Strength in Numbers

Janie Good for you for slowing down where you can, you don't need all that stress this time of year. ICE will be there when you are ready to get back into it!

Cheryl Yes, my stretching is really suffering because I end up playing with kittens instead, but that's ok for now :). Great job on XTrain CLB, that is a fun one!

Julie Great job on legs and back, glad to hear that the workout improved for you! I don't do lightened recipes of anything. I figure if I'm going to go for it I go for it and just cut back on my serving size.

This morning I did Athletic Training. I hadn't done it in a long time and I got a great workout in. Today I'm working at home and Butters is asleep on my desk snoring :rolleyes:. We have a crazy week this week, with something going on every night except last night, so I need to be disciplined to get all of my workouts in! Have a great day!

Good Morning,

I got my new KCM workouts yesterday unfortunately I can't do them yet. I have my first follow up today hoping for good news. We don't have room for a tree and I think that is what is keeping me from being in Christmas mode. My DD is dialated so new grandson will be here soon.
 
Julie Good job on your workout. Sometimes you don't feel like doing it at first but once you get into it you really get into the groove. We do live in a great location, I really like it here and 15 minutes from us driving we are in the forests and lakes. The weather isn't always nice though, we are getting a lot of rain right now.

Pam Good job on Athletic Training. Too funny about Butters snoring. Tango does that as well, well maybe it is more like nose whistles :p. You do have a crazy week ahead. Have fun.

Roxie I hope your follow up goes well today and you won't have to wait too long to try out your new workouts. How exciting to be expecting your new grandson soon.

Today I did RWH LIHI #1 and Abs #1. It was another dreary day out, it wouldn't stop raining all day. In the afternoon I decided to go to the mall to pick up a few things and to get out of the house. Tomorrow is suppose to be nice but we will be back to the rain again after that :(.

Have a great day everyone.
 
Last night I did yoga. After that, I had to make brownies for our unit Christmas party that is today.

Pam Great job on AT! I haven’t done that one in forever. I’m sure you will get your workouts in. You are super dedicated and motivating to me with getting them in.

Roxie How exciting new workouts and a new grandson! I know you can’t do the workouts yet but hey you can preview to your heart’s desire.

Cheryl Great job on RWH LIH 1 + abs 1! We have been having rain and overcast cloudy days for ever it seems now. Dare I say I am ready for Spring and we haven’t even hit the first day of winter yet.

Have a great day!
 
Roxie Congratulations on the new workouts. You can preview them and be in great shape to start them off with a bang when you are able to workout again. How did your follow up go? Well, I hope! How exciting that you will have a new grandson anytime, that is a great Christmas present!

Cheryl Nose whistles, huh? Nice! o_O Butters is a big grunter too. He's more like a little pig than a cat! :D Great job on RWH LIHI and abs #1! I hope you get out and enjoy that nice day before the rain starts again.

Julie Great job on yoga and bake max! I hope you had fun at your Christmas party!

This morning I did STS Total Body and the abs from LIC. I have been dusting off some of the old workouts that I haven't done in awhile this week. I can't wait to be following a rotation again though! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Good Afternoon,

My follow up went well I still can't work for 2 more weeks butbshe says I can walk at 3mph and to light 3lb wts just no bending over, jumping or pushups and still no house cleaning. Babysitting the grandson today he had a fever yesterday so couldn't go to daycare. I previewed one of the new workouts ans it looked bettet than I tjouit was.

Pam-good job with STS.

Julie-how was the party?

Cheryl-the sun finally came out here.
 
Julie good work on yoga. You are doing well with getting it in every week. How did your party go? Too funny that you are ready for spring and we haven't even hit winter yet.

Pam good work on STS Total Body and the abs from LIC. It is kinda nice to do some of the older workouts that don't get into a rotation that often.

Roxie I am glad to hear that your follow up went well. Nice that you can start doing some things now.

