    Damage Control

    Yesterday was a back and biceps workout and 20 minutes of cardio. Today will either be legs or CST. I'm thinking legs since those w/o's are longer and I can do CST tomorrow. Everything I ordered for the basement has arrived! The start is scheduled for either Oct 10th or 11th. I'm really...

    Yes, Prom is in the spring. This is for the fall Homecoming Dance. I think its on the Oct 7th or 8th. The girls are very excited. I don't like that it is getting dark earlier either. It makes it so I can't walk after dinner. I tweaked my back this morning just getting out of a chair...

    I replied a few days ago but never hit enter. Anyway, I've been getting in about 4 to 5 workouts per week and am learning to good with that. Yesterday was legs, German volume training. It was 10 sets of 10 reps of squats, lunges, deadlifts and step ups. I used 95lbs for the squats and...

    No workouts M-W. Monday I had a blood draw and have a followup appt with the Dr. next week to review them. This is for the testosterone and sermorelin that I'm taking. My skin has improved and I feel much stronger. I weighed on the in body scale and my muscle is slightly increased. I am not...

    I was off work until yesterday. My original plan was to go to Maine but DH didn't want to. I took the time off anyway. I did help DS2 move apartments. He lived on the third floor, only stairs and I did a lot of them. Since I have a bad knee, I could only carry small/light weight items and...

    I've had a very hectic week as well. No workouts M-W. UGH. I hate when work gets in the way of my workouts. We found out my dear MIL has bladder cancer. She was in the hospital the other day because she was in so much pain and couldn't relieve herself. They sent her home with a catheter...

    My son just set up the Peloton last night and I didn't have a chance to try it out yet. I think I will get the seat settings right for me and give a try on Friday. He said you can take a free class and that's probably what I will do. As far as your bike goes, what about just getting a bike...

    Oh my gosh, I didn't realize it had been so long since I checked in. Work has been very busy, really ramping to get some year end goal completed. I had a late night Thursday, worked until just after 11. My workouts are becoming more intermittent which I don't like. I am still getting in...

    Where does the time go. I missed a few workouts this week for Dr. appts. Annual mammogram is done and a follow up with the Dr. to go over my labs and some skin abnormality removals on my face. UGH. My cholesterol is a little high, a little higher than last year. My Dr. told me to limit full...

    We are back from the mountains. It was so nice to escape the heat for a week. I did plenty of walking every day-45 minutes to 2 hours. I even did a couple of my row app w/o's. They have mat workouts, core etc, things you don't need the machine for. I also did some ab workouts from the...

    I tweaked my back the other day, pulling weeds I think. I had a few days off from workouts. My back was feeling better today so I did a cardio/bi/tri ab circuit that was pretty good. I'm really looking forward to STS 2.0 was glad Cathe finally gave another update. I've been using my new...

    I've been to Chicago but would love to go back. I've never been to Nashville or Mt. Rushmore. Whenever we can make it happen it will be a fun trip for sure. I had my weigh in with the hormone Dr. and my weight was up just over a pound, but my muscle had increased and my bodyfat had decreased...

    I've been doing a lot of heavy lifting and less cardio. It's been a body part split and I'm thinking full body is sounding good to me. My weight is pretty much the same. My body is just covered in fat so I'm hoping the Testosterone shots and sermorelin will help. It hasn't even been a month...

    My appt went very well. My muscle mass is good, but my bodyfat% is high. The Dr. doesn't think I need to lose 40#'s which is good. That would not be a maintainable weight for me. I would be good with 20-25#'s. My labs showed my testosterone was barely measurable. I'm taking testosterone...

    Seriously, where does the time go. It's been a hectic week. My internet was out on Monday so I only got in 4.5 hours of work. Yesterday was supposed to be my off Friday, but I had so many things that needed to get done, and it was patch Friday. Patching is so stressful, takes so long and...

    Oh gosh, just busy with life. I'm doing the June Challenge on the platform I'm following right now. It's heavy weights with 20 min of cardio at the end. The alternate days are weight based cardio, so lower weights, high reps and compounds to keep us in the fat burning zone. I'm able to squat...

    Well I've been getting in 5 or 6 workouts each week and feel good about that. I am giving up alcohol for the month of June. I found a Dr. that will do a hormone panel. I currently have a very low dose estrogen patch, but the hot flashes are getting much worse and not sleeping is problematic...

    The girls had 8th grade continuation on Thursday morning. I took my MIL and we enjoyed the ceremony. Then my MIL and I went out to lunch and DS took the girls and their best friend to downtown Denver. They had a great day. That afternoon I had sclerotherapy, hoping to get rid of this deep...

    Sorry I've been MIA. Just working, errands, household stuff etc. I've been getting 5 or 6 days of workouts each week. I try to get to Yoga on Sunday mornings and Monday nights, and one additional day during the week. My rower arrived and DS1 put it together for me. I've done the first 2...
