Strength in Numbers

Julie Great job on disc 17 legs! I bet you are really sore today if you were already feeling it yesterday! Maybe you should've listened to your dogs and stayed home yesterday :p A root canal doesn't sound like any fun at all. So far I've been lucky enough to have never had one and am happy to keep that record as long as possible. Good for you planning your next STS rotation already. It sounds like you have planned it really well too, having recovery weeks over both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Very smart!
I realized when I was doing my workout yesterday that I hadn't done any abs yet so I threw them in and will do some again tomorrow. t

Eunice I was so frustrated when I couldn't find that DVD. I looked through them all 3 times and never found I bet you're right though, oif i go look tonight it will probably be right there staring at me and taunting me! Oh well, I enjoyed step blast.
Glad to hear that Stacy is starting to feel better, but too bad about DHs shoulder. Poor guy, it's probably driving him crazy. I know they can be cranky when they can't do the things they like to do too!
Poor Sam :( I hope they figure out what is going on with him soon. I'm sure he is not happy being stuck at the vet. And you're right, you are probably in for a big vet bill...UGH. I know what you mean about bunco. It was kind've fun at first, but then most of the women that I really like in the neighborhood dropped out so it wasn't much fun anymore. Our food was always something really high fat too :confused:
Great job on Slow & Heavy legs and shoulders.

Janie Great job on TBS abs and stretches! Poor Rolly, I hope you gt that long walk in today!
Oy yes, you are definitely missing out on the frozen custard. It is heavenly. We don't go that often though, it's a special treat. I did try ABC2 this morning. You were right about the intensity, it was very very light intensity. At first I thought there was no way I was going to be able to do the whole thing, but it was kind've fun. I don't think it's one I'll be using very often though, so I'm glad I only paid $7 for it! I did kind've get my heart rate up near the end, but it is one for a super light day for sure. Very interesting choreography though, he's very creative!

Cheryl Oh man, so sorry about your Canucks :(:mad: What the heck was up with the riots and the looting after the game? I just don't understand people getting so out of control like that over sports. It's nuts.

So as I said I tried Patrick Goudeau's Advanced Ball Choreography 2 this morning. It certainly was interesting but not a big calorie burner at all. You are sitting and bouncing and side stepping and standing and sitting, ........ hard to get your hear rate up when most of it is spent sitting on the ball though. I will have to choose something tougher tomorrow....maybe Mindy will show up.....:confused: Have a great Thursday/Friday everyone! This week sure is dragging!

Pam
 
This morning I did the Cardio Only Premix from Boot Camp (can you say Terminator Climbers! :eek:) and the Cardio Quick Fix plus No Equipment Ab Circuits. My quads are very much living in DOMSville right now. I have not had front quad DOMS in ages. Hopefully I will have a few minutes to foam roll them out tonight.

Eunice Great job on getting your Cathe fix with SH Legs & Shoulders! That’s good that your DH is actually looking forward to getting his shoulder fixed and that Stacy is starting to feel better. Let’s hope the vet finds out something easy and cheap to fix Sam up. Poor guy! :( Your STS rotation of Meso 1 once and Meso 2 & 3 twice each sounds like fun. I can’t wait to see what kind of results you get.

Janie Great job on your Joey TBS workout and abs and stretching with Cathe! Don’t feel too bad about not walking with Rolly. You are certainly much better at walking your dog than me. We hardly ever take the dogs for a walk. :confused: I’m always amazed that little Rolly can keep walking for 30 minutes or more. I had a root canal about 5 or 6 years ago and the only reason it was bad was because I had let it go so long I needed a double root canal that lasted 4 hours one day and 2 hours another day. This one I caught early so I should only need the standard 2 hour appointment.

Pam Well great job on sticking out ABC2 even though it was lower intensity. I know we are supposed to do lower intensity stuff every once in awhile but it is hard for me to feel like I really did anything when I did get a major sweat and calorie burn going. Hope you find Mindy to help you end the week. :p I totally agree that this week is dragging by.

Cheryl Well for your sake I am glad the playoffs are over and you won’t be as stressed about them now. I am sorry that the Canucks lost. Hopefully they can appreciate how far they got and learn what they need to do to win next year. :(

Have a good Thursday!
 
