Getting it done for April 2015

Evening!

Just finished my workout:

RWH plyo #2
ifit run: Crater Lake Hwy, Oregon 2.51 miles speed intervals.

Sherry: Nice job on our run! I bet your legs are sore after the run/hill climb home.

Belinda: Nice workout with 21 D fix TB Cardio

Today was a lazy day for me. Watched the running of the Boston Marathon (from my couch) :)

Tomorrow will be a very busy work day. :/

Have a great evening!

Evening!

Hey to you all! How was your Tuesday?

Mine was my Monday. Totally exhausted from work and lack of rest. We had a good thunderstorm over night which woke me up. :/
So I am calling it a rest day.

I hope you had a good day.

Happy Wednesday!

Monday - soccer game away so no wo. Was nice and stiff after run and KW workout so needed rest day. Plus, it was cold, windy, rainy and they lost.

Tuesday - another soccer game, but this one at home so was able to get in a dog walk before I ran up there. It was also cold, windy and rainy, but they won.

Wednesday - no soccer game, so dog walk, sprints on tm (because it's cold, windy and snow flurries!), plus KW Cardio #1. I think they'll work nicely for the next few weeks while I'm in a time crunch because they are a short but fairly intense circuit wo for the whole body.

Belinda - Nice job on wo's as always. You should take them out of the wrapper and try them. They aren't that long.

Heidi - Thanks for the recipe. Will need to try it. Ever go to see the marathon in person? I can only imagine.

Ok, gotta shower and go. Fundraiser for soccer team at a restaurant. Good thing we like to hang with the other parents. Hope you had a good one!
 
Hey ladies,

Today I did 21 Day fix lower and a walk. Before I forget :) Saturday DH and I will drive to Miami for 2 weeks. I can't wait. And yes…I will bring 21 DF workouts :) I hope you two keep posting, lol. I will check in as soon as I have internet.

Heidi - thank you! Looks good. Can't wait to try this recipe. Good job on your workout.

Sherry - it's cold here too :( what's up with this weather? I am dying to try 21 DF Extreme, but DH can't do them right now. His shoulder is all messed up. And the extreme workouts don't have a modifier.


Good night, everyone.

Good evening,

Went to the Endodontists and she thinks it's my wisdom tooth that's causing the pain:( My wisdom tooth is right next to the root canal tooth :) She wants me to wait until August, she believes it could also be the root canal being still sore. Some people have pain up to a year, which I already knew. I hope it's not my wisdom tooth, still have all mine.

Where is everyone?

Oh, I did 21 Day Fix Pilates fix today and a walk.

Good night everyone!
 
Hey! Just finished CycleMax! Plus a dog walk.

Belinda- sound wonderful! I'm sure you'll enjoy, especially the warmth and sunshine.

Waving hi toHeidi!

gotta clean my sweat off. Hope you had a good one.
 
Good morning,

I will do 21 Day Fix Cardio and SBF LB. Maybe I get a walk in too?

Sherry - nice job on CycleMax & dog walk.

Hi Heidi :)

I will be back later.
 
Evening!

Sherry: I haven't gone to a marathon as a viewer. Maybe one day... Every year when my DD was racing we would watch the marathon together. Miss that. Enjoy your days with your kids....time flies by so quickly. Even though we live in the same town I hardly see her due to her work schedule. :/
Sorry about the loss on the game Monday. Yuck on the weather! We are very cold here today. What happened?

Nice job on your KW workouts! Awesome on the cycle workout! You liking your new bike? :)

Belinda: OMG so sorry on your tooth issue. :/ I still have 3 of mine as well. Where one was pulled years ago I still have on and off sensitivity.
Now the other bottom one is moving which is not good. They cannot touch it due to being too close to my nerves and they fear it could make
me go numb on one side of my face. :/
Good luck and I hope that it is a simple fix.

How was your workout and walk this morning? :)

No workouts for Tues and Weds. Thurs was finally RWH chest, shoulder and triceps. Yup feeling my chest today!
No workout today...yet. Have my son visiting this afternoon. I had planned on resting after work and then do my cardio workout.
Not going to happen...now I have a headache. Argh!

Next week will busy with my Mom's appt. tues. and weds I have Jury Duty. I sure hope I don't get picked! Dread this big time! Wish I could
get out of going from now on somehow. :/

Hello to Sara! How are you? How was your trip? Hope you are well.

Have a great Friday Evening!
BBS
Oh tomorrow I am finally getting my haircut! :)
Heidi
 
Happy Friday!

WO's today - dog walk, 3.5 mile tempo run on tm (easier to control pace plus it's cold), and KW core (which I'll be feeling tomorrow).

Belinda - You poor thing - you tooth, DH's shoulder, you two need to be pain free! Did you get than walk in?

Heidi - Yup, kids grow up way too fast! And we all get busy, so enjoy when you can visit.

Gotta shower and hit the sack. The weekend is finally here.
 
Good morning,

Today I will do 21 Fix Dirty 30.

We are still here :) House is clean, everything is packed for the RV. DH noticed last night that the Awning is broken. Today we are trying to fix it and will take off tomorrow, hopefully :)

Thanks Sherry! I guess we getting old, lol. I never got that walk in yesterday, but with all that running around I did…I got 20K in. You are doing great with your walk. Good for you.

Heidi - that's cary about your tooth :( I heard wisdom tooth are a pain in the butt. Sorry you are going through all this with your tooth. Good luck to you too. The funny part is, I don't feel pain in my wisdom tooth. I feel pain in the tooth I had the root canal done?

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me.
 
Happy Saturday!

WO done already - I did Spinervals 16.0, which was 80 minutes on the bike. Quads are really feeling it! Will need to take the dog for walks later, too. Plus, the usual weekend errands.

