Good morning ladies!
Nora, sorry about your ear(s) problem, but hopefully it will clear soon. I hear ya' on the ear pressure....I get
build-up in my ear(s) quite often as well, and it's no fun, for sure.
Today's workouts:
YT-Coach Ali- "Shoulders Weight Plate Workout" - 19 min.
CrossRope App- 9 min. Upper Body Tabatas
The Firm- 12 Min. Time Crunch-Cardio DVD- Workout # 2 (12 Min.) Neat dvd, there are 4 12 min. cardio
workouts on this one and there's a 12 Min. Time Crunch Weights DVD as well, with 4 workouts too. These
are workouts that were found after Anna passed away that were filmed, but never made it to being
put on VHS/DVD and then were put on DVDs. They used to be affectionately called the "Time Crunchies"!
Cute. Just a little history
No workout planned for weekend, so have a great one everyone!

Hi ladies,
Nora sorry about your ear pain/pressure.
Today I did another Fitness Kombat Mix 58, the cardio portion only was about 43 minutes of sweat!! It was good and had more kicks like the previous one I did so this one would be worth repeating.
Of course with the trees gone and not blocking the sun it is harder to cool the house down during the day. Guess you win some and you lose some.
Nice workouts ladies!
I am sore from yesterday's workout.
Have a great day!!

I'm thinking about putting some RWH workouts on my calendar soon!
Anna Benson was the creator of the original Firm workouts back in the day..She didn't participate in the
Firm workouts, although years later, she did film a few workouts with just her in them. They weren't really
called The Firm, just ones she did.

Nice cardio blast for you, Nicki, with Gloved Up and Sweaty for 39 minutes

Great, see you're back with the jump rope or ropeless.....did you ever look at the CrossRope ropeless sets?
They're something else. I know Nora has them and I got the Get Lean set that came with the Slim handles
and 1/4 & 1/2 lbs. ropeless attachments. Later I did order the power handles and the 3/4 lb attachments.
I will confess, tho', that it's very hard for me with the 3/4 lb ropeless attachments. 3/4 lb doesn't sound like
much, but, boy, when you starting twirling those things, it's tough (at least for me) They're a little pricey tho'

Hi girls
Linda- Yes, the ears are still bugging me, oh well thanks for the kind words & well wished. There is a new bacteria that is trending and targeting fresh fruit & vegetables, it I gather very unpleasant with vomiting & other stuff,
it can be treated an antibiotic the news said, so that's good. I had a salad for dinner last night and it hit me early this morning. Not feeling great I did take some pepto bismal and that helped some.