I am so upset, angry and embarrassed right now to be a Vancouverite. This is not what our city is about rioting in the streets. It was so upsetting walking to work today, going past so many broken windows and garbage cans that had been set on fire. This was done by a few thugs, I wouldn't even consider them human beings. This would have happened even if the Canucks had won, they were using this as a venue to create mayham. Our reputation is now shot and tourists are now trying to get out of the city due to this. We are the top story around the world and it is not good. Some of them have turned themselves in but more still need to be caught. The Bruins deserved to win they played much better than we did. But even we we had of won this still would have happened.

Julie Oh no a root canal, that is not fun. I haven't had one but my mom has had a few of them. Oak Brook is where my brother is. I knew it started with Oak :confused:. I will start STS with you on September 19th. Cathe always does have a fat burning rotation at the start of the year doesn't she. It was a bummer that they lost but the better team won. There is always next year.

Eunice Sorry you had such a bad day. Hopefully things will get better.
You can do STS with Julie and myself. We will be starting on September 19th. As you can see from my post above that we did not win the cup, the rioting was more damaging than losing.

Janie Good job on TBS, at least it gets Joey excerising. Well it looks like the weather is getting better so you should be able to get a long walk in with Rolly.

Pam It is so upsetting that a few people did the rioting and looting. There was about 100,000 people in that area and a few hundred did all that damage. It was planned out as they brought stuff with them to start the cars on fire and smash the windows. This would have happened no matter how the game went. They did not get out of control over sports, these were not Canuck fans they were thugs who wanted to use this to create mayham and get on TV.

Well besides Zumba on Monday I haven't worked out at all. I am going to try a Bootcamp workout that my neighbour who is a personal trainer is doing on Saturday. I am hoping to get back to normal next week. Today was a day where we recognized our staff for years of service and excellent work done. I was the MC, and you all know how good I am at public speaking......:eek:. Well I was told that I did well my voice didn't shake but my knees sure did.

Have a great Friday everyone and I will try to recover from the humiliation of last night.

Cheryl
 
Pam Did you find your dvd?;) Yeah I know they get cranky but at this point he is very surprise of how much damage its in his shoulder, he thinks that this is from when he was at high school playing football, last year he started to do heavy weight lifting and there is when it got worse the doctor at California told him just to stop working out of course that is never going to happen:rolleyes: so he can't wait now to get it done and fix it, he is looking for new ways to stay fit till all this is over, I know he is crazy.. me too so he can finally get back to normal;) Hopefully this afternoon we can get Sam back, Stacy is driving me crazy "call the vet, when is Sam coming, I miss Sam, when are we going to get Sam" and on and on...good for you for trying something new, that maybe it wasn't as good as you wanted.So weird my week its being so fast today there was no school for the little girls so I got to sleep in just a little bit more, no rushing in the morning so nice...


Cheryl Oh man, so sorry about your Canucks :(:mad: Sorry that you are upset it sounds like a very ugly situation, well at least you are going to be able to sleep.. I want to start with STS before September if it doesn't work then maybe I will join you girls it could be fun. I'm sure you will be back next week with a revenge have fun,


Julie wow a good one but for some reason I won't pick that one only if it is in the rotation. Good for you!!! I can wait to get over with this week and get back to normal of course there is never a normal week, yesterday Rachel got back home from school with bad, red eye, it doesn't look like a pink eye hopefully is just temporary! I can't wait to do my STS rotation:D

Janie good job doing your workout and walking your dog, they love walking I can't wait to get my Sam so we can go out for a walk, I don't do it every day but I try to do it as much as I can.

Today I did Low Max oh boy my legs are sore from yesterday workout so the low max its going to help me or get better or get a little bit more sore, I have to go right now I have to go get Sam, bye have a good day!!!

Ok so I'm back with Sam it was $398 he got Xray, IB(I don't know how to write it its the fluids thingy and antibiotic, and spetial food they think it was a bug and since yesterday he did not trow up anymore neither today he was good to come back home besides its Friday I don't think the keep dogs over the weekend, so we have to star slow getting him back to his normal food, for now he has to starve:( with the little food we have to gave him.. poor boy! But happy to be back home..
 
Julie Great job on Cardio Premix from Boot Camp, Cardio Quick Fix and No Equipment Ab Circuits. I hope you had time for the foam roller for your poor aching quads! :D
I'm with you, if I'm going to invest the time in a workout I don't feel like my time was well spent unless I'm sweating like crazy when I'm done. That's why it was hard for me to get into weight training for the longest time. When I first started doing it I only did it after doing an hour of cardio. Now I have come to appreciate the strength only workouts more than I used to.

Cheryl You should not be ashamed to be a Vacouverite. It is a shame that a few bad people can turn what should be an exciting event into something like that. I don't understand the motivations of people like that. I guess they use these big events because they know there will be a lot of cameras there so they will get a lot of press. It is really disgusting. I hope that they all get caught and punished.
Your bootcamp workout this weekend sounds like it will be a lot of fun. Enjoy!
Great job on MCing your event at work too. I know how stressful that can be and I'm sure no one else knew those knees were shaking :D
There is no reason for you to feel humiliated, just angry at those people for doing that to your beautiful city.

Eunice Yes! I did find my DVD this morning. It took me 4 times looking through the whole shelf though. You'll never believe it but someone changed the color of the DVD box ;) I was convinced that I knew exactly what the box looked like and it was white. Well, turns out the reason I couldn't find it is because it is purple! That's why I just kept skipping right over it. I had almost given up and was going to do Imax2 instead, but I decided to take one last look and there it was!
It sounds like it will be good for DH to get his shoulder fixed, but he will probably go crazy while it's healing. Don't let him do too much too soon after the surgery (if possible!) I'm glad to hear that Sam is home, I hope that he has a good weekend and is able to eat normally again soon. $400 vet bill - OUCH :confused: I'm glad to hear that your week ended better than it started!
Oh I just love sleep in days! I'm looking forward to one tomorrow, as long as my cats let me. Sometimes they are a little impatient with my sleep in days because they want their treats :rolleyes:
Good job on low max. That is a tough one to do when your legs are sore too :) hopefully it helped them.

So as I said, I did finally find that Mindy DVD and did it this morning. It seemed much easier than I remember it being, I attribute that to the Hiits, Intensity and Imaxs. It is still a good one and a good choice for active recovery week. Now I just have to decide on tomorrow's workout before getting on to meso 2 :D Any suggestions for me tomorrow? Maybe an Imax or BM2......Hmmmmm. Have a great Friday/Saturday everyone. TGIF

Pam
 
This morning I woke up and my quads were feeling much better. They are still a little sore but they felt good enough to do Athletic Step. Then I got my equipment set up for tonight’s disc 18: Back and Biceps!

Cheryl I can’t believe they rioted either.:mad: I can never understand rioting when a team wins or loses. Rioting after winning championships seems to happen a lot in Chicago (both in basketball and hockey) but it just doesn’t seem to make sense. I don’t think you need to be embarrassed over something ingrates did. A Bootcamp workout sounds like fun! Can’t wait to see how you liked it. Great job on getting through your MCing. I completely understand about the shaking knees. Hopefully you were behind a podium or wearing a long skirt so people couldn’t see them! ;) I’m excited that you will be doing the next round of STS with me. It certainly helps that Pam is doing a round now too so we can commiserate together!

Eunice Great job on Low Max! I love that one and it certainly is a great leg workout for being mainly cardio. Hopefully Rachel doesn’t have pink eye. I only had that once as a child but my sister used to get it all the time. Poor Sam! :( But at least he is home now and can start mending his poor troubled tummy. I can never believe how much vet bills are! :eek: Now that Oscar is getting older and having more problems, I have started to call him "my expensive little poopy"! I love sleep in days but I usually only get to sleep in an hour or so. Not always because the dogs wake me up but sometimes just because I can’t sleep.

Pam Great job on your workout with Mindy (and actually being able to find it too! :p). Hmmm! What to do tomorrow before starting Meso 2? Maybe you should go old school and do one of the classics like Step Jam or maybe Step Works. Or you can do Imax 2 but I expect to see a smile on your face during the Jeannie Hops!!! :D I completely forgot about foam rolling last night but even if I had remember I am not sure when I would have done it. I remembered this morning when I got out of bed and my legs didn’t tremble as much as the day before!

Happy (finally) Friday!! :eek:
 
Joey and I did TBS with Cathe's abs and stretches. Rolly and I went for an hour and a half walk yesterday. Poor thing, he got really thirsty. Will bring water next time. Will do it again today.

Cheryl, Lots of things happening in Canada! I know who you are and I think what has happened are the freaky thugs as you call them, got out of hand. I think every country goes through this one time or another. I will go to Canada when I can, in a heartbeat. I'll stay with you and be safe. :D I'm sorry this has happened and that you are embarrassed. I love Canada and it's beauty and all the wonderful people there. (except those thugs!) Great job with Zumba on Monday. Very proud of you for being MC and recognized your staff for years of excellent service and work well done. My knees would shake too.:D

Eunice
, Great job on LM. I'. so glad they found out what was wrong with Sam. Sounds like he will be hungry for a little while, but so glad he improving and getting better.

Pam, Great job on Mindy this morning. I love her! It is not that easy of a workout, so you are improving very much. Most likely (I agree) from the Hitts, Intensity and imaxs. So proud of you! Do a BM2, hey, why not? Enjoy!

Julie, Great job on AS. Not an easy one especially when your quads are sore. How are your roots. Sore? When is your root canal again? I'm sure thinking of you and hope you are not in too much pain.

Take care,

Janie
 
Well some of the people who rioted turn themselves in and some parents turned their own children into the police. That was good to see but there are still lots out there. With all the cameras that are everywhere now they will get caught eventually. There were so many people sending their videos and pictures to the police department that their server crashed. People around here are so angry about this. There were a lot of windows smashed and stores looted. With plywood still over a lot of the windows people have started writing positive messages all over them. There was also a police car that went to a call downtown last night and when he came back to his car he found it covered with post it notes from people thanking them for the work that they did during the riot. I actually passed it this morning going to my building and there wasn't a place left that didn't have a post it stuck to it. It was kinda neat to see.

Eunice It wasn't so bad about the Canucks the Bruins played a lot better than we did. Life goes on now and now our football team is gearing up so we will start watching them. Glad to hear that Sam is back home with you. Hopefully it was just a bug and he will be back to normal soon.

Pam It really only started with a few people and then mob mentality took over. One of the kids was on our National Water Polo team and he has been suspended. What they hope for is a lot of press and they got it but it also allows the police to charge them now. I will let you know how the bootcamp workout goes tomorrow morning.

Julie I don't understand the rioting either. Another thing they were talking about on the news is that the insurance companies are going to go after them since they have the video and know who they are. Hopefully they can make them pay for the rest of their pitiful lives. I didn't have a long skirt on but I was behind a podium. I am looking forward to doing STS again.

Janie The weather is getting nicer to go out for walks now. I am sure Rolly enjoyed it. Yeah they are thugs. I guess the problem is with the social media things can go around the world in seconds. With all of the problems in the Middle East it makes us look bad when they riot after a hockey game for no reason.

Well no workout today :(. It has been an exhausting week. I will get into it tomorrow.

Cheryl
 
:DPam That's to funny that you were looking for white dvd and it was purple!!:p Good job on doing it and getting better and better every time, that's awesome isn't? I will let you know guys everything about the surgery and about Sam, yesterday he did good and this morning too but by dinner time he did it again but this time it looked like a sausage coming out of his mouth, poor boy I did gave him a little more hes belly was going to be empty till tomorrow.:( I hope you get to sleep in today and enjoy a little bit that warm bed, Let see for tomorrow or today you should do Maximum Intensity cardio:D:p



Julie I'm glad your legs are finally getting better.. good job on AS love that one! Hope you had fun doing back and biceps how was it? did you stick to your weights or you had to lower and maybe go heavier?;) I know with this dogs, DH asked what are we doing this weekend, Nothing Sam took all the money!:eek: I know my sleep ins are maybe 30 more minutes no more!:confused:

Janie Good for you for doing TBS and abs with your Joey, that must be so much fun!! Poor Rolly but good for keeping that long walk! Hopefully Sam stay well, we'll see he did it again and we are watching him like a baby to not to put anything in his mouth I don't think he really like that:) Oh well!!!


Cheryl I hope all this bad people get what they deserve, good ones had to pay for bad ones and making the city look really bad! I'm glad parents are taking their kids in they need to pay for what they did! Maybe next time the Canuckas will do better!:) Hope you feel better now and get back to normal.


Well, No workout for me either, the day went by to fast and I didn't do anything really.... I found this pancake recipe soooo good a few weeks ago the girls and DH loved so much that now we have Saturday pancake they are so good and easy, I did gave Stacy a good shower she really needed one since she got sick so I spent my morning cooking and showering we went to the library, then I just kind of relax doing little here and little there laundry cleaning, cooking dinner so I will do my workout tomorrow!! Have a good weekend and I'll be back on Monday!!!!!!!;):):D
 
Julie Glad to hear that your quads recovered quickly and you were able to do AS. that is a good one but it does give those legs a workout!
I did end up doing Imax2 this morning although I can't really say I smiled while doing the Jeannie hops! I did smile after they we re over, does that count?!

