Today was day 2 of week 3....I did more of the cardio stuff (jumping jacks & butt kicks) this time - can't say I lasted the whole minute...gotta work on that. This time I went to the women's only gym. It's comfier there....but really crowded on weekdays. Whew, I'm ready for a rest day. Washed the car and walked the dog for 40 minutes, too.

Still keeping up on my running as I am still at the beginning of Jillian's book. I don't get much time to read with a almost 4 year old in the house. Anyway, I ran around 5K with my running club this morning

Hey, everyone!

I did week 4, day 1 today. I restarted this week. I really pushed myself and did a total of one hour.

I'm glad to see others moving and grooving here. Makes me happy.

Hi.
I did (re-did) week 1 day 1 since I was sick all last week. So far so good. I also did 30 minutes of treadmill (incline 4.5, speed 3.7) but didn't want to over do my first day back. Still coughing/hacking to get rid of a tickle, but I wasn't out of breath.

Week 4, Day 2 of Jillian's program. 40 minutes of that was just circuit training, which was odd, but I took longer cardio breaks to keep HR up so that may be why. Total was 63 minutes.

Default ? for Jillian Girls

Hi Jillian Girls-

Ok i am on week 2 day 2. But i just found out that my gym will be closed next thrusday and friday. Would it be bad instead of moving next week on to week 3 that i just did week 2 over again. I mean alot of week 1 and 2 i could do at home, except for a couple the exercises.

Any input?

I am really enjoying the program and want to stick with it. And like others said this week is a lot easier and i am not so sore like last week. This is going to pay off

Hi Blondevt.....

Alot of us are repeating a previous week for a variety of reasons. Thats too bad about your gym. I would re-do what you can do at home and not waste the time off.

Week 2 day 2 re-do......I also did 30 minutes of the treadmill. (incline5,speed 3.7) Boy am I sore today......my butt is so tender from doing those lunges.

no exercise for me so far this week.

i had monday off due to a headache and just slept at home for most of the day. tuesday went to work initally and then went home and slept again. went to see the chiropractor who adjusted me and i felt better. had to take my puppy to the vet who has now been diagnosed with a luxating patella (loose knee joint) which may require surgery. this is only a small portion of what is going on in my life. i truly and honestly feel that the universe is against me.

i still have a bit of a headache today, but will wait out the day and see how i go and hopefully get some exercise in tonight. it should be my rest day but will do day 1 of the circuit and some yoga tonight. i think the yoga will help me release all of this stress in my life - can't hurt to try.

need a hug guys
