I got through plyo and loved it in the midst........but this morning I am crippled and barely able to get outta bed!!! But moving on to todays exercise.....later!!!
Awesome! glad to hear you are getting it done, don't forget to stretch, also if i feel like i'm hurting too much I ice the area and that usually helps.
You can check a few other topics for a few tips to help make the journey a little easier.
When you said you aren't doing well with eating, what is it that you are having trouble with?0 -
CHM2616- you are a braver woman than me, getting up so early.:flowerforyou: I teach a combined grade 1/2 this past year and am moving up with my class [le sigh] into a 2/3 for the next year. I hear a few kids might be moving, so that will change the dynamics of the class, hopefully for the better. I was so drained when I came home at least 3 days out of 5, that I just wanted to curl up on the couch, but looking at my calendar with my workouts scheduled kept me going. I had to complete it, every day, or it would drive me crazy.
Mandycaden-just keep drinking and know that you don't have to compete with the people on the dvd for time. do what you can in the time you have. It's your form that is most important. so keep going! and for today....water water water and stretch a lot after your workout. you might even consider doing the XStretch, or rolling out your muscles a bit, with a tennis ball or foal roller, heck, even a rolling pin will work. google myofascial muscle release or self-myofascial release. you can see some youtube showing different muscle groups that get too tight. But for DOMS pain, water and movement help the best.
Today was cardio for me: and since I did cardioX yesterday, I did RushFit's Fight workout! lots of punching and kicking and now it's time to do some yard clean up and walk the dog.0 -
Week 2, Day 3: Shoulders and Arms + Ab Ripper X Done!! Still need to teach a kickboxing class this evening.. Burning up the calories and feeling good!0

Just put the amount you want on the plate no 2nds. Somethimes I log what i'm about to eat before I eat it to see if it's too much or not. That way I can eliminate or add.0 -
Chest Shoulders Triceps and ARX today. used some 15lb dumbbells on some of the moves...now my arms are shakey
later: cardio0 -
Week 2 Day4. Played tennis this morning while the sun shone!!
Did Yoga X this afternoon.Felt I was better at the moves so I believe I am getting stronger
How did it go for you all today?0 -
Taught a 30 minute Tabata class this morning.. Hoping to fit in Yoga X this evening.. Geeze.. I don't like that it is 90 minutes long!!0
-
Yes Yoga is realllly long! geesh and I kept falling over today
Anyways Yoga done and jogging done!0 -
Ok, Yoga Done! Damn that Crane is hard!! I can't believe I did Yoga for 90 minutes.. My husband kept walking through the room and saying "aren't you done yet?"... Tell me about it.. I like Yoga, but I am glad I only have to do it once a week.. :0) Good night from California!0
-
Week 2 D5 Back and legs and ABX. Burned 306 cals.
No way can I do the crane. I just cant get the power in my arms, or core!!! or legs !!!.My but* is too big to lift in the air at the moment:grumble:0 -
CardioX done! yoga is my least fave, I think. I'm not sure if it's because its so long, or that it's so slow, but I have to remember to slow down and do the yoga and stretches because they are good for me, even though I find them slow.0
-
Love yoga but think 90 mins is a lot now I think I have Kenpo X which I really dont like, I don't like when they start yelling "Hep Hep Hep Hep" hahaha I roll my eyes at that lol0
-
LOL, Shea, me too! I think I'll give yoga a go tonight after the kid's bath and bed.0
-
ARRRRRRRGnghhhhhhhhhhhhhh! YogaX done! I got to my big toes for crane, managed not to kill myself during the half moons, and shook like crazy during the abs, and still managed a 414 cal burn! :laugh: not quite love, but I like it better. I still think it's too long and the first part, with all the savasanas(?sp) and warriors0
-
I get to the point of "If I have to do one more downward dog, I'm gonna puke"!!! Anyways, ran 2.5 miles today in muggy weather, finished legs/shoulders and Ab ripper X.. Does Ab ripper X hurt your lower back? I can never complete the 25 of the bicycles or froggies because my lower back starts to hurt.. Ugg.. I hope it gets better.. I have to make myself finish those 16 minutes!0
-
Just finished Kenpo X .The only good thing about this is the cool down:blushing: .I am so uncordinated I spend too much time trying to get the moves right that my HR goes down.I'd prefer a run or cycle to this. Only burned 309 cals and definitly was not in my zone.:ohwell:
mammacano: As for Ab ripper X. I just wait for the day when I dont have to pause and restart the dvd.
Day 90 maybe ?
_SASX_ Congrats on the mini Crane et al....I strive to get there one day.0 -
Finished Kenpo X and loved it!!! Fizzy123: The more you do it, the better you will get at it.. It is such a great upper body workout.. Try adding weighted gloves to the first series of punches (mine came with turbo jam from Beachbody.com).. It will help bring your calorie burn up.. :0)0
-
Thanks for the tip. I'll persevere Must get the gloves and hope I don't knock myself out!!! 0
-
Yay! Glad everyone is working hard. I am about to go do my Kenpo X... let you know how it goes

Fizzy, I also look at where he is punching...instead of jab cross hook uppercut, think nose nose cheek jaw...seems to work for my mom when she works out with me. If she knows what part she is punching, her coordination gets much better.
also wrist weights of 2# or 3# would work for weighted gloves if you don't have any of your own.
