No, I live in North Idaho where we are desperately hoping for shipment of shovel max! My Mom and Dad lived in Neptune. At least you have the most awesome place to walk! That is one of the few things I miss from there.

Day 3 is a rest day for most people, but that just means the snow has melted and is going to re-freeze overnight, setting you up for Day 4: Ice Chipping Extreme. By the afternoon of Day 4 the air has warmed up properly, the snow that didn't freeze into a sheet of ice has sublimed and gone into the clouds and re-emerged as ... snow: Day 5 is the same program as Day 2. The programs for Day 6 and 7 depend on whether you've ordered the Upslope Bonus workouts...
I love your post!

I hate Shovel Max when it comes up in the rotation as a single workout, but when the whole set comes up as a rotation, that's where I draw the line! Grrrrrrrrrrr.

You ladies are giving me a good workout of Smile Max.
I live in NC so we only get the Shovel Max workout about once a year,thank goodness.
One year we had 21 inches of snow! Paralyzed our whole area for 2 weeks. :eek Our kids had the No School Max workout for 10 days! It was the Drive Mom Crazy Max workout!

PS....laurajhawk,you are too funny!

Holy crap...I did Shovel Max for 3-1/2 hours today. NE Ohio...we got at least 2 feet last night and it's been snowing all evening, so I may have to do it again tomorrow. My arms and shoulders are killing me... I think I've done enough strength and cardio today to last the rest of the week...

I'm on the No-Buy Commitment for 2012, so I certainly didn't pre-order this workout , and I also didn't pay any $$ for it, but I'd gladly trade it away ASAP because I don't want to do it again any time soon.... Grrrrrrrrrr.... Any takers??? (or should I put it on the Exchange thread?)

Renee, Smile Max is my favorite of the bunch, but it comes up so seldom that I completely lose the track of it, almost to the point when I don't remember it's there....

HECK NO! Don't put this one on the Exchange Board! Just toss it in a garbage instead, because no one will thank you for it in you give it to them. Unless they are completely unaware, but you never want to spring it on anyone, right? We are a friendly bunch here!
