Yikes I'm already behind again! Happy Tuesday, Watulans!
Sunday was Leah's Ballet Body Upper Body plus Squeeze Lower Body Challenge. I have to say, holy flying monkeys, I felt a very noticeable difference doing the upper body work, like way stronger, and I know it's all core because the first freaking 20 minutes of that workout she has you in some sort of non-stop plank (brutal)!
But I was thrilled about how strong I felt, and there are other things happening too that I'm super happy about. The lower body challenge is new-to-me and will take some adjusting to figure out what the heck she was doing in some parts, hah!
Yesterday was CL 77, Blast, Barre, and Bands (or something like that) which was EXCELLENT. Five circuits of three cardio blasts followed by compound work followed by lower body barre work followed by bands plus light weights for upper body. Sweat fest total body workout with only 5 pound weights and tubing!
Bee, you kinda took the words out of my mouth with STS 2! I know I'll probably get it but after the favorable changes I'm seeing with my current routine, I question if I really will get it? UG! I'd have FOMO if I didn't, I know that, but....but....ARG!! I guess wait and see...I'm enjoying what I'm doing right now but we all know about rotation fatigue! Speaking of, major props to those of you finishing a Caroline rotation!!
ChelePA, SO sorry to hear about your mom's friend.
Glad you could drive! I laughed so hard at your husband and daughter's 'who makes DVDs??' comment!!! Although maybe I should cry about that.
VVfer, I have never, ever, once done that original Buns of Steel and have always been so curious about it! But not sure I can get over the outfits, hah!! Happy to hear about the good meetups!
Nathalie, SO good to see you! I laughed about the burpee comment. I get tired of burpees and the like sometimes too.
OMG,
Manleym, I have a similar coffee story. My husband was the one to make it that morning only he didn't quite get the carafe properly situated and when I came downstairs, coffee was EVERYWHERE, running into the cabinet below, all around the lazy Susan that's in there, all over the floor, counter, everywhere. It took FOREVER to clean all that up and I told him he was no longer allowed to make the coffee.
Gotta run, behind on work...have a great day all!!
