Strength in Numbers

Julie Great job on Intensity. It is one of those workouts that never seems to get any easier. Maybe it was your meeting that threw you off in thinking that it was Wednesday today instead of Thursday. I will take those mix ups over thinking it is the other way around.:D

Today I did Crossfire. Yowza that was a tough one but I made it through. My butt is now feeling the affects of the workouts this week.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
So yesterday was Afterburn. I was really feeling it after Super Cuts and Crossfire but I did it. Today was RWH Low Impact Hit #1.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Cheryl
 
Janie I saw your post just after I posted mine. Glad to hear that you are still alive and working out. Post when you are able.

Cheryl
 
Good Evening,

I did Lean Leg and Abs Timesaver 3 Chair, Firewalker and Bonus Barre trying to get my hips to look smaller. I opened my blinds this morning and standing in my front yard was a momma deer and two young ones couldn't believe it I live in town.
 
Work blew up on me on Friday so I didn’t get a chance to post. I did do a workout Thursday with weights for legs and triceps. Saturday I did weights legs and back and then ran a lot of errands and did some chores around the house including cleaning out my deep freezer. Sunday I did Burn Sets CST and Bis.

Cheryl Great job on CrossFire! Gotta love those butt DOMS. Great job on AB and RWH LIH 1!

Janie Glad to hear from you! Great job on keeping up with working out while you are so busy.

Roxie Great job on LLA timesaver! Aw how adorable. I would love to see that.

Have a great day!
 
I'm back from a very lazy week in Napa!

Cheryl Great job on Yoga Max and Great Glutes! I did that one again this morning since I missed the rest of last week.

Roxie Great job on day 1 week 3 of your rotation and your spin workout. I hope you had fun with your GS. U

Cheryl Great job on RK!

Julie Great job on your leg and back workout and also your core :) Good for you for doing 30 minutes of yoga after you got home exhausted too. I'm impressed!

Cheryl Great job on SC and doing all of the push ups on your toes!!! I'm not sure if I have ever done that. I guess I have a challenge to try to live up to this week! Yeah you for sure!

Julie Great job on Intensity step. I think the thing with that one is that she starts into the high intensity right away and never lets off. It certainly is a killer!

Cheryl Great job on CF, it sure is a toughie! I guess my butt has quite the week in store for it! :D

Janie Glad to hear you are still alive and doing workouts! Just do what you can when you can!

Cheryl Great job on AB. That woudl be a really tough one when your butt is already hurting! I'm not sure what it is about that workout, but my butt usually hurts for days afterward. Great job on RWHLI Hiit too!

Roxie Great job on LL&A. Wow, I hope those deer survive in town! We see them around our house all the time, but we are kind've out in the country.

Julie Great job on your leg and triceps workout, legs and back and BS CST and Bis!

I didn't do any workouts of any description while we were gone last week :oops:. I did drink a lot of wine and eat a lot of food though! :eek: So I have to really clamp down between now and Thanksgiving! I decided to go back to the beginning of last week in the rotation and work from there, so I will be a week behind Cheryl now. This morning was GG, a good way to ease back into it. Of course I had to drag myself out of bed with the 3 hour time difference, but I survived. Have a great day!

Roxie Good job on Lean Legs and Abs Timesaver. So cool to have deer in your yard. I love it when wildlife comes to visit, though for us it usually means bears.

Julie Sorry that work blew up on you on Friday. Good work with all of your weight work, errands and Burn Sets CST and Bis.

Pam Welcome back. I saw your pictures on FB and it looked like you had fun. I would love to drink lots of wine and eat lots for food :D. I found that last weeks rotation the one you are on now really tuckered me out. Let me know how you feel by Friday. Good work on GG with the 3 hour time difference.

So yesterday I did Yoga Relax and today was LIHI Legs. Just saw Cathe's update and it looks like ICE is closer to getting to us.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Last night I did weights for legs & back. I got terrible sleep last night. Ozzie kept kicking me in the head. I have a feeling today is going to be a long day.

