Strength in Numbers

Pam Great job on RUR and CF! Oh my goodness that is good that they have a treatment now for FIP. So happy to hear that he is already showing improvement too. Can't wait to hear about his full recovery.

Cheryl Great job on PP! Wow that is a lot of rain! Hopefully nothing too serious with DH.

This morning I did a heavy lower body workout. I got really good sleep and was feeling good so I was able to really push the weights and surprised myself. The Bernese was only 10 months old but he was a big lovable boy with huge paws! DH and I definitely decided though they are too big for us.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Wow, that is a LOT of rain!! Great job on PP! I hope everything goes well with your DH’s surgery.

Julie Great j bon your heavy lower body workout! That is awesome that you were able to push yourself! OMG, that dog sounds adorable! They do get huge, but the puppy had to look like a teddy bear!

This morning was Rockout Knockout. I started Cathes September rotation yesterday, but so far I’ve subbed different workouts both days . I am sticking to the general idea though. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great job on your heavy lower body workout. They are big dogs but very adorable.

Pam Good work on Rockout Knockout. I find I can't do her rotations anymore because I can't keep the energy level up for the whole month and some of the cardio workouts are just too hard for me now.

So DH does need to have a mole on his thigh cut out. His surgery date is for this coming Tuesday. It should be a very easy one to cut out though. So I was supposed to meet up with a friend for a walk this morning but it is raining really hard again so we had to postpone it. I ended up doing Yoga Relax instead. I used to be able to do most of the poses with no problem, however that is not the case now. Yikes do I ever need to work on my flexibility. I think this afternoon we are going to brave Costco. Hopefully it won't be too busy.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on RK! Subbing is good for helping keep you motivated and having fun.

Cheryl Great job on YR! Too bad it was raining so hard you couldn't get your walk in with your friend. Hope Costco wasn't too bad for you.

This morning I did a heavy upper body workout. It ended with pushups yuck! I swear those never become fun.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl I hope that your rain didn’t last too long. Great job on YR! Hopefully Costco wasn’t too bad. I was just thinking I am going to have to make a Costco run soon.

Julie Great job on your heavy upper body workout! Pushups are the worst, they always have such a big dread factor for me.

Yesterday afternoon I had a wish discovery. It was a really difficult one because it was for 2 boys who were autistic. There was a dog in a crate in the room who would not stop barking and we had a really hard time hearing the boys because of it. They also weren’t very interested in talking to us. Their mom was sitting there and wasn’t helpful at all, it was the strangest thing. We were able to get some good wish ideas, but it sure was awkward! This morning was STS 2 Lower body 1 and no equipment abs. The heavy weights in these workouts are really a challenge for me, but it has really helped using my Versa Grips. Thanks for the reminder about them Julie! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your heavy upper body workout. Push ups are never fun especially when they are at the end of a workout. That seems to make them even harder.

Pam That would a weird and difficult wish discovery. At least you got some ideas. Great work on STS 2 Lower Body 1 and no equipment abs.

The sun finally came out in the afternoon and Costco was busy but not too crazy. This morning I did LITE Pyramid Upper Body. Now I need to get some things done and then get out to my mom's.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on STS LB1 and NE abs! Oh yea, Versa Gripps are a lifesaver on heavy leg workouts. Oh it is too bad they couldn't put the dog in another room for just a little while. I am glad you were able to get some good ideas with all the difficulties.

Cheryl Great job on LITE PUB! Yea, so glad Costco wasn't too bad. It is always a dreadful experience for me to go there because you just never know how bad it is going to be.

This morning was my sleep in day and it was pretty good. Of course I am still looking forward to sleeping in more tomorrow and hopefully some over the weekend!

Have a great weekend!
 
Cheryl Wow, you had a great day with the sun coming out AND Costco not being too crowded . Great job on PUB, I hope you had a nice time with your mom!

Julie I think thedog would have been fine if they had let her out of the crate. They let her out when we were getting ready to leave and she was quiet and well behaved. Oh sleep in days are the best! I hope you enjoy some good sleep over the weekend!

Yesterday was so nice outside that we sat outside for most of the afternoon after we went and voted. This morning was STS 2 Upper Body 1. It was tough and my muscles are still talking to me! This afternoon I have bookclub and I’m thinking about braving Costco. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie It is always nice to have a sleep in day. I hope you can sleep in for the rest of the weekend.

Pam Great job on STS 2 Upper Body 1. Enjoy your book club and braving Costco.

This morning was P30 Mobility. I really do feel stretched out after that one. Now I need to get ready to go to the SPCA. We are getting a lot of kitties again today.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on P30 Mobility. I hope the kitty transfer went well!

Yesterday was a beautiful day so DH and I went for a bike ride, This morning I did a yoga burn. It just amazes me how flexible she is (and how flexible I’m NOT!) It’s supposed to be 80 degrees today so will have to do something outside. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on your bike ride and yoga burn. Enjoy your 80 degree weather today.

