Hi Everyone,
Today I did more DB with a hard cardio workout. I ended up doing a second workout last evening - DB chest/back + 10 minutes of pilates. I was feeling stressed over something and needed to release the tension. And, I did!
Hmmm question of the day?
What hobbies do you have outside of fitness? Mine are:
Tarot card reading
learning about angels, spirit guides, the after life, psychic development, intuition, numerology etc
Everyday I either read or listen to a podcast on some area of psychotherapy
baking (usually something alternative, wheat and dairy free etc)
That's it!!!!
Have a great day everyone and enjoy your workouts

Good morning Ceci, great workouts ! Have a good day...
Hobbies, outside of fitness, hard one for me, cause most everything I do, has something to do with fitness
, but it would have to be
designing, like interior designing, or I used to design and print (or have printed at a T-shirt shop) my own T-shirts. Not sure reading is
considered a hobby, but I do a lot of that now.
Almost forgot, love to design flower arrangements too. I guess that's why I love the workout blender
So much, I love to "design" my own workouts !

Morning Ceci & Linda. Ceci, I will have to have you read my tarot sometime..you listen to a podcast every day? You sound like my DH who loves podcasts ....and Linda, will you decorate my house? You have the creativity gene!!
Hobbies? I like nature walks, going on history tour walks, I am a (perpetual) amateur herbalist (I like to forage for wild plants like nettle etc. and make soups or tinctures with them), owl spotting/watching, making my own body/skin care, cooking (right now I am enjoying low temp slow cooking), reflexology & massage, reading .. non-fiction mostly, shopping (mainly browsing!) for vintage cardigans and sweaters, re-purposing/cycling glass and I have just began glass casting ...so far it's challenging, and volunteering.

Hi ladies,
Today since dh was home, I took a 45 minute circuit walk with my neighbor/friend. So we got our walk and talk in. Felt good, cooler temperatures and a nice breeze made for a nice walk.
Hummm... hobbies besides exercise....have to be reading (science fiction, of course). I crochet sometimes in the winter when my carpal tunnel isn't acting up.
Have a great day and workout!![emoji16][emoji2]

Hello Everyone! I've been feeling out of sorts in fitness lately so to "set things right" I did Michelle Dozois Cardio Strength #1 from her Peak Fit series. Holy Crap! It worked.
Siobahn- my MIL used to do Tarot cards (when she could see). I always found it interesting. I've watched a few documentaries on angels. VERY interesting. Gives me hope. Linda- please come to my house and help me w/ my flowers!! It is one of my hobbies but I suck at it. I'm happy when things survive my care. Elsie- my daughter used to work for a guy who was a forager. Apparently there is a large group of them in my area. My hobbies???? Fitness (of course), reading, baking, gardening, local history- Vanderbilt, Roosevelt, Astor- all families who lived in my area. Their history is fascinating to me. I guess I'm kind of boring but I like it.
Have a great day everyone.

Hi ladies,
I think my hobbies are known to all already.
Reading- I love to read, any free minute I get, I read... on the train, waiting in line, while cooking... any chance I get. All fiction, but not really ever sci-fi. I am always in the middle of several books and read an average of one book per week.
Magazines - so more reading, but also looking a pictures and collecting patterns, recipes and workouts.
Drawing - mostly cartoon style, or retro comic people. It's been a long time, but once on leave I will make some pictures for the nursery to frame.
Crochet - mainly throws, baby blankets and pillows. I am always in the middle of a few projects and like to make time for it most days while watching Netflix to relax after my evening workout.
Baking - don't do it as much as I used to, but I did bake that carrot cake again yesterday and it was just as good last time. The kids and my colleagues loved it!
Shopping - either in outlet centers or online, lately mostly online. Sometimes I am not sure if it is a hobby, a necessity or an addiction. It's a thin line.
Today's workout was short and low calorie burn, but high burn in the sense of shaking legs. I did Barlattes blitz for thighs, 26min only but I don't think my thighs could have handled anymore. Those Barlattes are great for you, but just not really fun in my opinion, so I don't do them all that often.

I really like the wreath. Really beautiful! Hope you feel better soonI woke up congested with a painful cough. So, no workout today.
My hobbies are in crafts. I make my own cards and scrapbooks. I also recently started making wreaths from pinecones. I'm attaching a couple of photos. I love creating things for other people.

Thanks Annette, I'm making the wreaths for my husband's daughters-in-law, and I'm a little nervous about whether or not they are going to like them.
Missy those are beautiful! I love craft stuff. Of course I have no personal talent. Henriette I'm so sorry to hear the news if your BIL. I hope the family is ok. So sad. And yes!!! I forgot to add my "hobby" of shopping. It's fun, challenging and an adventure. It's the hunt that I love! Thanks for reminding me Henriette.
Oh yes, if shopping is a hobby and I do believe it is, add that to my list! But, mostly I like shopping for fitness
Stuff, usually the kind I can't afford, like the bike from NordicTrack that inclines and declines while your riding it
To simulate going up & down hills..., I am a sucker for that kind of stuff!!! Even though I can't get it, a girl can
Dream!

Great workouts, blenders etc. today girls, Missy - you feel better soon!! Oh, that wreath!!! So lovely! Do you sell them at Fall Fairs? Those go for a lot around these parts.
I'm still not 100% either, no sleep for 24 days now (overnight noise again), monthly pain uggh. Just did some ball rolling today.
Have a nice night all.
Hahaa! That's how I feel about my interests as well, but what is boring to some is what the rest of us may marvel at! : )
