Deb - Hi!

Mon and Tues - 20 Minute workout
Tonight - combat or fire 45. Not sure yet!!

Take care ladies :).

Laura I am enjoying the Tae Bo rotation. I have gotten to where I prefer actual rotations. I don't like to figure things out and on my own I would stick with cardio. I have a couple new programs that I need to get to this coming year.

Hi! Can I join in?
I'm just transitioning to working out at home instead of going to my beloved Zumba class :'(

Today it was Doonya: Beginner Breakdown.

Not really a great workout, tbh.

I'm renting videos via amazon, and this one is actually a part of a three disc set, so it was an awful workout as a standalone, but as instructional video, it was the best I've seen ever.
I still have a day and a half on the rental, but I don't know that I'll repeat it. I may move on to Jillian Michaels or Tracy Anderson tomorrow.

Workout check-in!
Thurs - fat burning workout

Diana, I hear you! I'm also much more inclined to do only cardio but Inhave to lift more!!

:welcome: Izzyboommama!!!!

Measly 2 pounds this week....at least is two pounds gone forever! I'm hoping that with lifting 2-3 times per week it will increase muscle and reduce fat. I feel so different this week and my clothes are significantly bigger that I was expecting 4 pounds again. Oh well!

Teacher and Deb : Hi! :wave:
