Strength in Numbers

Pam Great job on XT CLB! I can't believe it is Christmas pretty much already. Wasn't it just Thanksgiving like last week? Stay warm and don't blow away in the wind.

Cheryl Great job on legs and core! Oh yes it is getting down to the wire on getting the Christmas shopping done so I am sure it is just going to get busier and busier.

This morning I did a heavy upper body workout! I was super tired when I woke up but I pushed through. I woke up in the middle of the night and my first thought was "what day is it? Is it Friday?" and so then I stayed awake and had to be sad when I realized it was only Wednesday.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Good job on your heavy upper body workout when you were so tired. Sorry that it isn't Friday yet but you only have one more day of work after today :D.

This morning I had physio so I didn't get a workout in. Now I am getting some cleaning done before I need to get out to my mom's to take her to another doctors appointment. She also wants to go to the casino too as it has been a few weeks since we have been there.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl I hope the physio is helping. Hope you had a great time at the casino with your mom.

This morning was my sleep in day and I needed it. I am only working a half day today and then am off until Tuesday. So excited to get some down time.

Have a great weekend and Happy Holidays!
 
Julie Nice to have a sleep in day. Enjoy your holidays.

This morning I did Rev'd Up Rumble. Now I need to get ready to go to the shelter. This is our last transfer until next year.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on RUR!

I kept up with my workouts over the holiday weekend with some heavy weights (of course), hiking in BC Canada, and some mobility. I slept in this morning because yesterday I accidentally kicked the door jamb while I was doing some leg swings for a warm up and my 2nd toe is twice it's normal size this morning and plenty bruised. Hopefully it isn't broken.

Have a great day!
 
This morning I did an upper body workout. My toe is still sore and bruised but the swelling is coming down. It's getting less painful to walk up and down stairs. I think I got lucky and didn't break it. Guess I better find a new place to do my leg swings.

I am actually off work tomorrow through next Monday. So excited to have several days to sleep in.

Have a great rest of the week and New Year!
 
Julie Great job on all of your workouts over the holidays. Ouch that would hurt and you are lucky that you didn't break your toe. Enjoy your time off and we will catch up in the new year.

So I have also be keeping up with my workouts as well. Christmas was pretty quiet as well. Today I decided to take the day off and catch up on a few things around here.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Sorry to have been MIA for so long. I woke up last Wednesday morning with a cough, sore throat, and fever . The fever lasted about 24 hours but I was still not feeling great for several days, and DH got it a couple of days after I did. The kids were all home and luckily we were both feeling quite a bit better by Christmas day, but it was no fun. Carl, my youngest step-son got engaged right before Christmas and had planned a party here that night to celebrate, so I also had a party for 35 people to get ready for. The kids all helped with the food and decorations though, so that was good. Yesterday I did my first workout since early last week. I did the new Gloved up and sweaty. It was pretty good and pretty short, which was a good thing. This morning I did Total Body barbell. It moves really fast. I’ll have to do them both a couple more times before I really know what I think of them. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Cheryl Hope you got everything you wanted to catch up on done.

Pam Oh no so sorry you got sick. That is so exciting about the engagement. That is so nice they could all help out with the party since you were not feeling that great still. Great job on GUS (love that abbreviation) and TBB!

So my 5 days off went so fast. I only did two workouts over those 5 days. I had hoped to catch up on sleep and get some things done but I had some unexpected things come up and didn't get good sleep. I need a vacation from my staycation I guess. Once thing that was unexpected was that my parents are in AZ for 4 weeks and their dog is being boarded because she doesn't get along with other dogs. I got a call Friday morning that she was vomiting and having diarrhea so I had to pick her up and take her to the vet and then back to the boarder which took several hours just for driving. Turns out she had pancreatitis. Poor girl probably stressed with being at the boarder. She has one more week to go so hopefully she will be ok on the meds and special food the vet gave her. I did do a lower body workout yesterday and an upper body workout this morning.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Oh poor dog! That is a long time to be boarded, hopefully her last week goes well! I hope your parents are enjoying their time in AZ with the baby! Sorry to hear you weren’t successful in getting caught up on sleep during your staycation, but great job on your lower and upper body workouts!

I didn’t do a workout on Sunday, but yesterday I did ICE Bootcamp Circuit + Blizzard Blast and Icy core. This morning was PHA 3. It was really hard! Today I’m going to be putting away Christmas decorations and trying to get the house back in order. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Sorry that you have been sick but nice that you were better for Christmas. Congratulations on the engagement and that was nice that they helped out with the party since you still weren't feeling great. Good work on Gloved up and Sweaty and Total Body Barbell.

