Negin Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 About to do Crunch: Fat Burning Pilates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soror Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Hi- Hoping for 6 sessions this week as well, 20 minutes or more. I'll be going pretty light though due to recovering from the flu and hopefully can pick it back up again next week in intensity. I have a new yoga video coming that I'm dying to try out but I need to wait until I'm 100% as it is supposed to be short but challenging. I'm hoping for at least 1 session of walking and hopefully 2, assuming the weather holds and everyone continues to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrin Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I started exercising last Sunday and made it 7 days at 20-40 minutes each! Woo-hoo! :hurray: I'm hoping to do as well this week, though I hope that time of the month doesn't interfere too much. :glare: Last night I was able to do 13 minutes on the elliptical. I'd like to get that to 15 by the end of this week. I'm really enjoying the Daily Workout apps that I purchased. There are so many options that it isn't repetitive at all, especially with some workout videos thrown in their two days a week. Today, being Sunday, is my stretch day, so I will do the elliptical for at least 13 minutes, then do 30 minutes of slow, deep stretching (my favorite)! ETA: My new Fitbit should be arriving on Tuesday, and I'm excited about the encouragement to move more in my daily life. I lost 3.8 lbs this week. Just 76 to go...

Hoggirl Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Sunday - always off! I know this is not a thread about our spouses, but I just wanted to say that my dh ran a 50k yesterday! NOT a typo - there is a "0" after that "5." Not something I would choose to do, but it was on his bucket list. He is turning 50 on Tuesday and wanted to do this 50k for his 50th birthday!

Joyofsixreboot Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Ran 4 cold miles this morning ( but am now eating Superbowl snacks) The plan is 4-5 miles next 5 days, yoga 3x, weights 2x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Congrats to your dh. That's pretty amazing. I did a trial workout for Lindsay Brin's Lean Out program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Just wow. A 50K! Ran 7 miles today on the flat. My foot feels pretty good. No speed obviously. I lost 3.8 lbs this week. Just 76 to go... Honestly, I think that is the best way to lose weight. Nice and slow. I always aimed for 2 to 3 per week. Now I've just got to kickstart the weight loss again. I've been stuck at 165 for the past six months. I'd like to get down to 140 by the summer if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFM Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I am new here but I need some more accountability. I am going to go to the gym today and walk/jog 30 minutes (however far that takes me). Usually, (what I was doing before I gained 15lbs) was: MW: Spin 530am-630am F: Pilates 530am-630am TTh: Jog/walk/elliptical 530am-630am I try to go swimming with the kids once/twice a week. I find if I do not get up and get out of the house before my husband has to go to work or the kids wake up it just doesn't get done. I am going to PROBABLY start doing some yoga as well...we shall see. Hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Soon about to do Walk Away the Pounds - 4 Miles. Thought to make some of us smile. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Cynthia, congrats to your husband! :hurray: Nice to see everyone doing so well and seeing lots doing yoga. I love yoga and need to get back to doing it more regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Wow! I'm amazed at those of you who get up so dang early to exercise. That is just not happening here. I didn't even get out of bed by 7:30 this morning to workout. I was enjoying my morning cuddles with my 4 yr old too much. I love our morning cuddles. It's one of the few times when it's just him and me alone and he's calm, snuggly, and sweet. There is no way I'm giving that up! :) So since I spent the morning snuggling I will try to fit something in later this afternoon after lessons. adding: I did JM 30 day shred level 3 with dh.

Critterfixer Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 In the summer I'm up early to run. In the winter I've got to have my tea after doing the outdoor chores to be properly thawed out, so I don't do my run until after the sun is up and the frost is off. Monday is my sceduled day off, and boy do I need it after yesterday! I am, at least, ambulatory and not in much pain. Really makes me glad for a day off after a long run. Might go on a bike ride later if it stops raining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrin Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Sunday evening 13 minutes in the elliptical. And I seriously enjoyed my 30 minutes of stretching. DH was bumfuzzled that a stretch could take so long. He just doesn't understand that I look forward to Sunday just for those stretches and having the time to do them well.

