Strength in Numbers

Julie Good job on your heavy weight, mobility and yoga work.

Pam Great work on Circuit Max, That is too cute about the little boy who thought you were going to take him to Disney. Great work on Supersets and Lower Body Blast too. Oh no you have a lot going on with repairs. I hope you get everything fixed soon.

Julie Great job on your heavy weight and core workouts and yoga workouts, your run in Romania and mobility work. I am glad that Cam is doing well after his surgery but I bet he will be happy to get the cone of shame off. It must be hard to try to keep him from running with the neighbor dog.

Pam Good work on Tabatacise. Giving eye drops to cats can be a bit of a challenge.

Julie Good job on your heavy weight workout and mobility and yoga work. We are having crazy weather here too.

Pam Great work on XTrain Chest, Back and Shoulders. That is great that the stores went out of their way to make the shopping spree wish special for her. That is great that Finnegan's eyes are doing better.

Sorry I have been MIA for a while. Thursday I had a hair appointment in the morning so I didn't get a chance to workout. Then we went and got DH's hair cut and some new shoes. After that I went to the SPCA to do my shift. Friday morning we just got the rest of the packing done and then went to pick up my mom. The hotel was nice and we had a nice ocean view from our room. We could watch the cruise ships leave for Alaska. Friday night was a meet and greet in my brother's suite. It was fun but I didn't stay long since I had a 6am wake up to get my hair and makeup done. Once that was done and my mom's too we went for a brunch in the hotel. In the afternoon we had pictures taken and then we left for the boat for the wedding and cruise. The weather was really nice and there was no rain at all. The wedding was done outside on the top level of the boat. Then dinner was served while we cruised around Stanley Park and Vancouver. It was a 4 hour cruise so there was lots of time to visit with relatives we hadn't seen in a while. There was more partying when we got back to the hotel but we were tired so we just went back to our room. Sunday we left to come back home and I was so tired. We went out for dinner Sunday night with our friend because I was too tired to cook. Monday I did LITE Metabolic Blast and then I went dragon boating in the evening. This morning I did Slide and Glide and then I went and got groceries.

Have a great day.

Pam Great job on XT CSB! That is so nice of the stores to do extra special things for her on her shopping spree. Glad to hear Finnegan's eyes are doing better. We laugh about it too. Cam is not only running into walls and furniture but he also keeps whacking Ruby in the face with it. :p

I did a bike ride in Montana and some core work this morning. I think my psoas is acting up on my left side. I have been having troubles with my squats and lunges. Ugh!

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on your bike ride in Montana and your core work. Oh no I hope your psoas calms down for you.

This morning I did ICE Metabolic Total Body. Now I need to go out to my mom's and file her taxes for her.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on ICE MTB! Ugh taxes are no fun. I hope you got it done.

This morning I did a heavy weight workout and some mobility and yoga! I am taking tomorrow off and have a big to do list since I have a get together this Saturday and won't be able to use that day to do much.

Have a great weekend!
 
Cheryl It Sounds like the wedding was really beautiful. I’m glad that they got nice weather for the cruise and were able to have the wedding outside. It sounds like a really nice time but I’m not surprised you were exhausted! Great job on MB, dragon boating, and slide and glide!

Julie Great job on your bioke ride in Montana and core work. I hope that your psoas calms down quickly!

Cheryl Great job on MTB. I hope you were able to get your mom’s taxes filed. The accountant filed and extention for my mom’s taxes so I’m not sure when they are going to be done.

Julie Great job on your heavy weight, mobility and core work. I hope you are able to get through everything on your to-do list!

Yesterday DH and I went for a bike ride. It was a bit chilly when we started but it warmed up quickly. This morning was XTrain Bis and Tris and now I’m going to the garden center to get some plants. I got some hanging baskets the other day but I need to get some things for my pots. I’m ready for some color again! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your heavy weight workout and your mobility and yoga. I hope you get everything done Friday and that you enjoy your get together.

Pam Great work on your bike ride and XTrain Bis and Tris. I need to get things for our garden too but it has still been cold.

