Week 1 Day 2-- AM Start it up!
My butt and inner thighs are a bit sore today...all those squats in stinkin' plié (plee-ay) stance. I hate it but love it at the same time!
Your arms get quite a workout b/c with all the moves, your arms are doing something and they are up for so long.
Should be interesting tomorrow with weights.
So, Start it Up phase is over and tomorrow it will be on to the Ramp it Up phase!!!

PM Basketball game....we won by forfeit but we stayed around to play so I ran for 27 minutes!

Week 1 Day 3-- AM Ramp it Up!
Debbie is kicking my butt!! lol MY butt is stillsore from before. This video is longer and harder than the first one (obviously). I was doing pretty well until she went crazy and tried to get me to do all kinds of leg lifts in a row...she must have been smokin' something! My goal is to be able to do all of them by the end of this tape. We'll see....
Oh, and I better get some killer abs from all the crazy stuff she was making me do in a row! lol

OK......now 8 more reps!

yay i am not suffering alone.

I am restarting RIU. I just could not manage to get it through it consequtively. I am giving it a good faith effort...even if it kills me. Thos extra minutes on RIU are killer but I hear that Burn It UP is even longer. wah wah wah...who has time.

Afternoon Workout:
Week 1 Day 4: Ramp it Up! Workout went a bit better than yesterday. I did a little better with the leg lifts but they still kicked my butt! Noticed today that Debbie doesnt do the ab exercises with us. Damn her!!! She needs to feel the pain, like me!

PM Basketball game--
We usually have like 12 people show up and it is awful. Tonight we had 5 and we rocked! I played really well and we finally won a game! (Ok, we've won 3 but the other 2 were b/c the team forfeited).

My knees are REALLY sore this morning so when Debbie and I workout, a whole lot of stuff is going to be modified!!

PM Workout
Week 1 Day 5: Ramp it Up! My knees are really sore still today but I did the tape surprisingly well. The pliey phase was tough and I couldnt bend that far but everything else was fine. I did better today with the leg lifts! Pretty soon I'll be getting through them all!

Week 2 Day 8: Ramp It Up...harder this morning after a day off. Didn't feel really into it but maybe that's b/c I am working on less than 4 hrs sleep!

Week 2 Day 9: Ramp It Up! Felt unmotivated today but glad I got the workout in anyway.

7-7-04
Week 2 Day 10: Supposed to be Ramp it Up. was going to workout when I got in from kids basketball game but we had to go to Rich's place and clean up so they could show the place today so we didnt get in until midnight. So, extra day off this week. First I felt guilty but now I am happy I took it b/c I was not into the video the past couple times. Worked out this morning and was back into the swing so maybe I needed that extra day. Plus, got exercise in cleaning and moving things in Rich's room.

PM Workout-- Basketball game... we lost in the playoffs by 16. It was actually a really good game and we were down by 2 at half. We started turning the ball over though. I played really well so I was happy. All of a sudden this week I have been kickin' some butt on the court. lol So, the end of summer league went out on a good note.
