Happy Monday X’ers… Up early again thanks to a 7 day early ttom. Gotta love the “surprise” element of the 40's!! Good thing is that I fully understand yesterday’s oreo obsession!

:eek: ****Final Recovery Week******* Day 2**** Core Synergistics*****:eek:

There is such stimulating & thought provoking conversation going on from what I've skimmed over this past weekend! I dont want to miss a single thought so I am going to take it slow w/ personals this morning. I'll post a little at a time so hang in there with me today!

Back in a few!
:7
 
Well- I do believe that 2 hours later I have fully immersed myself in weekend chat. Thank you all for such stimulating topics & thoughts! I apologize if I have missed anyone at all.

Reminder for Phase 3’ers… We talked about sharing (at the very end) some things we learned w/ the X Challenge. (Thanks for suggesting it Tracy!) I for one am taking lots of notes because I need to really apply this stuff starting next week.

:) Laurie, Deb (Fox2star), X… I think that’s the only group I didn’t see. Hugs to all 3 of you as you start yet another fantastic X week!

:) JEANETTE: Happy Phase 3 ^^^^^^^^5! Happy Dancing for you! Cracked me up visualizing you doing Prison Cell Push ups in Prison! I’ll share my Oreo’s if you share your tortilla chips (w/ salsa of course!) You didn’t miss any pull ups in Masters… That’s a new move for X’ers so if ya want them you’ll just need to add them in. Push ups? Now that’s another story... He gets us even in Masters! How cool about your “valley” ride coming up! OF COURSE you’re ready for it!!! How awesome. Hope C&B rocks your world this morning! You are so inspiring with your endless enthusiasm… So glad you found your way to X’ers!!!

:) LEA: Loved the visual of you ^^^5’ing after L&B Friday! I heard Rocky in background I swear… I am so happy that you had a wonderful workout at this stage in the game. Feels GREAT not to just be going thru the motions after such a long time doesn’t it? ARX – DONE GIRL! I was so happy myself getting that one put away on Friday myself! LOL. Do you think in a week we’ll be missing ARX? Snowboarding sounds like great fun & challenging to boot! You look like you are a real outdoorsy person in your pics!

:) DEBRA: Thanks for sharing about your tattoo! It sounds so cool and I love the placement as well. That’s where I’d get it if I got one! DH once said… “Get it on your booty” I’m like “Yeah right so when I gain weight I can scare myself getting out of the shower w/ a 200# animal on my a**” ! Placement is EVERYTHING w/ tattoos I think… thinking long term of course! Ha. Hope Fridays fatigue was just about getting back into routine and nothing more. Eating, stress, lack of movement, hormones; all factors so much into how we feel day to day doesn’t it? Enjoyed your thoughts to Tracy on weights and plateau. I think you (like so many others) are right. Sometimes we forget that the human body has to “rest” and recovery. Your CardioX choice Friday night was a great idea! It’s good that Tony gave us a mish mosh to do when we really need something that moves fast and gets the job done. Since that’s not in Classic rotation I feel like adding that into my regular post workout. Re: weekend w/o’s… S&A, ARX & Imax.. Well that turned into quite a great weekend didn’t it? Hope you are raring’ to go today!!!

:) SANDRA: Ooooh… You sounded very tired and frustrated in your Friday afternoon post. I am so sorry about all that. Perhaps you are having your lovely TTOM arrive early this month as well! I so enjoyed hearing your review & thoughts about Tony & workouts in original series. That’s so cool to see what a professional he is! I’m sure that all the negatives about his ego that tend to circulate is part of what makes him so effective in X. Lets face it… Those that have no ego attached to physical appearance probably aren’t reaching for this program anyway! You sure can be “healthy” without the intensity and challenge of the X …. Oh my on DH’s Form…. I had to bite my tongue just reading that! I went to community gym 1 time with mine about 5 years ago…..NEVER AGAIN. I swear he was going to knock his back right out as he flung those HEAVY weights around. It doesn’t appear that he’s EVER had a “form” lesson. In his mind it’s all about how heavy the weight is. GOOD LUCK! Happy Chest & Back day! Just remember the countdown! Thanks for input on Yoga Twist move… I only feel it in my hip flexors & lower back… guess I’m not “engaging” as much as I think. Better work on Sandra Squeezes for that as well! On rotation duration…. REALLY gave me some things to re-think. I have never done more than 4 weeks as a rotation… My best results w/ X (so far) seem to have come after 8 weeks… Guess you led me to the “magic”. Thank you for challenging my thinking on that. DH’s progress is already impressive! What a good coach you must be. I hope your “fat” sluggy – sloshy feelings are gone this morning. You & I have been together long enough to know that 99% is hormonal so maybe that will help just knowing that it shall pass. Trying to eat clean is so hard for me during these times but I also know that I move through them much easier & quicker when I’m not contaminated my body with Oreos & HFCS and general cra*. {{{{{{{Sandra}}}}}}}

