Today I did Raw Heavy Bag and Arms, 64 minutes, heart rate 124/158, 275 calories, 2,740 steps. I have done this one before. It alternates heavy bag or shadow boxing with biceps done 12 reps 5 sets and lower body breaks then the same sequences for triceps overhead extensions. In the middle she did clean and press for 5 sets, but I did clean and curl. Next time I think that I will do kickbacks instead of overhead extensions. I tried to keep keep the biceps curls like she did in the shoulder neck issues workout. This really isolates more. I started with 15's and dropped to 10's because I could hardly lift the last few reps. Weird how that is.
That is all I had time for. School took awhile. My grandson and I walked up the street to our playground. It is really nice and it was just him and I. We had to come back when I saw Whole Foods had us on the next stop. I probably could have just looked up the street and seen them when they did the drop off. It was nice to get outside and the weather was beautiful. Yesterday was a family belated Easter and birthday get together at my son's house. Then we went to see my granddaughter's first home they bought. She graduates law school next month.
Valerie, I hate traffic and avoid it as much as possible. The tulip fields are so beautiful and I can see why people would want to see them. I have not seen much of anything worth watching as far as movies. We have rented some that were supposed to be still in theaters that we thought would be good and they were awful. We never watch those awards shows. I guess you can tell, I don't watch much tv. My husband has it on all of the time when he is up and home, but it is news or old reruns, and movies we have purchased digitally. I can't stand to watch shows over and over. I need some clean humor which is not likely to happen.
I am not sure I am real happy with the washer and dryer here. Particularly the washer. I cannot get it to wash in cold water. I use delicate which is supposed to be cold and when I take the clothes out they are warm. It worries me that I am going to ruin some clothing. I wondered if the cold was not on all of the way, but the pipes the water comes through have a lever that pulls forward and backward. Not the usual faucet handles. Both have an arrow in the same place and seem set identically and it says off on it.
Carolyn, happy anniversary. We had ours last month, but we were busy unpacking and I think we ordered pizza. I am sure that you will enjoy the new grill. I have only went out and looked over the grill we have. I would imagine it cost a lot as it fits into the built in granite and rock wall around the patio and has a burner for something else. I had to order a grill brush. I threw the one we were using away.
Judy, nice work getting in Peleton rides. I guess I missed that you were doing something with your closet. Did you add more storage spaces? I am trying to figure out what to do with mine that are in the two workout rooms. One houses my art table along with the spin bike and tread climber, also a new heavybag that has sand in the base since we got rid of the 100# heavy bag and stand. I have the plastic totes full of scrapbooking, painting supplies, craft stuff, etc in the closet in that room. It all needs organized. I stuffed my least worn out of season shoes in that closet.
Cathy, I used to try to do cardio and weight intervals with my tread climber and dreaded taking my dumbbells downstairs and to the other end of the house to do it. I saw the pictures of new workouts someone had posted. I have not had time to look at the latest newsletters. I have one of those big loop bands I had purchased when doing Tracey Staehle's Bootcamp workouts. I did have 3 of them, but I gave the really heavy ones to my grandson to use and he never bought them back.
