Turbo Fired Up

This morning I did day 2 of Turbo Fire.  So far, I’ve done the Fire 30, HIIT 15, and the Stretch 10 (which is done pretty much every day after a workout – a good 10 min stretch session).  I’m really enjoying the workouts and really feeling the burn during them.  I think because I love Turbo Jam (hello, my name is Kim and I’m a Chalene Johnson groupie…) these seem a little new but a little old at the same time.  Old in a good way – the familiar way.  I’m really happy I bought them, because I can totally see these making a big difference in my cardio workouts.

The only downside is that they are really light (it seems anyway) on the strength training,  so I will be mixing in some weight lifting/body weight exercises.  Probably 2x a week.  I know I needed a better cardio program to help burn the calories, but I know from experience that I need to do strength training in order to really see my body change.  I’m not sure how to mix it all together yet, but I’m working on it.  It’s really hard to get to the gym during the week, but I think one night a week I can make it work.

I’m also using the beachbody site (the free version – not the paid membership version) to track my workouts.  I’m going to play around on there because they have some way to combine workout programs I think.  That would be nice if they could develop a program like that.  We will see.  I’m kind of annoyed with the site though….there seems to be 2 or 3 ways to track a workout and they all don’t register the same.  Maybe it’s just me though – it is only the 2nd day I’ve tried to track a workout.

Anyway, enough workout talk.  After work tonight I have a big goal of completing our wedding invitations!  They are printed and I’m in the assembly phase.  Let’s just say that  Goo Gone was my friend this morning…
