My 2011 52 7/7 challenge!!

4/7 1 mile with Leslie. I fell and re-hurt my already sore hip. :sad: To many setbacks but I press on.

I'm so sorry to read you have re-injured self. Take it easy so it doesn't get worse. Hope you feel better soon.

Good afternoon all!

4/7 W2 I'm logging in 2.17 treadmill miles, 4+ hours of yard work, mostly cleaning and raking up leaves for my compost pile .

4/7 today with Week 6 Day 2 of C25K plus extra 5 min of running. Total mileage 3.2, calories burned 450. LOVE starting the day off with a workout--I'm so energetic for the rest of the day and I don't have my workout looming over my head all day at work!! Thanks to everyone on here--you guys are and this thread are definitely a motivation to get my butt out of bed every morning at 5:15!!

Good job Keep motivating us!!

4/7: Turbo Fire/Fire 45 (45 minutes) + 20 minutes of Ab Lab

Ivy - so sorry to hear of the re-injury. Please take care!

4/7 with cleaning house and 30 minute elliptical with Jillian Michaels.

4/7 today with Turbo Jam Cardio Party Mix 2.

This thread is the happening spot. So much going on. I'm going to try to hit a few without going on forever.

Waana_be_fit: isn't ot a great feeling to get the workout done early. And you continue to burn calories throughout the day. Way to rock it!

Pinbotchick: It does feel like any other way to start the new year.

Biloxbelle: Thanks for the info. I'm going to look into that. I definitely like the P90x concept, just wait a faster pace. BTW, how long are each workout? I can easily workout 1hr, but that also includes my cardio.

Sarah: Not sure what croupy baby is (means), but getting any workout is so much better than doing nothing. Glad you were able to get a good workout this morning.

Runningneo: The running man. While I was on the treadmill, I was thinking about your miles as my motivation, of course I didn't come completely close to your whole workout, but I got some miles in.

Missou: You definitely did get a whole body workout. Sounds like a good mix and nice workout.

Well, it's 8 so I'm gonna watch biggest loser. But to quickly post my day, I was excited to go to work, but the big task was postponed to Friday, so now I get to plan more for the board. Then the base closed for tomorrow anticipating the snow. I completed Turbo Jam and AB Jam this morning, then ran 4.1 miles on the treadmill and worked legs at the gym after work. Came home and grilled me chicken and veggies. I'm so ready to relax with my cup of tea. Everyone have a great evening and be safe to those who are affected by the weather.

I forgot: 4/7

4/7 - 1 hour of workout dvd's.

I completed the Supercharged Sculpting dvd, which is 35 minutes of cardio and strength training together. I felt like I could easily do more when I was done, so I followed that with another cardio and strength training "express" 25 minute workout. The second one was one that I hadn't done before, and it was faster paced than the first and had some new moves that I hadn't seen before, so that was a little more enjoyable for me.

We have leaves here that I could be raking, but I despise raking leaves... LOL!!

And for those of you working out first thing in the morning... I've never, ever been able to do it. I have tried, but I'm so sluggish in the morning. I'm dependent on my coffee to get me going, and when I have tried working out in the morning it has only made me crabby for the rest of the day!!

Biloxbelle: Thanks for the info. I'm going to look into that. I definitely like the P90x concept, just wait a faster pace. BTW, how long are each workout? I can easily workout 1hr, but that also includes my cardio.

Each workout varies in length. The 1 really good thing about STS is that the workouts are chaptered. SO you can skip around, cut the workouts short, whatever works for you.

5/7 with Couch to 5K Week 6 Day 2. Will also be doing Turbo Sculpt tonight after work.

runningneo - that's funny about that song! I was doing my run this morning and got a little chuckle too cause my ipod shuffle thought it would be amusing to have me run to Disturbed's 'Pain Redefined' :laugh:

Have a great day everyone!!

Missou: They are going to replace wii fit? I can't wait to see what it will be. I haven't played mine for a while but loved it, now use Gold's gym now. Thought Tina Turner did Proud Mary, Cher do a remake?

Satojekabe: Isn't it wonderful when you workout and still fill charged to do another? I have those days sometimes too. It used to be hard for me workout in the mornings too, then it got to the point when I didn't my day seemed to drag forever. Then once returning to the states, I had to workout in the evenings and that took some getting used to also. Now, I'm able to get both morning and night in. Lovin' it! Workout when you feel it is best for you.

Choco: You wow'd your company. Now, they expect that! Your a hard charger, you'll still be able to knock it out, even with tight deadlines. Thanks, I'm trying to make this a habit while hubby is gone, keeps me from being bored and spending money too. Luckily, he was to be to work before I do, so I think I can keep my morning workouts up, so while he's getting ready, I'm working out, then he's out the door when I get ready. I have about 2 more weeks to perfect this method.

Biloxbelle: I'm w/ Choco, I'm definitely going to have to check that out. Thanks again.

Runningneo: Incline running is a nice. If we chose to run our PRT on the treadmile, we have to run our 1.5 mile at 1% incline. Often I run at that incline to keep it up, it is a difference.

Meanness: Great workout! Tell me how Turbo Sculpt is, never done it yet.

5/7: My morning starting off with shoveling, a little over 1 hour, burned 1083 cals! I still have to go out and do it again later. Talking about songs, Bruno Mars has this song, The Lazy Song, talking about he just wanna stay at home and do nothing. All I could think, "Yeah Right!" as I was tossing snow in the driveway. Great song, just ironic at the time. I still think I will press play this evening and get my TJ Cardio Party on this evening. Have a great Wednesday everyone!

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me.......Today I turned 38 and I feel GREAT! The State of GA is slowly improving and I believe will be back to normal by the weekend. There was a 2 hour work delay so was able to sleep in just a little bit longer. I got my birthday started in the right direction by completing my workout and then eating a nice hearty bowl of oatmeal w/a banana.

Today I completed the Push Circuit 2 and Recharge dvds from the Chalean Extreme program and then jumped rope for 5 minutes so I good get in a full hour workout.

Chocolickkyss: 5/7

Running: I believe your tally for this week is also 5/7 b/c you posted 4/7 yesterday. Just want you to earn that point this week. What's the deal w/the calves and quads today? Does that happen often and what do you usually do to get through the rest of your run w/your legs are being difficult?

Meanness: Love your committment to the c25k program. Not sure if you answered this already but are you preparing for a race?

Not training for a race but thought about doing the Flying Pig later this year...I believe they have a 5k 10k 1/2 and full marathon.

Happy Birthday!!

Meanness: Great workout! Tell me how Turbo Sculpt is, never done it yet.

I am doing the Turbo Sculpt 3 days per week on the evenings that I do Couch 2 5K in the mornings. I love the Turbo Jam program. I am doing C25K and turbo jam workouts for the month of January to get used to working out everyday. Beginning Jan 30th I'm going to switch to P90X and see if I can complete the 90 days. Being accountable to this group and committing to work out everyday should keep me on track. I also plan to continue the running 3 mornings per week.

5/7 40 minutes of Turbo Jam Turbo Sculpt

Happy birthday Choco!!!

I'm 5/7 with 30 min of low impact aerobics.
