Strength in Numbers

Tonight was Meso 1, disc 3, legs. Hard work with a sore foot, but I did it with modifications. I'll ice it tomorrow.

Julie, Great job on Get Glutes month 2 workout 3 with the addition of 30/30. YEA YOU! :D

Take care,

Janie
 
Julie Great job on scrambled cycle max on Thursday! I think you have to be in the right mood for the new step videos. Sometimes I don't want to have to think when I'm doing my workout.

Janie Great jib on PP! I'm so happy that you can do your cardio, it really makes a difference, doesn't it? Your dinner sounds fabulous!

Julie Great job on GG and 30/30 you super woman!

Yesterday morning for me was X10 fat burning circuit, Great Glutes and then I added the abs from Flex Train, whew! I had eaten my wheaties too! DH is in Florida on his fall golf trip so I am at my friends beach house for the weekend, so no Cathe til Monday for me. I hope you all have a great weekend!

Pam
 
Pam The pre-retirement session was about all the pension benefits that I will get and financial planning. There is a lot to think about. Wow we will both be retiring around the same time. I believe you when you are saying that you aren't counting down either :p. Great job on X10 cardio blast and lean legs and abs.

Julie Great job on your GG and back workout and the X52 premix from X10. Those X10 workouts are a killer.

Janie Bummer that you have a sprained ankle. At least you can do some cardio while it heals. Great job on STS disc 2. Oh yeah I am old enough to retire. I will be 55 when I retire with over 36 years working at the same place. I am so looking forward to it.

Pam Good job on PRS #1. That one does take a bit of practice with all the moves.

Julie Good work on Scrambled Cycle Max.

Janie Good job on Pedal Power premix #1. Your dinner sounds delicious.

Julie Good work on you GG workout and 30/30. Isn't it great when you eat your Wheaties when you sleep :D.

Janie Good for you in doing STS disc 3 with a sore foot.

Pam Way to go on your X10 fat burning circuit, Great Glutes and the abs from Flex Train. Enjoy your weekend.

Today was Flex Train. I was absolutely exhausted both Thursday and Friday so I didn't get a workout in. It is a long weekend for us as Monday is Remembrance Day here.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Cheryl
 
Rest day today. Cooked and kitchen stuff all day long. Paleo Banana Bread, Coconut milk and butter/oil, Almond flour. Then using the drained coconut and almonds I'm dehydrating them for coatings for chicken and pork. Spaghetti squash made into dinner with Spaghetti sauce. Yummmmy! Guess you know what we had for dinner.

Pam, Great job on X10 fat burning circuit, Great Glutes and the addition of abs. Yes Whew! Good for you! Enjoy the beach house this weekend.

Cheryl, Early retirement is the best. That's what Joey did and followed him around traveling...:D Wow, congratulations for working in the same place of over 36 years. Great job on Flex Train and do enjoy Remembrance Day. What are you remembering?

Take care,
Janie

Janie You sure did have a busy rest day. Remembrance Day here is to remember our war veterans who fought in the wars. Here we get the day off and there are ceremonies all over to remember the war veterans. I don't know if you do this in the States but here we also wear a red poppy to show that we remember too.

Today I did Yoga Max and then it was housework that I didn't get done yesterday. Now we are watching football and after that will be hockey. Umm looks like a day of sports here.

Cheryl
 
Yoga Relax tonight. Oh I needed that.

Cheryl, Looked on my calendar to see if Remembrance Day and our Veterans day was close. It's the same day, tomorrow. We have a day to remember them as well. Great job on Yoga Max and clean Max. Enjoy the rest of the day with sports.

Take care,

Janie
 
Cheryl Its weird, sometimes I can hardly wait for retirement and sometimes I worry that I won't know what to do with myself with all of that free time. I think I will quickly figure it out though! Great job on FlexTrain on Saturday. Today is our Veterans Day, which is the same as your Remembrance day. We don't get the day off though :confused: I hope you enjoy your long weekend!

Janie Wow, you were quite the busy little baker over the weekend! Great job!! I missed your STS disc 3 post the other day too, so a delayed pat on the back for that one!

Cheryl Great job on YM and Clean max! Oh boy, a day of sports, hope you enjoyed it!

Janie Great job on Yoga Relax.

Well it was a beautiful weekend at the beach. Sunny and 70! We had a long walk on the beach each day and mostly just lazing around and reading the rest of the time. This morning I did Crossfire plus core and it really kicked my butt. I would love to go home and take a nap now :rolleyes: Have a great day ladies!

Pam
 
Saturday I got new tires on my car (um why is rubber so expensive?) and then I helped my sister organize her pantry and kitchen. Everyone in my family seems to have a hoarder gene in them but somehow I missed inheriting that so they all look to me to help them get organized. Sunday I did Get Glutes and added on extra upper body work and then it was lazy day. This morning I did Imax 2. Do you like Pina Coladas?

Cheryl Great job on FlexTrain! Great job on Yoga Max plus housework! I hope you enjoy your 3 day weekend. It is nice that you get Remembrance Day off.

Janie Great job on disc 3! I hope you had a fabulous rest day. Banana bread sounds yummy! Save me a slice. Great job on Yoga Relax!

