October Exercise Video Challenge

Re: October Exercise Video Challenge

I can't wait to whine! I went to wally world tonight and got a step also, that comes with a video, how convenient! I figure I'll use it as part of my workouts, AND count those steps for the stair climbing challenge too! I also got three very simple outfits to work out in the house, basically, a sports bra and some pants that aren't make out of spandex, but man.. they are going to wish they were when I squeeze them on like a second skin! LOL I'm going to start tomorrow on the workouts!

Wow! I had one step class years ago and let me tell you...that is a very good workout!!! Let us know how you do!

Jas- If you decide you don't like step aerobics you can always use the step for a footstool.

Kkat-I've done the Walk/Jog WATP video and like it but my favorite one is the Walk and Kick version. I am thinking about getting the 5-mile one in the near future. A few weeks ago I bought Leslie's pilates video but need to take the shrink wrap off. I will have to do that sometime for this challenge.

Barb- How's Debbie? I plan on bonding with her tomorrow. Ugh!

Funny about the step stool!! Good idea!

I didn't know Leslie had so many styles out. I'll have to check into the kicking, five mile and the pilates DVD. I had a winsor pilates and the last time I did it (about two years ago) I did two workouts in one week and it seemed I lost an inch in my waist. Hum...now that I'm getting back into my exercise I need to get that DVD out too. Thanks for all the helpful info!!

Re: October Exercise Video Challenge

Well, this sounds like an intriguing challenge. I'll do my best to keep posting in here. I have to figure up what I want to do. I am exercising 5-6 times a week now, but only every other day do I do my 4 mile WATP with elliptical. The other days I do treadmill and elliptical.

I guess that might put me at 2-3 times a week for videos. I'll do some math and come back and post it.

Okay, I'll confess too ... I have several Richard Simmons' videos and may have to pull them out for this too. They are actually good workouts if only he wouldn't sing along!!

I just decided to do the math now. I'll commit to AT LEAST 10 times of WATP. That will be a pretty good average for me, especially since I'll be gone for four days next week and the week after.

Changing my siggy ........... see ya!!

Hey Nana!

Glad you could join us!

Any workouts videos will do...anything to burn calories and get our metabolisms roaring!!

Woo Hoo! This increase in activity may make us a size smaller by the end of the month!

LOL Boxermom. That's exactly what my "fanny lifter" has been. A step stool/catch all.

Debbie is... ! I haven't been away from her THAT long dangit! And doing Jazzercise 3x a week STILL doesn't take away that Pixie's PAIN! My *** hurts this morning!

Oh, I added a little bug to my siggie so if anyone wants to use it for the challenge, please feel free to copy it or edit however you want.

Thanks, Jess!

Yes, I think you have enough activity to hold you over with the hiking and biking!! Your poor muscles!!

I'm glad you stopped in to spread your cheer! Pop in anytime!

Re: October Exercise Video Challenge

Re: October Exercise Video Challenge

I'm sure my workout this afternoon will go fine, it's the not being able to get out of bed in the morning after I shock my poor muscles that I'm worried about!

Won't stop me though, a little pain = gain (or loss)!
