I just previewed workout 11 to see what is in store for me on Monday. Death is imminent. I think JM has truly lost her mind. Scorpion pushups and more dive bombers. Someone please come rescue me from the broken heap on my living room floor!

I just have to believe I have survived the rest, I will survive this one...

    LMAO I love your post. I am only in week 1 (doing the kickstart 2 a days workouts) but posts like this scare me and makes me excited at the same time. I am up for the challenge. Now ask me how I feel about it when I get to workout 11 :-) Still cracking up at your post LMAO

    Yeah, 9 is rough!!! I think that 12 is better than 11..so at least you have that to look forward too! :) good luck!

    Okay, this makes me feel a little better. I survived 9, not prettily, but survived.

    Today was my last day of week 5 and 6. The main thing I can't really do are those blasted crabs! By the end of 6 I can only do the regular ones and I have to take breaks. I always look ahead to see what's next, but I don't usually look ahead of what's coming after that. So I checked out 7 and 8 and I'm scared. I don't know what's coming after that and I'm REALLY SCARED!!!!!

    I'm on tap to do workout 11 on Monday also. I barely survived 9&10. I am seriously afraid to preview tomorrow.

    oh yikes I found this workout really challenging! Now I know why the people in the dvd don't sink right down in their static squats and presses! Ouch! Managed scorpion push ups both sets unmodified but the dive bomber with a reverse had to do the down dog version as my body wasn't co-operating. The three part push up I did two before I had to come to my knees, same with cable push up, only managed a couple before modyfying. It was brutal!!!!!!

    I too have to agree that soooo far #11 seems the hardest but I did this workout AFTER riding my bike 11 miles in winds of 30 mph so just maybe my leg fatique came from some of the biking! maybe :laugh: :laugh: !!

    Yeah, 11 is HARD. After 11 & 12, I was just really glad there was not a 13!

    Well, I didn't die but I think I left parts of my quads and triceps on the floor. I managed the scorpion pushups but the three way pushups are of the devil! I'm previewing 12 now. It looks hard, but not nearly as scary.

    Did 12 today and those wheel pushups were seriously ridiculous!

    Wait until cardio three.

    Seriously, I don't preview the dvd before I am doing them. I tell myself I can do it and I just push ahead. If I previewed what I was about to do, I would totally enter into new videos with dread and the wrong mindset.

    Workout 12 is now complete for the first time and it is probably my favorite of the entire series. Is it wrong that I actually like wheel pushups?

    Yes, it is wrong. They are AWFUL! :)
    But I know what you mean. I LOVE boat pose and chair pose.
