Silly Phase One Observations

Completed phase one...here are some silly things I've noticed:

1. Anita kicks *kitten*. She did the "easy" versions of all the exercises in 30 Day Shred. She's definitely one of the ladies that I pay attention to during BR - she kicks higher, faster, etc, etc....even when she's not in the spotlight. And I love her little giggle.

2. Even though David doesn't look like he's got much between the ears (sorry David), he also kicks butt!

3. Omar is quite the hero. Period.

4. Mimi is so freaking cute. I love when Jillian asks her to get "dancier" than Natalie during Cardio 1. I totally follow her speedbag routine - so fun!

5. Mimi again - I love her version of "Good Mornings"!

6. Not sure of her name, but when Jillian asks who else can rock "fast feet" she gets REALLY into it! "UGH! UGH! I'M SHAKING IT!" Makes me crack up!

7. "All your life long!" Best quote ever. :)

8. Suicides just aren't that bad! Is it just me?

9. I can't do Running Man without peeing a little bit. Sorry. I've given birth, naturally, three times. TMI - but it happens! Thank you Always PantiLiners. :) (I can't believe I just wrote that!)

10. Hollow man sucks.

11. The Tree is not that hard for me either - I love it!

12. I know some of you are thinking...oh, just wait until Phase 2...and I can't wait!

Tell me some of YOUR silly observations from Phase 1!

:happy:

    Oh and also the hollow man is killer. I honestly feel like I am gonna throw up during it! My abs kill the next couple days after that one.

    I agree with all of your comments but I can DO hollow man, no problem!!

    And not sure if this applies to you, but my "girls" HATE running man.......and Amen to panty liners!!

    1) LOVE Mimi and Anita! I love that Natalie talks back to Jillian, too :)
    2) I love suicides! In Cardio 2 I do suicides instead of towel runs.
    3) I'm glad to be done with phase 1 mainly because of the "I'm shakin it!" girl.

    i get so annoyed with the "i'm shaking it" girl too. i think she is the same loud annoying one in phase 2, as well! i think anita is AWESOME... i like natalie too but sometimes she doesn't get as high or as quick as anita. suicides come back in workout 8 so don't fret! :) oh and in workout 9, you go from boat post to hollow man, then back to boat pose, then back to hollow man.... something to look forward to as jillian says ;)

    The "I'm shaking it" girl is a spotlight wanna-be, in my opinion...LOL!! It's like she's just sitting there waiting for Jillian to pick on her so she can show off. Cannot stand her!

    I totally LOVE Mimi, Natalie and Anita. One of my sons has a crush on Mimi and gets disappointed when she doesn't get a lot of camera face time, like in Workout 6.

    I thought I was the only who peed in my pants a little bit with some of the exercises!! There's an ab move in Workout 5 (I think, or it could be 6) and I cannot help peeing a tiny bit every single time. Can I blame it on carrying two sets of twins in a period of two years? They wreaked havoc on my bladder and it'll never be the same again!

    I'll let you blame anything on two sets of twins in two years.

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one that finds "shaking it" girl annoying. And you're so right about her being an attention-hog.
    And yes, I agree - you can blaim anything on 2 sets of twins in two years!

    I start Phase 2 today - can't wait to see what else is in store. Everything else you all listed here sounds like fun! :laugh:

    Phase 2 is great!! I feel so much stronger just after the first week!! Let us know how you like it!!

    Just a warning...the "shaking it" girl tries even harder to get Jillian's attention in workouts 5 and 6. I like that Jillian pretty much ignores her except for one time when she allows shaking it girl 15 seconds of fame.

    In either workout 5 or 6 the "I'm shakin it" girl starts to scream and grunt loudly when doing the upper cuts with the resistance band. My first thought was "here we go again."

    (ps- I think it's funny that none of us know her name)

    Thanks for this! And the videos - so funny!

    And it's workout 5 (just finished my first time!) where she grunts at us again doing the upper cuts! I instantly laughed (through my pain!) and thought of this thread! :wink:

    OMG !! you're reading my mind !! I can't stand that girl..She's such a show off. Exactly she's like waiting for Jillian to look at her so she 'll have a second of "look at me i'm cooler than Jillian time" . I thought I was alone who didn't like her :))))
