Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

kkat, I split my workouts to both morning and night. For example, I usually workout on the treadmill or the stationary bike, do abs, and stretch in the morning. In the late afternoon, I'll do an aerobics tape and/or lift weights, and then stretch again. This is the schedule that works best for me, but it took awhile until I found what "fits."

Hubby & I can't wait to start the challenge tomorrow!

Good luck everyone!

Brook, who exactly are the Ya Yas? I keep seeing the site referred to, but haven't been able to find it.

Barbde, I'm right there with you with TOM coinciding with the beginning of this challenge. What fun! I've already gained nearly 2 inches in my waist from water retention. Grrrr . . .

The YaYa's are on ezboard. Their handle is bfirmbelivers . You need a ezboard account (a freebie is fine) and you have to "apply" for membership. - No biggie. They have incredible review and swap boards!

TOM will be clubbing me over the head on Friday. Joy. Ohhh joy.

Kat- I have lost a size almost every time I've gone through a rotation- this last one (half @ssed as it may have been) included. I was bordering on a 10, and am an 8 again

Losin- I'm a firm believer that a good heart rate moniter is a great investment and a solid tool! The formula for target heart rate is a rough one, but it's a great place to start. I figured out, with some time, where I feel best when I work out. My HR has my upper and lower limits set at 121-161. I generally workout at 145-175 and feel just fine doing so. I do think they gauge calorie consumption better because they're tailored to you (height/weight/age/HR/etc). When I post my workouts, I almost always post my HR stats too. It'll be interesting to see how yours come out too!

Kat: I lost most of my inches around my back (bra strap area) and tummy...not enough to go down a size, but my work pants and jeans are loser...I'll take that!

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

my clothes are definitely looser. Althoguh I haven't been working out the past couple of weeks*hangs head sheepishly* I think my fat is still moving around because I have gotten more compliments than ever! at least more people than ever noticing I am losing weight! I haven't lost more than a couple of pounds in the past 3 months but the inches are still coming off! And like I said more people can tell than ever! And I am loving it! LOL...

Dear hubby was a real sport and helped me take my body measurements. Scary! I can't wait for 42 days to be over with! I know I'll lose some inches!!

I'm doing the Turbo Jam in the evening because my daughter wants to do it with me and I can't see getting a twelve-year-old up at 4:30 to do a workout.

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

I am normally an early morning workout person, but I am not ready for it yet this morning! After I get the guys out of here, I'll be at it!

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Heres what i have on my dvd Learn and Burn 25min, 20 min work out, turbo sulpt 40min, ad jam 40min, and cardio party 45min. I havnt gotten to the post office to pick up my SI6, but when i do i will compare the workouts. I just want to know am i missing something or did i get the right thing. Also as my free gift with turbo jam i got the yoga booty ballet ab work out, did anyone else reieve this and are we supposed to use this video too. sorry if i am too confusing

Qiana- Looks like you don't have the Cardio Party 2 or the Lower Body Jam? I would just use the Cardio Party 1 in place of the Cardio Party 2; And then just throw in another TJ for the lower body jam.

I did Mix it Up! Well, except the last 10 minutes of the video doesn't play. So I am going to throw in Slim & 6 pack. Delivery is here so that will have to wait a few minutes!!!
OMG! My ARMS!

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Qiana--I believe the Cardio Party 2 and Lower Body Jam were an add on feature to the Turbo Jam series. I think it was an extra $19.95 or $29.95. When I ordered the set, I paid for the extra DVDs, but I did NOT receive a Yoga Booty Ballet DVD. Have you tried that workout yet? I've heard it's a fun workout!

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Hello All,

Brooke, I would like to join this challenge. I'm new to the forum and this is exactly what I need..some accountability!! It just so happen that I orderd the TJ videos last week so they should be in this week. I know I will be starting late, but I will like to jump in as soon as I get them..in the meantime, I can do some other type of exercise.

**Brook** · January 9, 2006, 06:47 AM

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Sounds fabulous, MyQuest!!

Way to go, Barb! You've got your first dancing pickle!

After I get the girls off to school I'm crawling back in bed for a bit. When I get up, I'm taking on the Squat ****. Oyyy!

Re: ~*~*~Vidiot's House of Pain -Part Deux!~*~*~

Ramp it Up completed! I didn't have Tear It UP, so I improvised. My arms are shaking so bad I can barely type. I feel really good about completing this first workout!

btw, my daughter grabbed my butt the other day (I hope I don't sound like a perverted family here) and she said my butt is so tight she can't believe it!
