Is it spring yet?

 Cause I swear this is the forecast for the next couple of days



I mean my area is in a winter storm warning or we will be shortly.   Expected to get over 8 inches of snow.  I'd rather get 1 in of rain with 50 degree temps, but well,  God didn't ask me no did he.  

My abs are SO SORE today.  Yesterday's workout, it had abs in, and my abs are weak cause truth be told, I've not been working them much for a few years.

Back in my Firm workout days, when a lot of the Firm workouts had abs in them, and I did the ab workout portion or as much of it as I could. my abs were pretty darn strong.   Same with my CrossFit days.  Lots of core work in CrossFit, but that's been quite a few years ago.  And my abs/core have gotten very weak. And a strong core is just good for your overall health.   So I just need to pick workouts with ab workouts built in and MAKE myself do them

I think after my Wonder Woman program is done, I'll do a couple weeks of The Firm.  I loved the Classics, ok still do.  They are just so good, even though they are outdated with their 1980s outfits, etc, but I LOVE THEM. I mean look at this woman


Miss Susan Harris, the instructor from the Firm Vo1.  That yellow leotard is just a classic in the home workout world.  I remember watching the commercial for this workout, back in the mid 80s.  I was a teen at the time. And my parents didn't have a VHS player, and I wanted this workout SO BAD!!!  I mean so bad.  I begged for weeks for it.  But VHS players were expensive at the time, and well, they didn't think they needed to buy one just so I could workout in the living room 😭

So when the early 90s came around, and I was a grown woman, with a VHS machine lol, I found Vo 1 and Vo 2 in a store.   And I did them so many times, and lost my baby weight from baby number 1 pretty quickly.  Now I have so many Firm workouts, and other workouts, but I will keep my Firm Classics until I die.   

Got to say, I'm kind of looking forward to a Firm Classics mini rotation in 4 more weeks.

  1. Nothing beats TheFIRM. It's just beautiful, classy, effective--the music I love, the set, and most of all, the ladies. I'm enjoying Joyce, but I may sneak a FIRM in here and there. Definitely will put in some of their more cardio-focused workouts, hares & cardio step mix.