Today I did XTrain Chest, Back and Shoulders. Then I did some housework and I was going to go out for a walk in the afternoon but somehow the day got away from me :confused:. So I never did get a chance to really enjoy the blue sky and no rain. We did get out around 4pm to go and pick something up and on the way we saw a deer crossing the road. I guess they were also enjoying the sunshine.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Yesterday, my unit had a Holiday Party and we got to go home early. I got home about 90 minutes early so it was nice to get RWH Plyo 2 done early. Made for a weird night because I kept thinking it was later than it was. I also went to bed early too. I think I started falling asleep a little before 8. Whoops!

Pam Great job on STS TB + abs from LIC! Wow did you do abs twice? Once in STS and from LIC! You are really putting me to shame with my lack of core work.

Roxie That sounds like great news and like you are making progress towards healing. I will take the no housecleaning doctors orders any day! Poor grandson. I hope he gets better soon. The party was good. Went by fast and best part was we got to go home early!

Cheryl Great job on XT CBS! Bummer on not being able to get in a walk and enjoy the sunshine. Hopefully it sticks around for you. We are finally getting cold. Down in the 30s today through the weekend. I know it is not winter cold but it is the start. The part was good. I ate way too much pasta but hey I don’t do it often.

Have a great day!
 
Roxie I'm glad to hear that your follow up went went. Nice that you got the ok to start doing something too.

Cheryl Great job on XTrain CST and your housework. Too bad you weren't able to get your walk in, but at least you got in a little. The deer are out in full force around here right now. My DH came home from work the other day and said that someone had hit one just up the street and then 4 ran across in front of his car on the next road. It always makes me nervous when I see them near the road when I'm driving!

Julie I'm glad that you holiday party was nice and that you got to gone home early, Great job on RWH Plyo 2, that was my workout this morning . I tacked on the LIC abs yesterday because those STS TB abs are pretty short and not very tough. You are putting me to shame with my lack of yoga, so we are even! :D

Last nights party was a retirement party and it was really nice, I got to see and talk to a lot of people that I haven't seen in awhile. I did not want to get up this morning though! I decided to hit the snooze a couple of times and then did RWH Plyo hiit 2. Happy Thursday, only 2 more days or work for me this year!! :):D

Pam
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill today and my legs were shaking. Went into work to let the boss know when I could go back I guess they really miss me.
 
Julie Good job on RWH Plyo 2. Nice that you got to go home early but it does mess things up a bit doesn't it. I wouldn't worry about eating too much pasta if you don't do it very often. Maybe that was why you were falling asleep but 8 since it was more carbs than you are used to.

Pam It makes me nervous too when I see an animal right beside the road. You never know what they are going to do. It is always nice to go to a party and see people you haven't seen in a while. Good for you in getting up and doing RWH Plyo 2. What a nice feeling to have only two more work days this year.

Roxie Way to go with your treadmill work. It will take time to get your energy back. It is so nice to be missed, it lets them know how much work you do when you are there.

Today I did MMA Fusion. Then I went and got groceries. I think I want to avoid the grocery stores next week as it was really crazy today. It was cold and nasty outside today too. We had mixed rain and snow but it wasn't quite cold enough to have it stick.

Cheryl
 
Last night I did weights for legs and triceps. I was in the middle of my warm up when the doorbell rang. I went up to answer it in my workout clothes. It was a neighbor kid selling doughnuts for a school fundraiser. I was like um, I don’t think so. I am trying to get rid of the fat and fluff not add to it. DH wanted to help out so he bought a dozen and now I need to figure out what to do with a dozen doughnuts. We don’t get them until a Saturday in January so I can’t even bring them to work the next day.

Pam Great job on Plyo HiiT 2 after the retirement party! Sounds like you had a good time catching up with people.

Roxie Great job on your treadmill walk! How nice that they miss you!

Cheryl Great job on MMA Fusion and those turtle spins! That’s a good plan to get the grocery shopping done before the last minute rush. I am going Sunday and hoping it is not too bad then. I hadn't thought about the pasta being the reason I was tired. Carb overload maybe.

Have a great day!
 
Roxie Great job getting a treadmill walk in. It's nice to be missed, huh? It will make them appreciate you when you come back!

Cheryl Well I should qualify my two more work days. I have a couple of meetings next week that I have to do, but they will just be quick meetings and hopefully no follow on work as a result! Great job on MMA Fusion. Oh yes, the grocery stores will be a mad house next week I'm sure. I usually try to go first thing in the morning before they get too nuts.

Julie Great job on your leg and tricep workout. Oh boy, a dozen donuts. I wonder if you can freeze them and then take them in to work the following week? That is the last thing you wanted to hear about when you are working out. If I'm working out I ignore the doorbell and the phone.

This morning was To the Max Extreme for me. It just about killed me! So far I am making it through the party season and still not putting on any weight. :D That has been my goal. We still have a retirement dinner tonight and a caroling party tomorrow, so wish me luck! OMG, I had to come back and edit because I almost forgot to mention that I got a shipping notice from Cathe yesterday!! My DH already told me that he is confiscating the package and putting it under the tree. I might have to sneak a couple out to try before Christmas though.....! Happy Friday!

Pam
 
Julie good work on your weight work for legs and triceps. Oh no not doughnuts. Since DH decided to buy the doughnuts I think he needs to figure out what to do with them :).

Pam I hope your meetings next week are short and no follow-up needed. Good job on To the Max Extreme and not putting on any weight. I got a shipping notice too but I know I may not get it until January. I also got a shipping notice for my calendar on Monday and it still shows that it is in transit to me.

Roxie sorry that you are having pain in your stomach. I hope you feel better tomorrow.

Today I did XTrain Bis and Tris. Then I got all the housework and laundry done. I have a party to go to tomorrow night so I am hoping not to put on any additional weight either :D.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Cheryl
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes than did KCM Stepbox Dumbbell Drills using 3lb weights skipped a drill I am not allowed to do and modified some now I am tired.
 
Good Morning,

I walked on the treadmill this morning had to go slower my legs are sore. DH is busy making candy and cookies he is going to make it hard to maintain my weight. I received a shopping notice so anxiously awaiting my new workouts only ordered two but I think they are going to be just what I need.
 
Saturday morning I had to wake up a little earlier than normal to get my weights for legs and back in. After that, headed to my family for Christmas party #1 and then in the afternoon ran home to feed the dogs before heading to my in-laws for Christmas party #2. After that, we had to do our grocery shopping so we wouldn’t have to head back in to town again on Sunday. Sunday morning I did RWH LIHI CST and Bis. Then it was laziness the rest of the day. I don’t know what was going on but I got horrible sleep last night. I tossed and turned until about 10 and then my Maggie woke me up around 3:30 because she thought it was time to get up and eat. Only 1:30 early!

Pam Great job on TTM Extreme! You are doing very good with your goal.

Roxie Glad to see your stomach pain did not last too long. Great job on your TM workout and KCM Stepbox DD! Great job on your TM walk! It is good to go slow sometimes.

Cheryl Great job on XT Bis & Tris! I am sure you will do great at the party.

Have a great day!
 
Roxie Sorry to hear you were having pain but glad to see it looks like it went away quickly and you have been able to get some activity in.

Cheryl Great job on XTrain Bis and Tris and getting all of your housework and laundry done. I am still trying to get my laundry done and still have Christmas shopping to do. UGH. I hope you made it through your party ok! I did creep up in weight a tiny bit, but it was less than half a pound, so I'm thinking I'll be able to make that up before Christmas :rolleyes:. I am making my cookies today though, so adding to the temptation! :eek:

Roxie Great on your treadmill walk and KCM Stepbox dumbbell drills. Also on your treadmill walk. It looks like we are all anxiously awaiting packages from Cathe!

Julie Great job getting your weights in before your double header parties. I hope they were fun. Great job on RWH LIHI CST and Bis. is there a premix that adds Bis to that, or do you just add them in? Sorry you had such a bad sleep last night and what is up with that Maggie wanting breakfast so early?!

I took Saturday as a rest day and Sunday was RWH Hiit circuit upper body and abs #2. We finally got our Christmas tree decorated on Saturday too! This morning I did Step Blast and plan to finish my laundry that I've been trying to do all weekend and baking. It was so nice to have an evening at home last night after 5 nights out! Have a great day!
