Today I did Kelly's
RAW Weights 1 In the Garage althought it's just called
Weights 1 now. Took me forever to find it and figure that out. LOL!! Great workout, I really love this one.workout. However, there is something major going on with my left side. My shoulder, triceps, upper back feels like it's all on fire. I was fine until I did this workout so obviously, something is going on and I need figure it out. I have flexibility, although there is tightness in the top of my shoulder. I may have overstretched my triceps, this happened a while ago but now seems to be an issue. When this COVID crap is over (when will that be?) I think I'll make an appointment to have an x-ray done. I don't know what to do anymore, nothing seems to help for long.

I've done this workout several times and always skip the leg portion due to time. Glad I got it in today, felt great!!! Workout was 56 minutes, burned 356 calories (holy cow, what's that all about?), HR was 126/186. Did 1225 steps.
Belinda - I forgot it was December when I posted yesterday. LOL! Days are flying by. We'd like to go to Hawaii for our 25th anniversary. He has a sister that lives out there but not sure we will be able to with COVID. Maybe by May this will be more under control. We'll see.
Jolie - So you are "running" on your elliptical, not your treadmill? That is great that you are going to do this, but there is a HUGE difference from actually running versus the elliptical. I've done both, and there is a big difference. However, that being said, I think using the elliptical is much safer on all the joints involved. I enjoy using my Max Trainer as a substitution for running. My knees no longer hurt, my hamstring is fine. So GOOD FOR YOU!! I almost want to do it with you. If you have a running plan, can you let me know what it is? Maybe I will follow along with you. Nice job yesterday, that was a great couple of workouts you did!! I use the RAW workouts on Roku using the VHX app. However, Diane said her VHX app doesn't work for her anymore so I'm not sure how you would use it. It's worth getting, though, I know you would love her workouts.
Roselyn - I agree, you need to post your weights.
Great job on your workout!! Hope you had a nice birthday.
Diane - I totally ignored my FB today and look at the calorie burn I got. I am trying not to let that get to me anymore, it really distracts me from my workouts when I keep looking at it to make sure it's seeing my HR. I honestly don't think the FB is any more accurate than those old chest strap ones we used to wear. I think they all suck. LOL!! Nice workouts yesterday, though, you are kicking it lately. I don't have eggweights, nor will I buy them. I have soft 1# dumbbells and love them. I think I ordered them off of Amazon and they were cheap. They have sand in them so they conform to your hands and they are easy to hold. I have hot pink ones.
Have a great day everyone!!!
