40's March Maddies

Good Evening,

I did KCM Wts 2 with Cardio Rests it was a good workout I just can't go as heavy as she does. It didn't get anywhere near 50 today maybe 40 but thats a stretch.

Mary-I love Chipoltle chicken burritos are awesome.
 
Hi all

Swapped Yoga for Ride today - just what I needed after the madness of the past few days. The problem for me with letting other people organise my holiday is that I can't! I have to have an opinion, look at places etc. but sometimes moan about doing it all ...
We're going to a quiz at school tonight, pizza first.
Then on Sunday going to another country house. Weather's supposed to be nice on Sunday.
Just saw my first butterfly.

Mary - I love Mexican food!

Lisa - I suspect you might have the same attitude as me! :D

Have a good weekend, everyone.
 
I did jumping and reformer, 60 min total. Off to massage. My neck isn't hurting near as much with pilates as when I do the other w/o's. I'm still trying to get my lower back not hurting....walking a lot makes it hurt, not sure if all the days in a row of walking just overdid it for where my spine is lined up now or if I'm just getting old.

Ronne's eating pizza, Mary's eating Chipolte and I'm being good and still not losing any more weight. Must have hit a plateau :( There now that I've said it, I know the scale will move now! :) or is it wishful thinking?
 
Found that the lower back pain I've had since my acdf surgery on my neck was probably caused from the surgery and made worse with walking the dogs. My fabulous massage therapist thinks a small knot formed after surgery on right muscle from lumbar spine to hip and walking the dogs on short leashes held by my right hand made it worse. Amazing how the body works. I hope this is the last problem! She thinks we'll know at one year post surgery if and where my muscles will be sensitive for pain or knots.
 
I finally did AB. I followed Lisa's suggestion and did the premix with 1 round of each cycle. I added on some upper body work and abs from AT. Feels good to be getting back in the saddle.

Ronne - yes, I am doing the March rotation. I like it so far.
Mary - I love Mexican food too.
Lisa - I have not lost much of steroid weight. I think I hit a plateau too. I was okay for a minute, but then it stopped. I hope getting back to exercising will help.

Waves to Roxie and Jody.

Good morning! Was busy yesterday, never made it here, I did do X10, double low impact. Not sure what I'll do today, woke up with a cold, gift from my lovely children! Murphy, I avoid AB, it seems so long! Your muscle has a long memory, it will be waiting for you. Lisa, your massage therapist sounds like a genius! Roxie, I get the same thing from Chipoltle every time! I love the chicken bowl. Ronne, hope you are having fun this weekend! Jody, I hope school/wok isn't beating you up too much. Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
Good Morning,

I was busy yesterday so I didn't get a chance to check in. I didn't workout yesterday couldn't get out of bed and I know this new time change is going to kick my butt. I did KCM's Start Here 1 and who knew 5lb wts could feel like 10 and then I walked on the TM for 30 minutes. Its cold here again today suppose to be 38 but the sun is now shining.

Mary-I get the chicken burrito but I don't put any beans or salsa on it.

Lisa-glad the therapist is working for you.

Murphy-you will get back to normal strength soon.
 
Did ME. I forgot about this one. I keep it on the bottom b/c of BC. BC has just too much jumping for me. I cannot do it anymore. I also forgot that ME is over an hour long, one hour and 7 minutes. It is only 7 minutes, but after do 30 and 45 minutes, 67 minutes seems like forever. I must say, time did move quickly so I really should not complain.

Just a quick note to say thank you for all the support. It helps, it means a lot and I really, really, really appreciate it.

Waves to all.

Murphy
 
Hi all, did you set your clocks forward? The day is flying by! Yesterday I did 30 min of jumpboard and 30 min reformer, today I did 60 min reformer and 2.85 mile walk. It's beautiful today (yesterday was snow). We head out to Kansas early tomorrow morning to look at the rental house for my DS. Never been to Kansas :) So the next 2 days will be rest days, yippee!

Murphy, good job doing what you can do and letting the rest go! I'm thinking I need to be gentler to my body and I'm not going to feel guilty about it! This group is a great source of support, without you guys the last year would have been tougher. As it is, I look back and think, how did I get thru that? It's because of my DH, DS's, BFF, and you all!

