Good Morning,
Yesterday I did CE Burn 3. It works the shoulders A LOT
. Tough but good workout. This was my last Burn w/o of the set, so the next time I do weights I'll start back over with Burn 1. I've not really gone very heavy on the weights yet (I've tended to use what the modifier is using, 3-8 lbs), but I'll start to up my poundage moving forward. I know that I won't be able to handle the same weight as Chalene, but I'm curious to see how high I can go with good form.
I also did part of CH Elite: Wild Horse throughout the day to help make my hourly step goals, and Mile 2 of JS's 4 Mile Power Walk last night. The moves in that one are worse than Mile 1.
Repetitive and boring, so most of the time I just did freestyle dancing since I was listening to my own music anyway.
Made it to over 10,200 steps for the day.
Last evening I got together with 2 of the Italy crew. One of them had led a student trip to Copenhagen for 10 days and got back over the weekend, so we got together to hear all about the trip, since she was so busy while they were traveling that she didn't get to text us too often. We each spent time talking about what's been happening in our lives over the last 10 days. It was actually quite nice to spend time together and catch up.
One of them is going to a quilting workshop in Maine at the end of July, and she invited us to join her there after it's over and travel, maybe around New England or up to Canada. I don't have any summer travel plans (I was just going to stay here and try to get my house, office, and life in order), so I think I'm going to join her/them. I think this will give me something exciting to look forward to since I've been feeling a little down and uninspired.
SB - Great job with your outside walk!
Sorry that your rude neighbor woke you up so early!
I really don't understand people who thoughtlessly use loud equipment so early in the morning. I've had a few times where I've gone to bed exhausted on a Friday night, only to be woken up Saturday morning by my neighbor leaf blowing or using some other loud power tool before 9:00 am.
To his credit, he will usually wait until after 8:00 am, but still.
The CE workouts are basically a 3-day split. The Burn Phase workouts range from 33-45 minutes. They are tough but so far, so good.
Have a great day!
