Turbo Jammers 5/25 - 5/31

Checking in with Punch, Kick & Jam (which kicks my *kitten*!!!) and Cardio Party.

Much success to all of us!!!!!:drinker:

Deedun thanks for starting the thread for this week and great job on CP2 - I so love that one!!

Juicy, You over achiever:laugh: I love PK & J too!! Never tried them back to back,however. You are amazing, WTG!!!!

I'm going to try PKJ tonight!

Hey All,
Just checkin in before dinner and off to do 20min TJ before things get too crazy - fish can bake in the oven while doing the w/o I just have to pop in and check on it right after the turbo, LOL!! I've got a little system going - don't even have to stop the dvd player:laugh:
Ronks- Glad your back safe and sound and deeply sorry for you loss . Hope you and the family are ok - it's nice to get back to your routine:flowerforyou:

Deedun - hey there! Ever since I broke my gloves that came wit hmy set I've been using these e1lb wrist weights I got at walmart - they are awesome! Box sez can be used for walking or running so why not TJ. Just alittle heavier and a whole lot cheaper (6 buck for the set) and the velcro is more durable which is a plus for me. I was grateful to find them b/c you are so right - the work outs are totally different w/ the weights. I wear them all the time, except for ab jam.

Kinda lite on the boards tonight ~ where is everybody??

Take care all ~ off to jam

Hi Everyone.

Dara thanks for starting the thread again this week. I'm so happy to see everyone still Jammin their little hearts out! I have started jogging and it's replaced my TJ time. I also have gotten very busy with work and don't have near as much free time to spend on my favorite addictions MFP and TJ.

I'm actually hoping to get in TJ today. I haven't done it in days and I miss it very much. Jogging is a new experience for me. I remember in High School we would have to run/jog in PE and I would jog for about 2 secs and then walk the rest of the way. In college I took a PE class and on the first day the group decided they wanted to run/jog for the entire class...I dropped out of the run and the class. Right now I'm only jogging one mile (in 12 mins, not too bad) and then I walk the mile home. I'm hoping to build endurance and be able to make it to the mile point without feeling like I'm going to pass out....then I will add a 1/4 mile until I can jog the full 2 miles. With the heat coming I need to either figure out how to get up really early or jog very late.

Did anyone order the Turbo Kick workouts that Chalene now offers? I've been waiting for my first paycheck to order them. But yesterday I got in a car accident and damaged my car pretty bad so there goes my paycheck I'm fine, it was just a fender bender but I hit a SUV with a trailer hitch and the hitch went right thru my bumper.

Anywhoooo Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and keep on Jammin!

Checking with my Turbo so far:

Monday: Kickin Core; portion of Shaun T's Rockin Body just for fun!
Tuesday: CP3
Wednesday: Booty Sculpt & Abs, CP Remix

I got my DVD's yesterday! Woohoo :happy: I immediately opened the box and looked through all my stuff as well as took before pictures and my measurements. Seeing the pictures was actually kind of shocking because I am at my lowest weight ever and I feel so good but I see that there is still a long way to go!!! :ohwell:

So I did the learn and burn last night..was funny with my 18 month old trying to hang on to my legs..every time i would move she would LAUGH like we were playing the best game ever...haha

Then I did the "burn" again this morning at 4:15 am! I really like it so far. I am SO UNCOORDINATED but i have got the moves down surprisingly quickly!

The only thing is my knees felt a little uncomfortable. Did anyone else experience this when they first started? I am in perfect health and never have had any knee or joint problems! im hoping that once my legs get stronger this wont be an issue.

but overall, i LOVE IT! I will post my "pre" stats tonight when I get home!

E

Sometime I wonder if I'm addicted:ohwell: LOL

Drevans Mom - sorry about your ankle!! hopefully it will be fine after a little rest ..

So here are my pre-turbo jam stats. I have been eating really well for a while so i lost a lot of weight just by doing that.

Weight: 138.8
Chest: 37.5"
Arms: 11.5"
Waist: 30"
Hips: 38"
Thigh: 22"

I did the 20 minute workout this morning and it was fun! it is challenging, but the time flies by so fast and i couldnt believe i was actually enjoying it and not counting the seconds till the end of it! So happy :happy: :bigsmile: my knees were fine today, my back is sore and my legs are sore. i am going to do the ab jam tonight so i can start feeling it in my belly!

Good job on eating right and working out! The first couple times of ab jam is really tough... especially the part on the ground but just keep at it and you'll build up to it! :flowerforyou:

Great job Amber! 3 workouts, wow!! :drinker:

Great job today ladies! :drinker: I'm checking in today with CP2 and Extreme Abs (Chalean Extreme). Have a great evening everyone!

Amber, try not to let that number get you down...I know it's easier said than done, but my experience with those last few pounds is that I wouldn't lose anything or even gain a pound or two over several weeks, and then suddenly I'd be down several pounds. Another thing I've noticed is that for me, first thing in the morning is not the best time to weigh myself...I think I retain water over night or something :laugh: I'm always 2 lbs lighter in the afternoon than in the morning! Weird! I've really come to realize that the mirror and the way my clothes fit are the best way to measure my progress, and you're doing a great job! :flowerforyou:

I'm checking in today with Push 1 and Extreme Abs.

Have a great Friday everyone!

so i am committing here for all to see that i am doing ab jam tonight! i am soo tired, i had school last night and didnt get to bed till 12, so i didnt work out this morning. :frown: so now i am accountable to you all to get those abs worked!

has anyone here tried shakeology by beachbody? like it? love it?

Happy happy friday my jammin friends!

:bigsmile:

Amber stick with it. The scale isnt always nice but your clothes are telling you a better story! I feel your pain the scale wasnt nice to me this week either but I had it coming
I went to the doc today. no torn ligament or tendons and no fractures. He just said to take it easy and listen to my body. If it hurts don't do it Probably take the rest of the weekend off and then ease back in on Monday. I miss my TJ and my jogging I was making such great progress and now I've been set back. Gotta get to it!

Have a great weekend all!
