Morning Ladies -
This morning I did Michelle Dozois' Best Body Circuit using 12-20 pound DB's. Some exercises are done with the band and I probably should have used a heavier band, but was not sure, as I never did this before. Workout was 65" and I burned 400 calories. I also did Baron Baptiste's Journey Into Power Level 2 45" and Rapid Results Pilates for the Waist 10" (really different -- like it).
I really liked Michelle's circuit. It was fun and had lots of plyo in it. It was challenging but not in a Cathe way. It's a no dread factor circuit. I've always liked her.
DH was still giving me grief this morning during my workout! I wish he'd get over his crap already. I really could use some support from him right now, as starting a new job is not easy.
Jen - I ended up keeping the Simply set of Gin's. I have Simply Circuit, Endurance, Interval and Strong......but I moved them into the basement area. I like Gin too....but a little less than I used to. I've got 2 more racks to go thru. Watching my Yoga Fusion VHS's now...and so far, most of them aren't making the cut. Yes, I agree that learning billing is good.....however, this job NEVER gives you a raise or cost of living and I'm not sure if I can stay at a place like that. Doesn't give you a whole lot to look forward too. The lady that hired me said she hired me cuz she was so impressed with not only my experience but the fact that I went out door to door dropping resunes off. She said that it means I'm agressive and a go getter. I'm not sure about that these days (although when I really want something - I do go for it -- but agressive, moi??). It feels weird to be as old as I am and starting over at what I made when I first got hired at the first hospital I worked at 20 years ago.
Kel - how are you?? what's up?
I have lots to take care of today. I'll be around for a while though.

Well, as you can tell from my above rant, I will be starting cardio on Saturday. I am going to include some circuits...just because I can't go a week without at least touching weights and because they give such a great calorie burn. I am just not sure how many to include. I think it will be 2 to 3 at the most. The rest will be interval training and straight cardio-walking, step, etc. I am also considering buying a pair of Rollerblades. I would have to go out alone, since my DH won't Rollerblade with me. I am scared to do it...there are so many creepy stories about women going missing when they go out alone...and I live in a nice, park-friendly area. Just afraid to take advantage of it. I guess I need to stop living in fear. My health is more important than that.
