How was your week? I ended up doing Low Impact Lower Body on Wednesday after work-and only because I was able to flex off at 3 since I stayed until 7 on Monday night. Tuesday night was book club, so I did not work out-even though it was on Zoom. I need to spend some time with Dan! I have...

Well my week went to hell. I got no workouts in and need to get motivated! Today is RWH Legs and tomorrow I'm going to do the 4 set premix for Chest and the 4 set for Back. It's getting harder and harder after work to find momentum to work out. It's too cold in the mornings and I'm tired at...

Good article in the NYT about self acceptance of the waistline... Bottom line is it's normal! https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/11/well/move/belly-fat-women.html

How was your week? I got in RWH C/S/T on Tuesday and B/S/B on Thursday. Monday was a really short walk after work and that's been it. I'm hoping to do a walk Sat and Sun along with Legs and Chest again, but it's really cold here. Maybe I'll go to the pool? I got my swim cap in the mail to...

OMG! I started January yesterday with RWH B/S/B. Today was RWH Legs-I did low impact for the contrast training. My plan is a solid hour of weights every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. With the rests I take the RWH workouts end up being longer. I also did the 4 round premix...

Hi! Happy New Year! We had a low key evening-I made some crab cakes and Dan built a fire and watched football. I have seen fires on TV in CO. So scary. The weather is causing so much damage-due to the humans, of course. Do you think that's the biggest news story of the year? I've been...

Enjoy your time off! Hope you had a great Christmas with your family. Ours was low key and no stress. Beth

I slept in until 8:30 both weekend days. I just did not want to get up! I'm sure I'll pay for it tonight when I try to get to sleep. How are you feeling? I'm just maintaining things right now. Taking it all one day at a time, working out 4x/week, and trying to intentionally have good days...

I will probably have to retire before I would have the time available to do STS! I've done pieces of it on occastion-like the leg sections in STS 3 and a hypertrophy upper body; but do not have the mental and time committement available right now. I only did one week of Slow and Heavy and that...

My week went by fast. Feels like all I do is work! I did get 3 workouts in during the week, was aiming for 4, but too tired by Friday. Today is my town's Dickens of a Christmas event-all day crafts, people dress up like Victorian's if they want, caroling, food, etc. I'm going to walk...

Yum! A fresh juice/smoothie cleanse sounds like a great way to give your digestive system a rest. I basically gained two pounds over the holiday even though I ate one meal Thursday and one on Friday. DH got indigestion from the richness of some of the food. We're getting stuck in our ways, I...

Getting ready to leave tomorrow morning for New Hampshire! Spent the weekend doing wash and cooking up some food for DS1 to have and making fresh cranberry relish for Thanksgiving. Glad to hear you are easing back into working out. If you are like most folks I have seen, you will continue...

How is your week going? Saturday I ended up getting my Booster and then recovered from it on Sunday. I was so tired and achy and if it's anything like what you've been going through I'm glad you're vaccinated because it was awful and if you got covid without being vaccinated that would be 10X...

Sorry. It's been a busy week. Work is kicking my butt. Our positivity rate is 12% in the area so it's non stop covid questions, testings, letters, cleaning, phone calls...I'm pretty tired by the end of the day. I'm in a funk too with the time change and not being able to walk to and from...

What a week-TGIF! Not a good sleep week for me. The impending holidays are giving me some really weird dreams/nightmares. One night my brother was shot by my uncle-to give you an example. Been processing my estrangement more. DS1 is not coming. He's very aloof and that's just the way he...

How are your feeling? I hope you and your family are all on the mend! Not much going on here. I've switched to trying to do Pure Strength for few weeks. The two upper body are both around 40 minutes and the standing portion of the legs without stretch clocks in at 38 minutes. So totally...

Oh my. Please, please, take care of yourself. Don't worry about working out. You need to rest. Even if it's just a cold-rest and drink lots of fluids. Take care, Beth

Wow. How many days have they been quarantining? Have the rest of you been tested? Praying you all get through this. You're doing great pushing fluids. Beth

OMG-I am so sorry to hear about your son. Don't hesitate to go to the ER if he develops any trouble breathing. The younger groups do have more GI issues so hopefully he'll rebound soon. Thinking of you guys.... Beth

Sounds like once you got through Friday night you had a very nice weekend. I had my 3 days off and it was wonderful. I went to bed early every night and felt good on Monday morning. I finished American Rust, made pizza, and just did weights on Saturday and Sunday. It was rainy and cold here...
