I call myself a FIRM Believer because I love The FIRM. However, my love of The FIRM has expanded to love of other instructors as well. Cathe, Gin Miller, Ilaria Montagnani, Petra Kolber, Classical Stretch, Christi Taylor, Jari Love...to name just a few more of my favorites.

3-Mile Express
The FIRM: Maximum Body Shaping
Leslie 30-Minute
Leslie AHA 1 Mile




Oh, busy day! Not really. One walk in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening.

Now I did lift some weights yesterday and technically one shouldn't do weight days back to back, but yesterday I only used 5-pound weights so I felt okay to do it today. The heaviest I used were 10-pound bells, so I still took it light.

Was a little nervous to do tall-box work. Surprisingly, it caused me NO pain. I think it was slow enough that it didn't cause a problem. Funny, I couldn't do the knee raises and kicks in this workout--nor the Leslie workouts.

The really surprising thing about doing Maximum Body Shaping today is the only thing that caused me pain that I had to stop was the French press. Hubby couldn't believe it, but he picked up some bells and noticed it actually does engage the lower ab area. So, I just didn't do that part. Yesterday's workout had French press but I was sitting. I think that may be how I'll do them from here on out.

I broke 20,000 steps today! Woo-hoo. That is always my goal, except when I've got the pain thing going on--that's when I reduce my goal in half and get there by doing the Tim Conway shuffle.
