Today's workout was:
Pahla B -
Weight Loss Over 50 - Day 11 - 23 minutes
This was a tough one for me - I was really sweating when I finished. Not sure if it was the workout, or the fact that I had spent much of the afternoon outside on the porch with the dogs in the heat. Although the time did go quickly, I was glad when it was done. The workout consisted of 30 second cardio intervals with a few intervals of ab work using a chair interspersed. After you had done all of the exercises twice, you moved to the chair for four ab exercises (30 second intervals of each one, with the entire circuit repeated twice.)
Tomorrow is cardio yoga and I'm trying to envision what that's going to look like.
Dana - I know what you mean about weight.
Mine isn't good - heaviest I've ever been. I've done WW over the years, but their program has gotten stricter and pushes you into healthier food choices by penalizing you for eating things they consider unhealthy. Sometimes their points system just irritates me. For now, I am counting calories and it hasn't been too hard. Using an app called Lose It to do the tracking and it's very user friendly. I actually don't mind doing it. Pahla's workouts tend to fly by for me as well, and feeling good is a real bonus. Maybe you could just turn the sound down a bit. Although Pahla never shuts up, at least what she says is encouraging and generally relevant.
Donna - I like that workout of Ellen's a lot. I thought about Jessica's SOS rotation after I finished the Strong and Calm one, but it ended up looking tougher than I wanted right now.
Brenda - Good job!
Waves to
Christine,
Linda and