Belinda - Good thing you are able to take your wo's with you. You are doing a great job of getting them done consistently. Isn't there always something to fix around the house? And usually when you have the least time to deal with it?

Heidi - What are your plans today? Hope the headache is gone and that you had some nice time with your son.

Have a good one!
 
Good evening,

Sherry - good job on your workout today. Hope you had fun taking a walk with your dogs.
It wasn't on the house, it was the awning from the RV :) If all goes well tomorrow we will leave after 21 Day Yoga Fix:)

Heidi - hope you had a great day and workout today.

Good night, ladies.
 
Good morning,

I will do 21 DF Yoga this morning.

:) I will check in as soon as I have internet.

Waving Hi to everyone that checks in after me.
 
Happy Sunday!

So today was a run day - but IT band hurting at knee at about 2.5-3 miles, so had to walk the rest of the way. Feeling bummed. Thought this was behind me. So, thinking about my wo's this week, decided will keep biking to much less than 80 mintues (was that aggravating my hip a bit?) and stopping the KW wo's, going back to legs 2x/week. I think the leg work is critical to continuing to strengthen my hips and glutes. Will need to look at all my premix options due to time constraints, but I do think this is the best approach.

Belinda - Oh, on the RV. Well, you do need that. Enjoy your adventure!

Heidi - how are you hanging in there?

Feeling a bit accomplished on the food front - steel cut oats in the crock pot right now, getting ready for the week's breakfasts.

Enjoy your day!
 
Morning!

Busy weekend for me. Saturday: 3.17 mile run then went to get my hair cut with my Aunt. I ended up with a body wave perm and cut. ;)
My hair needed something!
Sunday: Jillian M. 6 week 6 pack #1. plus a 3.70 mile run.

I am feeling torso all around today! Was suppose to do RWH back, shoulders and biceps but I don't know if that would wise right now.

Sherry: Oh sorry about your IT band acting up. I noticed the same on my right side yesterday during my TM run. I walked a couple times and added a few stretches in between which helped. Next time I run I am wearing a different pair of sneakers to see if it makes a difference.
Great plan with legs and time saver premixes! Biking is a lot harder than you would think. I am only willing to do about 25-40 min. tops right now. 60-80 is way too much to start out on.

Belinda: Have fun with your Yoga WO! :)

I am so busy lately with work issues it is messing with my workout schedule. Last week I missed tues and weds. WO thurs but friday was a bust again. Argh! Hate this schedule.

This week is about the same busy wise. Plus Jury duty on Weds morning! I dread going and sure hope I don't get picked. I honestly can't do it where I am responsible for so much at work and there is no one else to take my duties. :/

Well I better get moving or I won't today! LOL! Legs day for me.

Hello to Sara!

Heidi
 
Happy Monday!

Tonight's wo was CycleMax - yep, a non-run day, and a dog walk. Wanted to also do leg work, but I am starving right now! Chicken is ready (thank you crock pot) and veggies are steaming right now, so not sure that there will be any strength work done tonight.

Heidi - Wow, runs on consecutive days - awesome! Yeah, bummed about IT band, so used the rumble roller lots last night. Hopefully worked it out - I'll find out the next run. I know, jury duty always seems like an inconvenience, but if you are picked, I know you'll do your best.

Waving Hi to Belinda - how's the adventure so far?

Getting DS home from school tomorrow (did he really just finish his first year?), so probably won't get in a wo, but all those trips to the car gotta count for something, right?

Enjoy your day! Spring is really here!
 
Morning!

Sherry: Nice job on your bike workout! :) Glad your IT is doing a bit better too. Wow a year already for your Son in college.Yup I would say that trips up and down stairs carrying heavy boxes counts for a great all over workout. :)
Which chicken recipe did you use this time for your crock pot? :)

No workout for me yesterday. I came home with another darn headache.

As for Jury Duty I get to find out this evening whether I have to show or not. I would do my best if I were picked and I love mystery's as well.

Just finished my WO.
RWH Back, delts and biceps. Phew! My biceps will be talking to me later. LOL!

Off to get ready for work. I hope it a a short day and I get to do another workout later. Planning on a short Bike workout from Studio sweat online.

Hello to Belinda! Where are you? A trip somewhere? I missed that..... I hope your having a great time and I look forward to hearing your adventure story too.

Big Wave to Sara!

Have a great Tuesday!

Good evening,

We are in Miami :) Weather isn't the best :( Oh well! Hopefully it will clear up soon.

Yesterday we did 21 Day Fix TB Cardio and today we did 21 DF Upper Fix. Those workouts are great for traveling in an RV :)

Heidi - we are in Miami for my bday in a few day's :) We are traveling in our RV:) Have fun with Jury Duty.
I will be back in the morning. Good night, everyone.

Sherry - we sure had our adventure with the RV already. Someone in Tampa FL stole 2 lug nut (chrome plated) from our RV :( I backed chicken and turkey breast for the road, this way we don't didn't had to stop for grocery :)

I will check in tomorrow. Good night, ladies.
 
Happy Wednesday!

Yesterday after work, picked up DS and all his stuff. He is now home for the summer. How long will it take for all his stuff to move out of the living room?

Today - dog walk, sprints on the tm, and KW Resistance wo1. Legs have been feeling really good since Sunday, so maybe that was just an off day.

Tomorrow - not sure yet. DD's team has an away game but she won't be playing because she strained her hip flexor at practice the other day. If I do go, no wo and no check-in.

Heidi - So, get picked for jury duty? As for the chicken, just threw it in with chicken stock and some grilling seasoning. Seems to come out better with chicken stock rather than just water.

Belinda - Hopefully it's sunny by now. Glad the RV accommodates the wo's. I remember when you were trying to do STS in the RV - this has got to be so much easier.

Time to shower and wind down. Hope you had a good one!
