Strength in Numbers

Pam Great job on your bike ride with DH and CTX 10x4! I hope you had a great time at the beach!

Cheryl Great job on XT CBS! Hopefully it didn't rain too bad during dragon boating. Great job on CCC and XT Legs! That is too cute that she was helping push you on the hamstring work. Great job on P30 yoga! That was so nice of you to help out since another volunteer cancelled.

Friday I did a heavy weight, core, and yoga workout and then did some cleaning. Saturday was a run in Romania and some yoga and then I stopped by my mom's and gave her some flowers. Then DH and I sat on the deck since it was super nice out. I can tell Spring has finally sprung as my allergies were in full swing. Sunday was my lazy day and this morning was more heavy weights, core, and yoga work.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great jo bon XTrain CBS and getting your housework done! I hope dragon boating wasn’t too wet!

Cheryl Great job on CCC!!! I just started Cathe’s May rotation so I guess I have that to look forward to . Great job on XTrain Legs with the extra weight. I’m sure Willow though that was a great place to hang out. Great jog on dragon boating and yoga also. That was nice of you to help out on mother;s day and also to take your mom to the casino and dinner!

Julie Great job on your heavy weight, core and yoga work, run, yoga, and more heavy weights, core, and yoga, It’s nice that you had some beautiful weather and got To sit and and enjoy it. How is your pack doing?

I got home from the beach on Saturday afternoon and stopped and picked up some new fosters for me and another foster at the shelter on my way back. I haven’t little tiny ones in so long, I had forgotten just how little they are! Now I have to come up with names which is always the hardest part for me. Yesterday was CTX Step and intervals and today was Intensity. My chest is really sore from the chest work yesterday. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Hope you come up with some names soon. With 3 of them if they were all male, you could go with the 3 Musketeers names. Great job on CTX S&I and Intensity!

This morning I did some mobility work and yoga! Last night Gunner and Cam really got into it. We had Schwann's stop by which they do every other Monday. Gunner really had a hold on Cam's ear so much that I was afraid I wouldn't be able to pry his mouth open. Immediately after that, they laid together on the couch. We are supposed to hit 90 today. That is a 35 degree jump in temps in 4 days as we were in the 50s on Friday.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on mobility work and yoga! That must’ve been scary when Gunner had such a hold on Cam’s ear. How weird that they were laying together right after that too. 35 degrees in 4 days is crazy! We pretty much went the other way over the weekend. It was 85 on Saturday and 48 on Sunday! It’s still cold in the mornings amd taking awhile to warm up, but I think tomorrow is the last day of cooler temps for us.

This morning was Xtrain Bi’s and Tri’s and today I have a shopping spree wish. I’ll spend some time with the kittens before I go, although about the only thing they do right now is scream at me to feed them :D. It’s amazing how loud those little things can be! Have a great day.

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your heavy weight core and yoga workouts and your run in Romania and yoga. That is nice that you could sit out on your deck but bummer that your allergies are acting up.

Pam The kittens are so tiny but so cute. Figuring out names is something I have a hard time with. Great work on CTX Step and Intervals and Intensity.

Julie That is scary about Gunner and Cam and it sounds like they have a bit of a complicated relationship. It is nice that they still lay with each other. Wow that is a big temperature jump. Great work on your mobility and yoga work.

Pam Good work on XTrain Bis and Tris. It is amazing how loud they are when they are so little.

So yesterday morning I did Tabatacise and I went dragon boating in the evening. It wasn't too bad out it did rain a bit but it didn't last long. We were out for over an hour so our practices are getting longer. This morning I did RWH Back, Shoulders and Biceps. Then I went and got groceries and then in the afternoon we did some errands.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on XT B&T! Oh my goodness, that sounds adorable that they are just wanting to be fed. I was really worried since Gunner had him so tight plus it was the same side that his eye is still healing. So glad they didn't hurt each other and seem to get along the majority of the time.

Cheryl Great job on Tabatacise! That is a toughie! Glad the rain didn't last long. Great job on RWH BSB! It is such a weird relationship with those two. Almost right after I pulled them apart Gunner licked Cam's chops. Like oops I forgot we are friends.

