Today I did Jessica Smith Walk Strong and Have Fun: steady ready go, 31 minutes, heart rate average 144 max 173, 207 calories met 7.9, , 3,187 steps. I then did Lite Strong Body Stacked Sets Lower body, 45 minutes, met 5.1, 975 steps, 203 calories. Total time was 76 minutes, 410 calories, 4,162 steps.
Last night my internet went out and when it started back up I had to reboot the system. Only my husbands laptop, the television, and Roku worked. Everything else did not work. I kept shutting my computers down and nothing I did would get the internet back up. Troubleshooting told me what I already knew. So, this morning I got up and internet was still down on my laptop. I unplugged the system and hooked back up and that time, I got things running. I was thinking that I was going to have to go to Cox link to reset the system. Anyway, I was off the internet last night. My grandson came over and my husband was off, we went to my grandson's house and helped get the trampoline grounded and set up the basketball pole. Then we came home and I stuffed myself with cheesy bread and cinnamon bread since all I had was a zone bar today. I will have to be careful tomorrow. I am sure I will pay tonight. I don't know what came over me.
I chose lower body today and a lighter cardio to let some things have a break. I am thinking maybe I won't do chest and shoulders as they get work with PT exercises and stretches. My shoulders were a tad sore after the triceps and back. Not terrible, but I think a couple of days at least off of those areas might be wise.
Carolyn, I tried getting up without my legs crossed and I almost think it was easier with them crossed. I think that is a balance thing. I tend to avoid putting my knees through motions that might hurt or twist them.
Valerie, that was a long climb. Yes, maybe it is like those levitation holds. I was never very good at those pistol moves either. Better on one side than getting that low and back up on the other side. It seems there is road work going on around here all of the time. I need to check and see if they ever finished the road I would drive to our next ladies game day. This one is the furthest away in another city. Last time it had rained so much and the road literally had washed out. I rode with someone else that took the turnpike and a completely different route.
Deb, I had a night mare about Jury duty after you started talking about Grand Jury. I guess because I won't drive downtown. I was trying to get a hotel nearby the court house downtown and kept getting lost in the dream. I hope that never happens. I did get lost in the basement of the courthouse last time when I was supposed to meet my son in law for lunch. I took stairs instead of elevator and somehow got all turned around. He had to find me. At least I could get up without my hands. But, I did end up on my knee because I was trying to not twist the knee. I think I should have had the other knee on top. I remember pricing Plate Mates and thinking I could just get more weights. I have 1 and 2# dumbbells that have the loop handle and have used them for a small weight increment on my barbell and dumbbell bars that I put weight plates on.
Judy, glad the Peloton is up and running again. I really like the Jessica Smith workouts. I am glad I tried them. I think balance is important and I like the balance set. I like workouts that put in balance work. The thing is, getting up from the floor like that is hard for even young people. I think it is a natural instinct to catch yourself with your hands just to prevent losing balance.
Carolyn, I never thought that the premix to Cardio Slam with lower impact modifications seemed all that low impact. Nice work.