:) MONICA: I was so happy to see you had Friday off and were taking advantage of some lounging time. I love those days! Eagerly awaiting your “news” and hope you were able to mentally rest at least part of the weekend. Your bread machine sounds wonderful! I would love having one but am a true carb addict so I doubt that’s my best investment. I can smell it all now!!! The best! Good thoughts flowing for todays news. {{{monica}}

:) TRACY: What an incredible way to bring it on L&B Friday! Your unassisted reps are just mind boggling! I hope you are very proud of yourself lady! Happy Happy Happy Final Week! On your brrrrrrr temps: How do you not get cabin fever in those temps? I just feel like a was a bear in past life as I totally want to hibernate during our short winters. What is your cardio of choice during warmer temps? I am ready to start re-incorporating some jogging and biking (thanks to Jeanette!) if I get a bike for my birthday in March. I too will be surfing around trying to find more functional fitness info & DVDs. I spent so much $$ in 2006 acquiring the Cathe library etc… that I really want a few good ones that do the job. Good job on Kenpo Saturday! I did mine at bay and didn’t take gloves thank heavens because my right shoulder feels like there’s something over stressed in it. Heating stuff/Ibupropin not touching it so may not be a muscle although that’s what it feels like. Started hurting about an hour after Kenpo… never felt a thing during workout. Thanks for sharing your new purchases w/ us! I am going to check out Core Attack and possibly order it today. Other than Master Series “Core Cardio” I don’t see any really close exchanges in Cathe Library.

:) STEPH: ALWAYS good to hear from you! Your life sounds ultra busy right now… additional Kudos for sticking with the X throughout al of it! Happy Recovery Week…. It’s so motivating to see Phase 3 in sight! That will surely keep you on track now that some of the residue of “negative energy” is subsiding! Just take it 1 workout at a time. About the boats… Sometimes you just have to modify things that are irritating other problems I think. For me I couldn’t do boats without major discomfort until my lower back strengthened with the Sandra Planks. On my back work… No bar. I started with bands over door then my Altus Home/Door Gym came so it’s much tougher again, but bands got me good phase 1. My back needed (needs) a lot of work but I want strength vs. muscle… don’t know if you can have without the other but there is no way I could have found any effectiveness w/ bar in beginning because my strength was non-existent. Maybe now but I wont be adding the bar to my collection. Awesome way to overcome L&B dread! You are mentally TOUGH! Also ^^^^5 on the pull-ups! PROGRESS! Enjoy recovery week… you deserve & need it! I think you’ll be happy with Core Cardio… a bit of all the things we know & love w/ a few twists to keep the body guessing! GREAT GS purchase! The band work alone is reason enough to invest…. You’ll be very happy I think.

:) DB: I FEEL your excitement and I tip my hat to you! GREAT way to bring it to the end. I actually cried (remember I’m a hormonal mess all the time) when I put away Shoul/Arms for last time. For some reason no tears shed for ARX tho! As far as pre-P90X stuff. I only did measurements as pics sometimes are a very negative image that I cannot shake. I think pics of my lower half tend to take me over the delicate edge of “Just Do It” to “Do it at any cost”… anyway – My smaller jeans purchase last week was awesome because based on my mirror I was very upset… but 2 sizes smaller in same jean style tells me PROGRESS! Enjoy every last Star Hop in Plyo today!

:) SUZ: Nice to see you pop in this weekend! Yet more cycling stories to get me really jazzed up! Congrats on arriving into Phase 3~ I agree that too much X is no better than too much of anything! I will probably base my next rotation on general results from Post X! I don’t see myself doing another 90 days in March as originally planned unless mentally I am prepared but I also can’t see myself NOT doing weight DVDs for 6 months…. We shall see how it all unfolds.
:)
 
Hi all,

Day 1 classic/ final week

I'm doing yoga again today. It will probably be Kest or Eion. I love the yoga guru yoga. I feel so good afterwards.

