Today I did CDorner 20 minute Fat Burning Step Aerobics(Her website calls it Stocking Stuffer Step), 22 minutes, heart rate 121/145, 109 calories, 2,627 steps. I then did Raw Glute Finisher, 24 minutes(I accidentally stopped it midway to go drag in presents off the step so added it together) 75 calories, heart rate 80/125, 935 steps. I finished with CDorner Feel Good Stretch and Mobility ( Miraculous Mobility) 21 minutes, 25 calories, heart rate 70/94. This used a chair for all of it, but I did fine just sitting or having my feet on the high step. I keep forgetting when they picked up at thanksgiving they put the folding chair I kept in my secondary workout room by my art table. I got my new Blu-ray player and set it up. It has bluetooth, but I couldn't figure out how I was supposed to add apps to it. I put the other one, since it started working, in the secondary workout room. They are both similar, except the new one has a few more features. I am set for dvds though. The other one I have Youtube app on. I will figure it out. I kept waking up last night and was looking at the clock at 2 am. I even took a Qunol sleep gummy. Wonder if it is because I took Alpha Lipoic Acid before bed. Anyway, I got up and went back to sleep in the recliner and did not wake till 10 AM. Wasted a lot of my day. I am still tired.
Total time today was 67 minutes, 209 calories, 3,562 steps.
Debbie, I am glad that you are getting the mri soon. Hopefully it will be something that you can correct. I really liked my hanging heavy bag. I had a stand and it did had a set up for a weight at the bottom. but I never did use it. When I upgraded form a 50# bag to 100# it did not swing all that much. I did see Kelly with hers rigged with a dumbbell for the weight. For space I now have the sand filled free standing one. There is a lot of stuff going around. I hope to avoid it. I am glad you feel better.
I have to remind myself that I am not working out like I used to when I did lots of impact and would hit workouts really hard to get the high burns and heart rate up there in the 170's. My body just cannot take that right now. I don't know if it ever will. It is not worth breaking something or causing myself harm. We have about a 50 % chance of snow on Thursday. I am hoping it does not stick. It looks like the sun won't come back out till Sunday. The Negg Peeler says to bring the water to a boil then put eggs in it with a slotted spoon, cook 11 minutes or may be adjusted up or down a minute due to egg size. Take them out when done with a slotted spoon and put in bowl of ice water. Then it says when cool can be stored for a week to be peeled later or peel immediately. Interesting at
www.neggmaker.com they sell some egg seasoning mixes and have recipes. I never thought of making cajun seasoned or curry seasoned deviled eggs.
Jolie, take care of yourself. Having chest pains and shortness of breath issues does not sound good. Good idea to make sure you are not contagious when having Christmas with your parents. I remember when I had covid and the family ended up celebrating Christmas in January. My daughter in law and some of her other family all had been sick during and after the wedding and rehearsal dinner. Some were diagnosed covid and she was diagnosed Inluenza A. So far we all were lucky on our side even though we were all around her and her guests and wedding party group. Everyone was okay when we did Christmas Sunday. Taking a break to get health back sounds like a really good idea.
Doreen, nice work with the bike bootcamp and Christmas Circuit 12 days of Christmas workout.
I remember doing a Yvette workout a couple of years ago that I really liked and she used Christmas music. I am always a little disappointed when the workout itself is titled Christmas and there is nothing in it that makes me thing of Christmas.
Cam, nice work on Penny No Repeat, No Equipment killer hiit workout. Nice that the exercises were lower impact for the most part. I liked the CDorner step workout. She has done most of the moves in other Saturday step workouts, but she always manages to change it up and it takes me a bit to get it down. I think the other girl was just finding the moves a bit difficult to follow. It did seem Chris added to the moves fairly quickly on that one. Although I have seen both of her guests on there with her quite a bit. I usually do not mind Chris' Step Hiit and Step and weight workouts. Many of those are doable unless she decides to do squat thrusts and burpees. There was a time when I did a lot of those moves and many reps of them in succession. Now I try to avoid to much of that type of work. I don't know if she has the step workout playlists in categories. She may. I am pretty sure that the ones that are mixed with weights would have a category.
Roselyn, nice work on Caroline posterior chain.
Belinda, praying for you. I hope you are feeling better.
