Today I did 1 hour step extreme and 30mins of 1'hour bokwa. I intended on doing the full hour until I twisted my ankle. my intentions of going to the gym for the next few days have now changed to taking it easy. Though I probably should stay laid up, I intend on leisurely walking around my neighborhood with my yellow lab gracie until I can get back to the gym.

I have been doing my yoga every day. It's amazing how my back and hips just stopped hurting once I started it again... I forgot to do my ab/squat and back challenge yesterday but today is another day...

Good workout this morning, even though the sky is trying to wash us all away.
T33, random program, levels 6-9 Stats: 318 cal, 2.58 mi, 45:00 min Intervals: 6 @ 60 sec @ 5.3 mph, 1 @ 90 sec @ 5.3 mph I did lower body circuit training today. Things were humming along nicely and then there was a fly. Not a fly fly but a human fly. You know; the ones who want the machine you are on and kind of buzz around until you get off. Geez. Do something else and come back to it. That's what I do. Don't pressure the people trying to get their sweat groove on. It takes the enjoyment out of beating oneself up. |

Thank you. Things feel much better today. Certainly not 100% yet, but I still plan on strolling the neighborhood. Don't forget to do your challenges today |

T33, random program, level 7
Stats: 292 cal, 2.45 mi, 45:00 min Intervals: 1 @ 90 sec and 3 @ 60 sec. All @ 5.3 mph. I saw Twinkle Toes today and we chatted before I hopped on the treadmill. I also saw another lady not wipe down the elliptical after she got off of it. She then proceeded to move two doors down from me on the treadmills. This is why I wipe down the machines before I get on them. |

So I started with my step/weights workout...which is really undefined; I do what I feel I need to work that day and try to hit all the major groups...
I did my back challenge today but not the ab/squats yet. Gotta get back on track after a super long work day yesterday (and another one tomorrow). Note to crunchers! I have found that putting a weight (I use a 5lb dumbbell) across my tummy, just above my belly button, makes me somehow crunch deeper and feel it better. Just wanted to throw that out there. I'm not sure if this is a common thing to do or not. It more or less gives you something tangible to crunch AROUND and I think that's why I feel it gooder...I'm not entirely sure. As I say, I'm not entirely right. But if it takes fooling your brain to do something better than usual I say why not I'm going to seriously look into joining the Planet Fitness that is 20 minutes away from me. I imagine they will have excellent New Year's deals soonly...I need uphill/strength training. There are NO mountains here. And I need to train for some backpacking...god willing...come spring....let it be

Today I did half an hour on the stair master (300 cal./watched Judge Judy) and then a half hour of weights (leg, arm), abs, back, and balance.
cinnamongrrl, I hold two to five pound weights in my hands while crunching and find it has the same effect. I like to try to find ways to keep things super challenging without increasing time and instead increasing intensity. Quote:

For some inspiration I recommend following Lauren Drain (Public Figure) on Facebook. I read her memoir about growing up in the Westborough ("God hates fags"/Fred Phelps) Baptist church and leaving it. She left everything she ever knew including all the rules about how a woman should be. She's become so strong mentally and physically- check her out!

Good morning, exercisers!
Quickie this morning! T33, random program, level 8 Stats: 202 cal, 1.73 mi, 35:00 min No intervals. My inner thighs and groin felt tender last night so I kept it slower than normal and without any running. As I was coming around the corner to the treadmill, the fans kicked on and a guy on the end said, "There we go! I thought they wanted us to sweat extra today." We had a moment bonding over the temperature. I told him that they would turn on the fans if someone asked. Guess who asked this morning? Yep, that was me. |

I shook things up today. I slept in and rolled around in bed for a while before begrudgingly dragging myself out.
Then I watched a movie and ate a honey crisp apple with peanut butter. Then I had a banana after the movie and got ready for the gym. Workout was good! T33, random program, level 6 Stats: 221 cal, 1.93 mi, 35:00 min Intervals: 4 @ 60 sec @ 5.3 mph Lower body circuit training. |

Today I did 30 minutes on the stair master (300 cal., watched Vanderpump Rules). Then I did 30 minutes of weight lifting, abs, and stretching.
Then I came home and started to have an apple but it was rotten so I had a banana and dried cranberries (in keeping with Gemme's fruit theme for the day).

I gave myself the day off since I was wicked tired from my overnight shift (even though it's asleep overnight, I may have been up late gabbing with my co-worker )
I think I will be regretting this though; I pull a 3 day (24hrs/day, semi live in) stretch starting tomorrow morning. I'm rather tied to the house once I'm there soooo This is gonna be hard to figure out how to get a workout in while I'm on duty.