Janie great job on TBS with Cathe's abs and stretches. And hour and a half walk! Wow! I bet you were thirsty too :) I love Mindy too, although sometimes she says crazy things. At least she doesn't talk about her nipples in this one ;)

Cheryl that is impressive that some of the people were turning their own kids in. I'm glad to hear that at least some of the people are getting caught, maybe it will make some people think twice in the future, How cool though about all of the nice things that people are dong as a result. It is nice to see all of the good coming out in the wake of the ugliness. That is so cool about the police car!

Eunice Aww poor little Sam. Hope whatever is going on with him is over soon. I tried to sleep in this morning but I had a cat standing on me and meowing in my face at 5:15 am. I kept pushing him away and he would give up for awhile but then kept coming back. I gave up and got up at. 7:30. My cats throw up those sausages all the time, but for them they are hairballs. Sorry you didn't get a workout in yesterday, hope you got one in today!

So as I said I ended up doing Imax2 this morning, including all 128 of the Jeannie hops (not that I'm counting or anything!) last night we skiied and we all had a great night. Plus it was beautiful out and the water was smooth as glass. No skiing today as DH is playing in a golf tournament, so I'm going to my friends to hang out with her at her pool :). I he everyone has a great Saturday/Sunday!

Pam
 
Been rainy here so no outside activity with Rolly today. I did the treadmill and walked and jogged intervals for 45 min. Sweaty, whew!

Cheryl, I'm so sorry you have to see and go through the aftermath of a riot. :( I bet it's overwhelming. (((((hugs to you))))). It's rainy here today. Ug, wanted to take Rolly out for another long walk, (with water). Oh well.

Eunice, It's good to take a day off from intensive exercise anyway. Enjoy the day.

Pam, Our Mindy talks about her nipples? Which DVD is that one? I want to see it! LOL:eek: I guess watching her with all her speedup energy I must not listen very carefully what she says. Again, if she were to be a doggie, it would be a chihuahua. Fast energy! LOL:eek: I love her to pieces. Great job on Imax2 this morning and the 128 Jeannie hops. I can see you in my eyes mind having fun skiing on the smooth as glass water. What a wonderful way to put it.

Take care everyone,

Janie
 
Eunice It is nice that the parents are turning their kids in. I really hope they just don't get a slap on the wrist for it. Sorry that you missed your workout too. This weekend went by so fast that I am not sure that I had one :).

Pam There are a lot of nice things that people are doing to try to counter act the violence. The police car was cool. 128 Jeannie Hops wow those are my favorite but I had never counted them before. I guess you did since you don't like them :D. Enjoy your day at the pool.

Janie What happened to all this nice weather we were suppose to have around here. Today was suppose to be nice but it was cloudy and rainy all day :confused:.

Yesterday I did my Bootcamp workout. Wow it was harder than I thought it may be. I am soooo sore right now. It was a lot of fun but it sure did rain. There was about 12 of us and I have signed up for the next 6 weeks. I was glad that today was my yoga day. I would have rode my bike there but it was raining.........again. I did win a 1 month pass to a yoga studio today that isn't too far away from us. I am thinking that I may go and try it out tomorrow night.

Well I guess it is back to it tomorrow. The weekend went by so fast.

Cheryl
 
I completely lost track of time over the weekend and forgot to post. I did get disc 18 in Friday night and had enough energy on Saturday to double up again and do Cardio Fusion Mixed Cardio premix and MMA Boxing. Then we had to drop my car off to get new brakes and other maintenance and Maggie had a vet appointment for her annual check up. Sunday we had a nice breakfast out with my parents for Father’s Day! This morning I did HiiT 40/20 and will do disc 19 (CST) tonight. Now I’ve got some catching up to do with you gals!

Janie Great job on TBS, abs, and stretching with Joey and your amazing hour and a half walk with Rolly! That is quite a bit of walking for such a little guy! My tooth is ok but mainly because I am not chewing on that side of my mouth. As long as nothing cold hits it and I don’t bite down on it, it is fine. I will be happy to get the root canal done with on July 1st so I don’t have to worry about what side I chew on anymore. Great job on your 45 minute walk/jog intervals

Cheryl Well I am glad to see your community coming together after all the horrible rioting. I think it is great that some parents turned their own children in. That may seem harsh but I feel a big reason why there are so many problems today is parents not making their children take responsibilities for their own actions. I hope everything continues to get better for all of you guys out there. Great job on Bootcamp. That’s awesome that you won that yoga pass, especially since it is to a place that is close to you rather than one way out of the way!

