Monk, this just made my day! I can't stop laughing! :D
*Dancin' around* *Dancin' around' :throwhearts:

[RawHealthyBeauty]

Not at all, happy to share!! :)

This is the book I go by. Facebuilding: The Daily 5-Minute Program for a Beautiful, Wrinkle-Free Face by Reinhold Benz (20 exercises total for face and neck) Had it for at least ten years now. It works!!

I just do many reps as I want with a good 1 sec hold in between, then after doing all the reps, I hold the move as long as I want with all my might. This is my own modification to my liking on doing these exercises

I think exercisng the face/neck is the best way besides eating raw food to maintain the true appearance of the face.

The snow is up to my chest when I look out my window. I had to shovel a path for my dog this morning and it took me an hour to only go about 15 feet. I will be shoveling snow ALL day so that will be my movement here on this blizzardy Ground Hog Day.

Snow drifts by my house, neighborhood are taller than me.

Over 66,000 comEd customers without electricity lastnight, thank the Lord I was not one of them.

OnMyJourney Woooooooooo-Hoooooooooo, Girlfriend! You're on a roll! Keep it up!

Yesterday: 1.5hrs of Yoga (exploring new types and loving it) Wheew. I'm hurting so good right now. I also went on a 40min walk with my doggie in the freezing cold with two pairs of sweatpants, two pairs of socks, two sweaters and it was great! I am really enjoying these daily walks!

Today: It will be nice, sunny and 40 degrees. Looking forward to today's walk... Then, GYM tonight!

So... this weekend I will start doing that YogaX (Thanks, Monk & OnMyJourney:throwhearts:). I've had this DVD ALL this time in my "to go through" folder... Can you believe that? LOL!

[OnMyJourney]

Hey Everyone!! :throwhearts:

Delise - I'm trying! I'm trying!

Keep moving and shaking, RAWking and rolling! :dance:

[RawHealthyBeauty]

Hey Monk!!! :heart

I was looking at all kinds of pictures of really advanced yoga poses today in one of my athlete catalog I got in the mail today. Do you know what types of yoga that get really advance in the movements. I just thought it really intriguing!! I think it would be really awesome to do really advance stuff in yoga. Yoga is growing on me.... :throwhearts:

Well, I kicked butt again on P90X today doing the Back, Legs, and Abs! :woot:

Go Everyone Go!!! :cheer:

Hey Whoa!
I'm not sure there's just one specific "type" of yoga that can get more advanced....just look for "advanced" classes, or dvds - I think gaiam has some....I haven't done any, so I don't have any recommendations.....I have been taught the advanced poses, but really don't use them at the YMCA, because the classes are generally full of newer memebers & they will want to "do" whatever you show....so, I am very cautious of what I teach....;)

Great job with your P90X!!!!

[OnMyJourney]

Hellooooooo everyone! Looking good in here!!! :woohoo:

Got up this morning and began Week 2, Day 1 of P90X!! OH YEA!!! :woot: Today was Core Synergistics!! Woooooo, was that a workout?!! I felt stronger than I did the first time (which was awesome)...but I've got a ways to go yet!

I LOVE this program, I feel AWESOME!!! :excited:

In regard to the yoga discussion...I've become intrigued with hot yoga or Bikram yoga. I'm currently exploring the option.



GREAT job everyone! Keep RAWking and Moving! RAWking and Moving!! :cheer:

15 side bend crunches, each side
15 vertical crunches
15 side oblique crunches, each side

I have been trying out these new videos. Gaiam's "Power Yoga Total Body Workout" and then I jump into others. Just experimenting and seeing what I like. :woohoo: Wheew. Still got a long way to go. My BF got me a bunch of DVD's in that was YogaX. :woot: Good stuff! Lovely Yoga may, BTW!

I forgot to list my Tuesday movement.....
Teaching/doing my 1hr yoga class.....oh....and some shoveling in the beginning of the week.....:rolleyes:

I will be teaching my yoga class tonight as well.....