This morning I did the cardio only timesaver premix for Hard Strikes. Then I got all of the housework done. In the afternoon I went to the SPCA for my shift and then after that I went to go dragon boating. Unfortunately it was cancelled because it was too windy. It has been a very weird April here.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on HS and your housework. That is too bad about dragon boating, it has been a very weird April here too. I’m ready for summer weather to stay!

This morning was the step and power circuits from Body Max. Now I have to get busy planting everything that I bought yesterday. Have a great day!

Hi ladies, I hope you are both having a great weekend. Yesterday was my rest day so no workout. I spent most of the day getting dinner ready because we had some friends over. This morning was Cardio leg blast and core 2. Now it’s laundry and cutting the grass and hopefully getting some pool time. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on Step and Power Circuits from BM and Cardio Leg Blast and Core 2. I hope you got some pool time after you got everything done.

So I didn't workout all weekend :eek:. I think I just needed a bit of a break. We did get our patio furniture put together though the weather still is cold here. We did buy some covers for the furniture because it is suppose to rain tonight and we really don't have any overhead cover for it.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Sometimes we all need those breaks. It’s great that you got your patio furniture put together and hopefully you will get some nice weather to enjoy it soon!

This morning was Crossfire and the bonus low impact tabata. I had been thinking I would start the May rotation, but it isn’t posted yet. I did get the lawn cut and the laundry done yesterday and had about an hour and a half of reading by the pool which was wonderful. I didn’t go in the water as there was enough of a breeze to keep me cool. Now I’m definitely ready for summer to stay! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Cheryl I somehow missed your post about the wedding. Sounds like it was a lovely time and with great weather. Great job on LITE MB, dragon boating and S&G and the cardio only from HS! Oh no that is a bummer dragon boating was cancelled because of the wind. I am so ready for better weather. We are still cold for this time of year in the 50s with rain and wind. Sounds like you needed to take the break and it worked out with getting your patio furniture in and put together.

Pam Great job on your bike ride and glad it warmed up after a bit. Great job on XT B&T and the step and PC from BM! Hope you got everything planted. Great job on CLB plus core 2! Glad you got some good pool time. Great job on CF plus the LIT bonus!

Friday I did a heavy weight, core, and yoga workout then did some cleaning before taking Cam back to the vet. His eye is healing just slowly so he is still on drops and in the cone for 2 more weeks. Saturday I did a run in Romania and some mobility work. After that I visited with my family for the first time since Christmas. Sunday was my lazy day and this morning I did a heavy weight, core, and yoga workout!

Have a great day!
 
This morning I did some mobility work and yoga! I have to take both Ruby and Cam to the vet this afternoon. Cam gets his stitches removed, YEA! He will be able to run and play a little more. He still has to be careful with his eye though. Ruby gets her liver levels rechecked. Fingers crossed her levels are normal.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great jo bon your heavy weight, core, and yoga workout. Poor Cam having to wear that cone for 2 more weeks! I’m glad to hear that his eye is healing thouhg. Great job on your run a and mobility work and your heavy weight, core and yoga. Wow, that’s a long time since you had visited with your family! I hope you had a nice visit. Great job on your mobility work and yoga. That’s great that Cam is getting his stitches out. I hope Ruby’s liver levels are good!

This morning I did All Step from CTX. I was thinking that Cathe never includes any of the CTX workouts in her rotations, so I decided to do a Mini CTX rotation this week. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Good job on Crossfire and the bonus low impact tabata. The May rotation is posted on the site and I started it on Monday. Maybe you missed it? Nice that you could spend time by the pool, it is still too cool here for that.

Julie Great work on your heavy weight, core and yoga workouts and your mobility and yoga work. That is great that Cam's eye is healing though slowly but I am sure he isn't thrilled with needing to wear the cone for 2 more weeks. That must have been nice being able to see your family again. I bet Cam is happy to finally get the stitches removed and I hope that Ruby's liver levels are normal.

Pam Good work on CTX All Step. That is a good idea to do a mini CTX rotation.

