Flip Cam
Would anybody be interested in videos of me working out to Turbo Fire? I’ve been thinking of getting a flipcam and starting my own Youtube channel, but I’ve no idea if anybody would care.
Thoughts?
Loved Scott Pilgrim!
OK, I know this has nothing to do with Turbo Fire, but OMG how cool was Scott Pilgrim? I loved that movie! Loved how the mixed the special effects with the action, how cool it was to have all these awesome fights, and poor Scott Pilgrim having to put up with all those nasty exes! OK, so he’s not a total innocent, but he’s a good guy at heart, you can tell, he just didn’t want to hurt anybody so didn’t do the right thing. Still, awesome! If you haven’t watched it, go now!
Going strong
So life seems to have settled down into a fun rhythm of exercise, sleep and eating. I’m pushing myself hard, and really enjoying doing so. Up early, Turbo Fire, sweat and feel great, then shower and a healthy breakfast. Study, play, good food, then early to bed. Gotta say I’m loving it.
Going to start talking about my exercise routines soon. Otherwise what else is there to write?
Getting Ready to End Week 2!
You know, I really like the class system that Turbo Fire has got going. I don’t know for sure, but usually these workout videos seem to have the instructor and two back up people doing the workout facing you, but in Turbo Fire, it’s like a real class. Chalene is up on stage doing her stuff with two backup people (one doing a modified version), while on the ground facing her is the class. It’s like, 20 people or something, and they’re all super psyched and super fit. They get all pumped up, hi-five each other, have a blast. And when I’m doing the workout, it’s awesome to see all those people doing the same thing, because it makes it more fun to compete with them, to see if I can jump higher or go faster then them
So yes, week 2 is about to end! I’m having a great time. I love that the classes aren’t all the same, that Chalene varies it up between HIIT and EZ and Stretch and stuff, so that each day you’re doing something new. I think I’m definitely going to finish this, and then I am going to look AWESOME!
Chalene Johnson
You know what I find most impressive about Chalene Johnson? Is how she’s able to talk even as she exercises, like, talking in this normal voice as if she’s not actually doing anything. Even in the middle of a HIIT! She’ll be leaping up and down and doing the full workout with everybody else, and just be all chatting along, a running commentary on what’s being done, and she never sounds out of breath! That’s incredible.
I also really like her positive attitude. So many people in this world are all negative, saying I can’t do this, I’ll never be able to do that, I won’t be able to finish this workout. But Chalene is all about positive thinking. I love it when she points at me from the screen and simply states, “You’re feeling great right now! You’re getting your second wind!” It’s like, I don’t even have a choice or anything. I just perk right up, and jump right back into the Turbo Fire workout. Awesome!
Hello hello
Hello blog! I feel great today, just so you know. Jumped out of bed before the alarm, and went straight to the TV. The little temple at which I worship every morning. It’s becoming like a regular little household god, it is, me bowing and sweating before it like some ancient primitive dude before a volcano. Pressed play and just through myself into the workout, rocking it with Chalene and the other ladies like it was my business. Which it is! It’s my business, and my responsibility, to myself, my body, my future and those around me.
Because yesterday I had an epiphany. I have one life, you see, and I have to live it to the ultra max. That’s why I drink redbull in the mornings. I want to live everything at the high octane levels. So I need to be healthy and full of energy. I have one life, and I don’t want to spend it fat and out of energy. So I have to work out, because my own attitude will affect those around me too. So if I love and respect my friends and family, I owe it to them to be in a great mood and always on the go.
So! Breakfast time and then some studying. I love life! And yesterday’s moping were just that, moping, nothing to worry about!
Didn’t Work Out Today
So I didn’t get out of bed today. I woke up on time, and everything, but I just lay there, completely without any energy at all. I could have just chugged an energy drink like I normally do, but didn’t want to. I just lay there feeling all weird. Like, no motivation, no desire to jump up and workout at all. And this only six days in. I don’t know, maybe I’m not looking forward to going to this new school as much as I think I am. I just lay there listening to Mum working downstairs, cooking and playing her funny old time music, and suddenly I didn’t want to move, didn’t want to go to a new school and meet lots of new people. What if they don’t like me? What if I don’t make any friends? What if they think I’m stupid, or uncool, or something?
I just lay there for half an hour, and then crawled out of bed and went and had a long, hot shower. Maybe I’ll do my workout tonight. Not going to tell Mum, though. She’d be worried.
Loving It!
Hello world! Final day of the Inferno Plan, and I just have to say that this workout program is working out (get it?) perfectly for me. I love the high energy, I love the music, I love the fact that I can keep up with the people on the DVD’s and still break a good sweat. It’s varied, it’s intense, it’s fun, and I think I might stick with it and see how I do in 3 months time! Time sure flies by. Feels like it was the beginning of Summer not too long ago, and now here it is, end of summer, going into Autumn, and then and then and then! Moving and going to a new school!
I think that this workout is going to give me the confidence I need to really walk into that new school and make all sorts of amazing new friends. Being energetic and healthy makes me feel so amazing, and I know that I’ll just fit right in. It’s going to be perfect. Plus, this workout already has the kind of food I like to eat, so what’s to worry about? As long as Mom keeps cooking for me, how can I go wrong?
Ouch!
Hello hello, good morning, I just finished absolutely killing myself, and it felt great! I LOVE the HIIT class, love it when that Fire Drill begins, and the alarm goes off and your pulse starts pumping hard and you just know you’re going to have to thrash around like a junkie going crazy at a rave! Man, I am all revved up, just finished, sitting here soaked with sweat. I should go shower, because the stretch and the A/C are bringing my temperature down fast. I have to say that today I felt a little sore going in from yesterday’s workout, but nothing too bad, which made me really proud because everybody says this is a tough workout and I think I’m doing really well! Just goes to show how awesome I am
Breakfast was delicious, fresh cantaloupe and strawberry yogurt with a little honey. Mom had it set out and waiting for me, and I just inhaled it! Yum. Can’t wait for lunch, which is going to be a nice, veggie filled sandwich. Have high hopes for losing some weight here, people!
Day 1!
Hello hello!
So today I got started on the Turbo Fire workout. Very fun! I’ve decided to start working out first thing every morning, even before breakfast, and that way I can get the maximum benefit from weight loss. I’ve heard that exercising on an empty stomach maximizes your metabolism, so that is most definitely the way to go.
Today was the 55 EZ Class, and what a misnomer! EZ it is not, but that’s nothing two RedBulls couldn’t help me with. Yes, I drink RedBulls at 8am, deal with it. Nothing helps me attack my workouts like a massive caffeine overdose, so even without the blasting music I was ready to jump through the roof! Chalene is awesome, I love her, she’s so encouraging and involved with the workout. My one question is why are all the workout people so old? They all look like in their 30′s and 40′s, and I bet all of them are mothers and stuff. Not one girl there looked my age, or was even in their 20′s. They looked really fit though, and it gave me even more reason to keep working out, since I would love to have that kind of energy when I’m ancient.
Oh, and I started the 5 Day Inferno Plan today. It’s not very hard because I kind of eat like that already? But still, it should help, and having Mom make all my food makes following this diet plan a cinch. Easy! Also, even though it says I shouldn’t, I might follow it for 10 days, not 5. Guess we’ll see!
