Getting it Done for November!!

Hey girls,

I did Sarah Ivanhoe'e On the ball yoga = 45 min:D It's nice outside, I will take my dogs for a nice long walk later.

I'll see you in the morning. Have a great Wednesday!
 
Good morning!

Well, on Tuesday I was indeed released from PT. Now I'm on my own to continue with my exercises and ramp up slowly with my running. Last night I was exhausted - not sure why - so made it a rest day. Plan tonight is to do that shoert, easy run.

Belinda - great job on you wo. Is that cold gone yet?

Heidi - what are your plans?

Catch up with you later. Have a good one.
 
Morning!

Tues and Weds were super busy so no w/o's to report.

Today I did XT burn sets for bi/tri. This was suppose to be for tues.

Belinda: Nice job on the yoga! :) Enjoy the weather! :) It is warm here too but very dark and may rain soon.

Sherry! Yeah you made it through PT! ;) Enjoy your run tonight and keep up the good work for your ITBand.

Off to shower and work.

BBL
Have a good one!
Heidi
 
Good afternoon,

Workout is done:) I did UB recovery. I enjoy the shorter workout today.

Heidi -well done! I may add Xtrain once I am done with this rotation? My DVD's are still in shrink-wrap:eek: It was nice yesterday, not sure what happend today...it's raining:confused:

Sherry - Woohoo, you made it through PT!! Enjoy your run this evening. Sure miss running. My cold is still hanging:mad: around I am coughing a lot the last few day:eek:

I'll see you all tomorrow. Have a wonderful day/workout. BBL!
 
Run done, earlier tonight. It felt good, but ITB was tighter afterwards, so lots of stretching and rolling. Will need to do that again tomorrow.

Heidi - Love that bi/tri wo. You'll be feeling that in the tri's tomorrow. Kind of funny how it's never the bi's.

Belinda - Darn cold! At least you were able to get in an UBWO today, so it's not holding you back too bad.

Time for bed. catch ya tomorrow.
 
Good morning,

Today I will do TB and abs.

Sherry - wtg, on your run! Good for you for stretching your ITB. You probably will have to do that for a few more weeks.

Heidi - have fun with your workout today.

I will be back later. Have a great one.
 
Good morning!

This morning I woke up with an aching hip - not the middle of the ITB like it has been recently. A bit concerning, but doing better now - perhaps a combination of Advil and stretching?

Also, decided to take a fitness test at the facility here at work now that PT is over and I'm released to exercise. That told me 2 things - 1) I've fallen back to nearly identical performance in all aspects to where I was 2-1/2 years ago when I took the last test (meaning I've deteriorated over the summer when I was traveling all the time - which I knew), and 2) while I ok for a woman of my age, I no where near like the "lack of" results.

So, plan is to altenate running with some "beginner" strength work while continuing PT exercises. Think I will be pulling out my Firms before upgrading to Cathe.

Belinda - you are doing great! Keep it up!

Heidi - what are your plans today?

Oh, and Clean Eating arrived in the mail yesterday (new co. honored subscription) and there are a few crock pot recipes that look worth trying. That should help with my nutrition struggles.

Have a good one!
 
Morning!

Just finished my workout for today:
XT legs standing portion only. Just the warm-up got me! LOL
Then followed up with a Z beginner #3:

Beginner workout # 3: 12 minute AMRAP "As many rounds as you can"
•10 (each leg) Backward Lunges with Kick-Up [Keep your chest up and shoulders back, step back and kick straight up, then after 10 reps switch sides]
•12 Plank alternating Side-Steps [Get into the plan position, then do side steps]
•20 alternating Weighted Squat-Raise [Grab your weight, put it next to your left leg, and squat down, keeping your back straight, and lift it across your body, raise your arm up, then put it next to your right leg. Then do the same but towards the left leg]

Last but not least: a 20 min easy TM run to unthaw my legs. Finished with the XT legs stretch.

At work now...

Sherry: Yup that can happen and did to me in just a month of taking it easy due to my cold. Feel so weak!
Going back lighter weights and less reps will help to start. Mixed up with easy running too. Sounds like you have a good plan ahead. :)
Ooooh! crock-pot recipes? Do tell! :)

Belinda: Great job on your workout! :) You have really been sticking to it lately and doing great. :) How is the foot and back issues? Sounds like they are much better. :)

Well back to work!
Have a great FRIDAY!

