Fitter 40s Jumping into January

Sorry Mary the people that bought it are closing the doors February 1st. My computer crashed last night while I was typing.
 
I had some step ADD, started Imax2, did 1/2way thru, then BM2 timesaver, only did w/u and 1 time thru the finished product, quit. I'm hurting between my shoulder blades. More DOMlike and fatigueish. (love my made up words?). I had bi Doms yesterday so not surprised at the back doms/fatigue since I sewed too (when I thread the embroidery machine my arms are held up a lot). Snowing today. It's pretty, yea, I'll still take the few snow/cold days than that hot humid florida weather anyday!
 
Ronne, I bet as a work at home person you don't have a big wardrobe since you don't need it for work. I'm not wearing a lot of my work clothes (even though they are casual) anymore. I live in PJs or yoga pants :)

Mary, our house is only 1 level so not a stretch to wander to the kitchen. I did sleep like a rock last night, yea!
 
Hello

Mary - good workout! It's nice to feel a bit fitter, isn't it? Hope the snow doesn't get any worse.

Lisa - it's funny you should say that. When we emptied our wardrobes recently to get ready for the new furniture, it turned out that DH has twice as many clothes as me! He takes up two thirds of our new wardrobes. I don't spend as much money on clothes as I used to. When I get dressed after a workout, my criteria is 'Am I going out of the house today?' and I get dressed accordingly :)

Did TBTLO. Don't need to do the gymnastics run tonight as DD has got a careers event at school.
 
Good morning! Today did MIS, an oldie! Ronne, I honestly just wear workout clothes almost everywhere! They are just so comfortable and I have some nice ones that look better than my jeans! Lisa, if I didn't have to go up and down the stairs I might join you in the midnight snack! Hello to Roxie, Jody and Murphy! Not much here, back to work next week, . I do like being at home. Hope everyone has a good day! Mary
 
Good afternoon

Mary - do you have a uniform for work? Are you actually in a hospital or a teaching institute?

Did XTrain BS Bis & Tris plus Core 1. I'm having some problems with my right wrist and hand so had to be a bit careful (I know, another dodgy body part!) It's been gradually getting worse, I might have to go to the doctor.
No great plans this weekend. Probably take a rest from workouts, maybe do some yoga.

Good morning! Today did yesterday's CATHE live, tough and fun! Ronne, hope your wrist is ok. Do you remember hurting it? Or just wear and tear? I am in the hospital with the students so I wear scrubs, a bit like Jammie's all day! Lisa, is it 4 more days? Are you counting the hours yet? Roxie, are you still enjoying your new job? Hello to Jody and Murphy! Only 2 basketball games this weekend! Hope a good one for all! Mary
 
Good Afternoon,

Round two of antibiotics starting today so tired of coughing a feeling like crap. Dh is looking at another boat this one newet and better condition then ours.

Ronne-take care of that wrist.

Mary-I wear scrubs all day to and as for the job its ok.
 
Rwh cst yesterday, ft today. Lunch with BFF today so running behind. Mary, yes 4 more sleeps. Can't wait to get my house uncluttered. Ronne , funny I do same after shower. Am I going out, if not PJs are very temping to put back on (and sometimes I do, don't tell) Roxie, you've been fighting this for a while! No workouts this weekend just enjoying DH before he flies to Mexico again ( he gets in late tonight, heads out early Monday morning)
 
Good morning! Today did RWH HIIT circuit UB. Lisa, can you travel with DH? I love Mexico! Roxie, isn't it nice to wear scrubs? No thinking needed! Hope you feel better. Hello to all, hope a good weekend! Mary
 
Hi everyone, I did the firm volume 1, a blast from the past. I plan to do the rest of the first series. It was a nice change. The lower body was still tough, I will feel it tomorrow. By the way, I had my port taken out last week. It was an in office procedure and not too bad. I had to take a week off from any ub work (so of course I slacked the whole week). I watched my diet at lost 1/2 pound so that was nice. Let's see if I can repeat that next week.

