Turbo Jammers 1/12-1/18

Do you ever have days of complete uncoordination??

yep - every single day of my life! :laugh:

I was *just* getting ready to start the new thread, Lyn! Thank you!

Something crazy came over me & I did AbJam, Fat Blaster & Turbo Sculpt during nap time. I still need to do the 20 min. with hubby tonight & get my pushups in. I think someone slipped something into my water today. LOL NUTS!

Deedun - the Shred isn't a TJ workout. Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred. I've heard good things, but I'm skeptical b/c it isn't TJ. LOL

Hi, Heather! Are you joining us? :flowerforyou:

Oh, geeze. I don't know how many cals I burned! I should look that up, huh? LOL I'm really bad about forgetting these things lately. I don't have a HRM so I just use the estimate on the website.

I put the kids down for a nap & started working out right away. My oldest was awake for most of TS & my middle son woke up at the end, but he's still in a crib so I kept him in baby jail until I was done.

Just talked to my husband & I guess I'm going sledding tonight, too. Yay. :indifferent:

Well, Tabitha is my best napper. She only takes one a day, but that one usually lasts about 2-3 hours. Micah was taking up to 2.5 hour naps, but the past week he's decided that he doesn't need to nap at all. Luckily, as I said, he's still in baby jail so I give him a couple books & he has relaxation time at least. Zeke is questionable. Sometimes an hour, sometimes 3 hours if I'm REALLY lucky. Today, the boys went down & were very loud for about half an hour, but stayed in their room (while I did AbJam), then Zeke fell asleep (and I did Fat Blaster), Micah never fell asleep & woke up Zeke as soon as I started Turbo Sculpt. I literally put them down, ran out of their room & hit play so I didn't waste any time today. Got done with one, switched dvds & kept on moving. The good thing with Zeke right now, though is even if he's awake while I'm exercising (like today), I can get him to sit at the table next to the living room & play with play-doh or watch a movie on my laptop. Today he "lifted weights" with me during Turbo Sculpt. I told him to pretend Beanie Babies were weights & he kept up with me pretty well....enough for a 3 yo. LOL Oh! Sometimes when I do multiple workouts in one day, I will do one in the morning before the younger 2 are awake and then another during nap time. I squeeze them in when I can. And there's my novel of my workouts.

Micah was that way once he was able to start rolling over as a baby. I finally gave in & just started him out on his belly. Starting there seemed to help keep him asleep longer. Of all the issues I've had with my kids, sleep is #1 at the top of my annoyance list. It's always an adventure. :grumble:

Hi! I just joined today. I have the TJ maximum results package. What do ya'll put in your exercise to record it? I can't get anything to pull up.

I need motivation to exercise!

Oh, my name is Christy by the way. I have a 6 year old, 4 year old, (at school right now) and a 13 month old walking around saying mama mama mama mama to everything. lol..

Good Morning Jammers,
Still waiting for my DVDS but really excited to read all of the progress you all are making. I can't wait to get mine. I forced myself to get out of bed at 4:15 this morning to do 30 min cardio overdrive (the firm, - cardio w/ weights) according to the chart that 239 calories! woo hoo! anything over that is extra for the day. it always feels good to get it done in the beginning of the day - that way it's done and if there is energy/time later I can fit another work out in.
Hope everyone has a good day, stays their course with their eating plan and keeps moving.

:bigsmile:

Long time owner...first time jammer. LOL!

I've been on mfp for a week, now, totally behaving myself with calories...still need to work on getting the healthy stuff in me...but it's a start.

Anyhow...I GAINED two pounds! WTH? Looks like it's time to break out the Turbo Jam DVDs that I ordered and never (that's right, never) opened. Wish me luck! I'm doing one tonight when I get home! WOOT WOOT!

Hello

Just did TJ fat blaster only burned 179 calories. I just can't seem to burn any calories with these workouts.

Good Morning Jammers,
overslept this morning and was only able to get in 20 minutes of pilates this morning but at least it better that not doing anything!! Trying my best to stay on track!! Just checked my inbox and got confirmation email that my TJ Max (+ gloves!) is on the way !! Woo Hoo, I am so ecited!! Am going to get in at least 1 10 minute trainer on lunch and i scheduled myself 1 hour of hard core fusion after work when I get home. i put myself on my "to do " list ~ learning as we go. Much more conscious of my food since I have been using the food diary here too and staying well within my requirements.
just wanted to check in - take care guys and make it a great day :happy:

Forgot to check in today OOPS :laugh:

I did 20 minute and the Shred.

Tara, after doing TJ as long as I have, I can't stand the Shred....the workout is great but Jillian gets on my nerves the music doesn't flow with the workout and I HATE HATE HATE that you can't skip to the dvd menu and start the workout. I lose 5 minutes just waiting to get thru all the crap at the beginning. GRRRRRRRR! I do like the workout, so I've made myself a workout playlist for my MP3 player and I'm gonna try to time it with the workout so it's funnier.

Hope everyone is working their butts off!!

Thank you for saying that Lyn, b/c I've been feeling like I should go get Jillian's Shred for some reason, but I'm such a TJ addict that I was afraid I'd have the same feelings. I shall save my $9. :bigsmile:

Deedun - LOL You'll work up to it, I promise. It can be daunting at first, but once you get the choreography down, you'll be kicking butt & taking names! You can do it! It takes practice, so give yourself a few times to get it down.

So I just got done with AbJam...thanks again Marla (every time I do ab work, I'm thinking of you LOL), and FB. Gonna go try to TS a bit before the troops wake up.

Oh, and ABS! You're back! I hope your classes aren't too brutal!

Welcome to the TJ group, dragonfly! I hope you enjoy it as much as we all do! :flowerforyou:

I just ordered the max results package...fingers crossed I like it!!!