Heidi
 
Good morning,

I will do cardio and upper body today.

Heidi - great job on your workouts yesterday! How are you feeling today after all those workouts? Back is doing great, my foot is still bordering me:confused: Thanks for asking.

Sherry - have fun with your workout. How is your foot feeling?

Waving Hi to everyone that follows.
 
Hi all!

So today, leg is feeling good. Which is good because we were up at 6:00 this morning to get to DD's soccer game. Then it was off to buy a new car because the old one . . . well, it was time. After that, all I wanted was a nap. I did Firm BSB a bit ago, but now all I want is sleep, again. Throat is also scratchy, so worried that I'm coming down with something. Not good, 'cause I have photos to get together for the cross country banquet next week, and basically have this weekend to work on it. Not good. but at least leg is feeling good.

Belinda - How did the cardio go today? How'd the back and foot do? Is that cold gone yet? Yes, I am taking it slow, hence starting back with the Firm workouts before heading into Cathe.

Heidi - Can you move today? That's a heck of a workout yesterday. I'll let you know about the recipes from the mag once I get a chance to try them.

Not sure if I'll be sitting at the computer sorting thru photos or heading bed soon. Either way, hope you had a good one.
 
Lol! Belinda: that's all I can do! I am so sore! If I sit for a short time getting up and moving is a challenge.

How was your workout? :)

I called it a rest day and just did house catch up.

Hi Sherry! How are you doing today?

Bbt
Have a great evening.
Heidi
 
Hi all!

Today was kind of laid back, as this morning I wasn't feeling so hot. Spent the day doing laundry and sorting thru photos for cc banquet next week. I did manage to get in a dog walk and a 1mile easy run on the tm later in the day, so I must be feeling a little better. However, I am now wiped out and heading to bed.

Belinda - did you make today a rest day?

Heidi - Hope you enjoyed yours. LB still sore at the end of the day?

Hope you had a good one.
 
Morning!

Sherry: Nice job yesterday even though you weren't feeling all that great. :) How are you feeling today? I hope that you are better.

Yesterday was another rest day for me. Except for the usual house stuff to do. The never ending piles of dishes, dust and laundry. :)

Belinda: How are you doing today? What are your plans?

Today I will do Hard Strikes workout. This should help with the legs and arms.

Make it a good one!

Heidi
 
Good morning,

Sorry for not checking in this weekend. Sunday was my husbands bday and Saturday we had Alesia's bday Everyone was off yesterday. Lot's of family time. Sunday we played golf for 5 hours. I was excused by the end, it was very windy. I was beat by the time we got home.

Today I will do KB and abs.


I will be back later and catch up on personals. Have a wonderful day and workout.
 
Hi all!

Yesterday was a rest day for me. All I did was roll out the leg. Not sure if this cold is coming or going. If it stays like it is now, I should be able to get in some weight work tonight - one of my Firm Bodysculpts. Since we had our first dusitng of snow last night, need to get in shape for shoveling. LOL!

Heidi - did hard strikes work out the kinks in the arms? Or did the weekend chores add to the aches and pains?

Belinda - sounds like you had a nice weekend. Glad your body is back to letting you go out and do things like 5 hours of golf.

Hope you have a good one.
 
Hey girls,

10 Pounds Slim Down Xtreme Core = 40 min and 10 Pounds Slim Xtreme Total Body = 40 min done. The core workout was tough.

Sherry - I ended up taking a rest day yesterday too. Now I am trying to play catch up:confused: You already have snow:eek: Not looking forward to that white stuff:p you can keep it all! Oh no, I wasn't walking 5 hours on the golf course, you also have to wait for other to pass if you slower:D We were 5 people playing. Hope you get your workout in today.

Hi Heidi!

I will be back in the morning. Have a great day.
 
Good morning!

By yesterday afternoon, this cold was hitting me hard. I managed a dog walk when I. Got home, but that was it. Darn sinuses! So no promises on today - if rest gets this thing over faster, then rest is what I'll do.

Belinda - 40 min of core work?! Way to go! I bet that was tough. What cardio do you have planned for today. The snow was really just a heavy dusting, so not much to complain about - yet. :)

Heidi - what are your plans today? I haven't tried those crockpot recipes yet - that would require thinking whichat the moment the head is having trouble doing.

Have a great one, gals! Check back later.
