Hi Everyone,
Yesterday I did manage a dog walk outdoors (it was chilly but not bad) and then after work I did Jessica's Nature Walk. (on the AAP) I really liked the Nature Walk - it was intended more for 'movement' than exercise, and sometimes that is what we need. I like the way Jessica focuses more on a fitness lifestyle as opposed to just going all out all the time. I found the Nature Walk to be almost a cross between a walking workout and a fusion type workout Today, so far: Jessica Smith - Cardio Flow from Total Body Balance - this one is one I have done many times and it is a favorite. It also worked well for me since it was only 20 minutes and I got a late start. Jessica Smith - 10 Min Stretch and Destress Total Body I plan to walk outdoors later with my doggie and maybe some Pilates tonight I have to get back to more regular Pilates workouts. Neita - I should pull out a FIRM workout for nostalgia Sherry - definitely count your walking at work as exercise and start back slow. I do think that some people can be overly critical of things they don't like - and it is hard not to feel defensive if it is something you enjoy. Good thing there is something for everyone. Jessica remains one of my favorite instructors -she has a great demeanor - and I think she is super talented b/c she is able to teach so many formats so well. I also think she has a nice balanced approach to fitness and knows that it is important to balance things out - not hard all the time, not easy all the time, etc wave Pam and wishiwasinhawaii!!

Hi Ladies,
After Dean's yoga today, I added Cathe's LITE Pyramid Pump (Upper Body) because I wanted to use my stability ball. I goofed around searching for my pump, since ball was deflated. When I got it back to where it should be and sat on it, I could hear "hiss", lol. Nope, not gonna chance it. So I hiked back upstairs to my bedroom to locate my other stability ball, which was fine. This was a tough workout working your way up from lightest to heaviest weight (and then back down) from heaviest to lightest. Using the stability definitely works your core, which is what I was aiming for really. After yoga, I was just going to grab a core workout but couldn't decide on one. So a Cathe workout using the stability ball from the LITE series was today's ultimate choice. Now that I've got my stability ball out, I need to do Cathe's Butts and Guts, as that's been a long time. Anyway, today noticed my hands/fingers were hurting, so I know I must have had a death grip on my weights today. I'll have to do some hands/fingers mobility stretches tonight. Neita, yes I've been reading some of the information with regard to Engage. I signed up to get the emails and I'm not sure I want to make the commitment financially or timewise. I do so much already, not sure I need even more of Dean at the moment. I am a lifetime member and was happy about doing that, instead of monthly or yearly subscriptions. Just having access to all of his yoga on the forum and being part of the MFY Community is enough for me. I don't need to do "live" yoga sessions with all the guys, etc.