Eunice Well even though you didn’t get a workout in on Saturday it looks like you still had a very productive day. I did enjoy back and biceps and only went down 1 pound on one of the concentration curls. I am with you on the dogs taking all the money. Our vet visit on Saturday was over $300 just for a check up and some meds for Maggie’s hip dysplasia!!!

Pam Great job on Imax 2 and all 128 Jeannie hops!!! Smiling afterwards definitely counts! We will probably cross posts today but I have to get my check in done early since I’ve got a full day here at work.

Happy Monday!
 
Good morning ladies, looks like everyone had a busy weekend!

Janie Sorry to hear you weren't able to bet outside with Rolly yesterday, hopefully you will get out today. Great job on the treadmill intervals though, those are definitely a workout!
I'm not sure which workout it is that Mindy talks about her nipples, maybe Windy City Step. She makes some comment about checking to make sure your nipples aren't crooked because it's a bad day when that happens :p You are right about her being like a chihuahua though! So much energy, sometimes I would like her to give some to me. ;)

Cheryl I agree, I can't figure out how the weekend went by so fast. Man! I hate that! At least I get a short week this week, I'm taking Friday off because I'm heading up to Pennsylvania for a bridal shower. Plus I'm leaving early tomorrow for my hair appointment.
Yes Jeannie hops - 8 sets, 16 per set :) I'm not sure why I hate them so much, but I sure do!
Yor bootcamp workout sounds like a doozy! It sounds like fun, good for you for signing up for 6 weeks too! Congratulations on winning the yoga pass, that is cool!

Eunie and Julie Hope you had a great weekend. How is Sam doing Eunice??

This morning for me was the start of meso 2, but I was surprised to see it was cardio on the schedule for this morning and weights Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. I'll miss Saturday since I'll be in Pennsylvania so will have to figure how to work it in. That is going to be tough though, because then we leave the next weekend for a week :confused: Hmmmmm..maybe I'll start meso 2 over again when we get back from that. Anyway, this morning was 30/30 and med ball abs, so a pretty light day. That was kind've nice for a Monday. Yesterday for Father's day the kids cooked pancakes for breakfast and then we all went to the lake. It was sooo windy though that the skiing was tough. We all did one set but weren't interested in any more than that with the rough water. We came home and put ribs on the grill and had ribs, potato salad, baked beans and corn on the cob. Watermelon too, a real classic summer meal. I hope everyone has a great Monday!

Pam
 
Did TBS, abs and stretch with Joey.

Cheryl, Rain Rain go away! It's enough already! Jeesh! LOL:eek: Great job on yesterday's BC. DOM's is good. Very proud of you. Congratulations on winning 1 month pass to yoga studio! I bet you are going to like it.

Julie, Great job on disc 18 Friday and Sat. Cardio Fusion Mixed Cardio pre and MMA Boxing. Whew! Sounds like a lovely Father's Day. Good for you. Great job on Sun. Hiit 40/20

Pam, Still threatening to rain, so I did some stair climbing for about 45 min. Great job on part of Meso 2. Yes, start Meso when you get back and don't worry about it.:) Good job on 30/30 along with the med ball abs. Sounds like the whole family had a wonderful Father's Day even with the wind. BBQ sounds so yummy back at home.

Take care,

Janie
 
Pam Hi I was very lazy yesterday to check my email, the weather its making me a little sick nothing big just headaches and sore throat, Brandy didn't go to school she was sick too!:confused: Sam its a lot better now, we don't let him out side along because then is when he gets in trouble eating trash, so funny every time he wants to go out side he look at me like saying... OK leave along you can go inside very funny! I hope you had a great weekend I wonder which one its worse the cats meowing in your face or my Stacy opening the curtains not always some times! Good job doing Imax2 even when you don't like the Jeannie hops!

Janie I hope your weather its getting better, dogs don't like to stay inside when they got used to their routine of going for a walk, does Rolly crys when you can take him outside? Sam does:confused:

Cheryl I know the days are going to fast! some times I don't do everything I want the days are so short! I'm glad that you had fun at the boot camp its going to be a blast for the next 6 weeks! enjoy!!!

