Strength Invtervals
Good morning and happy Sunday MFPeeps! Today is my first day of Strength Interval classes. Who has done these yet? What to expect??
Define - Upper & Lower Body
So what are your thoughts on these 2 classes? I feel like they could really be combined into one, 40 minute class instead of two 20 minute sessions.

Introducing Myself
Hi, Piyo people! I thought I'd hop in and introduce myself, as I'm new to the group. I'm a 43 year old happily single female in Houston, TX. When I'm not doing Piyo, I'm running with the Hash House Harriers (On On) and doing Turbo Jam. Sometimes I even run for fun in my neighborhood, but most of my running happens with the…
Tracking PiYo
I don't have a heart rate monitor so I'm wondering how everyone is tracking the PiYo workouts. I tried listing it as either aerobic low impact or calisthenics, light/moderate effort. Not sure which one is closer to accurate. Aerobics is higher and calisthenics is lower. On a sweat day it feels more like aerobics. What do…
Week 3
So today started week 3 for me and the second to last Define class. Now it's time to really get down to business! I've been adding in cardio pretty much every day and this week I plan to be more consistent with my weight training also. Needless to say, I can't wait until Friday to hop on the scale (although that's not what…
Week 2
Hello Week 2! This morning I did Sweat, then did a little weight circuit this afternoon. I weighed in this morning just for funsies, and was down almost 2 lbs from Friday (though nothing is official for me until Friday) so that was definitely awesome to see! I am feeling longer and leaner after only 8 days of PiYo and am…
Define - Upper & Lower Body
Okay, so who else thinks that these two classes could be put together? They both are roughly 20 minutes running time on the DVD's so I feel like they really should just be put together for one nice 40 minute long class. Last night I just did lower body plus 20 minutes on my elliptical to really get in a good sweat session.
Rest Day
Today was day 5 for me, which means Rest Day. I missed Wednesday's workout so I did doubles yesterday (Sweat and Upper Body) and took today off as per the schedule. Tomorrow will be Lower & Upper combined and Sunday I'll probably just do cardio as my workout, or maybe my bonus dvd, Hardcore on the Floor. Not sure which…

Day 1 - The Fundamentals
Align - The Fundamentals This is the most important class of PiYo! Learning the moves and Chalene's cues so you know how to modify and what it is she's talking about. I personally watched through the DVD once then followed through and did the exercises with her on screen so I wasn't straining my neck to try and see what it…