Yesterday I met up with my friend that I was supposed to walk with earlier in the week for our walk. It wasn't 80 degrees out (more like 40) but it wasn't raining so we took advantage of that. Then in the afternoon I got the laundry done and raked up a lot of leaves. I wanted to get it done before it started raining again. This morning I did LITE Pyramid Lower Body and STS 2 Mini Ball Abs. Now I need to figure out what I am going to do for the rest of the day since it is raining out.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on STS 2 UB1, bike ride with DH, and YB! I keep thinking I need to pull that out and do it again. Which one did you do? I think she was a dancer so that explains some of her flexibility.

Cheryl Great job on P30 Mobility and LITE PLB plus STS 2 MB abs! All that leaf raking was probably quite the arm workout too. I'm not ready for the 40s. We were in the 50s over the weekend and that is as low as I want to go.

Friday I did a heavy lower body workout and then did a bunch of cleaning and organizing around the house. DH and I got a closet and some cabinets cleaned out. Saturday I did my mobility workout and then did some more things around the house but just normal cleaning. Sunday was a heavy upper body day and this morning I slept in. Even with sleeping in another 2 hours, I still wanted to stay in bed where it was nice and warm.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job On your walk and your leaf raking workout! Also on PLB and mini ball abs. I hope you found something fun to do on your rainy day!

Julie The yoga burn was a monthly one and I just did the week 1 practice 1. It wasn’t too bad, but I couldn‘t do some of the moves where she was bringing her hand in front of her while swinging a leg around! Great job on your heavy lower body workout and all of your cleaning and organizing! Also on your mobility workout and heavy upper body workout!

Saturday I ended up blowing leaves. The leaves are just starting to fall so it wasn’t too bad. Sunday was my rest day and I did some running around and made falafel to freeze. We woke up to much cooler rainy weather on Sunday. This morning was Circuit Blast and I repeated the first 3 rounds to make it an hour instead of only 45 minutes. Now I have to get some work done around the house. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your heavy lower body workout, your mobility work and your heavy upper body workout. I need to get some closets and cabinets cleaned out too.

Pam It isn't too bad when the leaves just start to fall. Our tree is almost bare now and it is hard to keep up. Great work on Circuit Blast and adding more rounds to make it an hour long.

This morning I only had time to do Segment 3 of Stretch Max. I needed to get out to my mom's early to help her with some things, take her shopping and to an eye doctor appointment.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on CB extreme Pam-style! Oh I love falafels. I have never made them at home because I think that would be dangerous for me to have those around whenever I want.

Cheryl Great job on SM 3! That one is my favorite. I love how the band really helps get into the stretches.

This morning I did a lower body workout. It is deload week so it was lighter and less reps. It was a welcome 'rest.' This morning it was 70 on the way in. We are supposed to get to the 80s but it is going to be windy.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl I am not looking forward to the leaves falling more. So far we only have one tree that has lost about a third of it’s leaves and the rest are still holding on. It already feels like there have been a lot on the ground though! Great job on Stretch max! i hope you had a nice time with your mom!

Julie We haven’t eaten any of the falafel yet and I’ve never made them before so I hope they are good. I have them in the freezer so we can pull a few out at a time. Great job on your lower body workout and getting to take it a bit lighter this week. We are having beautiful sunny weather again too. I hope it lasts!

This morning was Hard Strikes plus core 1. I was really slogging it through the su/pu combo, but did all of the rounds. I had to pause to catch my breath after that though! Now I’m making some cookie dough because I’m going to the Ronald McDonald house with some friends tomorrow to bake cookies. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good work on your lower body workout. Oh wow you are getting some nice weather.

Pam Great job on Hard Strikes +Core 1 and getting through the su/pu combo. Tomorrow will be fun baking cookies with friends.

This morning was STS 2 Body Parts Chest. Then I needed to go get groceries. After I got home I had to get DH to the hospital to have his mole cut out. It was nice that we could walk over there since it was just across the street.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on HS plus core 1! I bet everyone at the Ronald McDonald house will love the fresh baked cookies.

Cheryl Great job on STS BP Chest! Oh wow that is nice to not have to drive to the hospital. Hope everything comes back good from getting it removed.

This morning was a lighter upper body workout. I was really dragging this morning. Not sure if it was not getting good sleep or the fact that during deload weeks I take a break from caffeine.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on BP Chest. I hope all went well with your DHs mole removal. That is so nice that you can walk there!

Julie Great job on your upper body workout. I’m sure taking a break from caffeine and a lousy sleep were bother contributing factors to how you were feelIng.

This morning was Mobility 1 and 2. My abs are so sore from yesterdays workout so it was really nice to do some stretching. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Good job on your upper body workout. It is probably a bit of not getting a good nights sleep and taking a break from caffeine that makes you feel like you are dragging.

Pam Great work on Mobility 1 and 2.

This morning was STS 2 Triceps and Standing Abs Mobility Warmup. Then I got the housework done. This afternoon I went out to get some errands done.

Have a great day.
