Bikini countdown- weekend edition 4/24

[dutchgirl]

Hi everyone,

Since this week is still a 'do my own thing' week, I decided to do Rhythmic Step this morning. I had so much fun ! I just love this routine. Afterward, decided to work on some flexibility and stress release and popped in Sunrise Yoga. It was a nice 20 minute add on to help lengthen out some of my muscles. So I feel ready to start my day.

Not much going on this weekend. I'm working on a paper, need to get groceries and cat food, need to do laundry, etc. The weather is nice (although not as warm as where you are Shywolf) so I may grab set up my small patio set and work on my laptop outside.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Good afternoon-
Its a beautiful day here so I wanted to check in for a quick moment to see what's going on. Sabine, glad you had a good time w/Rhythmic Step! Good luck w/your paper- yuck.

Looks like I'm going to do legs/shoulders S&H today to give my joints a rest from HIIT and my chest is fried from S&H yesterday. Tomorrow may be a day off, I'll see how I feel.

Hope everyone is having a relaxing Saturday.

It is beautiful here in the Pacific Northwest! Sunday is supposed to be even better (low- to mid- seventies ). My neighbor and I walked this morning, and I might do something like yoga in a bit...but I might not! Tomorrow DH and I are probably going to go on a bike ride after church, however that is what we said last week and didn't! So we'll see. Sunday is the one day that I usually rest since it is such an early morning and a long day for me.


Sabine, hope your paper-writing went smoothly.

Brenda...how many more days for you? And what do you plan for next week? I'm staying heavy but switching to PS series.

Hi to everyone else!

Good Sunday morning~

I got my HIIT out of the way first thing this a.m. which was really good (I ran my hills) and now I don't have to think about it. I'm trying to do it early on an empty stomach to see if that really helps burn more fat. Anyone experience a difference?

This is what the following week holds:
Mon - Leaner Legs
Tues - HIIT (using IMAX1)+ ab work
Wed - S&H Biceps/Triceps or PUB
Thurs - HIIT (using IMAX2 or Bootcamp)+ abs
Fri - S&H Legs/Shoulders
Sat - HIIT (hills)
Sun - off

I haven't done MIS for a while so I may check that out and a few others workouts I've been neglecting.

CinDee, I don't have PS otherwise I'd throw it in there. How would you compare them? I leave on May 20 so a little over 3 weeks - how about you? Did you get a new bathing suit? I'm waiting one more week before I start trying them on.

Judy, I may try to play some tennis in the next week or two so wish me luck! I already got my tennis whites (skirt/top) - so cute!! Now I just need to learn how to play.

Looks like things will be slow around here so I'm signing off and will start cleaning up around herex( .

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Hi everyone and hope that you are enjoying your Sunday!

I woke up pretty early because re-writes for my paper were going through my head. To temporarily divert my attention I decided to do Supersets. I wanted a bit more ab work so did the Leaner Legs ab routine as well. I feel really good right now. I may try to do a brief yoga program tonight before bed so I can get a sound night's sleep. The paper gets turned in tomorrow so I won't ruminate about re-writes for too much longer.

Thanks for the positive vibes about my paper, Cindee. Sounds like you're having a fabulous weekeend.

Brenda- All I can say is WOW! when I see your schedule for next week. How long is a HIIT rotation supposed to last? For me (most especially my bad knees), I couldn't imagine doing this for more than 4 weeks tops. Are you planning on keeping with this until Vegas? You go on girl!

Seems pretty quiet around here so I'm signing off for now. Have a great day!