So Monday I did Intensity to premix that omits the High Impact Hiit. Then I took Zoey out for a walk because she was being lazy for our friend. In the afternoon we went out to my mom's because she gifted us her car since she is no longer able to drive. So we now have a 2018 Toyota Rav 4. It has a lot of bells and whistles on it so it will take a while to learn what all the buttons do. Then I went dragon boating. This morning I did XTrain Bis and Tris and then I went grocery shopping. It is another cold and rainy day here, it does not feel like May at all.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on CTX AS! Oh that is a good catch. I check out her rotations and can't remember the last time she included CTX.

Cheryl Great job on Intensity premix! that High Hiit is tough especially right after a tough step segment. How exciting to have a new car. I just upgraded from a 2005 to a 2018 and was amazed at the newer tech in it. Great job on XT Bis & Tris!

Last night we took Cam and Ruby to the vet and it went well but we won't get Ruby's results until today. When Cam got home he decided to get into it with Gunner over a bag of food we brought up and apparently he smelled the food through the bag. It had been a few weeks since they got into it and luckily no one was hurt. This morning I did a heavy weight and core workout with some yoga!

Have a great day!
 
Julie There are a lot of safety features in the cars now. It is nice but takes a while to get used to all of it. It is amazing how well their sense of smell is. Good thing that no one got hurt. Good job on your heavy weight and core workout and yoga.

This morning I did XTrain Cardio Leg Blast. Tonight I went dragon boating with another team. My coach emailed me this morning asking if I could help out. It was nice on the water and it was a bit busy since they were also filming Shogun and the set is right beside where we meet for dragon boating.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on XT CLB and dragon boating!

Ruby's liver values were much better but she still has higher than normal so they are doing another round of meds for a month before rechecking. Benny had a bladder infection we thought was cleared up but it came back so he is on antibiotics again. 3 out of 4 dogs are having issues right now and I keep telling Gunner to stay healthy. This morning I did a bike ride in Montana and some mobility and yoga! Taking tomorrow off work. It is supposed to rain the next two days but we might get some higher temps in the 60s and maybe even 70!

Have a great weekend
 
Cheryl I either missed the May rotation or looked before it was posted. Maybe I’ll start it next week. Great job on Intensity and your walk with Zoey. That is nice that your mom gifted you her car. It is nice to have the new features, I know I miss them now when I drive my older car that doesn’t have them. Great job on dragon boating and Xtrain Bis and Tris. I hope you get better weather soon!

Julie I’m glad that no one got hurt in Cam nad Gunner‘s scuffle and that the vet visit went well. Great job on your heavy weight, core, and yoga workout!

Cheryl Great job on CLB and your dragon boating!

Julie I’m glad that Ruby’s liver values are getting better. That is no fun having 3 dogs with health issues. Hopefully Gunner will listen and stay well! Great ob on your bike ride, mobility, and yoga, I hope you get some of that nice weather!

Yesterday was a beautiful day so DH and I went for a bike ride, When we got home I spread some pine straw that I had picked up the day before. It was really hot and I was completely wiped out afterwards. This morning I did CTX 10-10-10. I actually did 10-10-10-10 because I did the step part twice to make it closer to an hour. Now I’m getting packed to go to the beach for a couple of days with some girlfriends. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie That is great that Ruby's liver values are better. Having animals with issues isn't any fun, I hope Gunner listens to you and stays healthy. Great work on your bike ride in Montana and your mobility and yoga work. I hope you get the higher temperatures this weekend.

Pam Good job on your bike ride and CTX 10-10-10-10. Enjoy your time at the beach house with your friends.

This morning I did XTrain Chest, Back and Shoulders. Then I got all the housework done. Now I am getting ready to go to the SPCA to help out and then tonight I am going dragon boating again. It is pouring rain out so it is going to be a wet one.

Cheryl
 
Friday I did CCC it was tough but I made it through. Saturday morning I did XTrain Legs and Willow decided to help me out with the hamstring work by climbing on top of me while I was doing it. She added an extra 10 pounds onto it, I guess she figured I needed the extra weight :p and then I went dragon boating. This morning I did P30 Yoga and it felt really good. Then I went to the SPCA to help out since all of todays volunteers cancelled since I guess they had some mothers day things happening. After that we went to my mom's and took her to the casino and then out for dinner.

I hope you had a great weekend.
