    Spring into Summer check-in - 5/25

    Ironically, we had pizza for dinner tonight! But I had egg whites and toast since my tummy was a little upset from the Spinervals workout DH and I did. It felt good to work so hard. Tomorrow will be upper body with HIIT. Side note...I looked at pictures of myself from last year when we...

    Spring into Summer check-in - 5/25

    HMMMM...I just tried posting and it didn't go through...I hope this isn't a repeat! Yesterday was a bust for me, too, Kathy. I think I was still recovering from vacation and needed good nutrition and a good night's sleep, which I got so I feel much better today. I don't know what I'll do...

    Spring tnto Summer May 24

    Good afternoon! Mexico was truly a blast and the kids had a great time. Thanks to everyone for asking! My eldest especially liked boogie boarding. The middle boy didn't like the salt-water swimming so he stayed at the pool unless he wanted to build sandcastles. My youngest was pretty much...

    Spring into Summer--weekend edition May 22-23

    It's the Seattle to Portland bike ride. We're doing it over two days but many people do it in one (Ack!! no way!). DH and I plus my bro-in-law and a couple other folks will be riding together. I don't know how to train for this, either, except riding and increasing my milage every time. I...

    Spring into Summer--weekend edition May 22-23

    Just finished reading all of the "back issues" of Spring into Summer. Everyone is really busy! I had forgotten so much of what everyone was up to, so now I feel caught up. I thought about lifting tonight, but I just don't have it in me. Monday will be the day, but probably cycling. I've...

    Spring into Summer--weekend edition May 22-23

    Hello everyone! I wanted to check-in before we left but it was CRAZY getting everything in order. We had a great time in Mexico, but it is good to be home. The boys loved it, we had some great experiences and "adventures", and fortunately the boys didn't get sick. I got a little tummy upset...

    Spring into Summer 5/11

    Joy, that made me chuckle! Yesterday ended up being PP with the BC cardio+legs premix. Today will be Spinervals and abs. Last night DH adjusted my seat and handlebars and it feels so much better...my seat was too low too far forward. I'm kind of jazzed to spin today and see if I can do...

    Spring into Summer 5/10

    Good morning from the clouds and rain...I hope it gets sunny again! Yesterday I ended up spinning with DH and I was sucking air. DH and I think that my iron is low and there just wasn't enough to carry oxygen. Time for beans and spinach! I made it through all but the last 2 reps, so that is...

    Spring into Summer--weekend edition

    "Abuelos"...Judy, are you a fellow Latina? Well, I'm really starting to feel the mental strain of keeping up a rotation for 8 weeks. DH and I didn't spin last night (no real reason, just didn't want to), so tonight I'm going to lift (probably PP) and HIIT even though I really don't want to...

    Spring into Summer--weekend edition

    It's nearly 4pm PST and I'm the first to post! Today we had 3 baseball games and all of them got rained out, so we've just been hanging out with the grandparents for the afternoon. Tonight DH and I will spin. Question...I'm not really "feeling" my workout from yesterday (SS). I lifted as...

    Spring Into Summer - 5/7

    Well, this is late in the day and you just may not see it...but for the sake of accountability...Yesterday was a no-go for me. Today was SS and SB Challenge (two times). SS wasn't frying, so that was a nice break even though the challenge got me on #3. Tomorrow will be Spinervals with DH...I...

    Spring into Summer 5/6

    Wow. That's a lot of bicep work...I'm crying after PUB alone, much less the additions. I'll definately be interested in your results! Brenda, glad you found some sort of bathing suit. I'm not of the well-endowed group, plus I'm short so the little string tops fit me...it's finding...

    Does anyone use the Terminator DVD?

    Love, love, love the Terminator DVD. My fave is also The Gauntlet. I always do it as produced. IMAX Xtreme is also wonderful for those all-out cardio days. From what I've read on the forum not everyone loves The Viper, but I really like it and use it for and upper body- focused circuit. In...

    Spring into Summer - 5/5

    Good afternoon! Today will be KPC or Spinervals. I'm leaning toward KPC and Spinervals this weekend (or and actual outdoors bike ride if it's not raining). Yesterday ME was tough...I hadn't done that one in a while and I tried to go as heavy as I possible could (e.g. 50 lbs. for legs vs. the...

    Spring into Summer check-in - 5/4

    Hi to everyone. Sorry I haven't posted in a few days...actually I tried yesterday (typed it out and everything) but when I check later it didn't post. Oh well. The past weekend was super crazy-busy-fun as we had a big party for my dad's retirement and my whole family was here. There were 13...

    Bikini Countdown - April 30

    Hi everyone. Today was also a day "off" , although I don't know if it really was since I cooked for 6 hours straight (big family party)...plus with the cold I'm just wiped. Tomorrow is the party, so that'll take my whole day but it'll be so much fun. I hope the cold is gone tomorrow...

    Bikini countdown - April 29

    Hello everyone and good afternoon/evening. We have a lovely little cold virus infecting our whole family, so yesterday was a bust. By the time I got home from baseball practice I was sneezing and my nose felt like it was going to explode. This a.m. I managed to do the standing leg work from...
