One of my friends Aunts passed away last weekend, so the mass is today. Not sure how long it will last, and when I'll get home.

Tomorrow is an all day meeting, and since I'm the treasurer I have to be there, so I'm going to be gone all day -- Maybe I'll be able to exercise before I go. Not sure? So tomorrow is not worse because of what I have to do, but becuz it's all day.

Oh well, catch you all later!

Hi Ladies. Well, today I plan to hit the elliptical come Hades or high water. I have one meeting today so my afternoon is scott free. Then, as this is Friday, lil DS and I will be going swimming. Big DS won't be going, as he is at my DPs with an athsma flareup. I think the vineyard yesterday is to blame. I made him take all his meds before going, but I guess it got to him anyway. Ah well...

Star - too funny about the downward dog. I laughed when I read that and thought, yeah riiight!

WTG, Carmen!

just did 30 min interval training -- dripping. . . I guess I should replace some of this water?

Chklithunder 09-26-2005 03:37 PM

AwRIGHT!!!!! :cp: :cp: Way to go! I see your slider moving too BTW. That is really great. What types of exercises does the interval training include?

textjewel 09-26-2005 04:25 PM

It's one of the Kathy Smith tapes I own; basically aerobic, but there are higher speed, or more intense intervals - so a little jumping, bigger moves, etc. . .at least I'm getting the choreography down, and I'm *finally* getting to the point where I can actually get my body off the floor, making it a little higher impact.

Hi all,

i got my first Dvd's this weekend, and i have to say that I like the Carmen Electra striptease one (i will deny i ever said that if anyone repeats it:))

But I got a sweat in and it did a lot of stretching and i felt it the next morning, so i will definatly keep up with that one. Only problem is that the disk scratched and I couldn't finish the whole thing :(

Chklithunder 09-27-2005 03:07 PM

Shennie - I want to try that Carmen Electra tape. I understand its getting mixed reviews but it may be worth a try. Maybe I'll rent it.

Today - 45 mins of yoga:cp:. It was tough, and I sweat a couple of buckets.

Star 09-28-2005 01:11 PM

Tuesday - Gym one hour cardio....
Today physical - 2 hours....lol - result - good.....

Star 09-29-2005 09:41 AM

Morning chicks....
 
last night - :dancer: (Jazzercise) one hour, enjoying it more, giving me more flexibility. Have noticed they put several pilates movements in.

This AM - Gym - :strong: 45 minutes :tread: 15 minutes :cheer:

Yesterday had complete physical exam. Dr R is very through. She is very pleased with my workout schedule. She said that weight training has been underestimated (for women) for years. The combo of weight and cardio is the most effective way to achieve results. I also noticed for the first time, I'm smaller than her and for some reason (fat girl syndrome :?: ) that made me feel :cb:

Because of my workout schedule I don't need a stress test. Will have a bone density test. Which, the last one I had came out great and she said that the best thing women can do for our bones is lift weights :wl:

Just hit me you chicks over here don't need this info, it's the girls that don't visit us here at the exercise yard. I'm gonna double post this...... ;)

Chklithunder 09-29-2005 10:13 AM

Hi Ladies.

For some reason I've been extremely tired for the past few days. Its as though all week my energy has been siphoned from me. I haven't eaten anything out of the norm, the only change I've really made is that I've started working out. Could it be that I need to eat different types of foods to boost my energy? Its also starting to get cool outside. Do you think the weather could be the culprit?

Signed,
Concerned In Cleveland

Let's do the Friday Dance :cb:

Last night - :dancer: - one hour. Chicks - this jazzercise is starting to kick my butt. I guess it becuz with this type of exercise all the movement comes from our muscles alone, no motors, no belts - just muscle. Anyhow today and this isn't the first time, I'm really sore.... :cp:

This morning - Gym - :tread: -one hour- :cheer:

buttonsinabox 09-30-2005 04:15 PM

vibrantecho 09-30-2005 07:31 PM

Chklithunder 10-03-2005 03:33 PM

Elliptical trainer today - 35 minutes/ 375 cals. Yes!!!

They have 2 different brands of ellipticals at the fitness center. I tried a different one today and it was BRUTAL! I almost quit a few times but I stuck it out and completed the program. That was a victory in itself, that I didn't give up becuz I sure wanted to! :o

Star 10-03-2005 03:44 PM

Trying to think if I want to go to Jazzercise tonight.....Actually I have to drink some stuff tonight for my Cat Scan tomorrow. I could feel sorry for myself and say I just need to take it easy and drink the stuff and watch tv OR I could be tough and go to Jazzercise (only 1 hour) and then come home, drink the stuff and watch tv....hum....

buttonsinabox 10-04-2005 11:36 AM

Yoga today - it seemed easier so that's good. I can feel the muscles in my arms will be sore tomorrow too. No one-legged balancing acts so that was great!
