Tracy - So good to 'see' you :cool:! Afterburn was still tough this week - but at least it was a smidge easier than last week ;). And when I do Afterburn tomorrow, I'm going lighter on the wts on the squats w/ overhead press - there must be a 1000 of those blasted things :eek:! Once I get past...

Melinda - Congrats on getting those beginning rocky days in :D! I'm the same way so I understand wanting to know how to do it all and right away at that :p. I am glad you're enjoying it so far - fingers crossed it gets better every day :)! Hope your sister is doing better! I'm amazed you had...

Here is the new thread, ladies :D.

Happy Easter, all :D! Hope everyone of you has a blessed weekend :cool:.

Rhea - Congrats on those pushups :D!!!!! I'm still a weenie when it comes to them :rolleyes:... I don't think my joints were designed for them :p. Pretty much same ole here except I decided I should do endurance for a few weeks since it's been forever. Started this week and thought I was gonna...

Melinda - Hopefully the stretching will help a lot - sounds like those poor legs need it :).

Melinda - Hope you're feeling better or have a clue on what you need to do to make it better!!! Thinking of you :)!

Melinda, the 5 were: weighted torso twist, behind the neck pulldowns, skullcrushers, leg raises for lower abs, and box jumps. As for your conundrum - wow, that's a toughie :eek:! Do you feel like you're having a huge body-sized cramp? I know muscle cramps are usually alleviated by taking...

Melinda - No foolin', huh ;) :p? So glad you have a start date - that's an obvious great sign! I was reading an article today on Yahoo! (5 exercises even the best trainers won't do) and 3 of the 5 are ones we're very familiar with.... Namely, the plyo jump onto the step/box (which I don't do :p...

Tracy- CONGRATULATIONS :D :D :D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds like you are doing a terrific job :cool:! That is the one problem with extreme measures - it's too easy to cave after them :( :o.... Maybe if you plan to remain a bit more strict thru the week then you can loosen up a bit in SF. Not...

Melinda - I'm sure all is fine with the job. They'd be crazy not to hire you :D!!!! So sorry DH is ill :(! Fingers crossed it passes quickly - and you don't get it!!!

Melinda - So glad you still want to meet here, too :D!!!! I think we're a pretty good group of gals ;). Guess I'm surprised they're doing all this checking AFTER they hired you :confused:! Sounds like how the people in my office work :p! This past round of 5 days I really wanted to skip...

Tracy - I am so glad :D! I was quite sad thinking I'd lose touch with everyone!!! But you know me - I do NOT FB or Twitter or any of that stuff! When I get that much time on my hands, I'll get a dog ;). I'm sure the results are already showing up - just not in drastic measures :). Hang in there...

Ladies, I have been thinking since Tracy made the comment about you all visiting on FB.... Would you all like to keep coming here, too, or is this just too much? Just let me know.... I'd miss you all terribly bad but I would understand.

Melinda - That's the one I did :). I think I'm finally getting to a place where it's not about the schedule - it's about how I feel. So this week I only did 3 days - wts and just a few HiiTs each day (from the XT series). When I try to do the longer HiiTs (like all of Tabatacise), my joints just...

Melinda - Congrats on the job and getting a higher pay :cool:! Fingers crossed for you :)!

Tracy - Good luck to you, my friend :D!!!!!!!!!!! Sending tons of positive thoughts your way!

Melinda - It is great to 'see' you :D! CONGRATULATIONS on the bachelor's AND the job offer!!!! Please do keep us posted - inquiring minds need to know ;)!!!! Sorry you're so cold - it's been brutal for my sister in PA for over a month now - and she's not suffering nearly as much as Boston :eek...

Melinda - You're not frozen in place back there, are you :eek:????

Rhea - So glad to see you :D! Tracy - I finished 8 weeks of RWH and am now doing the XT series. I actually went back to weights quite some time ago. I figured if it didn't hurt ;)... I will never be able to go heavy on lower body, though - that's just how it is. But I'm happy with where I am...
