~*Friday's Gymsperation*~

“ Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. ”~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

I love this quote, but sometimes I just don't have much enthusiasm. One thing that really helps is music. Without music I would never get on that treadmill or take that urban rebounding class.
So here is my current GET YOUR BUTT MOVING GIRL music selections:
Bloc Party: 'Like Eating Glass'
Christina Agulera: 'Can't Hold Us Down'
Cyndi Lauper: 'Goonies Are Good Enough'
Jay Z & Linkin Park: '(Dirt Off Your Shoulder) Lying For You'

So today I was hoping that along with our activity accomplishments we would post songs or albums that pump us up and raise our enthusiasm to work out. etc.

You guys would laugh if you heard what I was working out to. But reason enough, is because my son Blake was my weight. ( He's 2 months and over 10 lbs). We worked out to Baby Einstein . I did crunches and leg lifts with him on my belly . Not too exciting for you, but it gets the job done

thats is adorable and friggin' cool! you are very lucky to have your own 10 pounder hanging around.....hmmmmmm....I wonder if my Rottie would like to be picked up

Cheryl, it's worth a try. I love the name Cheryl, thats my sisters name

A Rottie, I can only imagine .Use him to do some curls. Watch your back though

I hit the treadmill for 45 minutes and that was IT. Didn't do anything else... I think I am getting sick..

Today we haad a little bit of OutKast (I'm Sorry Ms. Jackson), some NIN (Closer), Justin Timberlake told me I got a 'sexyback' and then we had some Kelis (Caught Out there)... I don't remember anything else - I'm soooooo tired!!

I just wanted to say thanks to you girls for starting this gymsperation. I've been reading them all week, and have actually gone to the gym every night! I haven't gone consistently in months, and any week I've gone, I've only gone once or twice.

My gym music is a rotation of Gwen Stefani, Cypress Hill, Guns & Roses, Black Eyed Peas, Motley Crew, No Doubt, George Michael (I'm a geek, but I love that song Freedom), the Clash, and a few other songs in those genres. Strange mix, but it keeps it interesting

Your Black Eyed Peas to Motley Crew is just as interesting as my Cyndi Lauper to Jay Z Love it!

I took the day off today. We were out late last night and there was no way I was getting up early to exercise.

But I'll be on the treadmill tomorrow morning at like 8:30 or so.

I am a dork but I like Britney Spears. I like the beats, they get me moving.

30 min elliptical
30 min weights: bicepts, tripcepts, shoulders

What did I listen to??...Eminiem, Tool, Amber, Kelly Clarkson, Mobb Deep....my IPod is set to shuffle!
