Here in the nest hour or so I will be doing a cardio hula video! Woo hoo!
I'll come back and tell you how it went..
LynnMcG - October 10, 2006 03:24 PM (GMT)
I did my balance ball ab work (30 minutes) and my Beach Body Thin Thighs (7 minutes). I'm planning to do cardio after I get Bubba on the bus.

I drove the kids to the YMCA, dropped the oldest off for homeschool PE and the youngest at the nursery. Then I sat and drank coffee and chatted with my 88 year old buddy Carl for an hour.
:wave:

Well I justfinished my hula cardio and before i started I gave my daughter one of my MIB ten year old Hula Hair barbies9gotta do something with them) and this is a really cute doll..Pink hair down to the heels and a glittery grass skirt...well anyway by the end of the 25 minute video the doll's hair is ratted and nasty!!!! I told her that I'm taking the doll away for the rest oif the day and I will fix the hair and she is NEVER to treat her stuff like this again. I gott teach her to take care of her things :nono:

Alrighty, let's wrangle this thread in. Clay, go away. I say that with love, I swear. String, sorry to hear about your Barbie.
Let's try to keep this thread to check ins only. K? I'm really serious about doing this.
Thanks you guys.

I did a half hour with Fit Tv this morning (cardio), and when Andie's down for her rest I plan on doing some abs/arms/etc.
Do you guys want to do a weekly "pounds lost" post?
rasplundjr - October 10, 2006 08:56 PM (GMT)
Umm today so far nil... in a couple of hours though I have to chase two kids and a wife through a Grocery store and Walmart... will that count?
Well until I can get a scale that reads up to 500 or at least 450 I can't do a pounds lost post....

I'm ignoring you Squat. Besides, we're all really busy getting ready for the "Squat's leaving for a week" party. So move along...
I walked again this afternoon. I walked to the school and back three times today.

Good job, Lynn! I flaked on my workout this afternoon....no excuses, just didn't get myself motivated....:wall:
Tomorrow I WILL do better!! :thumbsup:
rasplundjr - October 11, 2006 05:36 AM (GMT)
Got some 5 lb barbells today did some curls with those.
Got a Resistance band kit did a couple different Exercises with those
Got a jump rope with weighted handles did about 3 sets of 15 with that and damne near gae myself a heart attack I forgot how much jumping rope tires me out.....
Walked all over walmart and the grocery store.
Need to find my little hand grip thingy.....
rasplundjr - October 11, 2006 11:20 AM (GMT)
This AM couple of different moves with hte 5lb bells.....
Trying to fight to stay awake to get kids off to school. I'll do more later.
andiesmama - October 11, 2006 02:09 PM (GMT)
Wow, Raspy...you're doing great! :thumbsup:
I had every intention of working out this morning but it was a morning when things were just stacked against me, everything was going wrong! Finally got everything straightened away, so now I'm giving my brain (and BP) a rest & vegging on the computer....
I WILL workout this afternoon, tho....don't want my exercise buddies to show me up!! :box:
Stringaling - October 11, 2006 02:22 PM (GMT)
IF walking the kids to school counts then I have to agree that trapsing around walmart has to count too. Especially when I go with my hub,. He will stay in that store and go up and down practically every aisle...
So I walked Walmart last night..
Honey - October 11, 2006 07:41 PM (GMT)
Since I'm here....
I did my bellydancing this morning. I make myself do it whether I "feel" like it or not....kinda like sex, yanno? :P
LynnMcG - October 11, 2006 07:59 PM (GMT)
Kinda like sex...you kill me.
OK, I did my Walk/Kick 20 minute work out and 15 minute balance ball ab work out. Feeling all sorts of pain today.
andiesmama - October 11, 2006 09:45 PM (GMT)
I'm so pumped! I THOUGHT I remembered something on our PayPer View channels about exercising....so I went & checked it out today and sure enough, there's a whole "Exercise TV" channel...the best thing? It's FREE!! :booyah:
So I worked about 15 minutes doing abs & butt, then I found a bunch of Leslie Sansone's walking workouts, so I found one & did that as well....
Total of 30 minutes workout....:step:
rasplundjr - October 11, 2006 10:52 PM (GMT)
More resistance bands.... More barbell/ dumbell stuff.....
LAughed a lot..... Hey it burns calories too and it's fun.......
LynnMcG - October 12, 2006 01:30 PM (GMT)
Walked to school and back...slow since I was with Sean, but I was moving. I walk back to school later, alone to get the kids, so that will be quicker. Total of 2 miles by the end of the day.
I did my 30 minute Leslie Sansone Walk/Kick plus my 7 minute Beach Body Thin Thighs work out.
Keep moving guys! Keep laughing Raspy!
Stringaling - October 12, 2006 02:50 PM (GMT)
Laughing is really the best, I think...too bad I havn't needed to in a while..

