february 2022…

STS/LIS Undulating Rotation - Week 13 of 14

1. STS D7 M1 W3 - Chest, Shoulders & Biceps + Yv2: WISI, 15mins. Love D7 and all the multiple push-ups. I did all the push-ups on my basement stairs, lowest riser & 2nd lowest riser. Not as hard but still felt in right muscles.
2. Yv2: WISI, 13mins + LIS: Turbo Barre Lower Body Express Premix + ZUMBA JTP: 20 Minute Express. Snow, snow and more snow.
3. LIS Afterburn Double Trouble Premix (minus c/d) + Afterburn Single Intervals 1-10 Express Premix (minus w/u), approx 74 minutes. High energy day. Matched Cathe’s weight the first round, and dropped to the next interval weight for round 2 and then again for round 3. Sweatfest. I’ve done Afterburn with the music for a few sessions lately and I’m going to backtrack a little on the music, it’s not bad. Could be due to my PowerBeat wireless earphones, everything sounds better with these. Afternoon: Shovel Max… looked out my window an hour later and the driveway was covered with snow again, and the snow plow came back around as soon as I was done and left another small hill of snow at the end of my driveway. Burn.
4. STS D8 M1 W3 - Back & Triceps + PATRICIA MORENO: Kickbox CCT - Core Energizer, 25mins. Great combo. Snow has stopped, very cold and sunny day! Had to do about 30 minutes of shoveling to clean up my drive way.
5. I placed my Cathe equipment order this morning. I ordered barbell clips, 2# micro load gloves, camo boxing gloves, weight lifting gloves (for DD), and the weight lifting gloves with wrist support.. Still haven’t bought a new Fitbit yet, the reviews for the Charge 5 are not that great, so been holding out, waiting for the Charge 6. (S) CATHE: Rockout Knockout + ZUMBA Power (v), 42 mins. Loved Zumba Power. There’s a 10 min Zumba Kids workout on this as well. The kids are so cute!
6. LIS: Athletic Training Cardio Legs Timesaver Premix, 35mins + ZUMBA: Step (v). Loved Zumba Step. P.M. Prevention: Dance Yourself Thin (v). The workout is good for easy, no sweat, step boosting. Kept my interest and once I memorize the routine, will be great with my own music, 41 minutes, 4100+ steps.
7. rest day…

STS/LIS Undulating Rotation - Week 14 of 14!!!


8. LIS: Trisets Upper Body - Chest, Shoulders & Triceps Timesaver Premix, 30 mins + JENNIFER GALARDI: Dance Off the Inches Hip Hop Party, 41mins (v). This was my first time doing a Jennifer Galardi workout and I liked it a lot. Not too challenging, still interesting, and it made me sweat. Perfect step booster workout!
9. STS D35 M3 W4 - Plyo Legs + ZUMBA JTP: Zumba Live, 54mins (v). Beto is fine, fine, fine!!! My sister sent me the Zumba Live DVD along with a few other ZUMBA dvds that she found in the back of a drawer. I had been looking at this Zumba Live on eBay, deciding if I was going to buy it, or not. I’m glad I didn’t. Apparently my sister has the Join the Party set but she doesn’t know what she did with the DVDS. She is not a vidiot, lol. How dare she throw her workouts in a drawer all willy nilly, still in those cardboard boxes. My Cathe fitness items should be delivered today!
10. (S)CATHE: Low Impact Circuit (- core/stretch) + LIS; Tri-sets Upper Body - Back/Biceps/Core (- w/u). I subbed LIC for Slide & Glide. LIC was so fun, I had forgotten how good the music is plus I love seeing Cathe wearing the sash. No way I could get away with that. A sweat fest. My Cathe stuff was delivered yesterday. DD loves her gloves and was so excited to get them. Everything is super cute and of good quality.
11. (S) ICE: Rock’m Sock’m Scrambled Premix #1 71.5mins. Awesome premix, really enjoyed this!
12. LIS: Cardio Supersets + Yv2: SS. 14 Weeks completed !!!!!!!!. I really enjoyed this rotation. My results:
Chest - 2.25”
Waist - 2”
Hips -1.5”
Thighs - 1”
Arms -1”
Weight - 13.2#’s
Most of the weight loss has been since I rejoined WW ( -8.8#’s since 1/10/22). I am slightly stronger. Happy with my progress and looking forward to H&C. P.M. Yv2: RIO
13. ZUMBA JTP: 20 Minute Express + CRUNCH: Cardio Dance Party (v) P.M. PATRICIA MORENO: Dance CCT, 15mins (v) + Yv2: WISI
14. …rest day…

15. KATINA HUNTER: Interval Party
16. RWH: Hiit Circuit - Upper Body + WW Easy Grooves. P.M. Yv2: MYB.
17. Yv2: RIO + Yv2: SS. Rain, freezing rain, snow, very cold… boo hiss!
18. RWH: Hiit Circuit Lower Body + ZUMBA: Rush
19. ICE: Rock’m Sock’m (minus stretch) + FIT|SPLIT: Just Boxing Bootcamp Premix

