting great weather and really enjoying your vacation!

This morning for me was Imax 3. I was happy because I didn't have any breathless moments :D I did have to rewind a few seconds once, but that was because I was having a drink of water and Cathe started into the next round too quickly! I hope everyone has a great day!

Pam
 
Janie Good job on your total 3 hour walk on the beach. Glad that you were able to find lots of shells this time.

Pam We have had a lot of bears in the area this year. I just hope I don't come face to face with one when I am walking down to the bus in the morning. I am not big on the Ukelele but I know some people can play them quite well. I always think of Tiny Tim playing Tip Toe through the Tulips when I think of a ukelele. Glad that you enjoyed the concert. Good work on BM2. With all the skiing that you do in the summer I think you get a good upper body workout from that. Good job on GS Chest and Triceps and Imax 3 too.

It was yoga on Sunday and then a lazy day. The weather was kinda crappy so it was just one of those sleepy days. Monday I couldn't get up so I was going to workout when I got home but I decided to watch the season finale of Game of Thrones instead :eek:. By the time we had dinner and I watched my show it was bedtime so I didn't get a chance to post either. Today I did All Out Hiit and core 1.

Have a great day everyone.
 
Today was threatening rain for Rolly and me and when we got to the beach you can see a big dark cloud with rain coming down from the distance. I went back home and a good thing because as soon as I got home it rained. Got in at least 25 min. though. Tonight was 4DSplit Boot camp. Modified a lot! LOL I've started another portrait. This one will be very unusual. Also drilled holes in the shells I picked up and am looking forward to tangling in them.

Pam, Love it when the rest days are so pleasant with family. Great job on the skiing and for enjoying a dinner and a concert. Sounds like such a wonderful time. Also for Sunday's BM2 -upper body because of skiing. Good going! And this mornings GS Chest and triceps and the abs from Muscle Endurance. Germany for a week sounds amazing to me. With the work he needs to get done I'm hoping he will also enjoy the beautiful sights while he is there. Oh no, your schedules are not in synch.

Pam, Talking to ones self here is weird isn't it? Sorry I missed you. (head hanging down) I forgot. Yep, that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it. Great job on Imax 3. Yea, no breathless moments. Means you are improving.

Cheryl, Great job on Yoga Sunday. Darn! I missed Game Of Thrones. I'll have to watch a rerun. Great job on today's All Out Hiit and core 1. Good for you.

Take care,

Janie
 
CherylOh my goodness, I don't know what I would do if I came face to face with a bear. Probably freeze! I hope you don't have that experience either! Hahahaha I forgot about Tiny Tim. This guy was nothing like that! He played Bohemian Rhapsody and While my Guitar Gently weeps and a lot of other really nice songs. He said the good thing about being a ukelele player is that people have low expectations :D
Great job on yoga and your lazy day. Great job on AOLIH and core 1. That is a great workout!

Janie Glad to hear that you dodged the rain! Great job on getting in 25 minutes anyway and 4DS bootcamp! I haven't done that one in awhile. I can't wait to see the new portrait and the tangle shells! DH will get some sightseeing in because he will be there on Saturday since he is traveling to Dublin on Sunday. He hasn't been to Ireland before, so hopefully he gets there early enough to see some of the sights. Yes, it's not great that our travel schedules are off, but then we will enjoy the weekend even more when we are both home. :D
No problem about forgetting to post, it happens to all of us. I almost forgot today because I had a meeting first thing this morning when I usually post.

This morning was Afterburn and then I did the core from Slide and Glide. I always get terrible glute DOMS after this one, so I expect I will be sitting gingerly tomorrow! I hope everyone is having a great day!

Pam
 
Uh oh, talking to myself again, people are going to start to talk! ;) This morning it was Gym Style Back, Biceps and Shoulders. It was pretty good, but I could not do the bonus concentration curls, my biceps were fried. My leg and glute DOMS aren't as bad as I was expecting though, so that is good news. Happy Thursday everyone!

Pam
 
Here I am Pam! I have my sights elsewhere because of HI coming up soon, trying to finish a portrait, making copies of the portraits and sending them out to their owners... I'm so sorry. When we are in HI (for Joe's 75th birthday from his children) I won't be able to post until I get back. Unless I find a computer someplace for guests. Who knows. Please continue on with the posts. I would hate it if I lost you or anyone else in this group.

Will be leaving up North on the 26th, then on the 27 will be in HI until July 5, and go home on that day. Can't wait. Been doing my exercises faithfully and even walking on the beach between rains. Did Slide and Glide yesterday. Will post today's exercises later tonight.

Pam, Lucky Husband getting to do sight seeing in Germany. Wow. How wonderful is that? Great job on Afterburn and the core from S&G. How's the toilet seat test? LOL No, it's all good. Believe it or not I have them! Mainly in the legs and not so bad.

Great job on Gym Style Back, Biceps and Shoulders. It's OK not doing the bonus concentration curls, you need to be safe.

Take care,

Janie
 
Janie Glad that you got a bit of a walk in before it started to rain. Good job on 4DS Bootcamp.

Pam LOL that people have low expectations of ukelele players. Good work on Afterburn and the core from slide and glide. So how was sitting after that one :D. Sorry that you were talking to yourself I didn't get a chance to post yesterday. Good job on GS Back, biceps and shoulders. I find my bis are fried after that one too.

Janie So nice for you to go to Hawaii. I am sure you could find an internet cafe somewhere there. Good job on Slide and Glide and Cardio Leg Blast.

Well I have been bad. I was really tired on Wednesday and couldn't get up and I forgot to set my alarm earlier last night to get up for a workout this morning :eek:. I will get one in tomorrow morning, I have set my alarm for 4am.
 