Not much time for anything this morning. It's back to work today. I did just finish making a worksheet for my planned push pull workout. I'm going to create my own plyo add on later today if I have time. I convinced myself yesterday that the lateral plyo moves have really helped my legs!

Traci - I go out and at least walk the dogs, even if it's real cold. I run too and once I get going, the cold doesn't seem to bother me. Your comments are great as usual and glad your back.

BBl with personals, great workouts to all.

Tracy
 
Hi Traci & Tracy!

I don't even know what week I am in anymore! I was back to the first Chest & Back workout yesterday.. is that Phase 3? I found that I can do more pushups than ever before, and when I did MM last week during "recovery" week, I lifted heavier in every excercise Cathe did! So the P90X is really working. I am horrible in the diet part and I know that is what is holding me back from any real change in the way my looks or how my clothes fit. I have such an obsession with food, it is crazy!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Deb B
 
Good Morning Ladies!

Not much to say this morning but that the roads were HORRIBLE and I really hope they're better for my commute home.

Plyo tonight. Last time, last time, last time, last time (at least for a while). Traci, just for you, I'll make sure to bring it on the Rock Star Hops. Maybe even do the double time before Tony requests that I do.

Tracy, do you have good cold weather running clothes? My mom, upon request, purchased me some great winter running tights last Christmas and they make a big difference in my runs. Although I haven't been running outside this winter (TOO cold and dark), I can pretty much run in any weather with them.

Deb B, congrats on your push-up accomplishment. Keep up the good work.

Hello to all and I'll be reading!
 
Morning X'ers,

Classic/Ph2/Week8/Day7

Tomorrow is the beginning of Ph3. But today is StretchX and then the end is only 5 weeks away. :)

Really cold this morning, just didn't want to get out of the comfy bed. ;-)

Best get to work, always busy on mondays.

Have a great day!

Laurie
 
Core Syn completed! Still planning on Boot Camp Cardio + Total Body Stretch 3
Feel like Core Syn was my best effort yet… Kept abs engaged + booty tight and was able to execute moves I had not in the past few weeks. Actually felt stronger this final recovery week than any other before… either I am stronger or just so excited to be in final days that it’s mental strength!

Tracy: Enjoy your plotting & planning! I seem to live for that these past few weeks… tweaked it al AGAIN this morning!

DEB (fox2): LOL at your post… Where am I? What am I doing? Who am I? lololol I so relate! I do believe Ch&B means phase 3!!!!!WELCOME! Awesome gains thus far!

DB: Oh please be extra careful on the roads! I can just hear ya now yelling at a poor sap who rear ends you…. “You fool! I have to finish my X rotation!” ^^^^5 – I double dare yet again on the Rock Stars! I bet you do them for the rest of your life at least weekly!

LAURIE: ahhhhhh stretchX! What a wonderful day it is for you!!! Congrats on making it to Phase 3! KUDOS

Great day to all who are busily at work bringing it (or drinking coffee so then they can bring it!)
 
Morning, Xers!!

Classic/Phase 3 (woohoo!)/Week 1/Day 1!!!!

It was Chest and Back for me today. I brought it good and increased in everything!!! I am so glad that I have these sheets to look at. I can't believe the improvement from Week 1, especially in the pushup department. The only thing I didn't do right was the back flys at the end. I figured out on the last round that I had done lifts instead of flys. When doing lawnmowers, I overdid it a little too and tweaked this spot in my low, low back, just a twinge. I wish I could figure out how to strengthen that. Sometimes on the bike, I'll stand and really power off and it goes "pop" and then hurts just a little. Doesn't last even to the next day but it's like a little ligament or something down low that kind of gives. The rest of the workout was absolutely awesome and I got a big pump going in my arms. Tought it was funny when Tony said he was weeping because there were no more pullups to do.

I have a Spinerval session on Wednesday night with the Garage Boys, and think I will do Legs & Back on Thursday instead of Friday as my 60 miler (bike ride) is on Sunday and I need fresh legs for it. That's the problem with doing P90X during the regular cycling season is that certain workouts will compromise performance. I'll just do my best and forg... oh, you know the rest of the saying.

Traci, Oreos I understand, love them, haven't had one in ages though. My downfall lately has been the chips that DH keeps buying. There are none in the house right now and I'm hoping he doesn't pick any up. Not good for him or myself. 7 days early for TTOM? I'm due on the day of my 60 mile bike ride, but usually it doesn't bother me too much. I doubled my Evening Primrose oil and will see if I have less TTOM symptoms (mostly bloating, water retention, hate it, hate it). Sounds like Core Syn was all you wanted it to be. Hoping all this week will bring good feelings during your workouts. Probably a combination of being stronger and knowing you are really in the final stretch.

