Physique


serious burn

I don't have money for a gym.

I don't have money for a trainer.

I like routine.

What do you think? Anybody else out there in the same boat?

From the primordial sludge

I'm thinking about this workout called 30 Minutes to a Sleek Physique. What are your thoughts? My favorite part is that I can do it anywhere. Reminds me of my friend MizFit.

*I wrote this before she made her big announcement yesterday.  She has her own! My Trainer Fitness doesn't need a computer, and goes anywhere without internet or electricity! Genius.  Pre-order now.

    I'm with you. I'm in the same boat. I like my Leslie Sansone videos just fine. I sweat. I get my heart rate up between 150-170 each time for 30 mins...I can mix it up with several different videos...I can add some 5 Below hand weights for a bit of resistance. I'm good. I'm happy. I'm down 40 pounds and still going strong!

    I feel the same. I'm enjoying running outside though, now that it's spring. For a serious butt-kicking workout, I do Jillian Michael's 30 day shred. Also, if you have Netflix, there are a lot of workout videos available on watch instantly. Hope that helps.

    I heart bodyweight exercises. They will never leave me because my body is always there. I did mountain climbers this morning. I totally think you should do the sleek physique thing. Dooos it!

    Looks interesting. I also like the FIRM (older ones are better- the ones with the step).

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

I Found True Happiness

It feels like I've become a detached voice, writing but not feeling on this blog.  I'm living a lot of things that don't fit neatly into my bloggable ownership file. Even now, I've spent an hour with this tab open to write a new post and I've done absolutely everything else possible.  For once I can't put a finger on what I'm feeling.  I don't fit into any definable box. On one hand, I'm spending an hour in therapy with Chickadee and another hour round trip three times a week. Mr. Survival is fighting off unemployment blues. We cannot shake things up and have me go to work. I'm not going to go to FitBloggin'11 . But, on the other hand, Chickadee is STANDING in the stander for minutes instead of seconds! Chickadee is grasping things momentarily for the first time in eighteen months. I'm so in love with Mr. Survival it's unbelievable. We are tighter as a family than we ever have been. I'm stressed and frustrated.  I...

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...
