I haven't posted but kept up with the single part per day. I had gains in upper body strength but not much on lower body. I had a page from a magazine from 1975 that I have kept all these years. There were 10-12 body weight/floor exercises. You were supposed to do them every day for a month...

Today was triceps. Not sore at all but I couldn't have gone heavier.

I'm back, I didn't give up. The end of August I spent all my time getting ready for a reunion at my house over labor day weekend. We had 30 people at my house for the three days. Only two slept there but it was a crowd. There were many nieces and nephews that I had not seen for years. Of...

Decided not to do another week of single body parts. Today was lite series upper body. Did not like the speed of the workout.

Tuesday was chest and Thursday was back and biceps. Maybe legs today.

When I was 13 I fell on the ice. My hand was on my neck getting the hair out of my coat and my elbow hit the ground. For the last 60 years my neck has hurt, but this last January I pushed on a bone in my neck and it moved. After years of the doctor asking what my pain level was between 1 and...

I don't want to give away my age (of course I already did) but I used to audit Home Federal Savings and Loan in St Louis. You know how long ago that was for savings and loans. Only audits were two different savings and loans and a nursing home. I would go to seminars about audits and they...

Enjoyed today but no exercise. Today was my 52nd wedding anniversary. I asked my 13yo grandson how long he thought I had been married and he thought 35 years. Of course his father is 47, but I don't think he thought it through.

I am a cpa with my own business . I had to work all day to finish payroll taxes. I started about 12:30 this afternoon and it is now 1:15 in the morning. I just love 13 hour work days. Of course it is my fault for putting it off until today, since they are due tomorrow. I normally work 12...

Yesterday was shoulder so today was rest day. I did the warmup from low impact superset cardio after both leg and shoulder day. The warmup is longer than usual and seemed just enough added cardio. We had quite the rain storm today, so tomorrow is picking up a lot of fallen branches. E sorry...

I don't do Cathe's step either. I have a lot of her step dvd's because I bought a set of all her dvd's years ago. If I put one on I have a low step and just move a little faster than if I was walking and not following the routine. Most of my cardio is just walking. What I like about the...

eternal-health welcome and I hope you ( or anyone else) will post with me so we can both continue exercising forever. I really do feel better since I am back to lifting. Today was the start of week 8 with triceps. I really like STS2. I'm not sure if I will do a second 12 week next or a...

I agree. I wonder if Cathe scares off newcomers with the weights she uses. Even though she is advanced, I believe her instructions are so good a beginner could follow her with much lower weights. I lowered my weights a little tonight for biceps. I'm glad I did. I'm not sure I can lift even...

I was sure I posted shoulders. Finished back yesterday and chest today. Really felt shoulders and chest.

Completed legs. I wonder if shoulders tomorrow is an hour.

Still busy emptying my closets and storage areas and then decided to do "spring cleaning". I have run out of desire and my kids can get rid of the rest of my "treasures" when they inherit. Today starts week seven. I have never done a separate body part rotation. Because I take more random...

Just noticed it has been awhile since I posted. I will start week six today.

Since I an 50lbs overweight if I use 10lbs in each hand for squats, that is the equivalent of 35lb dumbbells.

When I was 14 my father died and I decided to sell my bike to get some money. They paid me $15 in Kennedy half dollars. Other than buying my mother a Christmas present I didn't spend the rest of that money. Guess what I found in cleaning out my office closet ? Yes those half dollars. It was...

Just finished an advanced Cathe step from 1988. Of course I only kept moving for the hour, I had to adjust all the steps. It was nice to see Cedie again. Thank you nickisteen and Lannette for the encouragement.