Tracy, I'm with you on the guru yoga stuff. I like it and helps me not dread the next move. Have any other yoga suggestions?

Fox2, that is encouraging that you went back to Cathe and lifted heavier. I've read other accounts where P90X grads didn't do as well, think it's the faster count or something. I know what you mean about the food obsession. In my next life, I want to have a hummingbird metabolism LOL!

DB, be careful on your commute. Around here, usually the afternoon drive is better than the morning. We've had such a dry winter, hardly any snow at all. Farmers aren't liking it as they'll have to pump water, use more electricity or diesel for that, instead of the irrigation ditches. Bring it good on PlyoX tonite. I have it in the morning. Hope I get some good sleep tonite as last night wasn't too good for me. Sunday nights never are for some reason. Hope I don't nod off at work today.

Laurie, congrats on making it to Phase 3. Loved typing that this morning.

I stayed up last evening and started and finished our bike club's newsletter. Glad that is behind me. I really need to go look at paint samples.

Got to run now,

Jeanette
 
Happy to report that its 9:30 and even my "add-ons" are completed! WooHoo! I really look forwrad to working out my first 2 days of period because its the only hours of the day when my cramps subside. Movement is so important in cramp management! ha
JEANETTE: Your week sounds REALLY leg heavy! Mine are aching for you already. But I know you love & are up for the challenge. You have officially experienced the Phase 3 HIGH of knowing how far you have truly come! I am so happy for you with all the great results... Just remember that you need to give yourself credit along with the program cuz if you dont bring it every week the magic cannot happen. I am really excited to be a part of watching your "mouth drop" every day as you really see the new found strength! :eek:Look out Garage Boys cuz Jammin' Jeanette is in the house!:eek:

Off to clean up and get the Monday errands done ....

Happy day & workouts to all that follow. See ya this afternoon.:7
 
Good morning everyone. Sorry I didn't really make it on over the weekend. I have a hard time getting on the weekends. I tend to enjoy my time with the hubby! He is in a band and had a show Saturday night -- we didn't get home until 3:30a.m.!!! That really messed me up on Sunday. I got up at 9a.m. but took two naps yesterday. Today Yoga X is on the schedule. I couldn't get my booty out of bed to do it before work, so I will do yoga after work. That is a good thing though. I find that when I work out in the morning and have nothing scheduled after work, I just come home and snack until dinner. Yoga will keep me busy from eating. I will probably sub Yoga Zone: Power Yoga for Strength and Endurance, as I don't feel like doing 90 minutes of Yoga X today. I will probably add on the Yoga Belly 7 though.

I have not yet heard from my doctor. I have the cell phone ringer and high+vibrate so I do not miss her call. I did a good job at not stressing too much this weekend over it. I try to stress over what I cannot control. sometimes it is easier said than done.

Looks like there were some interesting conversations in this thread over the weekend. Very interesting concerning how often to do the P90X rotation. I think once a year may also be good. Once I finish this rotation I will not want to do it again for quite some time. I really enjoy the workouts, I just don't like the feeling that I am tied to such a regimented schedule. I like to have more flexibility. In fact, this is really the first rotation that I have every followed!

I will check back again later.

Everyone have a wonderful day.

LEAN/Phase 2/Week 7/Day 6

Hey, everyone! Just a quick pop in to say that I'm terribly jealous of all of you who are completing Phase 3! You guys worked so hard and it's really inspiring to read about all your gains in strength, definition, and flexibility. I'm about to embark on Phase 3 and I can already see what this program has done for me - I don't want to give it up, although I am starting to get a little bored with some of the workouts. I may have to start silencing the music and listen to my own. That might help. Tonight is KenpoX, and then I'm ready for recovery week, baby!!

Monica, I'm still thinking about you and praying that everything turns out well. You have such an amazing attitude about not stressing out over things you can't control. I ALWAYS stress out about things I can't control!

Glad to hear that everyone's bringing it today!
Steph
 
Good afternoon everyone! It sounds like everyone is on track (even if you don't know where you are!) this morning except me! I had a busier morning than I anticipated and am having problems getting down to a workout. I also fell again this morning...on the ice...I know you guys must think I am the biggest klutz...and well, I am. I ripped my jeans and skinned my knee pretty good too...and think I reinjured my buttocks!! Any way, just wanted to drop by and try to get some motivation today. I did feel good about Sh and Arms Saturday...I was either able to raise my weights or my reps on almost every exercise.