JulieGood job doing your workouts!!Nice that you were able to keep your weight, one pound its nothing and more the concentration curls, deff one of my weak exercise but I'm getting a lot better, I hope!! awesome for double them up Cardio Fusion NOT ans easy one and MMA: Boxing not to bad but still a lot of jumping good for you! And today 40/20 and disco 19 tonight wow!!! You are good you need to post pictures you are working pretty hard you need to show your self, at least I haven't see you!! I completely forgot that last Sunday was father's day not like we had some thing going on but still! Oh well:eek: ... See? dogs are pretty expensive to take care off!

Pam Nice weekend you had, I forgot that it was father's day so we didn't do anything, sounds like you are having a busy week bridle shower sounds like fun, for sure a busy week! I didn't know how many Jeannie hops were there, you are funny! maybe next time you should do the one leg squat deeper while jumping then maybe you will forget how much you hate them!hahaha!! Good job doing 30/30 and abs short one but very intense;) OK now I'm feeling terrible for not doing anything for DH, I did order the protein brownies from the bakery in New York,(I haven't get them yet) we did buy them once they are really good a little price hey at least I had the intention huh?!!

Well my weekend went fast, kind of boring Sunday I did Intensity, Oh boy Monday I had, (I still have) very sore quads and butt, I don't remember getting that sore before but again its being a while since I dine it so yeah it got me and got me good!!! Monday I finish Triceps/Biceps from slow & Heavy I also did all step from the Xprees series a short 30min workout but new steps and a fun one I like it! Today I clean the house I did vacuum, took Sam for a little walk and I did Body Max2 only cardio blast 62min and after that I went to eat lunch with one of my friends here in the neighborhood she is from Philippines and cook soooo good!!!! So I made sure I had a workout before going to her house..... Its being rainy today and very cold!
Well I hope you all are doing good and I'll talk to you guys latter!!!;):D

Janie Great job on TBS, abs and stretch with Joey.

Sorry to hear you are getting so much rain, maybe you could send some of it our way? We just keep hearing about how badly we need it, only .75 inches total in the last month. There are wild fires burning about 200 miles away and it is so smoky and smelly from it outside here today no one wants to be outside :rolleyes: Great job on your stair climbing too!

Eunice Ick, i hate weather that makes you sick. Sorry to hear that Brandy is sick now too. You guys need to get healthy over there!
That's funny that Stacy comes in and opens the curtains to wake you up :p
I'm glad to hear that Sam is doing better. Did you say he is a lab? my friend had a lab who would eat EVERYTHING. She ate an entire bag of charcoal one time that was in their garage. Boy did that make her sick!
Oh you are so funny - make me hate something more than the jeannie hops so that they don't seem so bad....hmmmmm...there is an idea!
Well you can tell DH that you had the protein brownies ordered for him but they just didn't make it there in time and celebrate father's day with him when they come.....;):rolleyes::D
Great job on Intensity, such a good one. And hooray for the sore quads and butt too :) Great job Triceps/Biceps from slow & Heavy and all step. I really like that one a lot. I just wish it was longer, but it is a good add on workout. Oh boy and great job on body Max2 cardio blast and your walk with Sam. Wow! What did your friend make for lunch?

This morning for me was disc 13 Chest shoulders and triceps. Yea, I'm so happy to be doing meso 2 now. I really like the tri sets! My shoulder is still giving me a little trouble so I had to back off on the weights on some of the shoulder work, but I had a nice burn going when I was done. :D I hope everyone had a great Tuesday and has a great Wednesday!

Janie I love the rain, I don't love afterwords when everything outside gets sooo yucky! Good job doing the stair climbing for 45min for that one you have to keep your eye wide open if you don't want to trip :p I know I did once when I was just getting into working out I wanted to try every machine at the gym I got that on and couldn't keep up with it, the person before me had it to a very fast speed so I fell, good thing there was no one close to watch me fall!! :eek::eek:


Pam Really, you have drown season that's how it was the year before we got here, but last year and this year its raining a lot I guess its a good thing for Victoria..... Tell me about it I can not plan ahead of more then 2 days I don't know what could happen during that lapse of time, Brandy had some stomach ache, nothing really big just running to the restroom to often :p and for my self I guess its just like so,so.. Our first winter in Australia not a very good one we are going to remember this one for along time.... OH gee let me tell you our last adventure last night Rachel was complaining about itching, "I'm itchy here, I'm itchy there, my face, my shoulder, it was bed time so she came over to me and say I can't sleep" I saw over her face she had a little, little rash, bumpy, kind of thing I gave her some Benadryl and of to bed she went, I was getting all comfy on my bed when she come in turn on the light, I saw her face the rash, bumpy thing was all over her cheek, her ear was so red and she kept rocking her self and talking, you know when they get high fever they just talk, well she scare the heck out of me I call DH he was getting ready for shower, we went to the Emergency room.... Of course when we got there and were waiting the benadryl started to working and her face was getting smoother:confused::eek: SO the DR. saw her she say she couldn't tell what it was but she looked a lot better, no fever or anything else so we got back home..... Yes , I know we got to get healthy here is driving me crazy!! Good I idea we can celebrate it latter anyways its not father's day here so were good!! Oh boy I ate so much yesterday lunch that I didn't had dinner I was still full, she made fry rice, adobo, and chicken with lots of veggies it was good.... She say she is not that good baking and I love bake she want me to do something and invite her so she can watch me so Friday morning we are going to bake, maybe a coffee cake that I got from Linda on Facebook, or a poppy seed cake that also I got from Linda that one I've done it before and it was pretty good the coffee cake I haven't but Linda say that that one its better!!! Sorry my posts its very long....
Good job on disc 13 sorry to hear that your shoulder still bothering maybe you should do extra, extra warm up for your shoulder before doing anything that always helps me, doing extra stretching too. Love meso2 as well....
Next week I'm going to start STS 5.5 months rotation I can't wait I hope my shoulder behave too so I can lift heavy and get me some nice biceps and shoulders for this coming summer!!!

I don't have anything on my calendar today so I might do muscle max, or power hour, high reps, I was going to do gym style but I won't have time to finish... or maybe I will.... Saturday I have a facial appointment DH called sand paper my face:p its a 2 hour face spa, microcurrent facelift, color therapy and oxygenation face spa I bought it a while ago... so Saturday we are going to Melbourne pretty early the appo. its a 10.00am and we always get lost:confused: so yep I can't wait for that one....
 
Well I was so sore after Saturday's bootcamp that I took an Aleve pill Sunday night. Wow the soreness went away within 1/2 hour but boy did I ever have some weird dreams :confused:. I also woke up around midnight and I didn't really get back into a deep sleep, it was those weird dreams that kept waking me up. I made it through work but barely and then I was asleep by 8 last night. I didn't do a workout and I didn't get a chance to get to yoga. I think I am back to normal now and hopefully will workout tomorrow morning.

Julie Good job on your double workouts. I wish I had that much energy. I agree with you that a big reason for there being so many problems is that the parents don't care what their kids do. Some people have now lost their jobs since their employer spotted them on TV in the riots. I do not have any sympathy for them at all. The yoga pass was great. The place is about 20 minutes away from us. I am going to try to go on Friday.

Pam Lucky you to have a short week. I will have a short week next week since our Canada Day is on Friday next week. The bootcamp really kicked my butt but good. I saw our neighbour getting ready for another bootcamp that he teaches on Tuesdays and I told him he got me good. Your Father's Day dinner sounded wonderful.

Janie I agree Rain Rain go away. It has really been getting me down. Today it was really nice here, I didn't even need a coat when I went out at lunch :eek:. How was the weather where you are? Could you get Rolly out for a walk?

Eunice The work days don't go by too fast but the weekends sure do. Good job on your workouts. I feel for you with the rain and cold. We have had that almost every day since October. It can really wear you down. I am hoping that we are finally going to get some Spring weather even though today is the first day of summer :rolleyes:.

Well today we could sit outside and eat our dinner. Normally we can start doing that in April or May but not this year. I think it is suppose to be nice for most of the week. We will see.

Have a great Wednesday everyone.

Did a lot of errands today. Grocery shopping, Picked up my Apria (Sleep stuff for tonight). By the time I got home, there was no time for anything else except water the garden by hand.

Eunice, You are so right. Rolly does cry when he gets outside, only because he is so excited. Good job on the DOM's. You are doing the right things when that happens.:D I need a cleanmax day very soon! Great job on Body Max 2 cardio. You deserve a Philippine meal after that workout.

Pam, So so sorry about those horried fires.:( From the news, it sounds very bad. Great job on disc 13 Chest shoulder and triceps.

Eunice
, Enjoy your sand paper face spa. Ooooo enjoy! I too love the rain, it's so refreshing to your whole body. LOL! Your gym story is so funny! I can imagine it.

Have a good one everyone,

Janie
