Morning Yoga Ladies -
I ended up doing Barry's Bootcamp Legs & Butt with Nadia and 20 minutes of cardio from another DVD. I listened to BC - TimeBomb & Nickelback - The Long Road - it made leg day a lot more fun. I only did one set of Mountain Climbers versus all of them. I went to the doctor for my cervical spine injury yesterday and told her how I flared my pain and she told me to take it easy on those workouts right before I left!! So -- I guess I sort of listened to her today. She tells me I'll probably never be able to do tons of pushups no matter how hard I try ....as people with my type of injury rarely can. I'm bummed cuz my shoulders really look good from doing them!! Total workout was 1 hour 25 minutes and I burned 520 calories. Brooklyn jumped on the rebounder at one point, but thank goodness it wasn't during the double timed flying jacks I was doing!
I also did Tias Little's River Flow Yoga - 55". Not a real strenuous practice but it was not restorative. Tons of hamstring stretches and yet my hamstrings and lower glutes still feel stiff! Running really does my hammie's and lower glutes in! I also forgot to post that yesterday I did Yoga Bliss Hips - Kundalini yoga and a dance aerobic DVD in the afternoon.
Speaking of the dance DVD - it's led by Patricia Moreno. She is so freakin' muscular and looks amazing. Does anyone know anything about her fitness routine -- other than she did the Powerstrike's and kickboxes? Also - which Power Strikes are the intense ones? I bought 3 once and sent it back cuz it did jack s#@#$ to my HR.
Buckcherry's (my fave band - in case you didn't know) coming to a town that's about 25 minutes from here - but they are opening band for Papa Roach! Can you believe it, Papa Roach is more popular than BC!! Blackstone Cherry is also playing. It's on a Friday - so the DH said he'll go since we can leave after BC plays. If they were headlining I would see who wanted to come! Hopefully they'll play in Youngstown soon.
Have a great day. I'll be around for a bit.....have to do some running around and scrounge up some bottles of BPAL to sell on Ebay, as I need some cash since the recent update took out my Paypal account!!
What ever happened to Kel and Tammy? Come back please!!!
Jen - yeah right, ME workout 5 days a week?? Maybe if I was working, but not while I'm not employed. Even at my doctor's appointment yesterday, she explained why exercise helps my pain, especially cardio. I always thought it was because it just got my blood pumping thru all of those muscles, but she told me it was from the endorphins! Here we go again with this endorphin rush I'm addicted to these days!! LOL. I modified some cardio on the rebounder and only used my lower step for moves, as my legs are too fatigued, especially after that leg workout. Glad you got home from work at a decent hour last night. It's about freakin' time!! I would SO not be happy if I had to work late a lot! I don't think I could do it.
Yve - thanks for caring about the sciatica. Yes, I probably should get my butt on the foam roller, as my sciatica seems to come from Pirformis Syndrome and if I roll out my piriformis muscle, the sciatica should get better. However, I'm not sure that will work this time, as the spasm still runs from the base of my neck, down the right side of my hip and into my sciatic distribution. In Kundalini, they say this area is the "life nerve". I guess my nerves are shot over my life right now!! Too worried about everything.
