Good Morning Ladies:flowerforyou: I'm definitely on the mends and I'm able to breathe again:laugh: I was even able to do a pilates workout last night which my poor unused muscles felt throughout the workout. It felt good to do something but my body is definitely not ready for any high impact routines yet. I revamped my…

Hey Ladies, Friday night I came down with something:sick: ..probably what my 9 year old had last weekend. Weak, tired, can't breathe and coughing til my lungs hurt. So nyquil and bed at 9:30pm and it has been a recovery since then, the worst part is that my online contract started on Saturday so I have been pushing to do…

Good Morning Ladies, Hubby was tired this morning so I took over morning duties with the 9 yr old. My eyes were so tired and the coffee was no help but I completed my workout. Instead of Bootcamp I tried Billy Blanks Amped Buns and actually burned 600 calories in 40 minutes which was great. It was not high impact but a…

Reduce the carbs by using half and half cream or Almond breeze milk. I use 1/2 cup soy milk, ice, pp and 1/4 cup frozen fruit. As i drink mine after a workout the muscles soak the carbs up immediately so 26-2 grams of fiber is pretty decent. Michelle

Ok this was great but I could not figure out the name of the item because everything was written in small letters..Lol Anyway thanks for the info and here is some additional information on the topic. So Delicious creamers are: • Dairy Free / Lactose Free • Soy Free • Gluten Free • Rich in Medium Chain Fatty Acids •…

Morning Ladies:flowerforyou: Erika- Yes I need constant change which is good and bad at times. Unfortunately after the knee injury I needed a high caloric burn without the heavy weight and so far so good with Circuit training:drinker: Whew....another Iv stat......early start for me as my body is wierd and tends to perform…

Good Morning Everyone, Laurie- I see that you are going insane with your program. Don't forget to take measurements so that you can see the differences:wink: Tami- Years ago I did a Challenge from M&F which had us doing HIIT after our weight routines and that program created my best body ever in 12 weeks. I did use the…

Morning:flowerforyou: Rest day for me as those back to back circuits finally caught up to me DOMS:bigsmile: Last night while hubby and I were catching up on shows I engaged in a great stretch routine, I also used Tony's frog and pigeon from P90X:laugh: My body needed that one for sure as my chest muscles were stiff from…

Morning Ladies, This morning was kickboxing on an empty stomach which was a bad move:grumble: Unfortunately I had been up for over an hour and I bonked at the 30 minute mark and started to have the shakes. Needless to say I stopped and nibbled on some fruit and then my protein. So it seems like I may have a pm workout…

Morning Ladies, This week has been a non-schedule week...just doing full body circuit using body weight or a medicine ball. Today was Body by Jabe which uses a medicne ball for the entire 44minutes. It was great and kept the heart rate at max. Yesterday I did Jackie warner's Power circuit and I could feel it in my abs as…

If you bought the one that cost arround 50.00 then you have to tilt it under the frame and then pull up and anchor on the side that you are facing. I ordered mine from Amazon and it is standard for most door frames. HTH, Michelle

what does it involve routine wise..my copy has not arrived in the mail yet? Michelle

Thighs are tightening and your middle section is slimming also. Way to go on 18:bigsmile: Michelle

Good morning Ladies, Tired this morning which is due to a few hours sleep last night...no superbowl parties just restless children:yawn: Since I worked out this weekend, I don't mind the unexpected rest day. Laurie & Erika- ExerciseTv has so many categories from Abs, pilates, dance, cardio and a 30 day weight loss. There…

Whew, I did not want to workout this morning but I got moving anyway. I think the thought of moving weights in from the garage was a major turn-off, so I turned on ExerciseTV on demand and did a Jeanette jenkins workout. I enjoyed that she used her HRM and kept us informed throughout the workout , she also combined lots of…