Pam Great job on X10 FBC + Great Glutes + FT abs! Great job on CF + core! That sounds like beautiful weather to be having in early November. We are now starting to head in to winter with snow (uck!) in the forecast for tonight. Hopefully no accumulation though.

Have a great day!
 
STS disc 3, Chest, shoulders and biceps.

Wanted to share my Paleo, no grain bread. It's a lot smaller than it looks, but it truly taste like bread. The texture is a little different, but hey, I can certainly get use to it. LOL

From my new cookbook, Against all Grain.

Pam, Your beach experience sounds so lovely. Great job on Crossfire plus core and for having it kick your butt!

Julie, Oh my, I have somewhat of a hoarder gene, but you should see Joey! Great job on Sunday's Get Glutes with the addition of extra upper body work. Also for this morning's Imax 2. I remember Pina Coladas.:)

Take care ladies,

Janie

Janie Nice job on Yoga Relax. Sometimes it is nice just to stretch.

Pam I am sure we will figure out something to do when we retire :D. Right now it seems that it can't get here fast enough. I would have enjoyed the day of sports more if our teams had won. Both our football and hockey teams both lost. You had a nice and relaxing weekend at the beach. Great job on Crossfire.

Julie It doesn't make sense does it on how much tires cost :confused:. We still need to change our tires from all season to our snow tires yet. Umm my DH seems to have a hoarder gene in him too. I would love to get our place organized but I just don't think it would go over too well :confused:. Great job on GG and your upper body work and today's Imax 2.

Janie Good work on STS disc 3 Chest Shoulders and Biceps. Your bread looks really good. What goes into it?

Today I did Butts and Guts that I missed last week. That was one I hadn't done in a long long time. After that our old neighbours who moved to Norway are here visiting so they came over for a while. It was great to catch up with them.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Julie I hear you about the tires. They cost so much and I can't tell a difference so I feel like I'm spending a ton of money for no benefit. I know they are important, but still.....Most of my family has the hoarder gene too. My brother and I are the ones who were lucky not to get it, but I'm still not great at organization. My DH can organize like nobody's business though, so that is nice! Great job on GG and your upper body work and Imax 2. Yes, I like pina coladas, but not jeannie hops! :p:D Our nice weather is coming to an abrupt end. They have been talking about this arctic chill that is coming tonight and tomorrow our high is only supposed to be 47. Brrrrrrrrrr

Janie Great job on STS disc 3. Your bread looks really good, what is it made with??

Cheryl Yes, I have no doubt that I will be able to keep myself busy when I retire. I am up for the challenge ;):rolleyes: Sorry that neither of :confused: Either that or I was half asleep the first time I did it?! I liked that first 2 sections a lot, but don't like the punching and kicking drills as much as the ones in KPC. Overall though, it was pretty good for a kickbox workout. I think the first two sections of this one with the drills from Hard Strikes would be a really good combo.....hmmmmmm...Anyway, I have lots of work to get done today so I better get at it. Have a great day!

Pam
 
So last night I dreamed it was Wednesday (not sure why) but I was a little disappointed when I woke up and realized it was only Tuesday. Oh well. I did do my Get Glutes workout and added on additional back work. Then I let the dogs out and got another surprise … snow. Only about a 1/2 inch but still.

Janie Great job on disc 3 and all those pushups! The bread looks very delicious. I went out and checked out the cookbook and it looks interesting. I would probably get it if it was strictly baking and dessert type recipes.

Cheryl Great job on B&G! Nice long one to do on your day off. How nice to visit your old neighbors. Are they originally from Norway? I am very thankful that my DH does not have a hoarder gene. We are both pretty neat and organized luckily.

Pam I actually did feel a smoother ride after getting my tires but I am sure that will not last long. I was happy that I got them this morning when I saw the snow. Ugh! I guess we won’t get out of winter this year.

Have a great day!
 
Pam Great job on Rockout Knockout. It is a fun workout to do.

Julie Not nice to dream that it is Wednesday when it is only Tuesday. It is great when it is Wednesday and you dream that it is Tuesday :p. Great job on your GG and back workout. Yuck snow....how many days until Spring :D. Heidi is from Norway and Jon is from here. They meet in Australia when they were both travelling and then moved back here for several years. They try to get back here at least once a year.

Janie The bread looks good. I will have to try it.

Today I did Kick Max cardio leg blast premix. The leg drills at the end are not easy.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
My foot needed a break so took it easy today. Watched Little People tonight. They had a dog named Rocky since they started on TV. Tonight he died of cancer. It was so sad and darn if I couldn't stop crying. Normally I don't watch this program but every now and then there is nothing else to watch.

Cheryl, Great job on Kick Max cardio leg blast premix. Good for you!

Pam, Winter is coming for sure. Enjoy your busy day.

Julie, Great job on Get Glutes workout and the addition of back work. Snow already? Wow!

