    Karen, I wish I liked riding my spinning bike more than I do. Do you and your DH still ride bikes outside together? Lol on your surprise front yard guests yesterday! That would have freaked me out, but not as much as the raccoon that was inhabiting Tom's workout basement a couple months ago...

    Hilarious, Tom! Hope your real life prison job is nothing like the show. But you'll definitely be able to kick some @$$ with your new hip if necessary lol

    Oh, I believe it! Endless reps with lighter weights can give deadly DOMS. Keep up your gusto, Tom! I did back, tris, shoulders yesterday and took a walk today. Trying also to make time for deep stretching about 3x/week. It feels great when I actually make it happen! Have a great end of the...

    Tom, you're on a roll! All this stuff seems to be working for you and it makes my tired self leap for joy that you are feeling good. This is so great!!! Yesterday was cardio and today was glutes. Just trying to get the job done as best I can. We've been having another blast of Winter, it needs...

    Karen, that scarf sounds intricate! Would love to see a pic when done. At first I thought you meant temp like Celsius or Fahrenheit lol but now I understand, thanks to your explanation. Wow, you're just jumping straight into the fire doing RWH. You're brave! Your weather sounds worse than up...

    Tom, agreed! Yay Chiefs! During the last 2 minutes, I thought "oh no, Tom must be stressing and cussing at the TV right now!" But they pulled out a win for you! Yep, loved the halftime show. J Lo seriously amazes me. She never ages! Same with Vanna White on Wheel of Fortune lol. Easing my way...

    Giving up on a new Ripped with Hiit from Cathe

    @laurawd I agree with you about Julia. I totally admire HER athleticism, but her workouts are too risky and too extreme for my personal preference. Sydney Cummings is definitely not this way, and very easy to modify to your own desired workout experience to make more advanced or more...

    Tom, sending you McRibs and Twizzlers to help your healing. After all, you gotta stick up on snacks to eat while you watch your team win it all this Sunday! Karen, hello friend. Hope you're not missing FL weather too much. You should've stayed for the Super Bowl! Even if you don't like...

    Tom, great to hear from you, thank you for the update! Hoping that this surgery does the trick for you. Maybe you'll come out of it feeling SO good that you become a cardio junkie???? Lol! Take care and I'm the same way with those pain meds, use sparingly. Karen, good job getting going. I like...

    Did a Bootcamp style workout from Sydney Cummings on YouTube. Karen, I'm behind on my Cathe Live workouts too. She moves so fast and has a lot of high impact stuff. I'll need to build back up to that. Tom, thinking about you. Hope the procedure goes well, all according to plan. Glad for you...

    Aw, Karen @desertambrosia , we love you too! You have been greatly missed but it sounds like you're time "away" was just what you needed. But hey, what's worse, humidity or snow??? So glad you enjoyed some down time and some DH time! You get back to your workouts at your own pace, girl...

    Oh, gross. Ice storms sound awful. It's been dark and dreary here but mostly rain because "too warm" for snow. I'm sorry you're going to be on forced rest but I think you are right that at least your tendonitis might heal up. Plus your level of fitness will probably speed up your healing. Is...

    Tom, my DH just told me that your Chiefs are taking it all the way to the Super Bowl this year. Go team!!!! Yay for you and waiting 50 years for this moment! Hopefully this will offset some of the gloom of your 8 weeks of temporary iron retirement. (But like the Terminator, we all know "you'll...

    Hey Tom, hope you had a good week! Not earning the Iron Woman award over here either, but have gotten in some walks, the lower body I reported earlier, and a bit of upper body. Probably going to go for upper body again tomorrow and then chill until Monday (obviously only referring to workouts...

    Legs and weights done. Did I really like doing this lower body $h!+ before??? Lol, just kidding. Went light and gentle. Lower body DOMS are not welcome right now! Bionic day? Does that mean you're having the hip procedure soon? Okay, makes sense that the football game was with the Texans...

    Tom, at least you got one win! Were the Chiefs playing Houston? My DH was telling me how Houston usually starts out losing and then has to come back late in the game to win it, but that today Houston started strong and died out at the end. He didn't mention who they were playing today though...