I laugh with my kids every day...regardless of what's going on in my life. Why should they pay?
rasplundjr - October 12, 2006 06:48 PM (GMT)
Barbells did a couple reps... don't feel like doing anything else might try to drag my sorry butt to do the resistance bands in a bit.....
Stringaling - October 12, 2006 07:28 PM (GMT)
I'm scared of resistance bands. Are they like really big rubber bands that you pull on?? Is it possible for one to break?? That would relly hurt..
LynnMcG - October 13, 2006 01:07 PM (GMT)
Spoke with DH last night, we're going to join the Y. Yipee!!
I have a friend who's a coach and former 2 time Olympic athlete. I'm going to see if I can get her to come with me one day and set up a program. I really want to add strength training to my routine. I know it will make a HUGE difference for me.

Yeah it's possible, but if you take care of the bands it's not likely.
rasplundjr - October 13, 2006 01:29 PM (GMT)
Tired soooo tired... dunno if I'm doing anything but shopping today.......
(Grocery)
rasplundjr - October 14, 2006 02:59 AM (GMT)
Raked the yard some, played handyman I think that counts as a minor workout.
andiesmama - October 14, 2006 07:33 PM (GMT)
geez, I've been a slacker!:wall:
None to speak of yesterday, today went to the playground with Andie & pushed her on the swings, so at least my arms got a workout! :cool:
I know, no excuses......
LynnMcG - October 15, 2006 12:17 AM (GMT)
OK, nothing Friday or Saturday. No excuses. I spent WAY too much time online Friday. Then I worked Friday night and most of Saturday. I'm fried...and I'm eating oatmeal/raisin/cranberry/chocolate chip cookies!
rasplundjr - October 16, 2006 11:16 AM (GMT)
Working on Computers Saturday then had to go make swords at my sister's for a Halloween Party on this Coming Saturday....
Wrestling with Pool Noodles and trying to fit them over PVC is a workout trust me.....
Sunday was ill didn't bother with anything, still blah today but we'll see what happens....
LynnMcG - October 16, 2006 03:22 PM (GMT)
OK, not moving that much today either. We went ot see Spiderman at school this morning. But that didn't involve anything more than running away when Sean started to scream.
andiesmama - October 16, 2006 05:19 PM (GMT)
After my TWO POUND weight GAIN at my weigh-in this morning.... :bored: :wall: ...I'm back on the exercise wagon with a vengeance...
Did a "pumped up" 2-mile walk today, so that's 30 min of cardio...:thumbsup:
:step:
Honey - October 17, 2006 01:15 PM (GMT)
Yesterday I did my 80 minute belly dancing DVD. I'm thinking of bumping it up to 4 times a week...
andiesmama - October 17, 2006 01:57 PM (GMT)
I did a 15 min jog (with my walking "buddy", Leslie Sansone)...will do my regular 30 min walking workout this afternoon.
Honey - October 17, 2006 05:07 PM (GMT)
I did belly dancing again today. This time in front of a full-length mirror....scary stuff, I tell ya! :P I'd better do it EVERYday!
rasplundjr - October 17, 2006 07:43 PM (GMT)
Sick past two days..... I feel like death warmed over refrozen left to thaw and rot in the sun for five days.......