Does "shivering" count as "movement"?.....lol
Cuz I've been doing that ALL week.....:cold:

[OnMyJourney]

Hey everyone!! I forgot to list my Tuesday night as well monk.

Tuesday night was Yoga X, it was alright. Not a big fan of most of it. But I love the second half, Royal Dancer rocks my socks off! :woot:

Last night was Legs & Back, Ab Ripper X. I BROUGHT IT! Was sweating buckets and muscles were burning like CRAZY. Worked myself right into a MASSIVE charlie horse which ended my workout prematurely. Missed about the last 5 mins of ab ripper ex, floor exercises with legs which worked lower abdominals. My whole lower right leg seized up, though I pushed through for a little while, my body brought me to a screeching halt!

Otherwise, it was an AWESOME work out and I was sooo proud of myself...up until that moment.

Tonight is Kenpo X, one of my FAVORITES!! So even though my leg is still sore, I'm doing my Kenpo gosh darn it! :dance:

Have a great day everyone!!! I love this thread...have I mentioned that?? :throwhearts::throwhearts:

Got my core synergistics work out completed late last night. It totally slipped away from me until bed time. 11pm rolls around, only to realize I hadn't done my work out yet. No sleepie til I've had my rendez-vous with Tony, so off to P90X I went. Finished around midnight and was then so amped up that i couldn't get to sleep until after 2. Yep...I'm ready to go home right now. :o:p But I'm really proud of myself for not skipping it!


Keep RAWking and moving everyone!

I was doing squats just over a week ago and my DOMS has finally cleared but i have a doctors appointment tonite so cant go to the gym :-(

The nutrients im taking in just arent getting into my system :-( I have no idea why. I suspect thats why I had DOMS for so long. my body was trying to repair and I had nothing to repair with!

I think I need more nuts and seeds and things as well as some grains... its all too hard.

Other than my resistance training going badly I have been walking at the beach every night mmmm beach.

[DawnD]

Yea! I finally got to move! I've been doing Barrys Boot Camp. Monday was Upper body and abs. Tues was Lower body. Today jumped on the trampoline and abs. Found some good 80s music on Sirus to move to.

I hope to be a regular here just to keep me accountable.

You are Rawkin' it girlfriend!!!! WooHoo!!!

I was doing squats just over a week ago and my DOMS has finally cleared but i have a doctors appointment tonite so cant go to the gym :-(

The nutrients im taking in just arent getting into my system :-( I have no idea why. I suspect thats why I had DOMS for so long. my body was trying to repair and I had nothing to repair with!

I think I need more nuts and seeds and things as well as some grains... its all too hard.

Other than my resistance training going badly I have been walking at the beach every night mmmm beach.
Welcome Kindred!!
Can you please tell me what "DOMS" is?
How lovely - walking on the beach....sounds like paradise!!~
Glad to have you here!!! (((Hugs)))~monk~

Wow - you MUST be working out hard - breaking springs!!!:trampoline::heart

Thanks for the well wishes for my hamstring!
It was still sore in a couple of the positions tonight, but seemed to get better with movement~:coolbanana

Good idea about starting in the kitchen for our Abs!!!
I'm thinking about just having some fruit for supper tonight.....:eat
What about you Dawn?

OH YEAHHHHHH! :dance:

Glad your hamstring is better, Monk! :backhug I'm sure by tomorrow it will be back to normal. My hamstrings are the first thing to go sore when I exercise . I always have to make sure that I am stretching and working my Quads, calves and hamstrings all together.

Woke up late this morning :duh and couldn't make it to the gym. I did wake up early enough to do 30mins of Yoga, 10mins of Pilates Abs, 2 sets of push ups and 20mins of meditation. I will go for a jog/walk during my lunch break. Playing it by ear and seeing how I'm feeling this afternoon - Maybe I'll go to the gym tonight for weightlifting. Busy day tomorrow!

