Oohdaddypig, please tell me your yoga secrets

oohdaddypig · 23/06/2014 21:49

Is yoga inferno much faster than yoga blast?

Did yoga blast level 2 tonight. Current fav JM workout as feel great after it.

IdkickJilliansAss · 23/06/2014 21:45

It's frustrating when that happens Anya

I tried the yoga meltdown today, it moved way to fast for me Sad

IdkickJilliansAss · 23/06/2014 20:13

I still find Bob Harpers legs very distracting as the are a bit scrawny!

Even more typos than usual there- sorry!

notyummy · 23/06/2014 18:10

I did not find it easy knotty! Although found the second easier than first. Maybe if I had used lighter weights for the weighted bit in the first I wouldn't have been so bright red by the end. Was using 7.5kg for the swings and those rows with your legs up. That's another thing- the higher your les are, the harder that row exercise is, and the only thing I have in my conservatory that I think is string enough is quite higher which makes it really though!

Haha Knotty, it's orderedGrin Amazon make it too easy!

I haven't heard Gordon Bennett for ages, I won't tell my family your chicken story.....we eat loads of chickenGrin

knottyhair · 23/06/2014 16:14

Go for it spinning, you know you want to.... Idkick, that saying was a constant in my childhood. In fact, we still refer to chicken as "gordon bennett", due to the fact that my mum would cook it so much. We would say it whenever Mum said it was chicken for tea again. It then got to the point where we would ask what's for tea and Mum would testily say "gordon bennett!" Smile.

spinningirl10 · 23/06/2014 16:06

Thanks knotty and notyummy, I'll take a look....not that I need more exercise dvds, but I do like Bob and don't always have enough enough time for the hour cardio one.

IdkickJilliansAss · 23/06/2014 15:19

Gordon Bennett! I havent heard that expression in ages, that really made me smile Knotty

Spinning, notyummy is right, it's part of his Inside Out Method but called Bob's Workout. No countdown timer on this one Sad but comes in at around 25 min so perfect for me. I found it quite tough (as I always do with Bob!) but I liked it - notyummy, those bloody jumping runner's stretch wotnames, gordon bennett! Mind you, you're much fitter than me so I can imagine you breezing through it Grin!

Jacksterbear · 23/06/2014 13:58

Wow! notyummy and Idkick, inspirational stuff!

Snap, spinning - L3 Ripped this a.m. Ouch on the quads and triceps (although considering I couldn't actually get through all the moves when I first tried the workout, grunting and sweating my way through it is a big improvement Grin).

IdkickJilliansAss · 23/06/2014 13:43

The levels complement each other if you have the time Knotty Smile

Ri30 levels 3&4 done

I thinks it's 'Bobs Workout' Spinning because it is two 25 min workouts so for those short of time it is accessible.
My thighs are feeling the pain today having done Bobs one hour Cardio Rev on Friday, 45 hard cross trainer programme in Sat and then the two Bobs Workouts back to back yesterday. Supposed to be doing something this evening whilst dd at brownies Torn between either an Extreme Shed and Shred or Bobs Yoga.

spinningirl10 · 23/06/2014 09:18

Knotty, the dj sounds interesting! Which Bob one have you bought?

I've done Ri30 L3 this morningGrin

knottyhair · 23/06/2014 05:34

Did Jillian's Hard Body L1 yesterday morning - quite liked it! Not sure that the DJ adds anything.... But it's like 6W6P in format, you do 6 circuits once through, then repeat the whole thing. Some moves quite easy, some still tough, for me anyway! It was only L1 though. Will try to give L2 a go next weekend (45 mins long so I can't fit it in on a weekday). My new Bob one arrived yesterday, going to attempt L1 shortly... can't believe notyummy did BOTH levels.

Jacksterbear · 22/06/2014 18:53

Evening all. Been away for weekend and have eaten and drunk lots but seem to have got away without any weight gain phew. Did manage to fit in a Ripped L2 with 3kgs in Friday before leaving. (The 3kgs were ok in the actual bits with weights, but did make all the plank/push-up stuff burn the old shoulders all the more!)

Good to see you notyummy. Like the sound of that shorter Bob DVD; and also that JM box-set, knotty.

notyummy · 22/06/2014 15:14

Both levels of Bobs Workout done with DH this morning. It was officially HARD.

StuntNun · 22/06/2014 14:27

Ri30 L1D6 done.

StuntNun · 21/06/2014 20:23

Ri30 L1D5 done but shortly to be derailed by holibobs.

IdkickJilliansAss · 21/06/2014 17:56

Ri30 Levels 1 & 2 done Smile

OP posts:
notyummy · 21/06/2014 12:49

Hi knotty great to see you. Hope you 'enjoy' the Bob ;-)

45 cross trainer session today. DH gets back for a couple of days tonight so I suspect we will do Bobs Pure Strength together tomorrow and then do a family walk.

knottyhair · 21/06/2014 06:38

Notyummy, I've just found it on Amazon. Yes, I've bought yet another one Smile. Hope life is treating you well, you've always amazed me how busy your life is and it's inspirational how you still fit your exercise in.

knottyhair · 21/06/2014 06:35

Hi Notyummy! Great to hear from you - what's the actual title of the shorter Bob one? I do love Bob but rarely have time for his longer ones.
I bought the Jillian box set last week (someone on here recommended but can't remember who, sorry!). Have done all the levels of Kickbox Fastfix - they are literally 20 mins long, so great for me but I would like to try doing 2 together - very fast and quite hard for me to coordinate some of the combos but quite good fun! I've also done the first level of Killer Abs, enjoyed that as well. The others in the set are One Week Shred (not sure if/when I'll have time for a workout in the morning AND evening though!), Hard Body and Yoga Inferno. Does anyone else have this set and had a go at the others?
