    I'm off work today! This morning I did RWH BSB and abs#1 and a 20 min Peloton ride. It was nice to ride again. My dr. visit was good, my cholesterol is still trending up. She recommended more cardio as cardio exercise has a higher impact on cholesterol than weights. It's just hard to find...

    I've really been struggling with sleep and low energy lately. I haven't had the energy for a good weight workout in a few weeks. I have been walking though, seems that is the only thing I have energy for. Last night I did take melatonin and slept all night. It was great to have a full nights...

    The workout yesterday was named Mega Full Body Buy In. It is one of my favorites and a toughie. I do every third week or so when I want to switch things up. Today I finally got RWH BSB and abs #1. We are getting ready to head out to my birthday lunch and to throw axes afterwards. It...

    It's been an okay week so far. Mon I did RWH legs, Tuesday I walked 3+ miles around the lakes. I wasn't feeling very well yesterday so I didn't do anything. I was just very tired and feeling run down. I feel much better today, perhaps because I took the day off and got to sleep in. I'll be...

    Yesterday I did a cardio/leg circuit. I haven't been getting in much cardio except for all the walking I did on vacation. Today I did RWH CST and abs#2. Not sure what I will do for the rest of week. I just alternate UB and LB and try to throw in some abs. I'm trying to be more consistent...

    Today is my off Friday. It was nice to sleep in. I woke up at 7:15. I love waking up in the 7's. It's been a pretty lazy day. It is raining all weekend, but the temps are nice and cool. Just can't really do anything outside. Today I did STS 2.0 UB2. I didn't get around to until this...

    I'm in a training class this week T-TH. It sure makes for long days. Honestly it is so hard to learn so much at one time. I can't remember all this stuff. I was able to do lower body weights at lunch. It was nice to lift again. Sunday I just pulled weeds and mowed the lawn. Yesterday I...

    I'm still struggling with hip pain. I'm beginning to wonder if the hip pain, si joint & piriformis pain, and hip flexor/groin pain and even my knee issue is all related. It's all on the right side. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to when the pain occurs. Sometime I get that...

    Your book sounds very interesting. I do follow an OBGYN that now focuses her practice on menopause care. She provides the science behind her recommendations. The heat has been awful here too. Thankful we have air conditioning. We've also been getting some evening rains that has been nice...

    Wednesday was UB2, Thursday LB1, today I did a circuit. It was only 45 minutes but had a lot of cardio in it. Pushup/burpee/row/dragon press really gets the heart rate up as does kettlebell swings and weighted step ups. I've been doing mostly weight training to raise my resting metabolic...