I am going on a juice 30-day modified juice feast next week and am getting the ball rolling this weekend. I am planning on staying active for at least 5/7 days every week. Maybe I'll start a thread for that. Should be pretty awesome.
:woohoo:


Keep RAWkin' and Movin'!

[DawnD]

Me and Barry did Upper Body and Advanced Upper. I think I will walk up to my dad tomorrow and have him grab my arm and tell him to Check it out! He made us work on our property a lot when I was young. I just want him to know I still got it (or I am gettin it back) HooAh!

Dinner was a little too much raw pizza but I am done eatin for the night. Monk I have not graduated to just fruit for dinner but definately something to think about. Thanks.

Tomorrows workout will be bending, squatting, filing, answering phone, sit stand sit stand, walk walk walk. Working at the bookkeeping service on Saturdays during tax season. I was sore from last Saturday. I couldn't believe it.

Have a great weekend!

[BlackKat]

Looks like everyone is doing good. I did a 40 minute bike workout and then some very light beginner yoga. Yoga was early this morning. Wow, I can't believe how much little use I was getting out of my hamstrings. They are feeling a bit sore from the stretching but it's wonderful to feel muscles that I am normally oblivious to. haha

Lol - you are too cute "Me and Barry" - love it! hahaha - like 2 best buds working out together~

Did you tell your dad to feel your guns?! lol

Mmmmm raw pizza....do you have a recipe to share?
Lol - I have not "graduated" to just fruit for supper either.....just went with what my body wanted in that moment is all.....and it happened to be an ENTIRE canteloupe!!! :eat

Have fun at work!!!
I really need to get my taxes ready......lol

Hey BlackKat!!
Great job getting a nice, long bike ride in AND yoga!!!
Did you go to a class, or do a dvd?
I love sharing yoga stuff~:wuv

[monkapotapus]

So.....I made a decision yesterday......

I want to include exercise/movement into each day....even if it's only 10min.....I've gone through these "yearnings" before and I'm going to go with it again.....:woohoo:

So, today is my 1st day & I did a 30 min Baron Baptiste "Live Core Yoga" workout dvd....it was good - lots of ab stuff.....my belly could use that!! :heart

I also did about 10 min of reiki for myself when I was done~

Hooray!!
Here's to Day 1 of meeting my personal goal~:excited::meditating:

Monk~ What a good idea you have there! If everyone could just dedicate 10 minutes to movement I think the world would be a happier healthier, more peaceful place. Anyone that says they don't have 10 minutes really needs to re-assess their lifestyle and find some time! Work-aholics, social gatherings, etc. Of course we all have things that cannot be pushed aside and need to be done but 10 minutes is totally do-able and a good goal to start out with. Good luck with your new personal goal!

As for me I "tried" some more yoga today. I am using a Gaiam dvd for beginners w/ Rodney Yee i think his name is, and another Yoga for Beginners dvd with several different routines, but for now I'm just doing what I can and not overdoing it with the more difficult poses.

I didn't realise how STIFF my body is.... My goal is to increase strength and flexibility as well as incorporate meditation and breathing exercise into my daily routine. If anyone has any suggestions on good yoga dvds/books/material let me know!!:throwhearts:

I road my bike for 40 minutes today, and 30 minutes of yoga. Today is a good day.

Thank you!! I agree whole-heartedly!!! :heart

Your body will loosen up the more yoga you do - I see it all the time in the classes I teach - I will get someone new to yoga & they are not too flexible...they show up for a couple times per week & a month later they are telling me the moves/poses they can now do!! It's awesome!!!

I'll see what I can find in my yoga "library" for suggestions~:throwhearts:

[DawnD]

I have a couple Yoga Booty Ballet dvds. They are not straight yoga but have some weight work, dancing etc. They are a real good workout and challenging and fun. I will be using those dvds in my March challenge.

