Just saw your other thread. :) I'm about to do a core/stability ball workout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyofsixreboot Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Ran 4.5 this morning. It was so foggy and humid I had to take off my glasses. Time to put my soggy self into the shower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintermom Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I've missed the thread for a few weeks. I've been playing tennis about 4x/wk and decluttering and cleaning the whole house. That's been the biggest work-out of all! Steam cleaning all the carpets left me exhausted, but very satisfied with the results. Sometimes I think it would be great motivation to see all the good exercising does to the inside of our bodies! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 I did this core workout - my biggest problem area - very effective and quite tough. You do need a stability ball and a medicine ball. Joy of Six, when I used to go running, I had to wear contacts because of all the humidity and/or rain. Great job on the run. :) Dee, decluttering and cleaning are amongst the best workouts. So good for our overall health and mental well-being. Enjoy the cleanness and neatness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wintermom Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yesterday dh and I played a set of tennis. I beat him 6 - 0!!! :hurray: I'm paying for it today, though. I'm slightly sore. :coolgleamA: It was so worth it. (I'm only a little bit competitive. lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeacefulChaos Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Have been forgetting to post, but still working toward the 5k (two of them, actually - one sept 7 and one sept 14) - did 6 minutes/2 minutes running/walking for 1.7 miles today. Pretty good pace. My running buddy can't go with me this week so it was by myself - I had thought about doing 2 miles but ended up not. Next week we are going to start going farther. (Our trail around the lake nearby is 1.7) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassiemc Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 My daughter and I jogged 2.2 miles this morning. We are participating in a virtual half marathon during the month of July. Only about 4 miles left to go :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyofsixreboot Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 5 soggy miles in the rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintermom Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Bringing this thread back to page 1! I played 1 hour of doubles tennis Monday evening. I've got a singles match scheduled with a friend Tuesday pm. I'll probably cycle to and from the courts, so that will be a double bonus!

Kim in Appalachia Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Yesterday I did kettlebell and today I'm heading out for a run. I want to run 5 miles, but I have a little head cold and I'm unsure how it's going to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeacefulChaos Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Ran again this morning. (6 running/2 walking). Feeling really good...running makes me happy. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristyB in TN Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I ran yesterday morning and actually made it to yoga last night. My daughter and I finally got off your butts and tried the new hot yoga studio which sits conveniently 1/2 mile from my house. It was wonderful and we committed to the 30 day unlimited package. I really have to love it to spring for that! :) Our regularly attended studio is downtown, maybe 20 minutes away. and for some reason we love to make that an obstacle. we have no more excuses. the instructor was wonderful, the studio beautiful and we can ride our bikes there! I didn't sleep well because I am so darn sore that I woke up every ding dong time I moved! I did drag my tired self out and ran a solid 3.5 this morning and walked the rest of the way home. :P it was a gorgeous morning for a run, though. The running path through my neighborhood goes past a "55 and over" community. The residents are fun and I love sharing the space with them.

Now I really, really miss running. I ran yesterday morning and actually made it to yoga last night. My daughter and I finally got off your butts and tried the new hot yoga studio which sits conveniently 1/2 mile from my house. Christy, good job on the run and so happy that you and your daughter made it to yoga. I'm about to do Denise Austin: Get Fit Daily Dozen.

Luckymama Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Wednesday I was able to do the beginner Pilates of the day as it was stretching, then arms/back, then a short painful butt routine. Yesterday was a Pilates rest day. I did an hour on the treadmill. Today I'll do Pilates then another hour on the treadmill. The scale number is decreasing as is my waist measurement :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Yoga from this book which I just got and love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristyB in TN Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Went to yoga yesterday, 90 minute hot yoga class. There were only 3 of us there and one of the attendees happened to be a realtor I know and love to work with when I get a chance. It was so nice to get a chance to relate on a personal level. The class was just hard but a small class made it feel like I had a personal training session and it was just wonderful. Finding this yoga studio has transformed my non existent practice! I am trying to get my butt out of bed to go for a run this morning. I hope all of you get a great work out in today and that you feel beautiful all day long.

Kim in Appalachia Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Wed I ran 5 miles, and then 5 miles yesterday as well. Today is kettlebell, but I'm dragging a bit. I'm having some coffee trying to get the energy up for single leg deadlifts, clean and presses, swings, squat thrusts, and mountain climbers. :) Tomorrow is my kids' swim final. It will be an all day event, and then Sunday will be sleep in day. All this yoga talk has me missing it. I haven't had time this week.

Negin Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 Woke up late this morning, at least by my standards anyway. Lots of stretching and yoga moves. I think it will be a rest day. If I'm feeling up to it, however, I'll either go swimming or do a Leslie Walk later. Not sure yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristyB in TN Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I got in 90 minutes of hot power flow at the super awesome yoga studio I love so much. Had to work all afternoon but got a run in last night during Sam's football practice. I ran 3, probably. I need to step that up considerably. Today will be hot yoga and hopefully a 5 miler this morning after a lot of coffee. I did not sleep much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeacefulChaos Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Didn't get a chance to post last night, but I didn't wake up early enough Friday morning to run. Waited until after dinner and went then instead - went a little slower than usual (ran 5 min/walked 2, as opposed to the 6/2 we've been doing) because I had eaten dinner and it was 10* hotter than it is 12 hours earlier! :) Went a little farther though - 2 miles instead of the usual 1.7ish.

Shannon in TN Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I know it's a new week (being that it's Sunday and all) but I haven't been around the forums for a while and just found this thread. I've been doing boot camp classes twice a week since Feb and I'm down 22 pounds! I'm finally, as of this week, able to fit in my pre-kids bathing suit (don't ask me why I still have it - I'm a bathing suit hoarder). I've also started running to prepare for a local obstacle 5K mud run (Sept) and a race called the Zombie escape (Oct). And the best part about it all? My hubby is starting to work out too! So, last week: Monday 50 minutes boot camp, Wed 55 minutes Tabata boot camp, Fri 1.2 mile run of hill work (we live on a biiiiig hill) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
