Strength in Numbers

Janie OMG, part pug and part chihuahua sounds adorable! i bet those walks are doing him some good if he needs to lose weight. Great job on yesterdays walk!

I'm doing random workouts this week since I am only here 3 days again and start STS on Monday! This morning was To The Max. Whew! I can really tell that I have had a lot of breaks in my cardio lately. I can't wait to stay home for awhile and get back on track. Have a great day!

Hope everyone had a wonderfully long weekend. The weather was beautiful around here. Saturday I did Get Glutes and then spent some time with my family. Sunday was Get Glutes again and then spent time DH’s family. Monday was a lazy day and Tuesday I did … wait for it … Get Glutes. I saw Cathe is putting out a new series. It sounds pretty interesting. I will be preordering and will probably take a break from Get Glutes to try them out.

Pam Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend! That swamp tour sounds like fun. I have heard of birds running alligators away from their nests but that would have been neat to see. That is amazing that Eric is doing that kind of a bike ride. Great job on Cardio & Weights! Don’t you wish every week was a 3 day work week. Great job on TTM! That’s quite a workout to pick for a random week.

Janie Great job on your walks and Bum Bum (he he I like that name)! I think taking a break from Cathe is perfectly fine. I haven’t done anything from her since the roadtrip in April but it doesn’t mean I still don’t love her. In fact I am excited about her new DVDs. I love the name Taco for a dog! So cute.

Have a great day!
 
Roll, Taco and I walked to beach for about 30 min. Will post my workout tonight later. Here is a photo of our shy Taco.
Will post my workout later. And testing what I can do in color with zentangles. It's just a test.

Just testing out my drawing of Fordite. It is paint remnants in the 50's or 60's paint shop (layered paint). Seem to have been long enough to harden and now able to make jewelry out of it. I think it would be toxic though.

Also here is a pic of the shy Taco.

Pam, I also am doing random workouts. Just had to go off track a little bit. Great job on To The Max. Yep, you can do so much being home with workouts.

Julie, Great job on Sat for doing Get Glutes. Aw, wonderful times with family. Also for doing Sun & Mon Get Glutes.

More walking on the beach except this time by myself for an hour.

Take care,

Janie

Julie I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the weekend and had beautiful weather! Great job on GGGGGG! I am going to be preordering the new series also. It sounds like it might be perfect timing for finishing up my STS rotation. I definitely could get used to 3 day work weeks!!

Janie Great job on your beach walks! Aw Taco is a cutie! I just love the fordite drawing...very cool! I think I would be afraid of wearing jewelry made out of the real stuff!

This morning I did my own combo. I was looking for something I hadn't done in awhile but wanted to do an hour of cardio, so I did the cardio portions of 10-10-10 and step and intervals. With the warm up and cool down it was just the right length. This afternoon I head to Myrtle beach for the weekend. Tomorrow morning my GF and I are going kayaking for the morning which should be fun. Have a great weekend if I don't get a chance to post.

Drizzle, and cold outside. I'm staying in to do artwork.

Pam, Great job 10-10-10 and step intervals. I LOVE 10-10-10! Enjoy Myrtle Beach with GF kayaking. Sounds like a lot of fun.

Take care and be safe,

Janie
 
My weeks have just been getting so crazy at work. I think it is going to be like this the next couple months too. Oh well, keep calm and lift on, right? That is what I did last night with Get Glutes.

Janie Great job on your walk with the puppies! Your artwork is amazing and it is nice to have something to do when it is rainy outside. OMG! Taco is adorable!

Pam Great job on your cardio mish mash! Kayaking and Myrtle Beach sounds great. Enjoy your long weekend.

Have a wonderful weekend!
 
Walked the beach first with my Joey for about 1/2 hr. then with Rolly and Taco for 45 min. Tonight is Muscle Max. Love this workout.

Julie, Aww, I know how being crazy at work is. Hugs. Great job with Get Glutes. YaHoo!

Take care,

Janie
 
Slipped today on my workout. Been doing art work, playing the guitar and registering to sell at the gallery and tagging some jewelry. Instead of a rest day tomorrow I guess I took mine today. I'll work it hard tomorrow, thinking a full body workout again. I like those right now.