This morning I did a heavy weight and core workout and then did some yoga. We are in the 90s through Thursday. I wanted it to warm up but I wasn't wanting mid-Summer temps in early May. I am not sure we really had a Spring this year. Although looking ahead it is supposed to be in the 70s next week.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Good job on your heavy weight and core workout and yoga. I agree that the 90's is really hot for May. We are at the opposite end with it being in the 50s and lots and lots of rain.

This morning I did RWH Legs. Tonight I will be going dragon boating and I hope the rain will hold off.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on tabatacise and dragon boating! It’s nice that you are able to get some longer practices in. Great job on RWH BSB!

Julie Great job on your heavy weight and core workout and yoga. I wish we were in the 90’s! It has been so cold here for May. We were only in the 60s today. It’s supposed to be in the 70’s Friday and Saturday but is supposed to rain all day both days. Sunday is supposed to be in the 80’s and sunny so I am looking forward to that.

Cheryl Great job on RWH legs. I hope the rain held off for dragon boating.

This morning DH and I went for a bike ride. It was a bit chilly when we started but was nice by the time we finished. This afternoon we went to the immersive Van Gogh experience. It was pretty interesting, but I was expecting more because it has been really hyped. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Cheryl Great job on RWH Legs! Hopefully the rain held off so you could do dry dragon boating.

Pam Great job on your bike ride with DH! The weather sure has been weird all over this month.

This morning I did a bike ride in Montana and some flexibility and yoga! I am taking tomorrow off. I wish I could get excited about the weekend. We are supposed to get cooler temps but also rain all weekend so no sitting outside on the deck.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on your bike ride, flexibility, and yoga. I hope you get a break from the rain to sit on the deck this weekend. It’s supposed to rain all day Friday and Saturday here, but Sunday is supposed to be nice. I hope they are right!

This morning was XTrain Cardio Leg Blast and core 2. It seems like I have done that one a lot lately, but I like it so its ok. Then I spread some pine straw and now I need to get the grass cut before the rain starts. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Good work on your bike ride. They had the Van Gogh experience here in Vancouver last year. I didn't go to it though so I am not sure of what it was like.

Julie Good job on your bike ride in Montana and flexibility and yoga work. We are getting the same kind of weather here. It is getting a bit tiring.

Pam Great work on XTrain Cardio Leg Blast and core 2. I hope you got the grass cut before the rains came.

So last night the rain held off and it was really nice for dragon boating. This morning I did RWH Chest, Shoulders and Triceps and then I got the housework done. Now I am going to head off to the SPCA and then I am suppose to go dragon boating. It is pouring rain outside so I am hoping for some strong winds so it will be cancelled. Just having some rain doesn't do it we need wind too :p.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl That’s great that the rain held off for your dragon boating. I hope you didn’t end up having to go in the pouring rain, I don’t blame you for hoping for wind! Great job on RWH CST and your housework!

This morning was Xtrain Chest, Back, and shoulders. It looks like some of our rain came early. It rained all night but isn’t raining now and the forecast says we’re not going to get rain again until 4 pm, but then it’s supposed to rain until tomorrow night. I’m glad I got all of my planting done, it’s been doing great with all of the rain. Have a great day!

Pam
 
This morning was CCC. I still dread it, but not as much as I did before I stopped do the stop, drop, and roll! It’s still tough even with the modification for that one. Yesterday ended up being a beautiful day and we didn’t get any rain until about 8 pm. It was supposed to rain all day yesterday and today, and now they are saying just scattered thunderstorms today. I like it when they make a mistake in that direction! Brandy and Bubbles went to a different foster yesterday because they get jealous of other cats and she doesn’t have any others. Hopefully they will be happy, I felt so bad because they were so scared and I know they will be for awhile. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on CLB plus core 2! Great job on XT CBS! I am sure that is a relief that you got all your planting and yard work done before it rained. Great job on the dreaded CCC! Yes, I can't get mad when they call for rain and it doesn't happen. I hope Brandy and Bubbles does well in their new home.

Cheryl So glad you had a nice night for dragon boating. Great job on RWH CST! I hope your dragon boating either got cancelled due to wind or the rain let up so you didn't have to do it in the rain.

Friday I did a heavy weight and core workout and some yoga. Then I did some meal prepping and cleaning before taking Cam to the vet. He got the all clear on his eye and doesn't need drops or the cone of shame anymore! Saturday I did a run in Romania and some mobility work and then a little more cleaning. We actually had no rain over the weekend. It was nice in the mornings so I was able to get about an hour relaxing on the deck before it got too hot to stay out. Sunday was my lazy day and this morning I did a heavy weight and core workout with some yoga.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on your heavy weight, core, and yoga! That is great that Cam got the all clear on his eye. I’m sure he is happy to be out of the cone And you are happy not having to fight him to put in drops! Great job On your run, mobility work, and cleaning and also your heavy weight, core, and yoga! I’m glad that you were able to get a little bit of time out on the deck over the weekend.

Saturday I spent most of the day cleaning after doing some running around in the morning. The kittens room was a mess so I got it all cleaned up, but of course you would never know it already! I also did some clean up outside and some window washing to get things ready for the warm weather. There is more to be done, but it’s getting there. Yesterday was my rest day and I didn’t do a whole lot other than hang by the pool. This morning was Tabatacise. It was feeling really good through the first 3 rounds, but then I hit a wall and just wanted to get through it. I can’t believe Cathe put Intensity, CCC, and Tabatacise in the first 8 days of this rotation! Whew. Have a great day.

Pam
 
Pam Great job on XTrain Chest, Back and Shoulders and CCC. That one has a dread factor for me and I do need to modify on some of the moves. That is great that you got all of your planting done before it rains. It is nice when they make a mistake forecasting rain and then it doesn't come. I hope Brandy and Bubbles are enjoying their new foster home with no other cats.

Julie Good work on your heavy weight and core workouts and yoga and your run in Romania and your mobility work. That is great that Cam's eye is better and he doesn't need to wear the cone of shame anymore. That is nice that you didn't get any rain this weekend and could enjoy your deck.

Pam Haha yep kittens are pretty messy aren't they. I know they get litter and food scattered all over the place in the shelter in no time. Nice to be able to get some outside cleaning done. Good job on Tabatacise. This is a challenging rotation that is for sure.

So dragon boating got cancelled on Thursday night because it was so miserable out. Friday morning I did Cardio Supersets and then got the laundry done. Friday night I went dragon boating to help out with a learn to dragon boat program that our coaches are teaching. It was a really nice night. Saturday morning I did P30 Lower Body, it was a nice short workout. Then I had a pretty lazy day since it was raining out. Sunday I took as a day off and went to the farmers market. It was pouring rain but I wanted to get out for some fresh air. This morning I did To The Max and it was really hard for me this morning. After that I did a bit of cleaning and then we went out for a short walk since it wasn't raining out. Tonight I am going dragon boating unless the winds get too strong. We will see how it is.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam That's how I feel after cleaning something like it was never clean. I swear I turn around and what was a clean surface now has slobber and dog hair all over it somehow in less than 2 seconds! Great job on Tabatacise! Oh wow that is quite the combo she threw in there.

Cheryl That was good they cancelled dragon boating so you didn't have to be miserable. Great job on CSS and P30 LB and TTM! I hope you get a break from this rain and wind soon.

This morning I did some mobility work and yoga! It's only Tuesday and I am already ready for the weekend!

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl I’m sure you were happy when dragon boating was cancelled on Thursday. It didn’t sound like the kind of conditions that would be any fun to be outside in, let alone on the water! Great job on CSS, P30 LB, and TTM. I keep getting a glimpse of what is coming for my workouts since you are a week ahead of me in the rotation!

Julie Great job on your mobility work and yoga. Hopefully the work week will feel like it goes by quickly.

This morning was RWH LIHI Chest, Shouders, and Triceps. These RWH weight workouts are so hard for me. My arms are sill singing and it’s been over an hour since I finished. I go lighter than Cathe on almost everything too! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on RWH LIHI CST! She is really mean with all those burnout sets of pushups. To me, that is what makes that one so hard.

This morning I did a heavy weight and core workout and some yoga! On my drive into work, things looked great until I got a few miles from the office and it got really dark and started lightning and thundering. I luckily made it into the office before any rain came.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great jo bon your heavy weight, core, and yoga workout! I’m glad you got to the office before the rain hit, it’s not fun driving in that.

This morning was LIHI Legs. I repeated some of the last rounds to make it an hour long since it’s pretty short. Those snow angel jacks are killers! It looks like our summer has arrived at last. We are getting 80s and sunny most of the week and up to 95 on Friday! I’m glad I got all of the yard work finished before it got too hot. Have a great day!
