The Firm and Margaret Richard

Hi Joan,

yes, the fall scenery is what reminded me of it! My legs are already sore.

And, BTW, you lie, you don't look like you are anywhere near 61 - great photo!!!!

Aww, thanks for the sweet comment.

That photo was actually taken today at an apple orchard. I love this time of year!

When I was going through menopause I lived in Iowa at the time & they had on TV every morning a Margaret Richard program. I would do her workout then walk the dog for 30 min. I enjoyed her workouts at that time of my life - less stressful or something. She just seemed to help more with the stress than any other workouts & I looked forward to doing them. In 2005 we moved to Wi. and it is not on here so I bought more of her workouts.

Ideallly, I love to do all three on the same day - cardio, Margaret and Classical Stretch, but unfortunately, most days I don't have that kind of time, so I devised this rotation for myself.

MR = Margaret Richard
CS = Classical Stretch

Day 1 – MR/CS
Day 2 – cardio/CS
Day 3 – cardio/MR
Day 4 - MR/CS
Day 5 - Cardio/CS
Day 6 – cardio/MR
Day 7 – Yoga or other stretch/flexibility

*I expect to do a 30 min MR mixed w/ a CS episode or 30 min of cardio.

Cardio can be whatever I feel ike for the day. I also try to get some extra walks in whenever I can.

I did Triple Threat lower today - I will be sore tomorrow. I just love the outdoor scenery for that one!

Looks like a great rotation! I do the same, use Charlene's cardio primarily. I like her weight workouts too. Leslie would be another good one to combine with Margaret. I have some episodes of CS recorded but haven't tried them. I am lucky enough they air on my local PBS channel.

Joan - I agree with Donna, you don't look 61 at all! Great picture!
