    Hello Strangers and Wayfarers! Last week was rough, but I managed to survive. :D Finally got a proper workout in on Friday & Saturday — Body Max 2 both days (60 mins on Fri; 30 mins on Sat). Some weeks are just like that — I get bombarded with appointments and errands and unexpected things and...

    Hi all! * Worn out on Friday so I rested. * Saturday I had DREADFUL PMS so I basically stayed in bed. * Sunday is a rest day anyway, but I was busy with Mass, teaching catechism at our parish, prep for our Super Bowl party, then three hours of cleanup. LOVED THE GAME, THOUGH. What a...

    Hey y’all! Great job Linda and Siobhan! Way to kill it. Linda: Drums AND weights? You’re gonna feel that. But it sounds so fun! Siobhan: Xtrain is no joke! I feel you on the running out of steam part. Well done. You should be very proud. I think I’ve finally figured out my hip issue...

    Good job, Lannette Fit Tower Lean & Mean 34m ICE Muscle Meltdown Biceps I missed the Fit Tower series when it came out and they don’t make the actual tower anymore, so I’ve never invested in the series. Do you like it? And good job on biceps. I know what you’re doing may seem “light”, but...

    STS Meso 2, Week 1, Disc 15, Back and Biceps 54 mins Today was a tough one. I think it’s because this was the first time I’d done back and biceps since my deload. And I’m in a calorie deficit, so maybe not the most energetic (although I felt fine). I’m used to using 20# for biceps. Today I...

    STS Meso 2, Hypertrophy, Week One, Disc 14, Legs — 48 minutes I hate leg day. :D But if I slow it down a little and focus on form and strong reps, I gain strength and mastery. Eventually, that pays off. I just don’t like the struggle to get there. I much prefer to work my arms, which are...

    Finally came up for air to report in. One of those days that started super early and has just been non-stop ever since. Had to take The Boy (15) to his semi-annual neurology appointment. We are rural, so the “big city” is about a 90-minute drive, with traffic and parking deck and time allotted...

    STS Meso 2, Hypertrophy, Week 1, Disc 13, Chest, Shoulders and Triceps 65 minutes IN THE BOOKS! I love love love love love lifting heavy. It makes me so stinking happy. Down another pound this morning, but my workout proved I haven’t lost strength or stamina. So the calorie deficit and macro...

    Super cool, Lannette! Congrats! And the benign tumor shrinkage is noteworthy. Impressive. Yes, I track macros. It’s probably lost up in the long response I gave earlier. I use Cronometer as well. I LOVE IT. Macros are not a percentage, but rather a fixed value for me. Any caloric deficit comes...

    I attribute improvement simply to consistency. That’s it. Consistent training in a modest calorie deficit over time. Super simple. Periodization means I “diet” for 12 weeks with an aim to lose 10% of my body weight, with an emphasis more on cardio than weights, at a daily deficit of about 650...

    Doing something today, don’t know what yet. Meal prepping at the moment. Still have to run errands, etc. Also realized I need to up my weight workouts per week and need to flip around the Workout Manager, but that takes a lot of time and tedious effort on my iPad. I think I’m just going to get...

    IMAX, first half, complete. It actually took an hour this morning between having to stop for children and having to rewind for clarity. The original is really fun, actually! Not super complicated, like 2 and 3, but complex enough to be a good time. The blasts are simpler but still really...

    Getting in the Way-Back Machine in honor of Groundhog Day and doing the original IMAX. I don’t actually think I have ever done that one all the way through! So this should be fun. Will probably abbreviate for time, but will let you know. My lower back has been mad at me with all this step, so...