Janie
 
Walked the beach for 2 hours with Rolly and Taco. Tonight was Muscle Max. Did I say I liked that one? LOL Will have one more guitar lesson sometime this week. I'm very excited about it, but sad it will be my last lesson from him. He's a good teacher. This time he will teach me 4 songs with chords A, D and E. I know the chords well, except my mind and fingers don't work together, I'm so slow. I guess in time they will. Hoping he can also teach me how to play faster.

Janie
 
Can't believe it is Monday already! I don't really feel like I had a weekend in there. Really didn't do much but already back at work for another 5 days. I think I need to retire. Too bad that is 30 years away. Oh well. Saturday I did Get Glutes then DH and I took Maggie to the vet for her annual check up and then spent the afternoon at my mom's grooming the dogs and visiting. Sunday was a lazy day after Get Glutes.

Janie Great job on your walks and Muscle Max! I am loving full body workouts right now. I have had no desire to go back to body part splits. I was really hoping Cathe's new series would be full body workouts not splits but no such luck. I am sure you are amazing on the guitar. Enjoy your last lesson.

Have a great day!
 
Janie It sounds like you made a smart choice staying in to do artwork instead of going outside when it was drizzly and cold.

Julie Good job working off you stress with Get Glutes! Cardio mishmash was the perfect description for my workout last Thursday!

Janie Great job on your beach walks with Joey, Rolly and Taco! Great job on Muscle Max too! Wow, plus a 2 hour beach walk too! Don't worry about switching out your rest day, sometimes it's important! It sounds like you had a great day doing art work, palying guitar and registering at the gallery. Plus you made up for it with your double workout the next day. Too bad you are almost done with your guitar lessons, but it sounds like you have really learned a lot.

Julie I can't believe it's Monday already either, and I had another long weekend! I am so ready to have some time at home though. Great job on GG. I hope you enjoyed your lazy Sunday.

Cheryl I hope we haven't lost you! Hope you are doing well!

The kayaking on Friday was really fun. We went about 9 miles altogether and really enjoyed seeing all of the baby birds in the nests. It was really smelly though, it smelled like a chicken coop! On Saturday morning we went for a bike ride for about an hour and then Sunday was a rest and hang out at the pool day. This morning I started STS with Disc 1. I think it's called push ups, push ups and then some more push ups! DH said he wanted to do it with me, but guess who didn't get out of bed...?! :rolleyes: I'm excited for another STS rotation though. Happy Monday.

Pam
 
Happy Tuesday ladies! This morning for me was 40/20 and I added the first Core Max. Great workout in less than an hour, I love it. Last night I got a little bonus workout in outside. I finished raking leaves from the side of the house and then spread some more mulch. I will be very happy when all of the mulch has been spread :D It is a great workout though! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Today Joey and I went bike riding around the cranberry bogs. So much fun! Tonight will post again, I plan on doing the Wedding Video. I may take the dogs out for a beach walk as well.

Julie, Great job on Sat. Get Glutes and spending time with family. How is Maggie doing? I too was hoping for full body workouts on Cathe's new DVDs.:(

Pam, I would like a lot more lessons in playing the guitar, but unless he changes his mind, it looks sadly like one more lesson. :( He's just too busy doing other things and living a life. LOL I'm glad you enjoyed your Fridays kayaking. Love nature! And for Sat. bike ride and a nice rest by the pool on Sun. Sounds heavenly. Great job starting STS disc 1. Yep, lots and lots of push ups.:rolleyes:

Pam, Great job on this mornings 40/20 with the addition of Core Max. And for doing yard work, I agree it is a fantastic workout.

Take care,

Janie
 
Janie Your bike ride with Joey sounds very nice! I would love to see cranberry bogs. Sorry you won't be able to take more lessons, maybe he will be available again at some point? Sorry for the Facebook scream last night, but thanks for your Hugs! Sometimes the kids mother just pulls little things that get me so angry. The joys of being a step-mother :rolleyes:

Last night I did a few more loads of mulch and this morning was STS disc 2. I am still feeling those push ups from Monday, ouch. I'm pretty excited to be doing another STS rotation though. DH has been lifting weights in the evening so far and I am making us nice light and healthy meals since we both want to shape up for the summer. Happy Hump Day!

