Pamela H in Texas Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Heidi and I are about to go on a walk, a long walk. Well, long for her. I could do more. I'm pretty sure that as much clean laundry as I need to hang counts as exercise for today also. Wanna hear something cool? My niece (young 20s), who I haven't seen in a long while, went to the fair with us yesterday. She immediately started talking about all my weight loss and such! I told her how I was a 20 but these jeans were a 14. She said, "and they are loose." Okay, well, they weren't loose! But they were 14s! (Yes, I realize I already bragged about that part last weekend). We started talking about working out and such. She's going to boot camp next month; so I have a feeling she's about to find out what working out really is :) I couldn't hang THERE (yet). But it felt good for the compliments :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Will soon be doing Ellen Barrett: Pick Your Level Weight Loss Pilates and hope to go for a swim this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim in Appalachia Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Very nice, Pamala B) I did a HIIT workout this morning. :D It was a kettlebell conditioning workout that's part of the program I'm using. It did 30 sec rounds (30 on 30 off) of high-pulls (each side) and push presses. I did 5 rounds, and felt very done. Yesterday was a strength workout that included goblet squats, 1 arm rows, and 1 arm swing. I did squats with a 35# bell! Very pleased with myself, thank-you. :001_smile: We also went for an afternoon hike. It was just 2 miles, but had a lot of steep up and downs. My legs were very tired and sore. Came home and took a nice hot bath. Tomorrow is yoga day, and maybe a walk around the zoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildiris Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'm mixing it up today and taking a break from hoeing and hauling compost in five gallon buckets. DD~10 and I are off to the beach for an hour or two of skimboarding. I hope my fifty year old body doesn't get too trashed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I worked yesterday and my fitbit logged almost 16,000 steps. That was enough for me to consider it exercise.g Today is the first trail ride of the season- my bike is off the indoor trainer and on my car. Can't wait...trail riding is SO much better than indoor riding. Taking it slowly though- don't want to overdo it. At 52, it takes me a while to get back into shape after a long winter.

Pamela H in Texas Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I skipped CrossFit yesterday because of a tummyache. This morning, I'm going to go work out some of this sadness (I got pics of Monkey last night) if I can stop crying (again). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim in Appalachia Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Yoga day, and it was needed. When I got to my first chataranga my back had a spasm. So much pain! I kept going, just gently, with some modifications to my normal routine. My back is still a bit stiff and sore, but much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 workout was a bit hard. after the warmup (not outlining today), we had FIVE rounds of 10 push-press, 15 box jumps, and 20 burpees. I had to adjust a little. I did the push press with 35 pounds, not 55. I probably could have done 45 though, actually. Next time. For box jumps, I did step-ups. I still don't trust myself to jump it for than a couple times. And I did 15 burpees the first four times and push ups for the final 20. I had to take three "cool wind" breaks to keep from getting sick to my stomach and cried myself through the last round. At least I tried, right?

Pamela H in Texas Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 My sore throat is worse so I'm skipping. I tried ACV yesterday and live on coconut oil. If anyone has a surefire cure, please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 My sore throat is worse so I'm skipping. I tried ACV yesterday and live on coconut oil. If anyone has a surefire cure, please let me know. Eating whole cloves numbs a sore throat. I've also heard that chewing and sucking on shredded ginger will do the trick as well. I think you're supposed to roast the ginger first? Not sure. I've done the cloves and it is numbing. I also take ACV chased by honey several times a day when feeling sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Fitness Blender #18; today was kickboxing which I'm not good at. LG, I'm sure you'd get an abdominal workout just from laughing at me. :lol: I just laugh at myself and keep going as best I can. Still got a good sweat going. Apparently, flapping ones arms like a chicken is good cardio. Here's a quote: "Know your limitations and then defy them." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LG Gone Wild Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 On the road over the weekend. Sunday I had a miserable time on a treadmill, worst 6 miles in memory. Core Synergistics in my hotel room on Monday. Tuesday, Insanity from memory in my hotel room. Today, not sure. Trying to put the home and life together and in order. KH, kickboxing on video is hard to do. I am sure if you were to take a class you would do quite well. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamela H in Texas Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 skipped again so I could sleep in. At 4am, I was absolutely miserable. Now I feel a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom-ninja. Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Yoga today. I did the intermediate version of Katherine Budig. It was fun. Very different moves than anything I've done before. Challenging and something to work towards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 Walking again soon. Sorry to sound so boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I got up, dressed in workout clothes, put my hair in a ponytail, put on my shoes, and walked into the kitchen for some water. That's when it happened. My ds and dh were cooking breakfast. My ds had made a pile of crepes, and my dh was making eggs and bacon. Maple flavor bacon. Did I mention crepes? Turns out my will power is weak when such food is placed directly under my nose and I didn't have to cook it. The fact that I know that if I hesitate in eating, said food it will be gone. Three boys and a husband.....one cannot hesitate and say, "Oh, I'll eat later," cause that is just not possible. That plays a big role in how strong one's will power is. So, yeah, missed the morning workout. I'm just telling myself that I'll do it this afternoon. Yep, that's what I'm saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
