Hardcore Fitness Maniacs August 2026

Hi, sorry for not checking in. We had so many problems with the Airbnb, we left on Saturday. A hug cockroach jumped out of DD makeup remover, she almost threw out her back. The host was so rude, luckily I took pictures/videos from the condo. DD contacted the Airbnb directly with videos and texts messages from the host. DD and I checked in The Setai hotel on Miami Beach. It’s a 5 star hotel. They got us a doggy bed and toy for Sadie. I think after our experience at the Airbnb DD is done renting. You can’t beat a nice hotel. I have not worked out since last Friday. Been relaxing and enjoying my stay at the resort. I will try to take another in person dance class tomorrow. I will try to catch up on personals tomorrow.

This morning I did one I haven't done since 2021!! It's RAW Cardio Weight Tabata Intervals and it was ok, pretty fun. It had compound exercises which I really don't care for but this one sort of fun. I changed some of the plank exercises and just did other ab work. I had a great workout.

Workout was 33 minutes, burned 222 calories, did 1499 steps and HR was 122/165.

I also did my hip stretches. Oy, my hips are so tight! I don't get it.

Belinda - OMG with the AirBNB!!! That is crazy. I have the same concern if I try to rent one of those. Usually we just get a hotel, it's easier. Yikes!!

Have a great day everyone!!

Evening,

I am home. I did ended up at the ER today for my right eye. Woke up this morning, could hardly open my eye. It’s so swollen and infected. The doctor at the ER put me on antibiotics tablets and antibiotics cream for my eye. I been googling my eye situations, they keep telling me it’s a stye? I was my eyes twice a day with baby shampoo, massages my eyes to get the oil glance to open up, I put heat on it a few times a day. I do everything I was told to do, why on earth is my right eye swollen too? After doing a google search it could also be inflammatory. I don’t touch my eyes.

Diane - great job on your workouts. I hope your appointment went well. That thing was huge and fast.

Debbie - I‘ll be honest, I tried Airbnb 3 times with my kids, they just not as clean as a hotel, IMO. I am very picky when it comes to cleanliness. Nothing was working in the Airbnb, not even the coffee maker. We got locked out the first 3 day’s, the door look had computer problems. I was ticked off. The condo was in a nice location, very run down, IMO. The host called it wear and tear, lol. cockroaches on the 18th floor beach front, was a no no for us. That thing was huge and so fast.

I will be back tomorrow. I am so tired.
 
Hi,

Today I did a long walk outside. Felt good to move my legs.

I will start Lift, Move and Restore on Monday.

I hope you all having a great weekend. I will try to catch up on personals from last week.
 
Quick Check In. I am tired today which I guess comes with the infusion I had yesterday. I did CDorner Strength total Body, 45 minutes, 194 calories, HR 105/143. I will do a stretch too. Lots to do. We are going to have the walls and ceilings of our house painted after closing, then clean the bedroom carpets. It is tile and wood flooring in the rest of the house. Looking forward to moving in. This is my first workout this week.

Jolie, good to hear from you. I am sure all of the changes is overwhelming. It takes time to adjust to things. Your vacation sounds really nice.

Belinda, nice work on the two live zoom classes. Have fun on your Miami trip.

Roselyn, I hope things go well for you when you get back to your workouts.

Debbie, I am getting a lot of rest right now. I am sure moving is going to be a lot of work when the time comes here so I am not too worried about all of the rest time. There is a surprise birthday party here this weekend for my granddaughter so I am sure I will not get a workout in.
Diane - I did in person live classes at the studio. Which was so cool. My instructor asked me to dance next to her in front of the camera. It was a special experience for DD and me. We also got to hang out after class with my dance instructor and girls from the studio. We went to a nice restaurant and a great time. My instructor also invited us to her house for lunch. She is so down to earth and beautiful. I learned a lot while dancing next to her. She is so cool.