Monica....Still keeping our fingers and toes crossed for good results for you. I know what you mean about this regimented schedule. I am obviously having trouble with the same thing!

Jeanette...Congrats on all of your increases! That's great news! Have fun biking away this week! Good luck with your paint samples...I always enjoy changing room colors...it makes everything feel so clean and fresh!

Traci...Well, you obviously came back raring to go! Glad you had a great weekend with your DH. You must be counting down the hours until you are done with this rotation! Congrats on all of your acheivements so far. And keep those oreos away from me!!!

Deb...Don't get too discouraged with your diet. Just try your best everyday and don't take any lapses too hard. It's easy to eat something you're not supposed to and then just say forget it for the day and continue down a path you don't want to be on. Great job with increasing your push up reps...Even if you feel your diet isn't on par, at least you know how well the exercises are working for you. Good luck!


Hi to Laurie, DB (be careful!), Tracy (have fun with yoga), X, Lea, Steph and Sandra!!

Hi Steph!

The nurse at my doctor's office called this morning to let me know they do not have my results yet. She said that they hope to have them by WEDNESDAY! Can you believe that. I am going to try to continue not to stress, we'll see.

Monica
 
Hi X’ers… Hope all is well this afternoon.

TRACY: FYI for you… I ordered Core Attack today thru Amazon (same price as other site) … looks incredible, thanks for suggestion. Also as of today I am using soy milk-lite in my coffee – off the powdered non dairy… Last of the daily unclean foods! YEAH and I upped my Evening Primrose as of today. We shall see what happens with that in a few weeks. Thanks for all the suggestions!

MONICA: I cannot imagine waiting til mid week for test results! I am so sorry … we are all pulling for ya. Sounds like you and DH have a ton of fun on weekends! Smart move using workout tonight to divert attention from snacking… I finally replaced PM snacks with tea a few months ago but gotta tell ya its REALLY hard when DH is eating nightly desserts.

STEPH: happy Phase 3 and don’t give up! I know totally about the boredom you are starting to feel but remember that Ph 3 is a bit more mixed up than other phases. Try your own music- great thought! Also try the “countdown” that Sandra & I do. 4 more Legs & Back etc… that really helps put it in perspective on days you just got the I don’t wanna’s!
You can do it one day at a time!

DEBRA: OH NO! Not sore buttocks again!!!!! My goodness we gotta get you out of that environment! You poor thing… just make sure that back isn’t hurting before doing strenuous stuff! GREAT way to bring it on Sh & A Saturday. Hope you got those much deserved DOMS! Be careful today!

SANDRA: FYI- I made the Tosca Eat Clean recipe Tomato & Garlic Soup.... YUMMY! Would be my favorite soup EXCEPT that like a dork I forgot to remove Bay Leaf before puree so its a bit too Bay-Y for my taste! lololol ** Note is now in cookbook!

Hope everyone else is doing well.
 
Hi everyone, just wanted to check in because I have been lurking, but not able to post. My youngest DS woke up with a fever and so I have been sitting with him all day. It was suppose to be yoga day today, but I think that I can pass that off. And I was going to get Tosca's book too. Darn. There is always tomorrow. Hopefully DS feels better.

I hope that everyone is doing well. Have a great night.

CL/PH3/WK1/Day1: Chest & Back; ARX

Good evening,

Step Blast w/u & combos 1&3 is done, Chest & Back is done, ARX has yet to be crossed off the list. I'll do that tonight when DH does P90 Sweat & abs. I was dreading C&B so much today that I dreamt about it last night. But in my dream, I figured out how to do u/a pull ups, and could do dozens at a time LOL!! I guess I was looking to boost my confidence a little, hey?

Chest & Back felt like a beast today. I increased my push up count in most places and my form on the pull ups was much better than it has been. Did a couple unassisted. I can feel my back more today than I remember ever feeling with any of the workouts. I like that. I'm so happy to note that I only have to do that workout one more time!!