Janie Oh don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I was just teasing you guys I know everyone gets busy at different times. Oh I am so excited for your Hawaii trip, you are going to have such a great time! Great job on keeping up with your exercises and getting some bonus walk s in as well! Great job on Slide and Glide! It turns out DH won't be doing any sight seeing in Germany. He left Berlin yesterday to go To Stuttgart. He has meetings all day there today and then goes to Dublin in the morning. He should have the weekend to see the sights in Dublin, so that will be nice. I'm not failing the toilet test, which I have been so surprised about. I can tell my glutes are there, especially when I was doing ice breakers this morning, but walking isn't an issue!

Cheryl As I was telling Janie, I was surprised that sitting was not an issue yesterday. I must not have given it my all when I did AB ;) That's ok, I don't mind talking to myself once in awhile.:D As long as I don't start doing it in public! Sorry you have been having trouble getting up. I think if my alarm were set for 4 am though I would be having that same issue!! I'm finding 5:30 difficult these days. I hope you were able to get up for it this morning.

This morning for me was original style Boot Camp. I love that workout, it flies by for me and it has a little bit of everything. I think the short attention span workouts are good because you don't have to do anything for very long. My foot came right out of my shoe during the first terminator climber though. I was somehow able to get it back in without missing my stride by the third one :rolleyes::confused: These are new shoes, guess I need to lace them up tighter or higher or something next time!! Happy Friday everyone, I'm ready for the weekend!!

Pam

Pam 4am is getting a little too hard for me to do. I couldn't do it this morning again but I did manage to get a workout in after work. I wish I could sleep in until 5:30am. Good job on the original Boot Camp. That is one I haven't done in a while, ummm maybe I should do that one tomorrow. Too funny that you lost your shoe during the terminator climbers, smooth move to get it back on without missing your stride.

So this afternoon I did Cardio Supersets. I was really tired when I got home but I am glad that I pushed myself to do it. I felt a lot better afterwards. Below are a couple of pictures from the Spartan Race. You can see how muddy we were at the end.

Been very busy putting together with my Joey a shed in the back yard. It was fun working together, but couldn't do my exercises today. I also had to finish up the portrait. I will be done with it tomorrow. We will be moving back to Shelton and getting ready for the HI trip. Have lots of things to do around the house and many errands. When we get back from HI, will move back to the Beach House. Should have time tomorrow for a workout.

Cheryl, I think your body must have needed the break. Enduring getting up so early in the morning is taking my hat off to you. Wow.

Pam Glad to see your honey will still be able to see the sites on the weekend. It's a nice feeling isn't it to be a little sore from exercise? Great job on this morning Original Style Boot Camp. I can see you in my minds eye your shoe coming off during your workout. LOL Too funny!

Cheryl, Great job on Cardio Supersets. Oh my! I love your photos! You look so awesome. Whoever took the photos is very good at it.

Have a great tomorrow,

Janie
 
This is called Michaela. Will come back for personals.

Cheryl 4 am is just too early for anyone to be getting up on my opinion! i did 4:30 for a couple of years and it was torture. i was always so happy when the kids got out of school for the summer because then I could sleep later. Great job on Cardio supersets! I haven't done that one in awhile but I think it is in the rotation that I'm doing now. Congratulations on pushing your,f to do it when you weren't really feeling it too! I live the pictures from your Spartan race, especially the one where you are leaping over the fire, WOW! So cool!

Janie I think building a shed sounds like workout enough, fun! I tightened Thais shoes up before my workout this morning, I didn't want them doing off during any of my lunges :)
Your new portrait is so awesome! i just don't know how you keep doing it, but you manage to make each one better than the last! I'm sure that Michaela is thrilled with it!

This morning for me was GS legs. I'm not sure I've ever done the one before. She has some really unique moves with the band snag just killed me! Wow! Than I went and skiied, I wasn't sure how I would do after frying my legs like that, but it was good. I was happy because I skiied really badly last weekend. I here everyone is having a great weekend!

Pam
 
Janie Putting up a shed is a workout in itself. I wouldn't worry about not getting one in. The people who took the picture have their own company and they go to marathons and other races to take pictures. The company is located in Florida. Another awesome picture. I love it.

Pam Yeah 4am is early I don't know how Julie gets up at 3:30 to workout. Though I do remember at her age I didn't have a problem doing that either. The fire picture is pretty cool. At that point I could hardly wait to finish. Good job on GS Legs. Wow you hadn't done that one before? She does have some good moves in that one.

So I decided to do the original Bootcamp after Pam mentioned that she did it yesterday. Wow those terminator climbers never get easier. They still do me in.
 
Joey and I worked so hard on the shed so much that I got cranky. Truly did a workout without Cathe this time. LOL

Pam, Great job on tying those Thais shoes and for doing GS legs. OMG! GS Legs is amazing and really gets the job done. Then you went skiing? Glad you were able to do that. You are amazing! Thank you for your compliment on "Michaela" portrait. She says she does like it and it's different. LOL Hope you all have a good Father's Day.

Take care,

Janie
 
Cheryl, Thank you for your compliment on the portrait, it means a lot to me.:) Great job on the original BC. A very hard workout if I remember. LOL

Take care,

Janie
 
Janie LOL that you got cranky working so hard on the shed.

For me I rode my bike to yoga yesterday and then coming back my chain fell off. At least I was only a couple of blocks from home when it happened. Then we went over to my brother's for Father's Day dinner. We didn't get home until late so there was no way I could get up early for a workout. I was hoping to get one done tonight but it was too hot. I will try again for tomorrow morning.

I found a video of the Spartan race that I did earlier in the month. Ahhh memories.........
