Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Ya'll can have all this cold back! I'm in rainy (thankfully still to far south for snow) south Georgia in the high 20's and freezing my butt off! On the good side, I could stand to lose a little of the JLo Booty.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 We're at 5 degrees right now, expecting a low of 3. Wind chill is 15 below. When I went downstairs to my basement to set up a portable heater (hubby had to do some work down there) it was at 53 degrees. That's what my workout room down there probably was too but Tony got me warm enough to workout in yoga pants and a jogging bra (I can wear shorts when I do cardio but I have to warm up with pants and a sweatshirt on). I don't really mind snow but this kind of cold weather is not my thing (and yes, I know it gets a LOT colder elsewhere, needless to say I won't be moving to any of those places until global warming heats them up more).

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 But I have to ask, why do ya'll continue to live in such cold climates? I'm just completely dumbfounded as to why someone would want to live in an area that gets so cold where we live is our home, has been for 37 years of my life. Picking up and moving isn't so easy especially when you own homes and have jobs of 15 years.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Ditto. Plus, as much as I hate the bitter cold, I love the changing seasons and would miss even the extremes.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Our furnace doesn't do much to our basement (actually our furnace doesn't do much to a lot of our house, it is over 30 years old, like the house). I use a space heater down there when I'm going to be down there not moving around much for more than a little while. I was sweating during P90 Cardio 3-4 today though, without the space heater on!

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hi, I didn't really want to workout, but since I did chest and back this week doing the two Amy Bento workouts, I wanted to get the other muscles groups in before starting up with next week. I also didn't get that much ab work in so I wanted to do that... so before starting the upper body I did Body Max 2 abs. I haven't done this one too many times. I actually liked it. Its also nice to do ab work FIRST. I always forget to do it first, but for some reason I remembered this time. I finally got my workouts planned. Now, I just hope I can stick with them since I'm doing them on my own without following someone's rotation. Anyway, I did the combo using Amy Bento's workouts All Pump Xtreme and Slo-Mo. I did shoulders, biceps, and triceps. Here's how it went. Shoulders Slo-Mo- overhead press (bar bell) 30 lbs (2 sets) 25 lb (1 set) cuban press (DB) 10 lbs ( 3 sets) APX- upright row (body bar) 12 lb ( 2 sets) throw backs (tubing) Biceps APX- biceps curls (body bar, tubing) incline bicep curls- 12 lbs ( 3 sets) Slo-mo- Bicep bonfire- 8 lbs (3 sets) incline bicep curls (she used tubing, but I used 12 lb DB) 3 sets Triceps Slo-mo- lying tricep extensions- 25 lb ( 3 sets) APX- kickbacks 10 lbs ( 3 sets) *should've went heavier here* single arm overhead press (she used the tubing, but I used a 10 lb Slo-mo- dips ( 3 sets) I did straight legs off 5 risers instead of being on the floor... and really felt that. I really liked this combo. I felt pretty worked after each muscle group. The triceps I think I fell a little short on, but maybe I'll do this combo again and go heavier with that area. I'll take tomorrow as my rest day and do nothing (well workout wise anyway) I hope you all are enjoying your weekend. ~*~~*~Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Hi , Nice upper body mix! Here's a silly question - do you use a multi-disc dvd player and just switch between the two discs? Or do you take them out manually each time? Or did I totally misunderstand and you the slo-mo shoulders, bi, and tri followed by the APX shoulders, bi, and tri? Just curious. Hope you had a nice 4th.
