MeanGirls

Monday night is our final training make-up session from our snow day. Had probably my last ski run on Wednesday hadn't been in four weeks. Absolutely no issue with the legs being in condition. Go team training. We will need to figure out how to keep the momentum going girls.
Wednesday night out with the team.

These 8 weeks of "Mean Girls" training were motivating and inspiring on so many levels! We definitely pushed each other, and had MANY laughs along the way. Kristin had a gift for knocking us off of balls (or bosu's), with minimal harm inflicted. "No pain, no gain?" How about, "A little pain....LOTS of gain!" ;-) Good times, I say!! Can't wait until next year! Thank you, ladies.

That's it?

Wow, eight weeks never went by so fast! Had a blast with my team! And Yes, I am the teacher's Pet! :) Good luck to all who participated. You all won, just by participating!
Hears to Good Health!

Be well, Val A.

Loved Team Training

I am sad to see Team Training come to an end. I had never participated in it before and will definately sign up next year! I will use Lisa's plans to help me develop my own fitness routine now that I am on my own-I feel like a baby bird that has been pushed out of its nest!

Eight weeks to get it done !!!

O well.... Thanks Kristin...... Eight weeks..Lots of great workouts...More laughts... I had the BEST Teammate..Even thought she took off for a week to FLA... I just wish it was a Ten week program... Moreover, I want to thank all the female's in the group classes..... Yogafit, BodyCombat, BodyStep,BodyPump and the Bonus workouts... As most of the time the only male in the classes.....

At the Fort Myers airport.... ready to return home and get in this last week of training!  8 weeks went by much too quickly,  and has been a lot of fun.  Camaraderie with team mate, and good natured competition with other teams all added to it.  Extra thanks to Charlene and Mike!!

Staying motivated and inspired!

So yesterday was our last Team Training meeting...boo-hoo! While the actual number on the scale didn't move as much as I'd hope, I know I am more fit, more trim and definitely a lot stronger than I was 8 weeks ago. And this morning I actually hauled myself out of bed to go to Ashley's 5:30 am pump class! So thank you Lisa and everyone at FFY for offering Team Training - it was great...now the rest is up to me!

MeanGirls6 Week 7

Where did the weeks go? Just flew by and the spring has nearly arrived. We lost feet of snow and hopefully pounds and fat. Last week for MeanGirls to get in our workouts and points and one make-up class. It's always a struggle between going out and drinking and getting extra points for not.......... Next time points for those who can go out and drink the most.

Stomach b-UGH!

Week 7's extra workouts were squashed by the stomach bug visiting our house-and it hasn't left yet! Do many flights of stairs doing laundry, getting medicine and water count???

Can't believe it's the last week!

Where did the last EIGHT weeks go? Hopefully the same place as my extra pudge! So glad I did Team Training again this year...I never would have worked so hard (actually, never would have gotten myself to the gym as often)...I'll be curious though to see whether I'll see the concrete results in pounds and body fat lost given that I was not as good overall in the eating department as I was last year...but I know that I am certainly more toned and fit given how my clothes feel and the amount of running I can now manage...and at the end of the day, that's worth a lot in my book. So thanks to Lisa for continuing for push us and to Angela for her camaraderie - I'll miss Team Training!

Only three drinks this week. Can we get a prorated share of the 10 points? 5:30 came to soon after a 1:00am bedtime. How about a prorated share of the 10 points for setting the alarm and not getting up? Only a couple weeks remaining. Let's go for increased activity outside of the team training session, some weight loss, good nutrition and curb the sugar.
