yesterday i did cathe's body max 2 step cardio. i did the 3 segments which break down combos then i did the bonus cardio which runs through all 3 combos twice without breakdowns. it was fun to learn fun to do and the music was really motivating to the moves in this one. its not a big break away from cathe's stuff but different enough from her other stuff. lots of going around the step so its tricky but cathe fans like it that way,b/c cathe cues well so you can catch on. but she doesn't break it down TOO much for you. just enough to learn it and move on then takes it from the top until you have gotten all the combos.my only issue is there isn't much of a cool down if you are only doing the step portion. i am sure there is an adequate cool down in the power circuits b/c that is the last of the cardio but i couldn't find it in the menu(only skimmed while marching in place to cool down). the stretch does all the body as oppose to some of her others which only focus on the lower body and a little back. thats when i really felt what jari's workout did to me the day before LOL. my triceps were so sore in a good way. i have to try the premixes on this dvd though. its such a verstaile workout.
today i was motivated to try some cardio instead of my yoga/abs(although i will work hard to get to that later). to be fair i was giving crunch super charged kickbox party another shot. i was still feeling a bit awkward with some moves but was starting to enjoy it more when my husband decides to interupt. gggrrrrrr i could kill him, he knows i just freeze(part of my anxiety) when he walks into the room and i am doing any sort of cardio(other then wii fit LOL). weights,pilates,yoga, playing the wii all fine and comfortable with but i don't know why i freeze like statue with cardio. i must have looked silly with the dance moves in this dvd so i was probably frozen with embarressment too. i managed 17 minutes before i got interuppted. the workout,however, didn't have my heart rate going to high so i didn't need much to cool down. i intend one giving this one another fair shot since i was starting to get into a little more.
well going to have dinner(thinking salad with some chicken on top and a nice tuscan italian dressing). hopefully i will not be interuppted for some pilates or yoga and abs. haven't decided which i feel up too LOL.