Traci - Well, that sucks that AF came so early for you this month!! Grrrr. But Mmmmmm, oreos!!!! Your DH sounds scary with his weights! My DH doesn't seem to be stuck on the amount of weight he's lifting, thank goodness. Nothing worse than injuring yourself so you can't exercise at all (unless that was his plan all along? ;) ) And you're exactly right! One thing I've learned from P90X is that I need to be patient with myself: all these feelings pass. I'm sure you did so well with CoreSyn today because you've gotten that much stronger. All your work is working! I had planned to make that same soup this week!! That's funny. I ended up not buying the tomatoes, so will have to put it back on the list for next week. Now that it comes so highly recommended I'm determined to try it. I made her Sweet Inca porridge. That's pretty good. Very filling. I couldn't finish my bowl this morning. Tomorrow's dinner is going to be her wild rice casserole thingy. It has tofu in it. Don't tell the family.

Tracy - Very interesting that you're making up your own workouts like that. What kind of things are you putting in them? Have you ever considered becoming an instructor?

Deb B - that's very motivating to hear how well you did with MM last week. Good work!

DB - last time with PlyoX!! Enjoy!!!!

Laurie - XStretch...nice one.

Jeanette - all that you do, and you write the newsletter too? You're a busy lady! I'm glad you did so well with Chest & Back today. I wonder if we'll be feeling the same DOMS we experienced with Week One?

Monica - Wednesday?!? Oh, I can't believe you have to wait so long for such important test results. I'm sorry. I hope Yoga went well tonight. I too find some days that the most beneficial part of excerising is it prevents me from eating for at least an hour!

Stephanie - Nice to see you! I'm in a similar state as you: getting bored with the program but determined to see it to the end because I want the results. I'm seeing some increased definition, so I'm hoping these next few weeks really help me "pop."

Debra - Nice progress on SA! I enjoy that one, and get to do it on Wednesday. And yes, you appear to be a huge klutz ;) Please take care of yourself.

Lea - Ooooh, a child with a fever.....I hope he feels better really soon (and you don't catch what he's got).

Have a good night,
Sandra
 
Hi all,
Will take a little time now for more personals, but I need to do AbX and have DH do it with me. He worked hard sledgehammering clinkers in a boiler today that he doesn't want to work out his arms at all. He's had enough of that today, but agreed to work out abs.

Traci, yes, it's going to be a leg heavy week for sure. Somehow, I'll make it. I used to have Mondays off and it helped me recover from biking activities on the weekend but won't happen this time. I'm so excited as the weather should be nice for the ride. I'm thinking for some reason that the Garage Boy's session will be a tougher Spinerval than the leg workout of last week. Just a feeling. I am excited at how much lower I can go on pushups. Before I used to hate them and could barely get 10 or 12 done with Cathe (on toes). Now I can do quite a few more. I'm really steeling myself for the rest of the rotation. Glad that it changes up the weight work each week. Couldn't have gotten this far and feeling so good about it if it weren't for you and all the others here. Yes, we've become quite a little band and I'm proud to be checking in here every day. Powdered non-dairy, hmmm... I'm of the liquid french vanilla creamer, just as bad though. Let me know how the soy-lite goes.

Monica, sorry you have to wait so long for results. Really been thinking and praying for you that all will be well. Glad you enjoy time with your DH. I love spending time with mine, though there was a time about 10 years ago or more when things weren't so good. So worth it to stick it out. I'm hoping Yoga Zone is good for you. I too have a difficult time devoting 90 minutes to YogaX.

Steph, give it your all with KenpoX tonite. Recovery is just around the corner!

Debra, sorry you fell on the ice. Hope you don't have any long lasting effects from it. It just flat hurts to fall. Even when I come close, the adrenaline just shoots thru the tops of my hands. My body just doesn't want it to happen. I still need to get those samples. Maybe tomorrow after work.

Lea, sorry about DS not feeling well. Hope you stay healthy too.

Sandra, too funny about dreaming about C&B. I do that kind of stuff too. Think I will sleep pretty well tonite as last night wasn't good. Sundays are never good for some reason. Too keyed up over cycling maybe, I don't know. Glad you reminded me that I only have one more time with C&B. Actually, the pushups have gotten so much easier with this one and I didn't dread any of them today. Yes, I do a monthly newsletter. It's set up in Word, with some graphics and I fill it with stories that other cyclists write of rides they've done or training tips or upcoming events, classifieds, etc. I'll do it for this year and see how the club goes as it's kind of on the brink of making or breaking it as far as attendance during get togethers and rides. Re: DOMS from Chest and Back, I'm just slightly sore tonite, but I was looking in the mirror (a good mirror) and I could see a little chest muscle cleavage (when the light was right). Never had that before. Pushups just work the chest better than any barbell work I've done.

Got to get DH going on AbX (and myself now).

See you all in the A.M.

Jeanette :7