Pam So glad you are back but sounds like you had a great week. Great job on dragging yourself out of bed and doing GG! It is good to ease back into things.

Cheryl Great job on YR and LIHI Legs! It’s weird, I am very excited about ICE but I am not sure I will stop my current rotation to do it yet. Guess we’ll see how I feel when it gets here.

Roxie Great job on KCM Kickboxing! It is really cold and wet here too. It’s supposed to be that way today and tomorrow and possible snow on Saturday. Ick!

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl great job on YR and LIHI legs! I will have to see how I'm feeling by Friday with this weeks workouts too. My butt is a little sore today after GG yesterday!

Roxie Great job on KCM Kickboxing. Bummer that it is cold and wet, but hopefully it was nice to have a quiet day.

Julie Great job on your leg and back Workout! Sorry to hear you had a lousy sleep, I hope tonight is better.

This morning for me was Rockout Knockout. I really wasn't feeling like getting up for it, but it flew by. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Roxie good work on KCM Kickboxing. It is cold and wet here too.

Julie good work on your weight work for legs and back. Those darn pets and what they do to us when we are trying to sleep. I hope you get a better sleep tonight. See how you feel when you get ICE. If you like your current rotation keep doing it, ICE will still be there when you are ready for it.

Pam Good job on Rockout Knockout.

Today was LIHI Chest, Shoulders and Triceps. The push ups really do me in. I am noticing that I am starting to get arthritis in my fingers and the joints in my arms so I can't always lift as heavy as I would like to. It is hard sometimes trying to hang onto the weights. It is so much fun to get older :rolleyes:. The weather was nasty here today too. It was raining really hard this morning and then a huge windstorm rolled in. I kept looking at the big fir trees right behind our place hoping that they wouldn't crash into our roof.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Last night I got home late because we had to go help DH’s sister get a new car. I did get 25 minutes of yoga in. I did get better sleep tonight. I am still in search of getting that deep restorative sleep that some people get. I feel like even when I sleep throughout the night, it is a light sleep and not very restful.

Pam Great job on RK! So glad it flew by when you weren’t really feeling like doing it.

Cheryl Great job on LHI CST! Oh no, I’m sorry about the arthritis. You could look into straps or Versa Gripps and see if that helps with being able to grasp the weight for longer. You are one tough cookie though with keeping at it.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on LHI CST. The pushups in that are killers. I really enjoyed doing the premix that doesn't have the finishers! That is a bummer about the arthritis, getting old is really annoying, isn't it?! But as I always say, it's better than the alternative!;) That sounds like a scary windstorm, glad you survived without any damage.

Julie Great job getting in some yoga despite getting home late. I am really proud of you - 3 weeks in a row! You are definitely putting me to shame! I used to get those really sound restorative sleeps, but it just seems like it doesn't happen any more. Another joy of getting older I guess.

This morning was Supercuts. It felt like it really dragged, despite being only 45 minutes long. I did do all of the pushups on my toes, only because Cheryl did! I have to say that a judge probably wouldn't have given me the very last one though :oops: I also kept up with Cathe and crew for the entire 8 rounds which I have never done before. I am usually starting the last round of pushups when they are done, so that felt like an accomplishment too. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good for you in getting some yoga in with getting home late. I wasn't getting those restorative sleeps either and I would wake up more tired than when I went to bed, but since getting my CPAP machine I now wake up feeling rested. I do have straps and I use them when I am doing something like rows but I don't feel like I have a good grip if I am doing things like dumbbell presses either o_O. Oh well I will do what I can.

Pam Good work on Supercuts. I pushed you on the push ups did I :D. I also kept up with Cathe and the gang for the entire 8 rounds too which I also had never done before. YEAH US...... The arthritis is annoying and so is getting older with all the aches and pains. I would hate to see what I would be like if I didn't workout or eat healthy.

