    Finished stretch. Will be more enjoyable after losing more inches.

    Morning or Night? Just wondering at what time of day people usually exercise?

    Always morning for me. Most of the time it's because my daughter is more agreeable to me ignoring her for 25 mins then! Oh the joys of being a stay at home dad... ;)

    Cardio done this morning - definitely an easier time of it than either day last week. Wonder if I'll be able to say the same about Total Body Hell tomorrow?

    I stay home so I do it whenever I can, typically morning or during naptime.

    Cardio is done for today. I forgot about stretch yesterday so I might do that during nap time.

    I prefer evening, energy is higher as I'm more awake. But I've been doing mornings to see if my body can deal with early and get it done before the day starts. :) I am NOT a morning person.

    It's a fez. I wear a fez now.

    Fezzes are cool.

    I have to do this in the morning, I find I'm just not into it if I do it later in the day or I talk myself out of working out. For me, I roll out of bed, throw on my workout clothes, push play and by the time I'm half way through he work out I realize I'm awake and working out! ha ha! It makes me feel awake and more prepared to take on the day. If I have additional time at night I'll do a walking video or go out side for a walk. Do something extra.

    I'll be right beside you doing TBC (BLECH!!) My goal is to do more -not-so-modified-workouts. Good luck to you tomorrow! :-)

    I very much wish I could work out in the morning, but I have learned I won't stick with it. I have to do it immediately when I get home from work in the evening. I change from work clothes to workout clothes.

    I'm starting the 5-day jump start today with the hubby. Workouts fell by the wayside this past month with all the traveling and being sick. Time to pick it up again. I could use some friends for motivation and to help me to be accountable.

    Did cardio this morning, and nailed it! First time nailing it! It was still really hard for me though!

    OMG, whoever said Total Body Hell was entirely accurate. I physically cannot do any of those plank moves. I can't even do most of the modifiers. Good lord.

    I just got mine yesterday and started this morning so I'm late to the party! I was supposed to be doing this with a co-worker who had already purchased it but she's sort of flaking so I'm so glad to have found y'all! I knew I was out of shape but that cardio was brutal. I had to follow the modifier quite a bit. I know I'll get better!

    Oh wall pushups! Good idea. Whoever decided that on your knees pushup was the easiest level has obviously never seen my level of fitness. :wink:

    Total Body Circuit....oh my!! Those planks/shoulder taps. Today I decided I'm not going to do the modified version....I probably got 4 done to their how many...then push ups....I thought I can do these (been doing the modified version)...did a face plant on the first one and had to drop my knees to continue on. Never thought about doing wall pushups either. Good idea. I have very little Upper body strength!! But I keep trying to do the harder moves each time...still sux!! I have to do this video twice this week. I dread it!

    Yep, I am not a planker what so ever! and the modified ones were no better because my upper body strength is very slack. But we are doing it and trying and attempting so we should all be proud!!!

    Total Body Hell was marginally more tolerable yesterday, but I reckon that's just because I'm getting better at knowing what Shaun T's talking about!

    Speed 1.0 wasn't too bad today. Still got the coordination of a dog on a polished floor, but I'm getting there!
