Strength in Numbers

I'm back and resting up from the drive to Shelton. Tomorrow will drive to our beach house. I'm missing Joe and the pups.

Will catch up with everyone tomorrow.

So good to be back home,

Janie
 
Hmm, No accountabilities? Me neither. I was hoping to find a lot of posts. LOL! Come on back now...

I'm Back home at the beach house. O yeah... Didn't do any exercises. Traveling was chaotic and wonderful, so I skipped it until I got home and will do them tomorrow.
 
Cheryl, Great fun with your dragon boating! Also for doing disc 27 shoulders, biceps and triceps. Then your housework, laundry and a bit of cleaning outside. Whew!

Pam, In Seattle walking down the Fisherman's wharf is great fun! Then dinner after, good for you. Walking was good. Proud of you. Also for this mornings treadmill. My least favorite too, but... 3.5 miles was great. Good for you.

Julie, So glad to hear Maggie is doing better! YaHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great job doing Live Legs Nd Glutes. Congrats on DOM legs.

Take care everyone,

Janie
 
Another weekend that flew by. I even took a few hours off work early Friday but it still went by so fast. I did do Live Muscle Max on Saturday. It was a lot of fun and I would say better than the DVD which is crazy to come out of my mouth since the DVD was my first weight lifting foray with Cathe so it is very sentimental to me. After that I did quite a bit of housework. Sunday I did Metabolic Mashup which was also a lot of fun. After that is was being lazy the rest of the day.

Pam Great job on doing the dreadmill! That is definitely my least favorite cardio machine too. Oh yum! I love clam chowder. Hope you had a restful day at home before heading back out to travel.

Janie Glad you are back. Hope you had a fabulous time. Sorry no posts over the weekend. I have a hard time getting motivated to get on the computer over the weekend when I am on it all week long. Great job on your 20 min. bike ride!

Have a great day!
 
Julie I am so glad that Maggie is doing better. We did the same thing with Tigger to just let him live his life out as comfortably as possible. Good job on Live Legs & Glutes. We can see both the adults and pups but it is a little too early to see the pups yet. Hopefully we will in the next couple of weeks.

Pam Good luck with getting your mother in a assisted living home. Too bad they still look at it as it was years ago instead of the changes that have been made. Good job on your favorite machine LOL.

Janie Glad that you got home safe and sound. Way to go on your cardio on the bike.

Julie Good work on Live Muscle Max , Metabolic Mashup and all of your housework.

So Friday I did RWH LI #1. Then we left early to pick up my MIL to take her out for a bit. We went to the independent living home to show her and they invited us to stay for lunch. She likes it but says she still isn't ready for it just yet. Saturday I went Dragon Boating early in the morning so that was my workout for the day. Sunday I did Yoga Relax and I really needed it after Saturday's workout. This morning was disc 28 Chest and Back. Wow I can't believe it I remembered all my workouts for once :rolleyes:.

Have a great day everyone.

Last night I did Live Trisets Legs! It was tough. Some of that may have been due to the fact I didn’t get good sleep the night before. I was worried when I was in the first round of the first triset and thinking I wouldn’t make it until the end but I did. I think another reason it was so hard is that Cathe does not give you much rest time. You move from one exercise to the next and one round to the next without much time to wipe sweat or get a quick sip of water. Definite cardio effect.

Cheryl Great job on RWH LI 1! Well I guess that is a step closer that your MIL likes the place. Maybe she will give it more thought and decide it would be a good move. Great job on dragon boating, yoga relax, and disc 28! I think I will be ready for yoga or some type of stretching tonight after trisets legs yesterday.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Good work on Live Trisets Legs even when you were not feeling up to it. I really like the trisets in STS meso 2 but we do get rests in between the trisets.

This morning was Hardstrikes one I hadn't done in a while. I am hoping that there will be dragon boating tonight. It is a bit rainy out so I don't know if we will get enough people to take the boat out. Fingers crossed.

Cheryl
 
I swear I posted just yesterday...Hmm... Times gets away from me. Found out I'll be performing a few times this Summer. It's going to be so much fun! Been practicing a lot lately. Did another cardio by walking on the beach with some speed for about 30 min.

Cheryl, Great job on Hardstrikes.

Julie, Great job on Live trisets Legs. Yeah, not enough sleep can cause a tough w/o for sure. Congrats for making it through the parts you didn't think you would. YaHoo!

Take care everyone,

Janie
 
Last night I did yoga. It was nice to get a little stretching in. I didn’t have quite the DOMS I was expecting from Monday’s Trisets Legs. More of a dull ache which is good.

Cheryl Great job on HS! I hope you were able to go dragon boating last night. I was a little bummed that the trisets live workout didn’t have more breaks. I think you could really heavy up if there was more rests included.

Janie Great job on your cardio beach walk! That sounds like fun to be performing this Summer. I can’t wait to hear about it.

Have a great day!
 
Janie I'm glad you are back and back with Joe and the pups! I bet they missed you too! Sorry you came looking for us and we weren't here!! Great job on your stationary bike workout!

Julie Great job on Live MM! Wow, better than the DVD, it must be good! Great job on MM too!