So I woke up to noise this morning around 5:45 in our garbage enclosure which is just outside our place. I couldn't see anything but I knew it was bears getting into something. Some of our neighbours posted on FB that there were 4 bears getting into the organic recycling. So later that day me and one of our other neighbours cleaned up the mess the bears had made. One of our other neighbours took a video of them because she had a good view of them and showed it to me. They had a great time working their way into all of the garbage enclosures in our complex. I also cleaned up the mess from the windstorm yesterday. There were leaves and branches all over the place. I did PRS #1 this morning. It had #2 listed but I had already done that one a couple of weeks ago so I thought I would do #1 instead.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Checking in. Doing my own Cathe workouts, and keeping at a minimum. At least I'm doing something everyday except the weekends. I promised myself when ICE comes to our homes, will concentrate even more on exercising. I can't wait for this series. I feel it will be the best for me.

Janie
 
Last night I did Intensity Hiits only. This is a tough section but I compared my heart rate and calorie burn to the step only I did last week and the step burned more calories and kept my average and max heart rate much higher. Good to know I am not imagining it.

Pam Great job on Supercuts! I really like that one and am surprised it felt like it was dragging because it always flies by for me. Awesome job on the pushups! That is a great accomplishment.

Cheryl Great job on PRS1! I love hearing your wildlife tales. Something I don’t get to experience here. So glad everyone was safe. Sounds like you got a second workout cleaning up their mess and the mess from the wind.

Janie Great job on keeping up with your workouts. Doing something is important and you are doing that.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Oh yes, you pushed me on the pushups. I would have been on my toes for most of the last two sets if it hadn't been for you! You are so right about the workouts, I don't know how people who don't work out and eat such bad foods do it. Of course my workouts cause some of my aches and pains, but still......
Wow, I just can't get over the fact that you have bears! That would be fun watching the video of them having their fun, but not so much cleaning up after it! Great job on PRS #1. I noticed that PRS 2 was in the rotation twice and was wondering if that was a mistake.

Janie It's great to hear from you. Just keep doing what you can do. It looks like ICE will be arriving very soon now based on the latest posts! I just love getting new workouts!

Julie Great job on Intensity Hiits. I always thought that the step section was the hardest part of that workout. Your comparison is interesting though because I am also probably not giving the Hiits their all right after the step portion. I'm not sure why Supercuts dragged so much for me yesterday, I don't remember ever feeling like that with that workout before. .

This morning was Crossfire. I found myself wondering why it doesn't have the dread factor of some of the other workouts because it is pretty tough. I did NOT make it through all of the jack push ups. I did about 12 of the first set and 7 of the second set and then had to drop to my knees to finish. It will be interesting how I'm feelling for Afterburn tomorrow....! Have a great day, can't believe it's only Thursday. This week is dragging too.

Pam
 
Janie Glad to hear from you. Good for you in keeping up with your workouts. ICE will soon be here.

Julie Good work on Intensity Hiits. I believe you when you say the step portion burned more calories. That is one tough section in that workout. Yep I did get another workout from cleaning up all the messes.

Pam It is neat having bears around but you do need to be aware when you are out and about. I figured that she made a mistake with PRS #2 being listed twice. Good job on Crossfire.

Today was AOLIH. It is a fun and short one. This afternoon I went out for a walk to our local park. It was so nice out I didn't want to be indoors. No bears this time though :D.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Last night I did weights for legs and triceps. I forgot my phone today at home. I feel so naked and exposed. I hate it. But I guess I can’t complain too much since it is Friday.

Pam Great job on CF! Oh boy AB is on tap for tomorrow with all those pushups too. At least in AB the pushups are broken up by a burpee in between. Hmm! Maybe I should do Intensity in its entirety next time but separate out my workouts on my heart rate to see if I don’t work as hard in the hiits after the step. Probably.

Cheryl Great job on AOLIH! That is a goodie and one I was thinking about doing while I was doing Intensity Hiit. Is it strange I was thinking about another workout while doing a workout?

Have a great day!
