Ha!! Yes and no. It's a love/hate thing especially today because I had a migraine but I didn't get to "shred" over the weekend so I had to push through. Now that I know the routine I've been doing the muting and playing my own music thing too. That does help me stay strong.

How are you gals doing?? Today was a roadblock - mostly because I started my period and feel terrible and unmotivated. The first three days went well-- the bicycle kicks are hard and I'm dripping when I'm done but I feel good with the endorphins.

Ugh - I was really not doing well during my session this morning. My boobs REALLY hurt and I had no energy. Turns out I started my period a week early. I didn't get a good burn today as I gave up on some of the jumping but now I know why I felt terrible. I'm going out of town for the weekend - not sure I'll get my workout…

It was a great workout and I actually look forward to doing more and the results that…

I have between 70-90lbs to lose. I'm looking to tone up and lose inches as much as shed pounds so my top priority is strength and fitness for the healthiest ME. I am over 40 and have young kids so this is a top priority to me.

I think I remember feeling the same way you did. But honestly I prefer to go alone now. I mean, I've gotten to know some of the other class "regulars" but I think I get much more effective of a workout and burn when I'm concentrating solely on ME and the job at hand and not having a laugh with chums or wondering if they…