I like the idea of moving at least 10 min/day it thats all you got. I do squats at the printer and fax (when I am alone in the office) cannonball crunches, leg lifts etc. I also have an exercise band (like a large rubberband) tucked away in my drawer at work to do upper body exericses. Just need to use it!

Didn't ask Dad to check out the guns. He was too intense yesterday. He does taxes and yesterday was corporate taxes. yikes! He will get a kick out of it when I do. We have lots of fun.

I have a busy day today. I will put in at least 10 minutes!

Hey Dawn!!
I have some Yoga booty ballet dvds too, but I haven't tried them yet....

I like how you are incorporating movement into your work day!! That's Awesome!! :dance:

I'm sure your dad will be very proud of your guns!! lol

I help DBF with his business taxes too....ahhhh.....we just did his state sales tax for Jan.....we still have to go through last year & itemize everything....this takes forever....lol....good thing I liked accounting in high school!!

[monkapotapus]

Okay, so today I decided to turn my "everyday movement/exercise" into a 30 Day personal Challenge for myself!!

I just got done doing a Leslie Sanson "Walk away the Pounds" dvd for my Day 2......it was called "Get Up and Get Started"....1 mile = 20min.....:heart

Anyone else want to join me in a 30 Day Challenge?....maybe we should start it on Tuesday & have it be for the entire month of March!!! :woohoo:

Who's with me?! :trampoline:

Just do some movement for at least 10min per day......easy peasy!!:excited:

[DawnD]

I'm in for the 30 Day Move-For-10 Challenge. Maybe I can get my husband to join in. He HAS to start doing some focused exerise. His HDL is Dangerously low...22mg/dl...get out...I dont know how that happened. Its supposed to be at least 40mg/dl and be over 60mg/dl to be optimum. 18 months ago his cholesterol was 206 and now its 179 but the HDL is awful. Anyway...

Pop in and press play on the Yoga Booty Ballet! Have fun with Ti and Gillian. They're cool.

Hey Monk, my grandmother was a bookkeeper and my dad a CPA. I knew what April 15th was at 7 years old. Crazy!

Im gonna try to do something for 10 mins tonight. :woohoo:

It will be awesome if you can get your hubby in on the fun & help raise his good cholesterol!! :excited:

(Adding good fiber into his diet will also help lower the bad & raise the good)

Even just taking a short walk together - nothing big & orchestrated....just simple movement!!

Lol @ 7yrs knowing what April 15th means!! lol

I'll have to take a look at how long the yoga booty dvds are....I'm going to try to get up a little early each day & get it in right away, so I don't have any excuses not to do it after I get home from a long day at work.... ;)

[monkapotapus]

Monday 2/28/11~

Day 3 of my 30 Day Fitness Challenge :woohoo:

It was early, so I did the same workout dvd I did yesterday, so I didn't have to think too much about it....lol :heart

Get up and Get Moving - 1 mile - 20min - Walk Away the Pounds

Hooray - my workout is already in for the day!!!!:dance:

Yoga Booty Ballet Basic after work today. Did some squats, leg lifts, upper body stuff with the exercise band, leg extensions while on infernal hold with a call at work today. Hope no one saw me. eeek!

I am getting stronger. Two weeks ago I couldn't hold myself in caturanga (sp) at the bottom of a push up. Today I could. Woot!! I have gotten so weak in the last year while I was away. Barry is a good man!! Makes me strong.

I love Spring. aahhh...

[effortlessvegan]

I'd like to join the post. I was exercising regularly and was feeling great but then life got in the way and I'm starting over. It's not that I don't have enough equipment for variety. Anyway I started yesterday with rebounding for 10 minutes, ball exercises and kettlebell swings.
My big hurdle is I'm up early to first start feeding the animals ( 8 cats, 2 dogs, 2 ponies) then I need top prep for breakfast for guests at our B & B. My downfall is I go into the office and check my mail and then I get wrapped up in one thing after another.

So I now shut my computer down at night and so far it's worked well.
Today I did 20 minute upper body ball workout with weights.
