Belinda, nice work on JS TB Circuit 2 and today's on Demand dance and Jessica Smith yoga flow release. I am so sleepy all of the time. We had an errand to run yesterday and I felt so ill. I guess from the meds. It passed after a while and I took a nap after I got home.

Roselyn, good job getting in leg day.

Debbie, praying your brother is well enough to go home tomorrow. Nice work on STS 2 Upper Body 1 Friday and Raw Kickboxing 5 on Friday.

Jolie - Glad your flooring went in well, I hope they fix the dips. They will crack eventually. Great job with your workouts.

Belinda - Great job on your workouts!!!

Diane - Is the pyramid workout the old Cathe Pyramids? Great job on the workouts you did yesterday!!

My brother is doing well, just still in the hospital but doing well. Hopefully he will be released soon!!

Have a great day everything!!
 
Sunday I walked the pup 4 miles
Monday I walked the pup 4.3 miles
Today's workouts was Cathe's Pure Strength, Chest, Shoulders and Triceps. I had a great workout today. I had to pause in between sets because I lifted much heavier than Cathe, I was in need of longer rest periods.

Debbie, great job with your workout, I love that one. I am so happy to hear that your brother is recovering from his surgery, that must have been very stressful for you.

Belinda, great job on the On Demand dance and yoga flow today. Can you just believe that I now have to re do an upstairs bathroom? I feel like everything is breaking in the house right now :(

Roselyn, nice job on the leg workout.

Daine Sue, nice job on the Pyramid pump and your stretch! How are you doing today, are you feeling better?

Make it a great day.
