Good Morning, Ladies!
Today is actually supposed to be a rest day for me, but I'm not sure I'm going to make it one. I also was contemplating a kettlebell workout.
I also think I have to brave the malls on this Black Friday, against my better judgement. DS needs some new clothes and wants to hit Hollister this weekend. He's with his Dad for the weekend, so that leaves me with today to get there. Ugh. NOT looking forward to this.
On the bright side, I do not have to work today....wooo hooo!!!
Goin' to get some java. BRB~

Our credit cards are probably thanking us for living in different states! 
I'm certain we could do some serious damage.
The one postive thing about having to go to the mall today is that it'll keep me away from the leftovers.
I'm thinking if I do a KB workout, it's going to be Iron Core Way 2 with the sprints on the treadmill during the rests. It's short and sweet at only 40 minutes, but it's a killer. BF got me a 25 lb. KB a few weeks ago. He had a coupon for Dick's that he had to use, but didn't need anything for himself. Oh well, lucky for him, I could think of plenty of things I "needed" and asked for that. Going that heavy with Iron Core Way makes the workout a real challenge.

Wow, a 25# KB!? I have two 15's and a 20 and I'm happy. 25 might kill me! LOL Enjoy it!
You are right about us not living close cause I LOVE to shop! I won't go out alone today but if I had a buddy I just might be tempted....
I am trying to decide between the original KBW work out or the new one, KBW2 that I just got. I haven't worked with the bells in quite a while so I'm going to be sore tmrw no matter what. Considering how much I ate and drank y'day, I think I'll go for the gusto and do the new release as it's probably tougher!
Man I wish I had a treadmill...

Heh, notice I have not said that I pull that 25-er out for Mr. Weber. THAT would kill me. I try to use my 20 for him, but find myself switching back to the 15 for some of his exercises. He's craaaazy.
Are those workouts you mention the Anthony DiLuglio (sp?) workouts? I still haven't gotten any of his yet. They look so good, but they are pretty pricey. I don't know why I'm so reluctant, because I obviously have no issues spending money on fitness stuff, but I think it's just the fact that you only get one workout for almost $50 that's holding me back. Knowing the length of my attention span, I'm skeptical that it's worth it for me.

Hi ladies,
Well I hit Koh'ls early this morning but the line to check out was wrapped all around the store. I bagged that, came home and got some coffee and headed to Target for their 6am opening. Well somehow I managed to leave my purse at home and had to come back to get it. I did buy a bunch of stuff at Target and am off to a great start.
I bought some stainless cookware for us. Our pots and pans are in terrible shape and DH said just get some new stuff and we both agree on stainless. I also need a new printer but didn't find one that I wanted. I'll keep looking though.
I've been up since 4 and need a nap before I can even consider working out. I do have kb's on my list thanks to you ladies!!!
Wendy & Jen-guess it's kb day Good Job getting that out of the way already!
Sunny-I should've been working out at 6am, but I was shopping instead. You're all making me feel guilty about not working out. Maybe after my nap.

UGH. I just can't find the energy to do a kb work out today. I think I'm gonna go for some straight cardio instead and perhaps I'll feel good enough to kick out a kb work out tmrw...
So now the question is....pull out a dvd or go to the gym!?
Jen: I don't know if Anthony's work outs will be worth it to you or not. I don't have Providence, Newport or Firepower. I have the Kettlebell Ways which are good but slightly cheaper then his others. Ofcourse I've never heard anyone say that they weren't worth the money so perhaps you should put Providence or KBW on your Christmas list. That's a great way to find out if they are worth it without actually spending the money!
Diana: As you can see above, I didn't get any work out out of the way yet. I woke up feeling a little crummy but thought it would pass. I guess it has but now I just feel tired. No energy for the bells at all. ACK. Sorry about your shopping mishaps this morning but I'm glad you scored some good deals despite them.
Sunny: Yikes, a 6am class. Better you then me! LOL Glad you had a great holiday!

Heh heh...Guess what? After all that whinin' I ended up doing KBW 2 anyway! Good work out. I decided to not pick up my 20# kb at all since I'm not feelin' 100%. I definately could have used it in some places though so I definately will include it next time I do this work out. There is a 2nd disc that has a "manmaker" work out on it. It's supposed to be short but tough. I'm tempted to try that too now! See what happens when I FINALLY get goin'? I just don't wanna stop! LOLOL

Hey girls-just back from Kohl's where I stood in line for 2 hours ACCCKKK. I'm done for the day. I'm going to go veg for a bit and watch some soaps. I'll have to go pick up DS from grandma's since he spent the night with her.
This weekend we will be busy cleaning out the basement and getting the Christmas decorations up.
Wendy-so you got that workout in after all-way to go!
