Happy Tuesday! Monday was a much needed rest day. Today was another CF day. Tonight we worked on squat snatches -quite challenging. Belinda - You are doing absolutely awesome in your rotation! High fives all around. And especially with everything that has gone while you've been doing it. I...

Happy Sunday! Saturday morning went to ballet class - loved it! Today went to CF with DH. Calves were really tight this morning - must have worked them harder than usual yesterday. But after the lunges and squats in today's wo, the entire legs are just toast. Will be cleaning the house...

Happy Friday! Went to CF again tonight, this time with DH. He usually goes in the morning, but talked him into going this evening with me instead. I'm recovering faster, which is always a good thing. Belinda - Sounds like you had a nice relaxing day. I do modify CF quite a bit - just don't...

Happy Thursday! Tonight I learned that I an not climb a rope, something I could do 30+ years ago. Front squats, box jumps - those I can do. Climbing a rope - just couldn't get the mechanics of the legs/feet to use the lower body, which is one of the keys. I used to be able to do this. I...

Happy Wednesday! Glutes feeling it a bit today, in a good way, so after a long dog walk, pulled out Firm Lower Body Sculpt 1 to give them a light workout (high reps, low weight). As for results, I still need to clean up the diet, but I might see some muscle starting to pop. Clothes a bit...

Happy Tuesday! Was a CF night, and tonight was deadlifts, like 3RM's. Went heavy and loved it! I do like how it is always something different. Belinda - Good wo's today. Looks like the knee is feeling better? Yes, we have too much stuff, too. Waiting for the hazardous waste day in a few...

Happy Monday! WO choice tonight was Firm TBS Lower only plus 5DAbs - Day 1. And dog walks. In the upper 30's with snow showers, so perfect to get them out. Not really windy or accumulating. We are all so tired of this weather. I want spring! Belinda - Getting rid of clutter can be so...

Happy Sunday! Did a 5K with a group of friends today. I walked because I haven't been running at all, but as we were all talking about possible races today, I think DH and I finally have a bit more incentive to get moving. Plus, DH lost to a friend he usually beats, so now he's determined to...

Happy Saturday! Ballet class was a bit tough today. Not sure last night's yoga helped loosen me up, but might have done the opposite since I haven't done it in awhile. Cold here, but the sun is shining. Hope you have a great day!

Happy Friday! After a week of going at it hard, DH and I decided that yoga was a good thing to do tonight. We choose UY Flexibility, and Travis just about did us in. We realized that we haven't done yoga in a very long time, and CF is making us tighter than we realized. Lots of incentive to...

Happy Thursday! Yesterday - wo planned for after work, but needed to rest a bit first (didn't sleep well previous couple nights) . . . and well, that was that. Today - CF was all about shoulder presses. Trainer corrected my technique, and suddenly not feeling any strain, and pushing the...

Belated Happy Easter! Took Sunday as a rest day. Kids came home, and we had a nice relaxing day. Yesterday, Monday, I was off work. Went to CF in the morning, then worked diligently down my to do list. Really could have used a 5 day weekend, cause still had more to get down. Always too much...

Happy Saturday! Yesterday I was off work, so went to CF with DH in the morning, got my hair done (too), ran errands and went out to dinner with DH. But it was fairly early to bed because 2 CF classes that close together wore me out. This morning I went to ballet, but boy was I stiff. Should...

Happy Thursday! CF tonight consisted of intervals of jumping rope and walking lunges. Cardio wise, it just about did me in. Understandably completely exhausted at the end. Hope everyone is doing well!

Happy Wednesday! Cardio Leg Blast tonight. Belinda - Great job on yet another ubwo! ;) Be back tomorrow.

Happy Tuesday! Yesterday was supposed to be a yoga day. DH went out for a run, and when he got back, we planned to do it. However, while he was out, I "needed to rest a few minutes". Needless to say, when he got home, I was out, and there was no moving me for awhile. think the weekend...

Happy Sunday! Yesterday was an off day. DD had a ballroom competition, and she and her partner did extremely well. Looks like she's finally found a guy who also has a competitive spirit and is willing to put in the practice time. However, it involved sitting in bleachers for about 9 hours...

Happy Thursday! Tonight at CF was mostly rowing - rowing intervals, like rowing HiiT. Lots of calories burned on this one. Also got the dogs for a walk. Love these longer days when there's enough light to get it all in without putting the reflective gear on everyone. Yes, the dogs have...

Happy Wednesday! Today did a very brisk walk with the dogs, and followed that up with BBL High & Tight - easy work for the tush. Rest of me doing ok - just tired tonight - so hitting the hay early. Belinda - hope you enjoyed your rest day.

Happy Tuesday! Completely worn out from CrossFit tonight - 200m run, thrusters then jump rope - 4 rounds. From Sunday's wo and last night's run, my glutes had no thrust in them! Belinda - Good job - on the workout and measureing your arms. ;) Bed - it's calling me. Be back tomorrow.
