Anny, we usually get a mix of sun and rain this summer, but this summer it has been EXTREMELY dry! It's nice for the opportunity to do outdoor yoga and outdoor dining, but it's been murder on our lawn. In fact, DH was very glad it rained all day Saturday (his birthday!) so that he likely wouldn't have to water the lawn this week. Today it was a downpour that probably lasted no more than 20 minutes.

Sandra, cool about the blue collar worker getting into Harvard! I think the Cathe I kept the longest was KPC (Kick Punch Crunch). I liked it, but I always felt like I "should" like Cathe more than I actually did; I find her to be a little to scripted. The Upper Body WHFN with Keli Roberts was another I owned for awhile; again, I liked it, but Keli is kind of another "should" instructor for me. (yes I am picky!)

Barre3 Standing Slim (Legs, Arms & Core; Glutes & Stretch segments)
YouTube: Yin Yoga Heart Alchemy Yoga with Michelle Goldstein https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCv4tagvnXg I enjoyed the lower body work in Standing Slim. I thought the arm work in Standing Slim was lacking and not much of an upper body workout. I think Beth had told us about the YouTube practice Yin Yoga Heart Alchemy Yoga with Michelle Goldstein, which I really love. It's very relaxing. Anny, I think it's great that you are an outgoing person. I'm genetically wired to be a shy introvert. I think I would have more fun if I was outgoing. Garrie, I liked hearing your thoughts about Cathe's IMAX. Do you like your teaching job at the rec center more than your job at the book store? Linda, I like Margaret's Getting Better. I need to pull that one out. Sandra, yeah that was a wonderful story about the story about the garbage collector who got into Harvard Law School. |

Paine, I may have mentioned that YouTube yoga practice...but it's not one that I saved! Maybe I got it from lurker Sherry?
I have noticed in Barre3 that sometimes Sadie says how you are getting a great upper body workout...when you are not really doing much with your arms. I have added light weights to some of the workouts even when they don't include them.

Anny, here's an example where Sadie adds light weights:
https://youtu.be/NMyZNnGJljw?list=PL...GUooybGMZE54Wd It can be somewhat TA-like; sometimes the move are more traditional bicep curls/tricep extensions, just with light weights. There are also a lot of alternating arm moves coordinated with the lower body. That type of work sometimes reminds me of Classical Stretch, but Barre3 generally moves faster and can provide a decent cardio workout at times. Hope your busy day goes okay!
