Today I did CDorner Step and Strength cardio and arms (interval workout from 1 day ago) 49 minutes(47 actual), I wore my Fitbit Blaze and what a difference. I felt rewarded for all of the sweating and work this time. Wonder if it will stay that way. These things seem to work at the onset then drop off. 247 calories, heart rate 128/171, 3,021 steps. The music was fun again today, some Eurythmics in this one, some semi familiar tunes. Not much time again this morning. My grandson had some more testing for reading and they are moving him up into a higher level reading class. I am moving the first week it all starts and the first zoom days. Not sure how this will work out. I would like to be here to help him get settled in to a whole new routine and level. I had an electrician out today also and he will be back next week as he had to order a couple of breakers for our switch box in the garage. Not much packing got done today. The whole day has been kind of off. But, I did get started with a workout this time

Carolyn, I have talked to them at Fitbit several times and they have sent me suggestions. There is a whole group there with the same complaints. I was amazed at how quickly the Blaze picked up on the heart rate today. I usually waste so much time trying to adjust my Versa to get it to pick up at all from resting heart rate. I think I am going to ignore the Versa till I am done and then happen to see my heart rate is in the 80's while I am sweating and breathing hard and it really irritates me. It seems every time I do Supercuts I do not go back to it for a long time. I kind of forget what it is like I guess.
Valerie, nice that you had sunshine to be out in today. It has been raining a bit here today and I gather through the weekend. That terrible hard freeze sure did a lot to plants around here. Even our evergreen shrubs are brown and wondering if they will come back. I am betting my endless summer hydrangea does not come back. I saw a few geese wandering around the other day.
Cathy, I remember an area in Nebraska where the cranes would come and a lot of people just took drives out there to see them. We went to visit my Dad and he took us for the drive. I think my husband thought it was kind of funny to go out to look at birds. I don't get the music thing because some streaming people and you tubes use real music. Not the stuff that is played on a lot of the dvds. So, sometimes I wonder. I could see maybe for dvd production, but then again, will they start blocking or making instructors pay to use the music for all streaming and online workouts? CDorner (Chris) workouts are free. She has a lot. My Blaze made me feel so much better about working out.