Julie Sorry that you didn't get caught up on your sleep. 4 weeks is a long time to be in a kennel. I hope she does better this last week. Great job on your upper and lower body workouts.

Pam Great work on ICE Bootcamp Circuit + Blizzard Blast and Icy Core and PHA 3.

So the weekend is a blur I can't remember what workouts I did. Sunday I put away all of the Christmas decorations and then we walked down to Starbucks with our friend for coffee. Sunday night DH and I went out for dinner and then went to see some Christmas lights that are at a local park. It was really nice but very crowded as well. Monday I did STS 2.0 Giant Sets and then went for a walk in the afternoon. This morning was Active Recovery. Then I went and got groceries and went to Costco as well. It was nice a quiet today so that was nice.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on ICE BCC + BB and Icy Core and PHA3! Hope you get everything done for finishing up the holidays.

Cheryl Great job on your workouts! Sounds like you also had lots of good times with friends and family. Great job on STS 2.0 GS and AR! Oh wow you got lucky on Costco being quiet.

This morning I was super tired and decided to use today as my sleep in day. I don't feel like I got much sleep after getting up to feed the dogs.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on STS 2.0 GS and AR! It sounds like you had a nice weekend even though it was a blur.

Julie Sorry you didn’t get much extra sleep on your sleep in day. Hopefully you will get caught up on sleep soon!

This morning was Rhythmic Step which is always fun. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Sorry that you aren't getting the sleep that you need. One more day and then it is the weekend for you.

Pam Great job on Rhythmic Step.

This morning I had my last physio appointment. My knee is doing much better and I have a lot more mobility. I need to keep up with the exercises though to make sure that my knee stays mobile. After my appointment I took the long way home so I could get in a good walk. Now I need to go and take my mom out for the afternoon.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on RS! Yeah, I'm really feeling drained and I am sure it is stress keeping me from getting sleep.

Cheryl Oh that is excellent news that your knee is doing better and you have more mobility. Hope you had a great day with your mom.

I still got crap sleep last night but I did a short mobility and bike ride in Italy! I am so glad it is my last day of work this week. I have a long day to make it through but I can do it.

Have a great weekend!
 
Cheryl Congratulations on your last physio appointment and your knee doing so much better! Keep up the great work! I hope you had fun with your mom.

Julie I hope your long day wasn’t too bad and you get some better sleep this weekend! Great job on your mobility work and ride in Italy!

This morning was Killer Legs with the Barre bonus. If the way my legs are feeling now is any indication, I won’t be doing too well on the toilet test tomorrow! I hope you both have a great day!

Pam
 
Good morning ladies. This morning was X10 Cardio circuit and Hi/Lo and then ICE Strong body stacked sets upper. It sounds like a lot but it was just a couple minutes over and hour total. My legs are not hurting nearly as much today as I was expecting them to, but I’m definitely feeling the leg workout. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Happy Saturday! This morning was Rock ’Em Sock ’Em kickbox with the blizzard blast. This afternoon I have a wish celebration for a family that is going to Disney. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Sorry that you still aren't sleeping well but I hope you will make it up this weekend. Great job on your mobility session and bike ride in Italy.

Pam Great job on Killer Legs + Bonus Barre, X10 Cardio Circuit + Hi/Lo + LITE Stacked Sets Upper and Rock'em Sock'em Kickbox. Glad that your legs were doing better than expects. Disney is such a fun place to go.

Thursday I did STS 2.0 Total Body Supersets then I went to the SPCA to help out. Friday I did STS 2.0 Mat Yoga. Then I got all the housework and laundry done plus cleaned the carpets. I was really pooped after I was done and I am still really tired today so I took it as a day off. I don't think I am going to do much today as I probably over did it yesterday.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on KL plus Barre bonus and X10 CC & HL plus ICE SBSSUB! That is good your legs weren't hurting that bad otherwise X10 may have been a little harder than it normally is. Great job on RSK plus BB! Hope the wish celebration went well.

Cheryl Great job on STS 2.0 TBS and Mat Yoga! Hope you got rested up after all that housework!

Friday I did a lower body workout and then did some things around the house! Saturday was mobility and then more housework. Sunday was upper body and then relaxing. This morning I did a lower body workout. I still feel like my sleep is really bad right now. I think I am just stressed with so much going on right now and with it being winter, I am really feeling the SAD coming on.

Have a great day!
