T-12 Sisters:
I have been catching up on my sleep and having a blast with the 4-Day Split workouts. My computer time has been limited, so I am still check-in challenged. LOL! I am hoping to be more consistent in November. These were my workouts last week:
10-22-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Higher Intensity Step (chest and back weights first premix)
10-23-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Kickbox (legs and core weights first premix)
10-24-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Lower Intensity Step (shoulders weights first premix + calves and core)
10-25-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Boot Camp (biceps and triceps weights first premix)
10-26-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Higher Intensity Step/Lower Intensity Step (double cardio premix)
10-27-07 a.m. 4-Day Split Kickbox/Boot Camp (cardio power premix)
LIS has my all-time favorite warm-up of any workout I have ever experienced (live or on video by Cathe or anyone else). It is dancy and so much fun. I fell in love with the hip hop move during Cathe’s Friday morning step class and the Road Trip. I love the step sweep in the first combination too. HIS is a blast too! I wanted something as much fun as Cathe’s Friday morning step class on DVD, and she granted my wish with these new workouts. The choreography is creative, dancy, fresh, and fun with some of my favorite moves like mambos, cha chas, triple steps, figure 8s, power jigs, ponies, pivots, spins, and turns. I enjoyed the double cardio premix for my Friday morning cardio party. Fun, fun, fun! This premix is definitely in the same league with Rhythmic Step and Step Works and includes the fun LIS warm-up!
Boot Camp is more playful and fun than I expected it to be, and I am delighted with Kickbox. It too brings back warm memories of the Road Trip and has elements of Cardio Kicks and Kick Max. This is without a doubt my favorite kickboxing workout. I would love to have Rhythmic Step 2 as well as a long kickboxing workout similar in style and intensity to this one. I love dancy and complex step choreography, but I prefer simpler kickboxing combos so I can free my mind and focus on executing the moves with good form. This is the first kickboxing workout that makes me happy! I love Cathe’s other kickboxing workouts, but there is something special about this one.
Did I mention that I am delighted with these new workouts?! The production quality is spectacular. I feel like I am up close and personal with Cathe and the crew. These workouts are a joy and delight to watch and experience. I can tell that Cathe poured her heart and soul into these new workouts and invested a lot of creative energy in creating them.
Since there are 3 days left in this month, I am planning to experiment with the premixes and wrap up this month with a 3-day split and start fresh on the first of November with Cathe’s rotation or the series as designed. The premixes for a 3-day split are short enough to give me time for cardio too.
My weekend eating was not perfect, but I did not indulge in any junk this weekend. That is progress with plenty of room for improvement!
Have fun with your workouts this week!
Kathy G, welcome to the check-in! It is good to have another T-1 girl crashing the check-in with me! :7
Blessings,
