Greetings all!

Yesterday I couldn't stop watching the (recording of) mens gymnastics, so I walked for an hour. Also went to yoga and weights class. Looks like more walking today so I can finish that tape. I might go over to the gym as well and do some elliptical.

My gym has come up with the perfect class workout: 9:30 strength, 10:30 kickboxing, 11:30 yoga. I can't wait to try it, though I'm going to skip kickboxing since it's contact and go do the elliptical. I'm teaching this Saturday, but next Sat I'll try the yoga, then the following do strength as well. If they only offered this everyday! I dream of a gym that offers classes all day long. If I could design a gym...

Happy Workouts!

    I got a quick walk in after lunch yesterday, went to my aerobics class last night, and did my pushups before bed. The aerobics instructor also threw some upper body weight work in at the end of the class, so my arms were tired doing those pushups!

    Today I managed to drag my butt out of bed to the gym to hit the elliptical BEFORE work, which I never do. But I am busy tonight and won't get another chance to work out. Maybe I can squeeze in another walk after lunch today.

    I put a weekly chart up on my fridge so I can check things off every day. It's kinda inspiring to see those little check marks filling the page. Happy workouts!

    Today I'm back at the gym for weights and some cardio. I was going to try for spinning this pm, but I think I may go earlier and do the elliptical instead. (these one-on-one spin classes are frankly killing me. . .they just seem sort of . . .awkward).

    Happy workouts to all!:flowerforyou:

    Good afternoon. I did Turbo Jam again. I like it. It goes by quickly and I don't feel too bad if I can't get anything else in for the day. Like today-six little ones here so there isn't even a chance for a walk. Making dinner tonight for my son and his wife and son. She is the one expecting and baby is due in 3 weeks!

    Good afternoon!

    Yesterday I did Shred Level 2, and today I plan to take a long walk.

    Ok, I finally have to ask....What does SBF stand for? I have thought of all sorts of things, some funny, some naughty and some that just don't make sense, I am just curious.

    Hi All! Long time no post :cry:

    Things are crazy but good. I'm working out when I can, but life on the road is tough! I'm home for two more days then off to New York on Saturday. Will keep checking in when I can. Glad to hear everyone is fighting the good fight!

    Vivia -- one on one spinning classes...definitely awkward LOL.

    Today:
    ~ Lifted weights (back and bi)
    ~ 40 minutes cardio (stair stepper and elliptical -- I was SO tired! Must be from taking a few weeks off)
    ~ Keep within my calories
    ~ Take my vitamins
    ~ Make a smoothie to bring to my late afternoon meeting so I'm not tempted to eat the junky snacks

    Good luck everyone!

    Wandering!

    I was thinking of you while I was on the road last week, and eating just terribly. Any remotely healthy stuff you manage to do or eat on the road now makes you my personal hero.:flowerforyou:

    Late check in! I'm pooped! We walked in Sea World for several hours, I did 40 full pushups for the day and then we went bowling tonight! Whew! Didn't do well on my eating. Kind of anxious to get back to my routine. Gotta figure out how many calories I should be eating.
    Tomorrow is a road trip so I don't know what I will get done. Have a good Friday!

    Hey Wandering! I just saw an ad for a new show from "the producers of Deadliest Catch" and thought of you. Nice to see you. It sounds like you are doing great! :flowerforyou:

    Vivia - definitely awkward. :embarassed: I almost had a one-on-one aerobics class last week and I wasn't sure if I take it! Fortunately one other person showed up after ten minutes.
