KW cardio week 1 done and survived. Where did those mountain steppers come from? And I couldn't even get off the ground for the alternate push ups! Does he even consider that some of us might be a tadge overweight!! Having said all that, I managed everything else and feel great. Certainly worked up a sweat!
What do others do in between KW days? I feel I need to keep the momentum going but as a consummate couch potato not sure what to try. Ideas please? Classes not really an option for me here in Vienna as they are way over my budget.

Hi Daisy - well done on completing the dreaded Wk1 Cardio! It really does get better from now on. And don't worry about not being able to do everything straight away. You'll be surprised at how you progress as the weeks go by.
I do nothing on my rest days. Never have and never will!

Hi Daisy (I posted a similar response over on the May Challenge thread), I do stat bike sessions. I plan to do actual cycling outside now that the weather is warmer. Jogging is another idea.
PS: wk 1 Cardio is generally found to be the toughest of the programme, so well done for getting through that. Mountain climbers are hard! As for the alt press ups, I try to do about 4 on one side and then 4 on the other as otherwise I spend most of the time trying to switch sides!

It's good to know its not just me. I was so proud of myself until he started these two. A bit like the Kettlercise hip extensions - I couldn't get my butt off the ground the first few times! Maybe if I persevere I will be able to do the mountain climbers

A nice way to start a Saturday, just did fast abs and loved it. Lots of moves from core which was always my fav! Window wipes and hip crunches and half get ups( killers!) so effective though. Size 10 here I come
Is any one else doing a work out today?

Morning - I like Fast Abs too. Its very effective. Its an exercise-free day for me today. Although I will fit in a little bit of housework so I suppose that counts a wee bit!

Kettlebell free day for me too today. I haven't tried the fast abs yet. Might do it tomorrow evening as I have week1 core for the morning.

Hi Trash - do you know how many points the YOO MOOs are? They sound nice.

Hi Cat Lover Sue. I make my own instant frozen yogurt and it is gorgeous. A generous handful of frozen raspberries and fat free Greek yogurt blitzed with a stick blender. It makes a light whippy icecream that is my daily dessert fix. Also works with frozen banana, strawberries, blueberries etc - just make sure they are cut into fairly small pieces before freezing. I never knew SW could be so delish!

I just checked the back of the pot and put it in my WW'er calculator and its 3 points per 100grams. The pot is a 100grams
Cheers Trash. Thought you were doing WW the same as me. Might go and sniff these out in Tescos!

Fast abs is very similar to
Core- doing two core workouts in the one day would kill me at the moment lol
Good luck

Phew just about cooled down from Wk6 Cardio! Its a great session and boy does it get you sweating! So decided to reward myself by sniffing out some of the new YOO MOO frozen yogurts Trash was recommending earlier. Better still they are half price in Morrisons. Will have one this evening for pudding. Also just enjoyed six (yes that was six) crumpets with strawberry jam - to be fair it was WW jam! Think I might be over my points allowance today! Ha Ha. Bl00dy gorgeous though. Just a bowl of zero point soup for tea with my YOO MOO then!