Waves to all.
Murphy
 
Good Afternoon,

I did a 30 minute run/walk on the TM and Turbo Fire Stretch 10.

Lisa-my bike is a Bladez Fitness Incite GS from Sports Authority.
 
Did a leisure ride on my bike for 30 min. My assistants were around and I could not get anything done. It is my fault for sleeping in late. Got run. Waves to all Murphy.
 
Hi everyone

Mary - I think it's RSI, up the back of my right hand and into the wrist and a bit down my arm as well. I'm working out what makes it flare up and trying to avoid it!

Roxie - hope you start to feel better soon. I know what having a cough like that is like.

Lisa - I do put proper clothes on, just not ones that I'd go out in! I am working so I think PJs would make me want to slack off. Nearly there ... ;) Hope DH's Mexico trip went well. You're not tempted to go with him?

Murphy - glad to hear your news.

Didn't do much this weekend.Took a break from exercise. Got a nice compliment from DH, he asked if I'd lost weight, he'd noticed my shoulders were looking more defined!
Did AB today. I can't say I found it any easier! I skipped the second round of burpees to save my wrist.
 
Hello! Today did PS legs, yesterday was YR. Ronne, I'm going to have to google RSI! Is it like carpal tunnel? I hope it improves quickly. Murphy, I do like that first Firm, covers everything! Roxie, are you enjoying your new bike? Lisa, they leave today? Tomorrow? Do you have to help move? Happy week to you! Jody, did you get lost in the hospital hallways? Murphy, are you going to get hit with the storm? Totatly avoiding us, be safe! Good day to all, getting my roots done today! Mary
 
Hi, Saturday the kids (and her parents) moved most stuff up from the basement to the moving truck and garage. I have my workout space back, it isn't organized yet but I have room! I can roll around like a pig rolling in mud! They do the official move in tomorrow. No we aren't helping, DH in Mexico City. No no interest in going to mexico city, they have an escort taking them around and told them to remove all jewelry even wedding rings. Saturday I didn't do anything, Sunday a walk, today XT SC and a long walk (it's gorgeous here, spring in January, gotta love it!). Mary, funny lady you are.....Jody lost in hospital hallways! Ronne, I'm confused about your wrist thingie going on. OK, I'm confused in general but about that too. PJs made me lose focus on staying trim if I wear them too much :) Murphy, sometimes you just have to sleep in. I'm so glad I don't have to get up anymore, was awake from 2-4 last night again, thank goodness for being able to sleep in! Roxie, glad you found a spin bike!
 
Did the firm volume 2. It was good, was not sure what size weights to use. I was a bit sore from volume 1. I think I will mix these in more. Because they seem to hit the muscles differently. Plus, it is not as much jumping, I feel like my body is getting a break.
Anyway, assistants are around and the snow storm is coming. No work or school tomorrow. State of emergency.

Lisa - glad you got your space back.
Roxie - you have a new spin bike?
Ronne - I am not sure if AB ever gets easier.

Waves to all.
Murphy
 
Good Evening,

I did KCM Circuit Burn 2 before work.

Murhpy-yes I am expecting a spin bike any day now.

Lisa-at least its a start.
 
Hi all

Mary - yes, RSI covers carpal tunnel and other things (it's Repetitive Strain Injury).

Lisa - I think I've worked out how I got it. I've been doing a lot of word puzzles recently, sat on the sofa with the book leaning against my knees, writing with my hand vertical. I did one last night and my hand killed. So I'm taking a break and watching it with the computer mouse as well. Also biceps curls can hurt as well, so am being careful with those as well. Enjoy the empty house!

Murphy - hope the snow storm isn't too bad!

Roxie - I like that workout.

Did FT today. There's a lot of shoulder work in there.
Had to make an emergency orthodontist appointment for DD, her wire's come out.
Going to the cinema tonight, Foxcatcher. Anyone seen it?