Pam
 
Of course walked the beach yesterday with the two doggies for about an hour. Also did MM.

Pam, Oh, do I know the joys of being a Stepmother, believe you me! I have screamed as well. It's awful hard sometimes. LOL:rolleyes: I know...hang in there kiddo. Maybe it's spa time. (more hugs to you).

Great job on mulching and STS disc 2. I'm excited for you doing another STS. Glad to see your honey exercising as well.

Janie
 
Thought I better try to get in here and post early before work gets crazy again. Monday DH and I took the dogs to the park for a little while. It was beautiful outside. Tuesday I did Get Gltues. Last night was rainy and yucky.

Janie Great job on your walks and MM!

Pam Great job on starting STS again! Are you following a certain rotation for cardio or just picking what you feel like that day?

Have a great day!
 
Janie Great job on your long beach walk and MM! At least the screaming helps ;):D And it just so happens that I made myself a pedicure appt for Saturday morning, that should help :D

Julie Sorry to hear that things are still so crazy for you at work. I'm glad you got out and enjoyed the beautiful weather at the park on Monday. I'm sure they were happy too! Great job on GG on Tuesday. I am doing the 3 1/2 month STS/Shock cardio rotation. Pretty sure that means that CCC is in my future......:confused::rolleyes:

This morning for me was MMA Boxing. It's not really one of my favorites, but was ok for a change. I had to go to the dentist this morning because I chipped a tooth yesterday. Luckily it didn't hurt at all and the fix was quick and easy with no Novocain. I hope everyone is having a great week!

Pam
 
Happy Friday! We are starting what I hope is going to be the last crazy weekend for awhile. My MIL come into town last night for Carl's graduation this weekend and we are having DH and my family's over for dinner tonight to celebrate. Since I'm working today, I put together the menu, did the shopping, and left my MIL with a list of to-dos and recipes :D She loves doing this stuff though, so I think she's happy about it (at least I hope so! ;)) Ashley came home late last night so she will be helping her grandmother too.

This morning was STS disc 3 legs. I have a feeling I will be having trouble with the toilet test tomorrow! I have done 2 STS rotations and always do the bonus sections of the leg workouts, but I did not remember some of the exercises that we did this morning :rolleyes::confused: Those fan in fan out lifts over the ball were tough! First week of STS is in the bag though! :D Happy Friday and I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Pam
 
I finished month 8 of Get Glutes last night (I am so ready to move on to a new month) and then took the dogs to the park again for a little bit. Also so ready for the weekend although it is looking like I might need to take some work home with me this weekend. :mad::(

Pam Great job on MMA Boxing and STS disc 3! Hmm I am betting you will encounter CCC more than once in the near future. Hope you all have a wonderful time visiting for Carl's graduation. That is nice that your MIL and Ashlety are going to help out in getting everything ready. Hopefully you won't have too much trouble with the toilet test tomorrow.

Have a great weekend!
 
Went bike riding for about 10 miles with my Joey and once, while I was going straight and he was turning right we collided. He was my hero, while we were falling (in slow motion) Joey kept me balanced so I wouldn't fall, however he did. Luckily we didn't get hurt. No scratches, maybe a bruise or two. Whew! Tonight was Supercut. Love these oldies.

Julie, Great job for going to the park and giving the dogs a time out there. For also doing Tues. Get Glutes. So sorry about the rainy weather you are having. Lets hope things at work calm down some.

Pam, Yea, so glad you are going for a much needed pedicure for Sat. Enjoy! Great job on this morning MMA Boxing. Yeah I agree about not being my favorite but it does change things up a bit. Isn't it something that they can now fix a tooth without Novocain. Hope you have a fantastic weekend.

Pam, Hoping also this will be your last crazy weekend. Seemed to me it lasted a very long time. So now just breath. Sounds like a wonderful time with family and your MIL with the to-do list. Great job on doing STS disc 3 legs. Congrats on the DOM's for tomorrow and the toilet test. LOL You are doing well with STS, it's not easy even the 2nd time through.

Julie, Congratulations ofr finishing month 8 of Get Glutes. YaHoo! And for taking the dogs to the park again. Awww, sorry about having to take work home with you. Try to have some fun.

Take care everyone,

Janie
