:) Good Saturday Morning ladies.
This will be my last weekend temping at 6:20 in the morning. Yay! Glad to get the work however ...not complaining. lol.

Workout this morning was a set of chest exercises. 3 sets of regular standing (tubing) chest flies & 2 sets of low chest flies plus some push-ups. Then a tabata workout from Connie Yee on youtube.
Now I'm pooped. lol.

Henriette, really hope you get more recovery time this weekend.
 
Hope everyone has a glorious weekend. Elsie, that looks like a good workout...... gotta love those bootcamp workouts !
Annette, I think that is great that you are teaching senior fitness classes.....Being a "senior" myself, I can relate! Cathe has a senior
class on Cathe Live and I have done that one many times.....It's such a fun, light workout and I hope she will do another one of those
sometime in the future......Well, today is cleaning & laundry day....that's a workout in itself! :)
 
Hi Everyone,

Early to check in for some of us.

Today I did Pilates by Lisa - just a 30 minute workout but it was tough. My body was too sore for anything else.

So Aqua girl your name is Linda! Elsie - what is your first name - only if you wish to share - don't feel compelled. I do not have a middle name. I am just Siobhan.

And yes, Linda - laundry and cleaning is serious work which I try to push onto my DH and DD's all the time :)

Have a good day everyone.
 
Hi gals,

Linda, Elsie name is Elsie she said it is a family name.

I actually did a workout today. Went to the gym since it was 83°F in the house, I did 30 minutes on the elliptical and held a plank for 90 seconds!

Now off to my sister in law 's birthday party .

Have a great weekend!

Hi girls,

Today has been quite busy. It started nice and slow, even made time to lie on the couch and read some magazines. I am still on May issues, so many months of many magazines to catch up with.

I then gave my son a hair cut before we biked to the town where the basketball club is. Just 6km away. There was a fair there today with stalls for different activities and clubs in that town, so the bball club had a stall there and some clinics to get more kids interested. My son got to wear the club colors and show some moves. We then biked on to where he had his training from 14-16.00. During his training I rushed home by bike, did Body Beast Build Chest and Tri's and then biked super fast back to accompany him on the bike ride home. He's still just 9, so a little young for biking that distance alone.

The rest of today I will take it easy. We have an early start tomorrow. We have to meet at 7.10 in the morning to go to a tournament from 9-13.00. I hope that means I will have time and energy for my w/o tomorrow and some housework and relaxation before another work week starts.

Elsie - what temp work have you beend doing?

Linda - do you have a spouse/partner/kids?

Have a lovely Saturday.
 
Henriette, no, I am divorced, but do have a special guy to hang out with on occasion....sorry to say no kids....
But I have a dog, I love him just like a kid....and he's definitely spoiled too. :). Today I was able to do a blender
Workout, ICY/STS Back & Biceps....a lot of rows, pullovers & curls, approx. 30+ min.
Everyone have a nice evening/night.......

ETA: just finished a Tower abs workout using tower, bands, abt 22 min....good little workout.
Wanted to get it in this evening,cause I want to try & do Cathe Live w/o tomm, if I can.

Wow, everyone had such a busy Saturday!! Great job on all of our workouts, cleaning & running/biking kids around. lol!
We did more moving stuff today after work .....my spouse & I have been starting to get on one another's nerves during this move now. I think I will need a day off soon from this. lol. Anyway, no workout for me Sunday/tomorow as I have a lot of work to do outside and inside the house.
Have fun at the birthday party, Annette!! That sounds nice. :)
It's hard not to do LIVE w-o's right aquagirl? lol.

Elsie - what temp work have you beend doing?
Admin & privacy records organization. It is just as boring as it sounds. I definitely have to get my kicks outside of the office!
Elsie - what is your first name - only if you wish to share
Elsie is my first name. My middle name is what my family (& IRL) call me. Yeah, I do not want to write out my whole name here! lol. ;) That's so funny about trying to get DH & DD to do the laundry!! I think laundry is the only chore I do not mind. Can't stand the rest!

See you all Monday & I will probably poke my head in tomorrow to see what you are doing. Oh, that is an early start Henriette. Good luck!
 
Hi Everyone,

thanks for the update elsie. people from my younger years call me shivvy. From my highschool - chevy. at work - shovey! ha ha. no joke. in my personal life, siobhan.

today I did STS Plyo Legs + Pilates by lisa - 10 minutes.

busy weekend for us all with our workouts and lives :)

See you all tomorrow - I hope. I am on dog walking duty so might have to rise earlier than usual to get in a workout.

have a great day friends.
 
Happy Sunday to all....after church I went to my wellness center and walked the indoor track using my weighted
Walk Vest and doing Debbie Rocker's Walk Vest audio walking workout (20 min). After lunch, I did the new
CatheLive workout, Total Body Band & Glide which was a creative and fun workout... Besides my evening walk,
That's probably it for the day.
 
Well, I don't normally work out on a Sunday but one of faithful regulars in my class wanted a circuit with less kicking so I put together a boxing circuit for her. So I was trying the moves in the back at the computer while listening to the music for the workout. So I got about 30 minutes of boxing in.

See you tomorrow.

Oh and a question: how important is being certified by an organization to you in teaching a fitness class?