Take care ladies,

Janie
 
Well I'm not sure what happened to my post from yesterday, but looks like I deleted a few lines! I was saying it is frustrating to watch sports when your teams don't win. I guess Cheryl at least figured out that my workout was Rockout Knockout. :rolleyes:

Julie Oh man, I hate that when you are a day off in the wrong direction. It's nice when it goes the other way though. Good job on GG and back work! Oh man, snow...yuck! We even had some flurries last night. What happened to that 70 and sunny from this weekend?! :mad:

Janie I took a look at that bread recipe. It looks interesting! I hope you are enjoying it!

Cheryl Great job on KM cardio leg blast. Those leg drills are killers! I don't actually have KM, but I have the leg drills because they are on one of the compilation discs.

Janie Oh, so sad about the dog on the Little People. :( That stuff always makes me cry too.

This morning was the day I was fearing - the entire X10 workout. I did it though and I have to say, it wasn't nearly as bad as I had built it up to be in my head. I'm thinking that all of the Tabatacise segments usually wears me out more. Of course, I was ready for it to be over by the end......:D Have a great day ladies!

Pam
 
This morning I did Afterburn Double Trouble premix. That is my favorite way to do that workout. I really don’t think I could do it straight through anymore. Brrr ... it was a brisk 24 degrees this morning when I stepped outside to take the garbage cans to the curb. That took the afterburn right out of me!

Janie Thanks for the link to the website. I looked around a little and found a chocolate chip cookie recipe that sounds like a good one to try sometime. I would be right there with you balling like a baby. It is so sad when animals die. Good job for listening to your body or foot that is and taking it easy.

Cheryl Great job on Kick Max cardio leg blast premix! Those leg drills always burn my quads out. I cry a little when I do them. I haven’t started the Spring countdown yet because technically it is not even Winter and it would be too depressing to know how many days we have left of this.

Pam I thought maybe you did Rockout Knockout but wasn’t sure. Anyway, good job on doing that one … better late than never, right? WOW, you are AMAZING!!! X10 in its entirety would scare me right out of doing it. I have to take breaks in between segments as it is. I am very impressed with your cardio capacity and hope to one day get close to that.

Have a great day!
 
Tonight was meso 1 disc 2, back and triceps. I ordered an ice cream and yogurt maker. Should receive it tomorrow. In the mean time, making yogurt tonight for frozen ice cream tomorrow. Hope it works the way I want. We'll see. Last night I had cauliflower and broccoli soup with pork in it. When I got to bed, I kept smelling something and thought maybe it was Rolly. Then I thought maybe Higgin accidentally threw up or peed on my bed. So, since Joey went to the beach house to set up some things, I decided to sleep in his bed and wash everything the next day. When I got in Joey's bed everything smelled so good. But after about a half hour things started to smell again. Then I decided it was me! Must have been the cauliflower and broccoli soup. LOL!



Pam, Great job on the Rockout Knockout and this morning the entire X10 workout! WOW! Good for you.

Julie, Yes, I bought some non dairy chocolate chips and wanting to try that recipe too. Great job on this mornings Afterburn Double Trouble premix. Yikes! 24 degrees is cold!

Take care ladies,

Janie

Janie Good for you in listening to your body and giving your foot a break. So sad about Rocky, I would be crying too.

Pam It took me a couple of time reading your post to figure out that it was Rockout Knockout :p. I was wondering what happened to the rest of your post. Great job on the entire X10 workout. I haven't done the whole thing yet but I have done most of them.

Julie Great job on Afterburn Double Trouble premix. I haven't done it that way yet maybe I should give it a try. Wow 24 degrees is cold that will sure wake you up. Still a month until Winter officially arrives and I am already looking forward to Spring :confused:.

Janie Good work on STS disc 2 back and triceps. Nice to have an ice cream and yogurt maker. Too funny about the smell when you went to bed. Who would have thought that soup would do that to you LOL.

Today was my day off. Wednesdays is our shopping day because I hate having to do it on a weekend. Back at it tomorrow.

Cheryl
 
Julie great job on AB double trouble. I like that premix too, but what I don't like is that the breaks were all removed! It is a little bit shorter and that is only because of the breaks! Brrrrrr is right, 24 degrees is too cold. I don't know what the temp was here, but it was cold. We are supposed to be back to 70 this weekend, but I don't think it is going to last. :( Well I would say that some days my cardio capacity is better than others. I am quite sure that there are days that I would not think X10 wasn't so bad, so I was lucky it came up on a good day!

Janie Great job on disc 2! Have fun with your ice cream and yogurt maker. I am having some friends over Saturday for dinner and am making homemade ice cream for dessert. It's one of the few desserts that my DH likes. What kind of yogurt did you make? OMG, your story about your soup and the smell had me laughing out loud! That is sooooo funny. I hope that the smell has gone by no!

Cheryl Well I am impressed with you sleuth skills! :) The thing that helped with doing all of X10 are the weight segments give you a little bit of a break from the cardio. I hope you enjoyed your rest day and shopping!

This morning for me was PRS 2 again. I have decided now that I know it a little better that I don't mind that one combo that I didn't like at first. This is a pretty good one overall, but I still think I like PRS 1 a little better. I added core 2 at the end because there doesn't seem to be any core work in the rotation this week :confused: I can't believe it is Thursday already, the week is flying by for me. Have a great day ladies,

Pam