Good afternoon ladies, I hurt my knee yesterday and in all honesty it could be the tuck jumps, plyo jumps or anything from 30/30. Needless to say I have been limping along since last night and just listened to my body this morning. I opted to skip the MM as time was an issue and instead played Frisbee with my 3 year old…

Don't you hate when that happens:bigsmile: . Usually I just sit and change things up until they make sense based on my custom ratios of 40/30/30 or 50/30/20. I think that it is important to work with it until it becomes second nature but those numbers really don't leave any food except for a sugary piece of something not…

As I had this problem which led to a stalled weight loss, I decided to make breakfast the king of my meals, so after my intense workouts I give my body a good breakfast ranging from shakes to protein pancakes w/egg whites. I now break my meals into 3- 400 calorie meals and 3 snacks at 150-250 a piece and I will eat my last…

Hey Military wifes, I'm new here and trying to shed the pounds that came on after hubby returned from his 15 months. I definitely tried to feed him homecooked meals or anything b/c his sytem was so messed up, however I gained the weight that I had lost while he was gone. Figures! DC07- I have been married 15 years and the…

Get me an IV stat:noway: I just completed Cathe's Hiit...OMG 30/30 was max heart rate at your best. Now I'm familiar with Hiit and has probaby taken a month and a half from intervals...well never again:bigsmile: For now I will keep 30/30 for my Thursday morning rotation until March then its off to 40/20 ladies! For now its…

If you are looking for great Kickboxing then try her MMA boxing or her Kick, punch and crunch. Kathy's Smith Cardio kickbox is another one that I just discovered on Amazon. It has 3 workouts, 1 kickboxing with a martial art expert and an Aeroboxing with Canadian boxer Michael O. I absolutely love these two workouts and the…

I have all except for CP2. I bought the max burn package. My fave is PKJ, Live Booty and lower body jam but I wish I could take moves from CP3, CP and pkj to create the best ever workout. Unfortunately I grew tired of the CP thing and moved on to Chalene Xtreme where my favorites were here Intervals dvds. Michelle

We have been using soy milk products since my eldest weaned years ago and as I'm lactose intolerant vanilla soy milk is our staple. I make all of my portein shakes with soy milk, 1/2 cup of frozen mangos, bananas and strawberries, 1 scoop of protein powder and some wheat germ/flaxseed blend...viola! Toss it into the bullet…

Check out fitness.com and shape.com for some of their on the go and quick meal ideas. Unfortunately my stuff is boring, egg and turkey wraps, oatmeal w/protein powder...however today I did something different and used 1/3 cup of complete pancake mix, 1.5 scoops of vanilla protein powder and wheat germ to make 2 pancakes. I…

Update: I did MMA Fusion and it was a great workout to fit in midweek. It was not too intense but it burned over 500 cals. The first section used boxing moves with drills, the 2nd circuit was difficult to manage b/c it involves this move where you roll to your back and then come up on the right foot (I missed the placement…

I felt lost on Spark people b/c it is so busy but it is a great group. I love their recipe section which also provides great healthy easy meals with nutritional input from members. I always go there to use their recipe maker which creates personal recipes and gives you the breakdown for any servings..Love that feature!…

Good morning, Yesterday's aerobox had me asleep by 12 last night. This morning I woke up with some serious quad soreness in the right thigh, could be the bob and weave from aeroxing or the new Kickbox dvd, Total Cardio Kickbox that I borrowed from the library. Nice quick simple routine. On the schedule is MMA fusion or a…

Unfortunately you are not the only one. I have been steady with this for 3 weeks and finally lost 2lbs. It is frustrating but I do lifts weights and do cardio 6x per week so I know that for me forget about Mr. Scale. The only time that I have actually lost consistently was after my second pregnancy when I did LA weight…

I like going to the Spa so a 3hr spa package, a pedicure and mani, new books, a scone if I really feel as if I have earned it or even some new shoes or boots.

Melissa, I loved those intervals but BIO or Fat challenge for 30 minutes will give you those extra calories. Michelle
