Insomnia struck so I already got my workouts done for today. Did two Cathe lives, Cardio Strength Blast and then Metabolic Circuit Blast.

Doreen, I love RWH Plyo 2 too. Of course, I love step work. I find 2 easier than 1.

Diane Sue, that looks like a good leg workout.

Have a great weekend everyone.
 
Good evening,

Laura, I liked the leg workout yesterday. I am not so sure about the Upper body today. It was pretty hard on the shoulder I think. I am not a real fan of non stop high rep workouts. It was a burner though. This was my last Live workout day for awhile. I cancelled it for now.

Belinda, working through that list ;)
 
I think I remember that Cathe live!! Barbell upper body. I liked it.
I did Amy Bento Adv step challenge 5 this morning. This one still challenges me as I have not yet mastered all the combos!
Then I popped in rocking body by shaun t that I had found at the thrift for $1. What a hoot. Just basically a kickbox kinda wo but they dressed everyone up in nightclub type outfits and try to make a cardio/toning workout feel like dancing.
 
Good evening,

Today I did Yoga Body Makeover Series : Power Seat Yoga and On the Ball Yoga (Bonus) = 60 min. I forgot how amazing Yoga on the Ball was. I feel all stretched out today. I also did Leslie Swanson 5 mile Challenge walk.

This morning DH and I cleaned out the garage a little more. My car is full with bags of cloth and ready for Goodwill tomorrow:)

Diane Sue - looking at all your Cathe live workouts, want me to sign up :) Good job.

Dorren - that is a tough one. That is a great price for Shane T. I have that dvd too.

Good night, ladies.
 
No workout today. It was a rest day and mowed and did outside stuff before we get more spring rains. It is our family day so I spent a couple of hours at my daughters house. I got to see my grandson's first car :) He is excited. My husband took him out to help him learn how to choose a car and how to work with dealers to get the price down. He gets his license this month.

Doreen, is that Amy's last Step Challenge workout? I never did work at mastering it. I got it around the time I had the knee surgery and I tried some of it but at the time the pivots and stuff hurt my knee. I really should get it out and try it again.

Belinda, yoga with a stability ball sounds like a good stretch. I have a really good one for the TRX that really helps a lot and is not too long. I have another TRX one that is basically yoga. It is a little longer than the other and is a bit difficult doing a crescent pose with one foot in the TRX. It really challenges the balance.
 
I'm out at least for today. My plantar fasciitis is really bad today. I can barely get up and down the steps in my house. Will just try to rest and stretch it out some today.

Have good workouts and a good day everyone.
 
Good afternoon,

This morning I did ICE Metabolic Total Body premix #4 Warm Up + Main Routine + Blizzard Blast + Stretch - 60:11.

Laura - sorry about plantar fasciitis acting up again. Keep rolling, icing and get some rest.

Diane Sue - how exciting about your grandson's new car :) How old is he? I need to look into TRX. Love anything with a stability ball.


I will be back tomorrow. Have a great Monday, everyone.

I then did Ripped with Hiit Lift it Hit it legs Strength only premix, 31 minutes, 210 calories.

Belinda, that was a nice long premix :) My grandson is 16 this month. So is one of my granddaughters. She got a Red VW to drive. It will be good for both of them. My granddaughter does aftercare at her school for her job. My grandson got a job cleaning at their church so they both need transportation. I worry a lot with all of them driving. That will be 5 of them. It will be a few years for the next group of them as the oldest there is 8.

Laura, I am sorry about the plantar fasciitis:( I hope that you can get it better.

Hey girls,

my internet is going out a lot today? Maybe all that rain/thunder we having? Who knows! I did a 4 mile walk and abs today.

Diane Sue - that is a nice, first car for a 16 year old :) I hear you on being worried when they drive. Heck, I am worried with my 26 year old and 30 year old drive :p They gonna be fine! Good job on your workouts.

I will be back tomorrow.
 
Belinda, we have had our share of storms lately. The next ones are coming in Sunday. I really do not mind the rain as long as we don't have floods and no hail and tornado. I think the damage we see the most often is hail and wind damage. Trees and power lines down.
 
Diane Sue - we get a lot of thunder/lighting lately. My dog Brawler is terrified of thunder/lightning. He keeps me up all night long. I do have meds to calm him down. Sorry to hear you getting slammed with with bad weather. Keep safe!
 
Hi girls,

Today I did XTrain AOLIH remix # 15 Double Step and Disc Cardio - 42:04. I also did Leslie Swanson Mile Booster Walk. I am done for today.

I had to work off that cake that DH got us for my bday.

I will be back tomorrow. Have a wonderful day and workout, everyone.
 
Today I did X Train Hard Strikes with the heavy bag tabatas, 60 minutes, 445 calories. I got out early and hit Sprouts Farmers Market. I bought a packet of the Amazing Grass Protein Superfood in Chocolate Peanut butter. I was surprised how good this was. I figured that it would be as nasty tasting as most of the vegan protein powders.

Belinda, happy birthday :) My dog Gertie is not real afraid of storms. If it gets loud she may grumble at it. She does stay out of her crate in the florida room because it gets pretty loud when it rains hard and there is hail on the glass. She will lay on one of her doggie beds upstairs or in the livingroom.
 
Thanks you Diane Sue :) Brawler always been afraid of loud noises :( When we lived in Germany the thunder wasn't as bad as the ones here in the US. He gets so scared, I am afraid he is getting a heart attack. Poor thing! I talked to my vet and he recommended I give him some meds. I also have to put a thunder blanket on him. The thunder blanket doesn't work, IMO! The meds do. My other dog ChuChu isn't afraid of anything. He sleeps right through the noise. Glad yours isn't afraid off loud noises.
 
Hello ladies, my left heel is still bad. I'm barely managing the steps in my house, so I will be laying low for a bit.

Belinda, happy birthday and best wishes. Mine is next week. We are both May babies.

I'll be getting together with my mom and dad this weekend for birthdays/Mother's day. She will be seeing her surgeon about hip replacement on my birthday. She is blind and diabetic. My father is also disabled. I will have to go stay with them for a while after the surgery to help out. They live an hour and a half away. I'll know some more next week.

Again best wishes and great workouts both of you.
 
Belinda, I was reading a woman's book where she was talking about fear and anxiety and she used her little dog as an example. The poor dog was so stressed during storms and they would stay up all night trying to soothe it. Finally they got it a spot in the closet with a bed made down in the corner and that is where it would find the most relief. The story was more the emphasis on how fear and anxiety affect health.

Laura, I am so sorry that you are still having that many problems. It sounds like you have a lot going on anyway so maybe a break is needed. I hope you mother gets through the surgery well. I have never known anyone that has had hip replacement.
