I get to clean house today. I'm so excited.

I hope to exercise, also. Probably UB weights. Maybe cardio.

Onederchic 08-14-2009 10:49 AM

I got about 10 minutes into my first cardio workout and my little doggy got sick on the sofa and required my attention so I am planning on getting it done up this afternoon.

Diva 08-14-2009 12:05 PM

Oh I hope your doggy is alright. :(

30 Minutes HIIT on the TM & 15 on the Elliptical. I was tired today. My neighbor wants to start going to the GYM with me so now I have some extra incentive & Accountability and that's always a good thing. I'll be less inclined to make up excuses not to go!
:D

aww chic, is your doggy ok??? Diva, what fun. Thanks echo.

today I might have to rest. I have been having what I thought was a period for a week, but it was just spotting. Now I am having heavier bleeding and cramps. Might put me in the bed.

Onederchic 08-14-2009 12:32 PM

Doggy seems to be okay now, thanks :D

Awesome Diva :cheer:

Feel better soon, Jennifer :hug::hug:

Great job everyone :cheer

I decided to take yesterday as my rest day as my legs were quite sore. They weren't too bad this morning though so I did 32 mins on the Stairmaster and finished up with some ab work.

Have a wonderful day everyone!!

patchworkpenguin 08-14-2009 02:08 PM

I pulled out an old DVD P90X Shoulders and Arms. I haven't done this workout in a year 7-08. My shoulders are mad at me now and I'm going to eat lunch!

Chic, I hope doggie is alright.

Narnia, Good job on the starimaster dispite the sore legs.

Jen, Sorry about the cramps, I hope you feel better soon.

Diva, I'd love to have someone exercise with me!

Echo 08-14-2009 03:07 PM

well done Diva :cheer:
well done Narnia :cheer2:

well done penguin!! :cheer3: i also got the p90x dvd set!! i'm going to start it next week. but i dont have resistance bands, and i dont have a pull up bar, nor am i going to get one. and i couldnt pull up anyways!! lol im going to adjust the exercises haha.

Onederchic 08-14-2009 03:17 PM

Way to go everyone!! :cheer2:

Apparently my bf is taking over as my "personal trainer" and has made a weight/strength routine for me to do. I will be working it in a bit..update to follow :o

patchworkpenguin 08-14-2009 04:33 PM

I did an add-on workout. I got Tamilee Webb's Cardio Blast {30min} from Netflix today. I didn't think it was a blast but was glad I gave it a try.

Chic, Yay on your BF helping you!

Echo, I did the X a few years ago. I followed the Lean rotation and tried for 16reps each exercise. I didn't like the Lean, you might want to stick with the Classic. I subbed other cardio because I thought a little Tony goes a long way. I didn't have a pullup bar then and used the bands. I was using the heaviest one I could for the pullup subs {black} but later learned that if you use a lighter band {green or red?} you get better range of motion and work more muscles. I never did Yoga X but loves X Stretch and Kempo X. Remember that you can take mini breaks during the exercises, they help out a lot!

Onederchic 08-14-2009 04:43 PM

Congrats Penguin! :cheer2:


I just finished 30 minutes free step with Wii Fit. A total of 3230 steps..now I don't know if that is good or bad but I know I am sweating. Next is the weight/strength routine. He wants me to use tens and not my comfy fives :o. Wish me luck!

Onederchic 08-14-2009 05:45 PM

I just finished the upper body routine he laid out for me. The tens are heavy *whimper* but I pushed through it :o

Echo 08-14-2009 06:24 PM

wow onderchic! you are on a roll! i'm so impressed by all the workouts you've been doing! you're working really really hard ! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

thanks Penguin for the feedback about the p90x! i really appreciate it!!
do you recommend a particular brand of resistance bands? and where do you put them ? i have this beam thing in the garden i could wrap it around i suppose.

well done penguin! :cheer3: :cheer3: :cheer3:
