Strength in Numbers

Julie Great job on your run on Easter Island and hike in Peru. Oh wow there is a National Jelly Bean Day? And it is getting up to 70 for you too that is a great day.

Pam I am doing Cathe's April rotation and CCC was Monday's workout :p. It did feel like torture though. Good work on Imax 4 and doing rounds 8 - 10 a second time through. and S&S PHA and the bonus abs. Ugh ringworm not fun. Why did you have to give the kittens baths. Was it because of ringworm or..... I can imagine that they did not like it at all.

This morning was AOLIH. It was a much easier workout the the last two I did. Then I got groceries. It was really quiet and there were no line ups at all. I got through my shopping really fast this morning. I got a call from my manager asking if I would be interested in working at our Provincial office on Fridays starting this week. I told her that I would since we don't have a lot to do at our shelter right at the moment. I will find out more tomorrow on what I will be doing which will be mainly office work. It will be about a 30 minute commute instead of 2 minutes but it shouldn't be too bad since there aren't a lot of cars on the road right now.

Have a great day.

Pam Great job on Imax 4 with added rounds and S&S PHA plus bonus abs! I love the PHA workouts. Oh poor Mori; that sounds awful. Well bright side is you got a lot of cleaning in that room done.

Cheryl Great job on AOLIH! Oh that will be an interesting change of pace to work in the Provincial office. That is the bright side that grocery shopping seems to be more efficient with less people and less cars on the road makes driving less stressful.

This morning I did a Get Lean workout and a hike in South Africa. The trainer was a very nice looking shirtless guy. I am not even sure what the scenery looked like. Could have been a mountain, could have been the beach. Who knows! Any hoo … I am taking tomorrow off work. I was hoping it would be nice this weekend but looks like we are getting rain. Maybe I can get motivated and make it a productive weekend.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl The vet gave me a shampoo to use for the ringworm. I gave all of the kittens a bath even the ones who have no spots just in case. I'm hoping the other 3 don't get any spots and I will only have to give 3 baths next time. Great job on AOLIOH. I always feel like that one sneaks up on me. It seems really easy at first but by the end I'm feeling it. It had to have felt better than your last couple of workouts though for sure. That's nice that you were able to get your shopping done so quickly. I have done the curbside pickup the last two times but it takes me a long time to do my order even though it is quick to pickup. Its also a learning experience. I ordered fresh ginger this week and I got a HUGE amount of ginger. I think it's more than we use in a year :D. That's nice that you will be helping out at your provincial office for awhile. Driving is a lot less stressful right now with so few cars on the road for sure!

Julie Great job on your GL workout out bike in South Africa. I was laughing reading about having no idea what the scenery looked like. IT sounds like one you will have to do many more times! :p Too bad you aren't going to have nice weather for your long weekend, but maybe the weather man will be wrong!

This morning was Cardio Kicks and of course I always think about Julie when Cathe brings the guys up front. That one always goes by fast. We took two more kittens in today. It was supposed to be 4 but the woman gave one away and kept one. They were the cutest little fur balls. I was strong though. I gave then a vaccine ad dewormer and sent them to their foster. It was easier to do after going through the 6 baths yesterday. ;) Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great job on your Get Lean workout and hike in South Africa. Sounds like you had some really nice scenery ;). I am sure you will do that one again in the not too distant future. Enjoy your day off even if the weather won't be that nice, just think about the nice scenery you saw today.

Pam I figured the shampoo was for the ringworm. I guess it is hard to determine how much is too much ginger. At least you can grate it up and freeze it so it won't go bad. Good work on Cardio Kicks. I bet the vaccines and dewormer was a lot easier to do than the baths yesterday.

This morning was Total Body Giant Sets. I really didn't want to do it since I was super tired this morning. I dont know why I did sleep pretty good last night. But I made it through. Then I got the housework done. It was a really rainy day here so it was a bit gloomy.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on Cardio Kicks! HaHa! I do love when she brings them up to the front. You are very strong to not keep your fosters. We ended up having rain all day Saturday but Sunday was partially sunny and in the 60s so that was nice.

Cheryl Great job on TBGS especially with not being motivated and feeling tired! We had a rainy gloomy day on Saturday too! Ha! Yes I was actually thinking of looking for more workouts from that trainer to do today!

Friday I did a run in Easter Island and a hike in the French Alps! After that I did my regular cleaning and then took the car in for some work on the A/C. Saturday I did a Get Lean workout and another hike in the French Alps. Then DH and I groomed the dogs nails and gave them baths and then vacuumed and shampooed the carpet and washed the couch covers. That is a lot of work but it makes the house smell so much better at least for a while. Sunday was my lazy day and this morning I did a Get Lean workout and then a hike in Zion National Park.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Good job on your run on Easter Island and hike in the French Alps, your Get Lean workouts and your hike in Zion National Park. Wow you sure got a lot done on Saturday. It is a lot of work but it is so nice to have a nice smelling house.

Friday I didn't have time to do a workout. I had to leave early so I could get to the Provincial Office. The team I was helping out just moved to a new area right before COVID so they needed help going through the boxes and filing things. I will be going there again this Friday. Saturday I did High Reps one I haven't done in years. Then I went to work. Sunday I did some stretching and used my foam roller. We had our weekly video chat with my mom and brother then our friend changed our winter tires for us. Today I was sooo tired. I struggled through RWH Plyo Hiit 2 and then when I was doing the bonus abs Willow came and laid down on top of me. So needless to say my workout stopped there. It was nice to have her laying on top of me purring. In the afternoon I went out to where my mom lives to drop off a few things for her and to pick up her tax documents. I am going to start on her taxes and get them done for her.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on High Reps and your stretching and foam rolling! Yea, no more winter tires. Great job on RWH Plyo HiiT 2, that one is tough even when you are not tired. So cute that Willow came in during the abs section. I bet that was nice and relaxing for you. I love the way cats purr.

This morning I did a Get Lean workout and then another hike in Zion National Park. Sheba goes to the vet today for testing to see what is up with her high liver enzymes. I hope we get answers today and don't have to wait but they said it will be an all day appointment.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Yes, the vaccines and dewormer were much easier than the baths. I'm supposed to do the baths at least 2 more times but I think I will try to just do the areas that are affected the next time. Great job on TBGS, especially when you didn't feel like doing it and getting the housework done. I have been so unmotivated to do housework but have been trying to do one room at a time.

Julie I'm glad you got some nice weather on Saturday at least. Great job on your run on Easter Island and your hike in the Alps. Great job on your GL workout and hike in the Alps. you really got a lot done With the dogs and cleaning! Great job on your GL workout and hike in Zion. My all time favorite hike was in the Narrows at Zion.

Cheryl Great job on HR, stretching, and foam rolling. You are so good to do that. Hooray for no more winter tires! Our spring hasn't seemed like it really wants to come this year, we have had a really cool April. Great job getting through plyo hiit 2, that is a tough one when you AREN'T feeling tired. That's funny that Willow decided that your workout was over. I need to get busy on my moms taxes too.

Julie Great job on your GL workout and hike in Zion. Wow, an all day vet appointment doesn't sound like any fun at all! I hope that they figure out what is going on with her!

I didn't realize that I had been MIA for so long. Friday I finished my PHA week with PHA 2 + 6 pack abs 1 + extended stretch. It was still under an hour. Saturday I went for a bike ride and about 6 miles in my tire got stuck in a groove on a railroad track and I crashed. I got some cuts and bruises but nothing bad and my bike was fine. Unfortunately my friend who was behind me didn't have time to react and go around so she hit me and went down and broke her elbow. :( I think that is the first time I have ever called 911. She ended up having to have surgery today and I just got the report that the surgery is complete and she is in recovery. I decided not to workout on Sunday and let my wounds heal a little. Monday I went for a 20 mile bike ride and it felt good. This morning I did To the Max. It felt great and I can tell I'm stronger after doing STS. I'm considering repeating Meso 3, but haven't decided yet. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great work on your Get Lean workout and hike in Zion National Park. Wow that is a long appointment. I hope they can find out what is going on with Sheba.

Pam Good job on PHA 2 + 6 pack abs 1 and extended stretch. Oh no I am glad that you are OK after your bike crash but your poor friend who broke her elbow wasn't so lucky. I hope it doesn't take long for her to heal from it. Great job on your 20 mile bike ride and TTM.

So today was BM2. Wow that is a long workout and I haven't done it in years because of that. I did enjoy it though. Then I got some housework done and then I went for a 10 km walk. I slept really well last night so I had a lot of energy today.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam No worries on being MIA! It happens. I'll have to see if the Narrows is available in the database. So far I hiked Overlook Canyon and Emerald Pools (at least that is what IFit called them). Great job on PHA 2 plus abs and extended stretch! Oh my, breaking an elbow sounds awful. I am glad she is doing well after surgery and that you let yourself have a day to heal up. Great job on your 20 mile bike ride and TTM!

Cheryl Great job on BM2! Those BM are really long workouts. Great job on your long walk. I bet you did sleep well after that day.

This morning I did a run on Easter Island a hike in the French Alps! We don't have the results of Sheba's tests yet. Hopefully today but it could be tomorrow before we get it back. She does have a pretty big owie on her belly and they sent her home in a onesie so she wouldn't lick it! So cute!

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on on BM2. I rarely do that whole workout because it's so long. Wow, housework and a 10 k walk too! I guess you did have a lot of energy.

Julie I think we did the Emerald pools hike in Zion but I don't remember overlook Canyon. Gret job on your run on Easter Island and hike in the Alps. Were you at the vet all day? Poor girl with her belly, I hope she doesn't have to wear the onside too long. Did you get a picture of her in it?

This morning I did the Viper which has a cardio + weights cardio, then an Imax 2 interval, and then 2-3 ME upper body weight segments repeated 4 times. It was long but went by fast. No Jeannie hops so I was happy about that. It was a beautiful day today so I spent some time outside after doing Meow House stuff. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great work on your run on Easter Island and hike in the French Alps. I hope you don't need to wait too long for Sheba's test results. Well I guess a onesie is better than the cone of shame and cuter too.

Pam Good job on the Viper. What you didn't miss your favorite Jeannie Hops :p. Nice that you could get outside and enjoy your nice day.

This morning was Cardio Slam. It was hard since my legs were feeling it from everything I did yesterday but I got through it. Then it was grocery shopping and it was pretty quiet and I got through it really fast. Then all I did was make some granola and then had a lazy afternoon. It was raining pretty hard here so it was a day to stay inside.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on The Viper workout! So you didn't add on some Jeannie hops just for fun! Luckily for me I didn't have to stay at the vet all day but poor Sheba did. I will try to get a picture and post it. She has to wear it until the spot clears up which will probably be a couple of days to week.

Cheryl Great job on Cardio Slam! I can imagine your legs were sore from all the work you did the day before. I'm going grocery shopping today for myself and my parents. Hoping it is pretty quiet and I can get through quickly. We had a rainy day all day yesterday too. Luckily it looks pretty rain free for the next couple of days.

The vet called us yesterday and told us Sheba has Cushing's disease. Given the only symptoms are her elevated liver enzymes and slightly increased thirst he is suggesting no treatment at this time. If she begins to develop additional symptoms that may change. She is still the same Sheba so it doesn't seem to be affecting her. This morning I did a Get Lean workout and then a fast walk in South Africa were there were lots of animals. The guide was South African and I love how he pronounced zebra as zedbra!

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on Cardio Slam. I'm not surprised that your legs were talking to you. I need to grocery shop today too. The last time I went it was really quiet so hopefully it will be today too. Yummmm, homemade granola!

Julie That is nice that you don't have to do any treatment for Sheba. One of my friends dogs has Cushings too, but I think they have to give her medication. Great job on your GL workout and your walk in S Africa. That is too funny, a zedbra! I've never heard that before.

This morning I did Rock Em Sock Em kickbox and icy core 1. Before my workout though I gave the kittens their ringworm bath. They were not happy about it at all. The last 2 time Mori threw up afterwards because he was so upset, so I did the baths before feeding them this morning. I was upset yesterday because I thought the 3 tabbies didn't have it and have been keeping them separated, but I found patches on 2 of the tabbies yesterday. :( So it was 6 baths again. My DH just finished painting and putting new flooring in our bonus room, so they are happy running around in there now. I'm so happy to have the carpet gone! Have a great day.

Pam
 
Julie At least the Cushing's disease isn't too bad and Sheba doesn't need any medications. I hope it stays like that for a long time. Good job on your Get Lean workout and walk in South Africa. Saying zedbra is the British way of saying it, in Canada too since we are part of the British Commonwealth. Though most of the time we say zeebra too.

Pam Great job on Rock'em Sock'em Kickbox and icy core 1. Not fun having to give 6 kittens a bath. Hopefully you can get rid of the ringworm soon so you won't have to give them baths. I would love to get rid of our carpets too one day.

This morning was PHA and then I did the vacuuming. I didn't do much today though I should have. I was just having a lazy day.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on RKS plus Icy Core! Oh poor kitties! We are looking into replacing our carpet in our living room so I understand being excited about getting rid of it.

Cheryl Great job on PHA! You deserve a lazy day! I am so thankful we don't have to treat Sheba right now and it doesn't seem to be affecting her.

This morning I did a run in Easter Island and a hike in the French Alps. I got a picture of Sheba in her onesie! She actually doesn't mind it. We just have to remember to unbutton it when she goes outside or she gets it wet.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Julie Great work on your run in Easter Island and hike in the French Alps. Awww that is a cute picture of Sheba in her onesie.

Well I didn't get up in time to get a workout in before I had to head off to work. I am going to have to try to get up an hour earlier so I can get one in but it is hard to get up at 5am.

Have a great weekend.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on PHA. Sometimes it's ok to just have a lazy day!

Julie Great job on you Easter Island run and hike in the Alps. Sheba is so cute in her onesie! That is a nice alternative to the cone of shame!

Cheryl I don't blame you for not getting up at 5 am to workout. My days of doing that are over!

Saturday I got up and got dressed to workout, but my foot was bothering me so I decided to take the day off. I had a mountain of laundry to do and got it all done, had to run to the store, and got some yard work done. This morning was Hiit Circuit upper body with abs mixed in. I like that premix a lot! Now I'm hoping to get in some pool time. This afternoon we are going for a socially distanced visit with my friend who broke her elbow. Some of our restrictions are lifting so my cleaners are starting back to work this week! I hope that they aren't too afraid of the condition of the house since they were last here :p. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Cheryl That is really early especially when you are not used to it.

Pam Good for you for not working out to give your foot a day of rest. Great job on HiiT CUB w/abs! Hope you got some good pool time in.

We had gorgeous weather over the weekend. Actually made it to 80 on Saturday. I ended up spending most of the weekend outside. DH and I spent some time Friday enjoying the weather with a few drinks and I ended up having a few too many and was not really in a good place Saturday morning to workout so I decided to take a rest over the weekend and just enjoy the weather. We did some things outside including grilling! This morning I started my recovery week between my last phase of Get Lean. I did Pedal Power Extreme. Now I have to decide what to do the rest of the week.

Have a great day!
 
Pam Good idea to take the day off if your foot was bothering you, but you got your exercise in with everything else that you did. Great work on Hiit Circuit Upper body and abs. I hope you could enjoy your pool time. I hope your friend is well after her surgery. That would be so nice to have cleaners come into your home.

Julie Nice that you could enjoy the nice weather. Oops it is easy to drink a little too much and not realize it until it is too late. Smart idea to take the Saturday off. Good job on Pedal Power Extreme.

Saturday was Maximum Intensity Strength. That was one of my very first Cathe workouts. Then I went to work. Sunday I took as a day off and I went to the Farmers Market in the morning. In the afternoon we had our weekly video chat with my brother and mom and then after dinner I talked with a friend of mine who I haven't seen in a year. This morning was AOLIH but I could only to the step and disc premix. I needed to get Willow to the vet for a checkup and I didn't get started on the workout in time to do all of it so I just did a timesaver premix. Then DH had to go for blood work in the afternoon and then I did a bit of work outside and got the cats out too.

Have a great day.
