The Firm Check In - Page 7 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Hi! I've been MIA for quite awhile. I've been doing other videos beside the Firm, but on Wednesday my Firm Express arrived. I'm doing one each day with a rest between cycles. So far I've done all of Emily's cycle. I really like these. They're so fast and fun.

I've been modifying some of the high impact, but I do try to get my feet off the floor for the 8 second bursts.

Today I'm starting the second cycle with Rebekah. I'll let you know how it goes.

Cathy, I love the Firm Express workouts. Even the ones with Rebekah, which seem to drive some people crazy (they don't like her WOOO all the time, but it doesn't bother me). I do one a week as an add on, because I have to be careful with high impact. ETA I walked the dog for 30 mins before the cold rain and wind started.

Sorry I've been MIA too. Last week was a crazy week for me and I didn't get my workouts in. This week is going to be better and I promise to check in every day.

Chrys I like Rebecca in Firm Express too. I also like her in Total Body Time Crunch. That's one of my favorite DVDs.

Cathy - There are times I do other DVDs but I still post 'em here.

Today I did Cardio Overdrive.

Have a great evening everyone.

Hi, all. I walked the dog for 30 mins and did Firm Vol. 2. I'm drenched in sweat! Now off to work in the garden!

Good evenig ladies,

No workout for me this evening. I'm dealing with withdrawl symptoms since I haven't had sugar in 2 days. I hope tomorrow is better. The good thing is that I havent been hungry.

Have a great evening everyone.

Today I did Advanced Cardio Blast and Super Cardio Sculpt. It was too hot to walk outside!

Hi Chrys,

You are doing an awesome job!!! I've not done much activity this week since it was my first week of no sugar/carbs. Starting today I will be back at it. I want to make sure I don't lose any of the muscle I've worked so hard to build. Keep up the great work!

GettinFit · 06-25-2011, 12:26 PM

I just completed Firm Express Cycle 2 Cardio. Whew!! I couldn't keep up with the bursts but by the time I finished, I was drenched. I need to do more of these workouts so that I can remember all the moves since they're so fast paced.

Did Low Impact Aerboics this a.m. Nice workout.

Question, does or has anyone done the hour long Lower body and/or Upper Body Sculpt? I don't like them near as much as the shorter Standing Legs & Upper Body DVDS. Just want your thoughts.

Thanks.

GettinFit · 06-26-2011, 06:54 PM

Gigi - I've not done those workouts. I have some of the DVDs but I just let those collect dust

I don't like the 1 hour workouts either.

Today I took a rest day and tomorrow I will be starting a 30 day Firm Express rotation. I am going to do the beginner rotation and I plan to include walking a few days a week too.

GettinFit · 06-27-2011, 10:41 PM

Checking in with Firm Express C1 Sculpt today. Day 1 of my 30 day rotation.

cdayley · 06-27-2011, 11:58 PM

Hi, all. I did Total Muscle Shaping, and one Zero in 10 segment. I also walked the dog for 30 mins.
