WORKOUT Wednesday 10/13

Good morning,

Well, I went to bed at 9 last night (instead of 10) and I don't feel nearly tired at all this morning. So, today I did Bootcamp- hadn't done that one in a while and was surprised how much easier it got since I did it about 1 1/2 months ago (I'm not saying it was easy-just easier than it has been in the past). So I guess that means I've gotten stronger- YIPPEE!! Those terminator climbers are killers but I did all but 1 or 2 of them.:)

I got Terminator in the mail yesterday and previewed it last night. I am planning on doing it Saturday when I have more time (aren't the workouts over an hour). Which one should I do first-any suggestions?

Have a great day everyone!
Wendy
 
Good morning Wendy...I did Bootcamp too last week and it had been awhile. The terminator climbers wiped me out...:) yes the Terminator workouts are more than an hour...I don't remember which one is shortest. Imax Extreme is the one that is mostly cardio, the other 2 are just plain fun to me!!

I am doing a short Taebo and an easy 5 mile run. I had a massage last night and I feel wonderful!!:D

Nice also to see that Dutchie posted yesterday. I do miss her posts....hope everyone has a great workout...:)...Carole
 
Missed my chitter chatter, did you? But thanks for missing me.

I haven't worked out yet, but have Legs&Glutes planned after my PT appointment.

I have a bet with my kids I won't eat cookies until 5 December, when Sinterklaas arrives in my country. What? Who? I'll explain when the time is right:)
Anyways, I was offering a cookie to son no. 2 and he said said no, looked at me and said, you shouldn't eat them either, you're too fat. With my mouth open and a cookie half way in the air, I stared at him and he stared back as he said "bet you can't do it, you're a girl! Girls need sugar". I'll tell you, no son of mine tells me I'm fat:) so right there and then we made a bet. Son no. 1 thought it was all very funny until we teased him into accepting the bet :) Not sure who's gonna win though. The glass cookie jar is still full with all those delicious cookies!! And I look at them x-times a day and they are calling out to me....

Have a great day all,

Dutchie:)
 
That is too funny. Just a guess but is "Sinterklaas" Santa Claus?

If you can go w/o cookies until Dec. 5 so can I.

Throw a towel over the jar or pour a little water into it--just a suggestion.:)

This is a reply to Dutchie.
 
Ooooh Dutchie, if my son had said that to me, I am not sure what I would have done.}( Glad to see you back.

I did CTX 10-10-10 minus triceps with abs off of Body Max and the cooldown on Body Max too.:) Weight still up but my downfall this time of year is candy corn!!;( I admit it I am a candy corn-a-holic!! But once it is out of the stores I am fine again.:)

Wendy I don't have that DVD so I can't help you with the Terminator. The name alone is scary though,LOL!!

Hope you all have a great day!!:D
 
Good Morning All!! Did a mish mosh of step stuff this a.m. A little StepFit, AllStep and PowerMax fusion. It felt very good to jump around some. It's 'Launch Week' at the gym and I feel overworked with weights (even the coffee cup felt a little heavy this morning:) )
We celebrated Thanksgiving this weekend and I was pleased with my restraint but did indulge in some lovely Pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing. Calico, what the heck is Candy Corn, is it sugared popcorn, you've stumped me?

Dutchie, don't the kids keep us humble and on our toes.
Glad to hear you enjoyed your massage Carole!

Enjoy your Wednesday!!

DUTCHIE, so nice to see you again! I've got the memo... no cookie.

My favorite is Viper. :)


I did HIIT on the nordictack for 30 min then PS shoulders -- inspired by a few yesterday. PS abs afterwards.

Enjoy the day, Mari
 
No, Laurie, Candy corn is not sugared popcorn, it is nothing but plain sugar candy, with molasses and corn syrup all the bad stuff. It is a candy sold mostly during the Halloween season. It is shaped like a triangle with white on top, orange in the middle and yellow on the bottom, very small made by Brachs. Indian corn is black, yellow and orange.

hope that clarifies some

Here is a website that has a picture and the history of candy corn.LOL!! Nothing like the history of candy.:9
 
Hi Ladies,

I did PLB this morning and will be spinning this evening. I also love candy corn and had some last night, my daughter left the bag sitting on the counter. They are very hard to resist.

you've got it Haydee, historically Sinterklaas came to the US with the Dutch and German settlers and at some point celebrations moved to 25 December and his name changed to Santa Claus.

Overhere, we celebrate both, so our kiddies get presents twice and us poor parents (how ever you want to read that), get even poorer.

BTW, does this mean you'll join me in my bet... I could use the support you know, I'm quite feeble minded when it comes to cookies who keep calling me.:)

Anyone else wanna help me? Please?

Dutchie
 
Hi Annette,

I'm sure you would've felt like me, caught with my grubby little fingers in the cookie jar :)

And you should know I only weigh in at a mere 123 pounds at a short 5.5", but I proudly carry an 8 pound fat belt loosely around my waist. Unfortunately, the belt won't come off when I go to bed:(

Dutchie
 
Good morning, everyone! I've seen that candy corn in the stores, but have never actually tasted it. That's a good thing, I suppose, because I don't need something else to tempt me as I wander the grocery store every Thursday. Resisting the eggnog this year is going to be hard enough. I will compensate by buying eggnog coffee beans from Second Cup. :9

This morning I did PUB followed by All-Step. I wanted to give my legs a bit of a break between assaults. Poor things.

I love PUB. Love, love, love, love it. Maybe if I'm enjoying it so much, I need to increase my weights a bit x(

Have a great day,
Sandra
 
Sweet!! Thanks for clarifying that for me Annette, I always love a history lesson:) I've seen those candies at the bulk food store but haven't tried them, being that it is the season and you were kind enough to respond I will get some next time I see them (for the children of course;-) :7 ). Thanks Again!:)

You're a mere 123 @ 5.5 and your son says you're "fat"? Well I could just imagine what he'd say of me. I'm about 5'3, 5'4 and weigh 150 lbs. I contribute some of this weight towards my formidable triceps and thick quads, but I could stand to lose at least 5-10 lbs.

If I were 123 lbs I would eat a bag of cookies, but I'm not @ 123 and I've made a commitment so 5 Dec. it is.x( x( x( x(

Haydee
 
Heck, I think the last time I weighed 123 pounds was in the 6th grade!;-) Now I'm 5'10 and 152 pounds.

I would love to avoid cookies for a week let alone almost 2 months!

See ya later - gotta go eat some cookies;-)