Hunter's Moon Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Today I did some squats with bicep curls, along with some crunches. Then I did a 9 minute cardio video on the BeFit Youtube channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ. Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Sunday - BodyStep Monday - Worked out with dh in the weight area then did BodyStep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemykids Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 So far this week, I did a half hour on the elliptical and over 150 crunches. And because I was extremely sore I also did a few yoga stretches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Not sure how many miles of Leslie I'll do today. Depends on how much time I have. I was hoping to do another workout, but not enough time and not in the mood for learning new moves. Prefer to keep it simple today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Four mile run with 4 hill repeats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrin Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Just now posting for yesterday. Did 14 minutes on the elliptical and inclined the ramp a tiny bit, too! I planned on doing 10 minutes' worth from the Daily Workout app, but got distracted by a sick little one, then fell asleep before I remembered. Oops.

SJ. Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Step cl class again. I have been doing too much step recently and I've been getting a little bored with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Soon about to do Bosu: Long & Lean workout - from the DVD that came with my Bosu ball (I've hardly ever used it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 My balance needs a lot of work. I'm really bad at the BOSU workouts and hate doing them. Still, I know that I need to focus on improving my balance. I'm almost 45 and want to try to age somewhat gracefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LG Gone Wild Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 We took some time off of LMC because of a cold making its way through the house. Plus I have been suffering from a lot of pain. I did manage submission wrestling and knife/stick class last night. Enjoyed them both thoroughly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KungFuPanda Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I've logged six hours of dance this week, with three to go. Last week was 15! Today, is my non-dance day and everything is vaguely achy and telling me that I'm not getting any younger. My feet are telling me that I HAVE to remember to wear shoes in class. Wah, whine, limp . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom-ninja. Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Yesterday nothing. This morning I ran. This afternoon I did Tony and the Kids with the boys and followed that with a DA cardio workout on BeFit. I am loving that youtube channel.

Mom-ninja. Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I'm hoping to do as well this week, though I hope that time of the month doesn't interfere too much. :glare: I have several days a month that I can't workout due to my cycles. Ovulation is so bad that I can barely walk, and then the first 2 days of my period are horrendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Hey, what do you know - I get to join this thread! My rebounder (mini-trampoline) came yesterday. I'm not doing a program yet - think I'll have to work up to the one they sent me ;) but I've done 2 easy sessions of 15-20 minutes each today while watching Downton Abby on Netflix.

rgrin Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Tuesday - cramps and just tiredness. (I think i need to re-adjust my caloric intake.) My new Fitbit Zip arrived, so I spent the evening playing with it and perusing the website instead of exercising. I've walked 3051 steps though today, and it's not even 3:00 yet. I hope I can do the elliptical tonight, but I don't think my scheduled Pilates is going to fly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thursday-4 mile run and a new understanding of grit. That's what one has to call on for that last half mile of a four mile run after a 20 mile week. I am sooooo tired. Glad tomorrow is a day off.

gardenmom5 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 yoga. I keep waking up at unreasonable hours - but I want to do yoga, and if I don't do it first thing, it doesn't happen - so I get up and do yoga. I could feel the muscles in my thighs feeling "long". cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I also did yoga today. Let me tell you there's nothing like doing yoga with your 4 yr old hanging about. While I was in down dog he decided he couldn't resist playing the drums on my behind. Very relaxing. :smilielol5: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ. Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 No fitness for me today, still not feeling well. Thanks for the well wishes Negin. :) I'm sure I will feel well enough to workout soon, here's to positive thinking! :cheers2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soror Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 No workout Thursday, very busy here preparing for our Valentine's Party- which necessitated going to town, making our cards and all of our food. Today we will be gone most of the day to the party and then dh is returning from a work trip so it is not looking likely either, unless I can get a workout before the baby awakes- which is a total crap shoot!