Hammer & Chisel Rotation - Week 1

20. H&C: Chisel Balance, 41mins + LITE: Rev’d Up Rumble, 41mins. Looking back at my H&C worksheets, I did this workout the most of all the H&C workouts. I think I only lasted about 3 weeks when I did the H&C rotation but I’m too lazy to go back and do the research. Anyway, Chisel Balance starts out with a static warm up on 1 knee. I was thinking maybe I should have done a pre-warm up but then when we got to the actual start of the workout, I felt warmed up. I lol at a comment Autumn made early into the workout when she asked one of the backgrounders how he was doing and he was already falling apart. Hit my funny bone for some reason. I’m interested to see how much my balance improves these next few weeks. I didn’t want to do some exercises (like renegade row leg lift) but I felt good when done. My FitBit said that I was in the fat burning stage 83% of the workout.
21. Ilaria Montagnani: Forza (v) - I really enjoyed this workout. After I felt confident enough that I wasn’t going to destroy my ceiling, I was able to focus on the form pointers provided by Ilaria and really get into it. Felt it in my core and upperbody. All low impact, (well there was 1 set of jumping into a plie squat but it was short and a modification was shown), surprisingly meditative and a sweatfest. It’s a 60 min workout but it didn’t drag, for me. Felt like a righteous bad@$$ when we did the diagonal samurai squat into a diagonal chop with a hold move. . Also my legs are so sore from Chisel Balance. After doing a load of laundry and a little housework, I did Yv2: MYB. P.M. Yv2: SS
22. RWH: Upper Body Circuit w/u + H&C: Hammer Plyometrics + ZUMBA JTP: 20 Minute Express. I will not be doing Hammer Plyometrics again, boring. It made me sweat but still boring. Even my notes from 2016 said to use 21 Day Plyo Fix or RWH Lo or High Impact Hiit next time.
23. Recovery Day: Si6: Slim & Limber. Love!
24. H&C: ISO Strength Chisel, 35mins + ZUMBA: Exhilarate, 59 mins. ISO Strength Chisel was surprisingly tough. I reached failure on a couple of exercises and it burned like crazy. 10 slow reps followed by a 10 second hold x3. No cooldown & a 21 sec stretch at the end of the workout.
25. H&C: Chisel Agility, 38 mins + ZUMBA JTP: Zumba Live, 54mins. I probably won’t do Chisel Agility again. Autumn talks way too much and I thought the workout was just ok, too much down time while Autumn explains/shows the next move. The moves are not complicated.
26. Wildcard Day - CL: Love Me Some Kickbox + 4DS: Kickboxing Premix, 37 mins. Also set up my new iPhone. Easiest activation and set up ever. Thankful for that.
27. ICE: Metabolic Total Body + ZUMBA: Dance, Dance, Dance. P.M. YV2:SS
28. rest day…

Tuesday, the 1st of February

Had a big start.
Caught a break in the rain, for a 45min dog walk - rain sent us home sooner than our usual outing, then
74min, Cathe - Intensity Series - Terminator - Imax Extreme
Yes, did it again, but all at once, 6", and it was NOT tragic this time.
Feeling very pleased with myself.

Wednesday, 2nd
• 45min, Tom Holland - Supreme 90 - Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps
Quite boring, though had sore triceps the next day. Obvious needed to have gone heavier on chest & shoulders!
• 30min, dog walk
Rain cut it short
• 53min, Les Mills - Body Jam 55
Was just ok. These aren't my 'thing'. I just do them because I have them - knocking of virgins. VERY OLD virgins!

Thursday, 3rd
• 30min, dog walk
rain, again, shortened it
• 69min, Cathe - Intensity Series - Terminator - Gauntlet
Last time did it in pieces. Not satisfied to cross it off my Cathe Chrono mission that way. It wasn't as nasty all at once as I'd expected, and survived Imax Extreme better on Tuesday as well, so the final of the Intensity Series (Viper) holds much less dread - it'll need to be tomorrow. Since I stalled (with dread) for SOOOO long about the 3 Terminator workouts, now I need to do a Cathe Chrono every 2nd day if I want to finish all of them by the time I turn 60, which is actually a good thing - perfect for STS as the set is essentially a rotation meant to be done every other day; and I have no stalling time left.

ETA
Friday
• 45min, dog walk
expected to be sent home with more rain, was lucky to get 45min in - it TEEMED down again about 10min after we got home.
• 28min, Men's Health - BJ Gaddour - Delta Fit - HEAT - Sweat & Stretch
The jokes would become tireseome if this was done repeatedly, but good to use my under-used rumble roller
• 14min, Tony Horton - P90 One-on-One - Apres Ski Stretch
Felt homey as it was with a friend in their hotel-room at the ski fields

Saturday
• 46min, Cathe - ICE - Low Impact Sweat
quite challenging, started step section at 8", but about half way, switched down to 6"
• 15min, dog walk
good decisions - to go to the park just up the road, & to leave when felt a cool stiff breeze arrive. Moments after getting home - sprinkled, then just a few minutes later - a torrent! Had we gone to the official doggie park, we wouldnt' have made it back without being soaked.

Viper was scheduled for today & intended to do it between DH leaving (normally ~10am) and buddy workout (normally easier & early evening) but DH didn't leave until noon & buddy wanted early afternoon, and requested a tougher one.
Still have Sunday for Viper before next scheduled Chrono of Step Blast for Monday. I'm feeling SO motivated for this Cathe mission lately.
