    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!

    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.

    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 warriors

    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!

    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.

    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)

    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.

    Guess I'm not the spatial type!!:smile:
