Hardcore Fitness Maniacs July 2026

Hi,

Today I started STS again. I am leaving for a mother/daughter getaway to Miami in August for a few days. DH and Sadie will join a few day’s later, I will stay another week in Miami. I wouldn’t finish M3 on time, I decided to start today. I will be done in no time with M3.

Today I did M3 W1 D25 Chest & Back = 78 min. I am loving the longer rest. I do a few laps around my gym, lol.

Diane - thank you. I got in a few dances I missed due to doctors appointments. Glad I caught up a little. Have fun with your grandson. Great job on your workout.

Debbie - great job on your workout. You can do a home study too. That is what I did. I am getting another opinion in September. I couldn’t get anything earlier than that.

Where is everyone?

Have a wonderful Saturday.
 
Hi all! I took Friday off because I went to Amish Country with my cousins. We had fun but it was hot and smokey with the Canadian wildfires. Here in Ohio it was really bad last week, we couldn't even go outside. It is pretty much gone now.

Today I did RAW Box & Pump 8 and had a great workout. I think that one is almost my favorite B&P workout. I'm back to my normal weights now.

Workout was 42 minutes, burned 329 calories, did 1619 steps and HR was 129/158.

It's quiet here this month.

Roselyn - Please update us on your progress, I really hope you are doing much better by now. Keep us updated.

Jolie - Where are you? I know you have a lot going on with your mom, but update us when you have a minute.

Belinda - Great job with your workouts!! I love Meso 3 as well. I think it's my favorite from the STS series.

Diane - The robo vac I have was only like $499 or something like that. Usually it's around $800 but we got both of the ones we have through that sale. I'm so glad we did, I love that thing. My brother has one that cuts his grass and I can't believe what a great job that thing does with his lawn. He has a huge yard too. Great job on your workouts!!!

Roxie - Where are you?? Hope you are doing ok and having a great summer.

Have a great day everyone!! I am down to my last two weeks off for summer break. I cannot believe it. Where did the time go??

This morning I did RAW Box, Band & Abs and had a great workout. I've always liked this workout. I changed up the ab exercises a bit because I didn't use my bench like she did.

Workout was 46 minutes, burned 365 calories, did 2266 steps and HR was 133/166.

I have been trying to setup my payments section of Shopify where my website is hosted and OMG. My bank is so hard to deal with, wish I would have know that before I opened my account there. And now I can't seem to connect Paypal to it. On the phone with PayPal now. How frustrating!!! :mad:

Belinda - Great job with your workout!! It is incredible how quickly we get our strength back. Nice job!!

Have a great day everyone!

Evening,

I ended up going to the eye doctor. DH insisted I get seen. I have a clogged oil glance. She wants me to dry to put very warm compresses on the site to see if it will go away on its own. If it doesn’t go away in a few weeks, she has to drain it. My Dh ended up in the ER afterwards, he was feeling very sick. We spent most day in the ER. Everything is fine with his heart, they think maybe vertigo. They are not sure? Very fun day. I had all intentions to get a live dance workout in.

Debbie - I am surprised on my gain, considering I started out with every light weights. I did slowly increased it each week. Sorry about your account. You will figure it out. Great job on your workout.

Good night.

I finally got a workout in. We had company here the whole weekend. Yesterday was cleaning day around here and daughter and husband were both off for one more day. I took the day off. Today I did Lauren Strength Training and Cardio (no weight) 28 minutes. That really helped loosen up the tight hips and my legs. that was 28 minutes, 107 calories, 97/144 HR. I then did Strengthen Your Bones and Balance with Dumbbells, 32 minutes, 125 calories. I used 12# dumbbells for most of it dropping to 10# on a couple of upper moves. Total time was 60 minutes, 232 calories.

Debbie, nice work on Raw Box, Bands and Abs. I am sorry working with Shopify and your bank is difficult.

Belinda, great job on Meso 3 and the gains that you have made. I would say your day was not a fun. I hope those things go away.
 
Today I did CDorner Low Impact Cardio (high or low),, 44 minutes, 287 calories, HR 133/158, 4,617 steps. I added a Senior Shape Stretch and mobility quick one, 8 minutes, 24 calories. 52 minutes total time, 311 calories.
 
Today I did Cathe Live #185 - Pumped Upper Body. I remember why I stopped doing these workouts. Everything is so rushed. OMG, she never takes a break. I don't get it. I pause a lot and only did 2 sets instead of three of each segment. Had an ok workout.

Workout was 44 minutes, burned 270 calories and HR was 113/145.

I'm in a rush, had a busy day and it's mot over. Hope you all have a wonderful rest of your day!!
 
Today I did Lauren's Weight Training to build Muscle with dumbbells. I went heavier than what she was using. This was 29 minutes, 119 calories and her Upper Body Strength With 1 Weight 10#, 24 minutes, 121 calories. This moves rather quickly. I am not fond of the circle biceps curl. I think that is why my elbow was hurting for a while. I altered it a bit. Total time was 53 minutes, 240 calories.

Debbie, I always lower weights when the moves are going to fast. More chances of injury. Nice work today.
 
This morning I did RAW Kickbox #3 and had a great workout. Love this one. I didn't workout yesterday, had too much to do.

Workout was 35 minutes, burned 323 calories, did 3541 steps and HR was 145/180.

Have a great day everyone!!

Hi,

Today I did STS M3 Week 2 D28 Chest & Back. I also did a live zoom dance class plus Pilates Mobility for the shoulders. I am beat. Glad to get a 2 day break from lifting, my upper body is pretty sore. Tomorrow I will do Pilates (?) and maybe another dance class I miss on Tuesday?

Debbie - great job on your kickboxing today.

Where is Diane, Roxie, July? Roselyn thinking about you.

Have a great day everyone.

Hi,

Rest day for me today. I met up with DD & her fiancée in Reston. We went to a candle making class today, it was a lot of fun. Easier than I expected to make a candle. We went shopping and walked around Reston. We had a great day.

I bought 3 mother to be wedding dresses, I tried them on today. I have to sent them all back, too heavy for me. Some just didn’t fit. DD didn’t like the dresses either on me. The wedding is in 2 months. Yikes!

Good night.
