Looks like Richard wins with 3 minutes and 20 seconds. Good job Richard! On a side note, I beat Dave because he never even posted a time http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 01 Apr 2008 16:29:30 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlwell, i feel for you, girl...i've had a lot of back trauma in my life (everything from a curved spine to herniated discs), so i know from back pain...be careful/gentle w/yourself http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 25 Mar 2008 18:02:10 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlI've had the heating pad on it all day at work. I just didn't want to throw down with Dave and then sound like I was making an excuse. I have a lower back injury from HS that flares up now and again.http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 25 Mar 2008 17:54:57 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlQuoting: rharpeOk, I suffered through 3 minutes 20 seconds! Show off! Guess I have to give it another go, eh? lol Quoting: rach_1623Well, I held the superwoman for 2 minutes last night, but probably due to the back strain, it was not perfect form. I've got the heating pad on it at work today. When my back gets better I'll try again. Be really careful w/your back, Rachael...very easy to hurt it, and it takes a long time to recoup......http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 25 Mar 2008 17:53:22 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlWell, I held the superwoman for 2 minutes last night, but probably due to the back strain, it was not perfect form. I've got the heating pad on it at work today. When my back gets better I'll try again. As I was doing it though, I realized that the way I usually do this exercise is with my hips, tummy, and chest on the ground and thighs mostly off the ground. I found it really hard to keep the thighs on the ground and the chest up. Maybe this has to do with my center of gravity....http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 25 Mar 2008 15:45:53 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlOk, I suffered through 3 minutes 20 seconds! (I'm sweating like a pig.) I can barely type this because I'm still shaking just after doing it. What a workout!http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlTue, 25 Mar 2008 15:44:55 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.html*sigh* I've gone and pulled something in my back. I'm afraid to do the superwoman and make it worse. Maybe it'll be okay by Wed. *crosses fingers*http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 20:01:55 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlI need to try this again!

That's a GOOD one!! I only got in 1 minute and 8 seconds but THAT HITS THE SPOT! You all need to give this one a go. 1.) I started to get my heart pumping 2.) I felt the tightness in my tummy (Lots of tightness!) 3.) I literally began sweating instantly! This was a GREAT suggestion Lily -- thanks for starting it Rachael!...http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlFri, 21 Mar 2008 06:05:54 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlNice job Lilly http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlThu, 20 Mar 2008 15:35:30 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlOwwwwweeeeeeeee...ok, I was able to go for 2 mins 12 secs. So, I guess I will try to beat that tomorrow. I really started to feel it around 50 secs. I felt it most in the upper & lower back, abs & hamstrings. Whew!http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlThu, 20 Mar 2008 15:20:09 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlI'll try for 1 minute, (and hope for more!) http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlThu, 20 Mar 2008 00:48:28 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlWell, like I said in the other thread, I could probably hold this one for a min or two. I'll say two and see how I do ;)http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlWed, 19 Mar 2008 19:31:12 +0000http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlOkay, who can hold the superman/woman pose the longest? Here is the demo pic. Rules: Can keep thighs, pelvis, abs on ground. Must keep knees and below and chest and above up off the ground. Arms must be extended in front of the head as shown. We can keep this open for 1 week. So get your times in by next Wed and I'll post results next Thurs. Good luck everyone!! ...http://www.traineo.com/1903_5439_0.htmlWed, 19 Mar 2008 19:24:37 +0000
