Guest guest Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 5 degrees? You are dedicated, Gurl! I would have walked with instead, but if I had someone like Chinook to walk with that would be different, I suppose. I forgot about P90X stretch. I may need to do that one soon! Thanks for the down-low on this! Hugs, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL i wear lots of gear... only my cheeks and nose get cold. and while it was cold this morning, there was no wind, so it was quite do-able. the wind can be brutal... i dont like it if it is over 25-30 km/hr (16-19 mph).... which it is supposed to be tomorrow, actually. the good thing though is that it will be a south wind that will bring warm weather here next week. i thought that P90X stretch was well done... i hope that you do give it a go sometime. donna, do you ever do that one in your p90x rotation? :*carolyn.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 fffffffffive degrees during the day? Oh my.the P90X stretch sounds yummyVennittaOn Jan 3, 2008 12:39 PM, Festival City Concrete/ & Carolyn Visser < pvisser@...> wrote: hiya! today's workout consisted of a 57 min walk with chinook... wow, it is so cold out!! 5 degrees fahrenheit (-15 celcius). i almost had an asthma attack at first because of breathing in that icy air. but i pulled my face mask up and that helped alot. ended up burning a bit more calories than usual, because of the cold air i assume. (335 cals) after walking i did P90X Stretch with tony horton, which is 60 mins long and a fabulous routine! a mixture of athletic stretching and yoga, static and (what tony calls) ballistic stretching. however, he uses the term incorrectly... it is not ballistic, but dynamic stretching (arm swings, for example... and not bouncing movements). static stretches are held for a minimum of 30 seconds... some are held for a full 60 seconds. a nice variety of stretches and the full body is done, even the wrists and ankles! tony says a few amusing things, but he is not annoying at all in this workout. his backgrounders are excellent... one woman is so very flexible, it is amazing, so she shows more advanced modifications. the muscular guy in the back holds back a bit so he can demonstrate some modifications for the less flexible. another pleasant woman does the workout as is. my core was a bit sore and i felt a bit of sciatic pain while walking this morning, so i knew that a good long stretch was in order. and now, all of my pain is gone, i have full RoM and feel great!! this workout is highly recommended for intermediates and above (NOT for beginners!). another 162 cals :*carolyn. _ -- Get Fit!
