HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY TO ALL!

Sorry for skipping out today on the CP walk. I have a head cold and think my video workout is enough for me today! I hope everyone plans on enjoying St.Paddy's day in your own way!

Cloie, I'm w. you- I am sore. Mine is in my back and hip flexors. Sounds like your pecs hurt! Ain't it great!lol

Pam- enjoy your downtown walk. It will feel great in this weather.

Can't wait to hear about your workout last night Teresa. And Jen- 20 mile back up stinks but it's better than a 20 mile walk- ha ha!

Cheers to all!

BRING IT!

Wow, you girls are rockn! Good luck w. the training Jen. I need to start running soon. Wanted to get first 2 weeks of videos under my belt first. I did the cardio x video today. I made it through the whole thing w. some modifications. It felt good compared to yesterday. Now I'm eating my healthy choice! Had my shot of Mona Vie today in hopes for magical powers (lol).

Cloie, you are kicking butt. Ready for summer????? Thanks for keeping me on track not to quit cuz it's hard! Bring it! ;)

Pam....Sounds like your in motion! Keep it up! Summer is right around the corner and so are SHORTS AND SWIM SUITS! Yikes! Love you ladies!

Phase 1

So I did the first disc on P90X. All I can say is bluck! I only made it for 45 minutes and almost puked. First lesson: don't eat before hand. But I will continue in hopes to build up my endurance for the program and get stronger. Happy monday! Stay dry!

Spring has Sprung. Summer is coming!

Welcome back Pam. Glad you made the decision to do what is best for you. BTW, The outdoor yard work is exercise. So, don't knock it.

I did my fitness test Sat for P90X. I passed all the areas except abs....of course and the jumping jacks about killed me at the end. Who knew that would be so tough. Embarrassing. But now the work begins.

I decided to start the Lean workout tomorrrow. Teresa is going to try the videos too. The plan is we will start the same day. I don't want to miss out at the gym so I'm going to do my cardio there a few times a week.Plus I need to start running. I'll miss body pump, though. But it's only temporarily. Mark started today. It was easy for him (so far). He is doing the Classic workout. Lean is for weight loss, that's why I chose that one.

I had a great weekend. I hope everyone else did, too! I will keep blogging my experience with the videos and hope to hear about your progress too.

P90X has arrived!

And it looks HARD! I watched a few videos last night to see what was in store for me. Oh boy! Looks tough. I still have to figure out how to balance the program with the gym with running. Cloie, sounds like you do it w. running. I may need some tips! My thoughts are to do the program and use the gym for cardio with some outdoor runs.

Jen, glad you're back! Keep up the work. You will make your goal in may! Commit! Pam is busy w. school but I still want to bug her.....it sounds stressful which is even more reason to 'give yourself 30 minutes a day'. I think a group email is in order;)

Teresa and I are doing STRIVE today. I am so sore from squats and our walk that body pump doesn't sound appealing today. Plus the class is getting crazy crowded! Tomorrow is another cardio day. Then hopefully Saturday is the begining of toning this cupcake into a little better shape!

Central Park Loop

Teresa and I did the CP Loop today. I forgot how much I enjoyed that walk. It felt great to get outside again. I think I will make Wednesdays my official 'be outside and walk/run in CP'. So, anyone that can make it we would love for you to come. Today we went from 930 til about 1050. We are working back up to that 2 hour mark! Have a sweaty day! Work tonight and body pump tomorrow! Cheers!