I'll be reading, but probably not posting (unless I see something spectacular in Kansas....yea, I probably won't be posting :) )
 
Hello! Today did a barre like w/o that was on Booyah for the day. Lisa, have fun in Kansas! I have never been there either, is that where Dorothy is from? (Wizard of Oz). Aren't you in Kansas Roxie? Murphy, I haven't done ME in forever! Is that the one with all the leg presses? I think of you often and keep you in my prayers. Although none of us have "met", I hold you all dear. Jody, are you on spring break yet? Ronne, tell us the fun you got into this weekend! Today was just cleaning, cooked for tomorrow, wash, Walmart. All cuz I was lazy yesterday! Have a good day! Mary
 
Good Afternoon,

We went to DH's sisters house for nephews 13th birthday and GS was there so it was a fun day windy but the temp was in the 60's so not bad.

Mary-yes that is where the wizard of OZ was filmed but we here in Kansas get a little irritated with that.

Lisa-you wouldn't be missing much if you never visited and especially out there be prepared for alot of wind more then you are use to but the temps are suppose to be decent this week.
 
Good morning! Today did XT legs. Roxie, sorry about that! Glad you get to enjoy GS. Lisa, have fun on your road trip! Ronne, how are your folks? Jody, come back! Murphy, hello to you! Nice day here, snow storm coming on Wednesday! Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
Hi everyone

Mary - how's your cold? Are you feeling better? What's Booyah? Did I miss something?

Roxie - glad you had a nice time with GS and family.

Lisa - enjoy Kansas!! Hope DS finds a nice place.

Murphy - I'm with you on the March rotation, although I am subbing a few here and there as I feel like it.

Jody - hope you're keeping your head above water.

Had a nice weekend. The sun shone and I even got some washing out yesterday!
Quiz was good on Friday night although we didn't do so well! :eek:
Then had a lovely day out at a place called Upton House yesterday. Beautiful grounds and the sun was shining so it was lovely.
Got some yoga in over the weekend and did CSS today. Tried a different premix, did the Express + Step premix. Found it tougher than the original.
 
Good Evening,

It was a beautiful day here 77 degrees and a little wind so I had to go outside for a walk I did 2.09 miles and it felt great.

Mary-no worries I have heard it all my life.
 
Roxie, I think it was downright hot ! I guess I never realized Kansas was 2500 ft Lower in elevation than my mile high city of Denver. :)

7 hrs on the road today and we are driving back tomorrow, I'd prefer to click my heels 3 times to go home vs drive 7 hrs back. Dorothy's House and statue of here is here in liberal, Kansas? No, I won't visit the tourist trap.
 
Hi ladies

Quiet around here! Did L&G as per rotation. Just had a delicious feta salad but I'm still feeling hungry!
 
Good Evening,

I was busy at work today so I couldn't check in until now. I just finished KCM's Body Training 2 Floor work and it is even with Cathe's floor work. It is really windy here gusting to 45 and the temp has dropped from 76 to 62.

Ronne-good job with your workout.

Lisa-it is alot warmer out there then here and windier.
 
Did CSS today. I did a premix and it used the discs a lot. I was exercising on mats and the discs just did not work well, even with the cloth. I have to put the rug back down. The discs worked great on that.

CollageVideo is having a going out of business sale. The Cathe's are not really at going-out-of-business prices, but there are others.

forgot who asked about ME - yes, ME is the one with a million leg presses. ???
Ronne - you are a day ahead of me. I have L&G on the schedule for tomorrow.
Lisa - are you back?

Waves to all.

Murphy
 
Hi all

Murphy - glad you're keeping up with the rotation. I work on exercise mats but then have to move to the carpet to use the discs. The covers don't work on the mats.

Hi busy Mary and Roxie. Hope you're back Lisa and hope you're keeping your head above water Jody! :)

Did AT today. First time I've done it all the way through for a while. I still don't get that this only has a MET value of 7.5.
Sad to see that Collage are closing down, I just went crazy on their site and ordered 9 DVDs, including a few KCMs I didn't have. Also got Rumble for $3.99. I'll probably pay a fortune in customs charges but they'll still be a bargain.