Cheryl Great job on RWH LI1. I'm glad that you MIL likes the place, that is definitely a great first step. I need to start taking my mom to visit some when we get back from vacation. Great job on Dragon boating and YR on the weekend. I bet dragon boating is an awesome workout! Great job on disc 28 and ESPECIALLY for remembering all of your workouts! :D

Julie Great job on Live Triset legs. It sounds like a great workout, congratulations for making it through despite being so tired. It sounds like you got your second wind!

Cheryl Great job on Hardstrikes. Were you able to go dragon boating? I hope so!

Janie That is so cool that you are going to be performing a few times this summer. Good for you! Great job on your beach interval workout too!


Julie Great job on yoga, I'm glad to hear that your DOMs were manageable.

I got home from San Francisco really late - the plane didn't land until about 1 am so it was after 1:30 when I got home. Then I stayed up for another hour for some strange reason. I got up at 8 on Saturday but we too tired to do a workout. I just unpacked and did laundry and cleaned up around the house. No workout on Sunday either because we had a 7 am flight to NYC. I think I walked enough in NY though to count for my workout. We walked Central Park and went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Sunday, then hung out at a bar watching the Masters before dinner. Monday was the One World tour and then a lot more walking before going to see David Gilmour. It was a great show, he did all of my favorite Pink Floyd Songs. Yesterday was rainy so we went and toured the aerospace museum, which is actually a real aircraft carrier, so that was pretty cool. It included a tour of a submarine and we also got to see the space shuttle. Then home in time for dinner. This morning I did RWH Circuit Upper body and bonus abs 2. I'm not sure if I will get a workout in tomorrow or not as we leave for our big trip to Vietnam! If I don't get to post, I will check in with you all in May!

Pam
 
Did some free weight lifting and stretches. It was all good. Took about 45 min. for a total body workout.

Pam, It's hard traveling and keeping up with everything. I'm sure you walked plenty in NY, Central Park, Metropolitan Museum of Art and watching the masters at dinner time. The One World Tour and walking before seeeing David Gilmour. Sounds like a great show. Pink Floyd's songs are awesome. And even a tour of a submarine and the space shuttle. Wow! Great job on this mornings RWH Circuit Upper Body and bonus abs 2. Be safe on the the trip to Vietnam.

Julie, Great job on yoga. Ans stretching or one in the same thing... LOL, take care.

Take care everyone,

Janie
 
Janie So cool that you will be performing this summer. You will need to keep us posted on how it goes. Great job on your walk on the beach.

Julie Good job on yoga and only having a dull ache with all your leg work yesterday.

Pam I think you did enough walking in NY to say that you did workout. Sounds like you had a lot of fun and seeing David Gilmour would have been awesome. Great job on RWWH Upper Body Circuit. Enjoy your trip to Vietnam you will have to fill us all in when you get back.

Janie Good work on your free weights and stretching.

So we didn't go dragon boating last night. We couldn't get enough people to take the boat out but in hindsight that was good because it started to thunder and lighting when we would have been out on the water. We went out tonight instead though and it was fun. We saw an eagle and lots of seals. There is a humpback whale that is hanging out over at English Bay too bad he won't swim further down the inlet where we are so we can see him too. Oh and this morning I did disc 28 plyo legs then did the grocery shopping.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Last night was Live ICE Chiseled Upper & Lower Body Blast! It was a nice combo of a cardio and a leg exercise from ICE CLB followed by an upper body exercise from ICE CUB. It kind of reminded me of RWH Circuit Upper Body but a little less intense.

Pam Sounds like NYC was a fun trip. Great job on RWH CUB + abs 2! Have a blast in Vietnam. I can’t wait to hear all about it!

Janie Great job on your weight and stretching workout! Sometimes it is nice to do something on your own and be able to really focus on the movement.

Cheryl I’m glad you got dragon boating in even if it was a day later but at least you were safe and got to see some cool things. Great job on disc 28!

Have a great day!
 
Today was cardio so I rode my stationary bike for 20 min.

Cheryl, Good thing you didn't do Dragon boating. The eagle and seals must have been interesting to see. Can you interact with the seals at all? We have them on our docks in Westport, but they are really big. I don't think we want to get too close...LOL! Oh My! How cool! Great job on disc 28 plyo legs and shopping.

Julie, Great job on Live ICE Chiseled Upper & Lower Body Blast.

Stay healthy everyone,

Janie
 
Julie Good job on Live ICE Chiseled Upper and Lower Body Blast.

Janie Great work on your stationary bike ride. No we can't interact with the seals, they come close but not close enough to touch or anything like that.

Today I did 4DS Higher Intensity Step just the step portion. Then I got most of the housework done, I will finish up the rest tomorrow.

Have a great day everyone.

Cheryl
 
Today was 30/30. I was suppose to do a weight lifting, but it was calling to me. Also performed at the rest home. They so appreciate the entertainment. It was a joy.

Cheryl, Great job on 4DS Higher Intensity Step, step portion and housework.

Cheryl, And for this mornings AOLIH and finished the housework. Good for you!

Take care,

Janie

Janie Great job on 30/30 and MM also for performing at the rest home.

So Saturday I did disc 30 Shoulders, Biceps and Triceps and then went for a long walk. I didn't get a chance to do anything today because we left early to go to the flea market and then stopped in and visited with my parents. I bought some plants at the flea market so I will be doing some gardening tomorrow.
