Wow. I sure am behind!!
I have done Firm Volume 6, which was good, but I did it with light weights and was surprised when the end came, because I never felt like I did much. I need heavier weights, because that is truly a weight workout, not a cardio!!
Firm Volume 1 (two days ago). I did it with 10's as my heavy, 5's as my medium and 2's as my 1 1/2 pound weights in iron aerobics. I didn't use any weight on the legs and I thought I would die!! That was nuts. I used to use 12 pounds! I really need to work on my leg strength. I even did all the reps on, let's say my left leg, then for leg shoots switched to the right. Then went back to left to finish out. I am so weak on those! I need to do those firms more often to build it up. It'll help my knee I am sure of it, because after I do vol 1 my knee feels a bit better!
I also finished out my Body Beast rotation. I am going to continue on with alternating build and bulk weeks though. Adding in the Firm like I have been and a yoga day. I did Firm Yoga yesterday, which I didn't realize I had their yoga. I found it in the Fit Prime box I have (of fit primes), and decided it would be good to try.
We have been super busy! We got about 5" of snow on Tuesday. We have swim lessons this week, spent the weekend madly getting the yard ready for snow (quick transition from 90 degrees on Monday to 29 on Tuesday!), winterizing the camper, pulling out shovels, all in 90 degree heat. We also had to get the foundation for the garage ready for concrete, since they are coming today and we thought we were getting 12" of snow (according to the "meteorologists") and we wanted to get it all done in the warm rather than the cold.
PLUS we are getting a new refrigerator this morning, so I have to find a screw driver that fits the weird star shape of the door so we can take off the door, plus move some stuff, clean out the fridge/freezer (our old one was built in March of 2000 and is STILL going strong! I just have never liked it. It's a side by side and VERY narrow. Like, once we buy a gallon of milk and put a pickle jar next to it, we are out of space). We just have to make space for them to deliver it. Plus the concrete comes this afternoon at 1, so we have some relatives coming over to help. PLUS LB has swim lessons this morning. PLUS she wants a friend over while we get concrete. Probably No, LB!! HA!
Anyhow, busy today. Hopefully tomorrow I rest (after swim lessons). It's freaking cold out, we got a little more snow last night. we have 80 degrees in the 10 day though!
Ebianco" so good to see you!! I don't know if you are a praying sort, but we will add you to our prayers! Sorry you are going through such a rough patch. Hopefully it all gels out soon and this time next year you can cringe but know you made it through. It's never good when lawyers have to get involved, but if that's the best way to do things, that's what has to happen. I'm so sorry!!
I have Cathe's slide and glide, but it's still in the shrink-wrap
Thanks though!
Eventmom: My niece still is friendless. She said there are so many rules in place and the threat of getting kicked out, she is afraid to go out and try to meet anyone. She has joined a few online clubs, and keeps in touch with her high school friends. LB and I are going to call her this weekend because she gets loneliest on weekends. I hope things loosen up for them soon because I can see how if someone is super fragile right now, it could push them over the edge.
So I gotta get going. I have so much to do this morning! It might be a morning off from working out so I can get it all done!!
