Trying to Fit Yoga In for Thurs April 9

[lorajc]

Morning Ladies -

This morning I did Amy Bento's In the Ring. Frustrated once again. Workout was 56" and I burned 455 calories. Not sure if I'll ever get these combos.

I need simple kickboxing........so I just ordered the new Tae Bos. They just came out and I was trying to decide if I should get them.....but this morning's workout pushed me over the edge. I wish Amy's were easier to follow.

Kel - Feel free to join us over at the Hardcore Fitness Maniacs. You don't really have to be a maniac (LOL).....the title Hardcore was just from the group of us that started doing a Hardcore rotation together when the series first came out. There are a lot of motivating women over there. I'm still trying to figure out what the Pentagarians check in is ....what the heck does that mean? Maybe I'm just a dunce cap....but I never heard of it.

Have a great day.

Good morning -

This morning, I did my last day of 4DS for the week... & I'm really glad about that - LOL! I did 4DS HIS plus Chest & Back. I'm still not quite back up to strength with my chest yet but I was able to do more reps with heavier weights than last week so I'm glad about that. I also still have some remaining DOMS in my lower body & my whole upper body feels fried today. So needless to say, I am really looking forward to my yoga day tomorrow!

Lora - Sorry that workout frustrated you again. From what I've read about it, I don't think I will get that one. In fact, I've gotten to where I don't enjoy kickboxing as much as I used to anyway so I will definitely stick with the more simple styles. Thanks for the invite to Hardcore. I read that thread every day & I'm always so impressed & inspired with the workouts those ladies do & how much many of them can lift but I also feel a bit intimidated too. I guess that's silly but that's what's been keeping me away. I'm not exactly sure about pentagarian either but since a pentagram has 5 sizes, I'm guessing maybe it's the over 50 thread?

Jen - So glad you checked in last night. It's always so good to hear from you. I'm sorry everything is still so stressful at work & I hope things calm down soon. I'm also sorry to hear about the IUI but I'm glad you're moving ahead with things. I hope everything works out & you get some good news soon. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts & keep my fingers crossed for you. No, you didn't miss my hair. I just posted some pics & updated my avatar today. I was very nervous about the change but I'm so glad I did it now!

Better scoot for now. Lots of work to do & I'm also meeting my DH at lunch to have our taxes done. Hope everyone has a great day!

Hi ladies! Tonight's WO was 30 minutes of fast walking followed by Turbo Jam's 20 minute workout. I added on Abs and Buns of Steel, Buns only segment 1. I wanted to get in some outdoor stuff today because it will be rainy/scattered showers and cold here on Fri, Sat, and Sun. On those days, I will get back to the BBC rotation I was in the middle of. That Buns of Steel workout was circa 2003, but it was still really good. I just like Tamilee's personality. She was wearing one of those thong leotards, which was a little funny, but I have to say she does have the buns to carry it off! LOL! You all have probably already discussed this, but what are you both concentrating on before STS comes out?

Looks like my next IUI attempt is Sunday. (Yep, they even work weekends at the IVF clinic since they never know how someone's cycle monitoring will fall.) Tonight will be my last regular fertility shot and then we do a trigger shot tomorrow night. Then the dreaded "two week wait". I am such a pro at all this now.

Lora-I am sure you will get those Amy combos if you keep at it. You can follow the likes of Patrick Goudeau and Rob Glick, so I am sure you will master Amy's too! What are the new Tae Bos that came out? I haven't seen anything about them.

Kel-I checked out the OAL thread at lunch today. Great pictures! I really love the new do. So you are thinking of going even shorter? That is awesome! I bet it would look really good....just make sure you are really, really ready. I alternate between short and long hairstyles and have been longing to go short again but just haven't found the right cut. I know what you mean about losing interest in the kickboxing, I feel the same way but I can't put my finger on why. I think it's the only cardio that I don't feel particularly relaxed after-maybe that's it? Congrats on finishing your 4DS rotation. What's next?

Yve-In my struggles to get caught up on news with everyone, I just read over a couple of the old threads. Congrats on the baby! Such exciting news! I would love to hear the details of the delivery and all (I have so many questions!) ...but of course only whatever you are comfortable posting. I know you and DH must be amazed with your new little family member each day. Does he resemble one of you more than the other? Hope you get the chance to check in with more news.

Have a great night everyone!
