Strength in Numbers

Cheryl Great job on STS 2 UB 1. Wow, you start your Christmas baking early. I LOVE butter tarts!! My grandmother always made them and they were so good!

Julie Great job on your heavy lower body workout. It;s too bad your body wasn’t cooperating with your mind, but it’s always a good idea to listen!

This morning was supposed to be Rock Em Sock Em kickbox, but I don’t like that one very much so I did Cardio Kicks. That one is always fun and flies by! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great work on your heavy lower body workout. Good for you in listening to your body and doing what you could and not pushing it.

Pam Good job on Cardio Kicks. It is a fun one.

This morning was RWH LI Hiit 1 and bonus abs 1. Then I got groceries and this afternoon I met up with a friend for tea.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on Cardio Kicks! That is much more fun the RSK!

Cheryl Great job on RWH LI Hiit 1 plus bonus abs 1!

This morning was a heavy upper body workout! Today my body was a little more cooperative on some of the heavier moves.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on LIH 1. Meeting up for tea sounds so civilized .

Julie Great job on your heavy upper body workout! It’s always more fun when your body is cooperating!

This morning was Rhythmic Step, another fun one. I’m not sure what else is up today yet, other than a Wish Discovery this evening. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam Great job on RS! Hope your wish delivery goes well.

This morning was my sleep in day. Yesterday when I was cleaning up the yard from the dogs, I found a few bird eggs. I didn't think they lay eggs this late in the Fall so I am not sure what is going on.

Have a great weeknd!
 
Julie I hope you enjoyed your sleep In day! That’s funny that you mention that about the bird eggs. When I was cleaning up leaves in the yard yesterday this really big bird came walking through the fence and just stood there for awhile. I never saw it fly, it just walked around. I told my DH that it looked like a baby hawk because it wasn’t flying and because of how it’s feathers looked, but there aren’t babies this time of year.

This morning was LI Series Total body trisets lower body split. All of those dixie cups moves really get me in that one! I also did Ab circuits no equipment abs. Now it’s mostly laundry and work around the house, Have a great day!

Pam
 
Happy Friday! This morning was LI series Total body trisets upper body split. I’m getting about a D- on the toilet test today after all of those dixie cup lunges yesterday. Ouch! DH had a 5 am flight this morning so it was no fun driving him to the airport at 3:30. I did come home and go back to bed for awhile. It took a long time to get back to sleep, but I did for a little while. I have a feeling I’ll be falling asleep early tonight! Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie Great work on your heavy upper body workout and that your body was more cooperative.

Pam Good job on Rhythmic Step and what ever else you got up too.

Julie That is strange to find bird eggs this late in the year. Enjoy your weekend.

Pam Good work on Total Body Trisets Lower Body split and Upper Body Split. I hope you are doing better with the toilet test. The only thing nice about driving at 3:30 in the morning is that there isn't much traffic.

I have had a few busy days and I haven't had time to post. Wednesday I had to leave early to get my mom to a doctors appointment so I didn't have time to workout. We also went to a Christmas store and found a few things to buy. Thursday I did STS 2 Lower Body 1 and just as I finished it my SPCA manager called to say that the transfer truck had broken down and they weren't able to bring our cats to us. So since I could fit the crates into my car I drove an hour with my manager to pick them up and then drove them back to our shelter. Then it was a few more hours of helping out before I got home. This morning I was tired so I just did the housework and laundry. I did have more energy in the afternoon so I went out for a walk and then stopped at a store to start buying presents for Christmas on my way home.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl You did have some busy days! That was nice that you guys were able to go pick up the cats as I imagine they were stressed out. Great job on STS 2 LOB1 and your housework and laundry. We have started our Christmas shopping too, even though it still seems to soon. Where in the world di this year go?!

Saturday my legs and glutes were still pretty sore so I did a Yoga Burn workout. Then I was pretty lazy for the rest of the day and went to the hockey game that night. I was pretty worried because our 2 main goalies were both out and one of our star was also out, but we won 4-0! Yesterday morning I did a Mindy Mylrea step workout and then did some work around the house before the next hockey game. We looked pretty bad during the first period, but they looked like a different team and ended up winning again. I took a friend to the games since DH was out of town. This morning was Rockout Knockout. I feel like I’ve been doing that one a lot, but it always goes by fast. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Pam This year has gone by fast hasn't it. Great job on Yoga Burn, your Mindy Mylrea Step workout and Rockout Knockout. You have a good team this year. When other players can step up to fill the missing players and still win games is a good sign.

Saturday I did STS 2 Total Body Supersets and then it was a lazy rest of the day. Sunday I did STS 2 Upper and Lower Body Foam Rolling and then went out for a short walk and then in the afternoon we went with our friend and Zoey to Starbucks and sat outside to people watch. This morning I met up with a friend for a 10km walk. We timed it just right as the rain started just as we were getting back to our cars. We just had a hail storm right now too so the ground is pretty white but it will melt fast. We are in for some nasty weather the next couple of days so it was good to get our walk in this morning.

Have a great day.

Pam Great job on LIS TBS LB plus Ab circuits NE abs! I forgot about those dixie cup exercises. Sneakily hard! Great job on LIS TBS UB and all those pushup versions. Great job on YB and your MM step workout and RK! Wow that is great your hockey team is doing well with some of the top players being out.

Cheryl Great job on STS 2 LB1! Oh that was really great of you to drive to pick up the cats since the truck broke down. Great job on STS 2 TBSS and STS 2 ULFR! That is a long walk and lucky you got back before the rain started. Hope everything is ok when the weather hits.

Sorry for not posting yesterday. I had to a long drive to take Gunner to a special vet by 8am. He is getting tested to see if he can partake in a trial for a supplement that might help improve cardiac function in dogs. Anyway, Friday I did a heavy lower body workout and then did some cleaning before taking Gunner to the regular vet for a chiropractor appointment. Saturday was my mobility workout and some running errands. Sunday was a heavy upper body workout and then being lazy. This morning I did a heavy lower body workout.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl I think everyone is surprised by how good our team is this year. There was so much complaining that we didn‘t do better last year and that was supposed to be our chance for the cup. It’s been fun, but it‘s still early. Great job on TBS, STS 2 U+L FR and your walks. Glad you timed that long walk well.

Julie Oh wow, that would be great if Gunner gets into the trial. How did you learn about it? Great job on your heavy lower body workout, mobility, heavy upper body and lower body workouts!

This morning was Perfect pump lower, upper, abs, and extended stretch. I really like the extended stretch in that one, although it really just feels like a regular stretch. Now I’m thinking about going out and blowing some more leaves. It’s s never ending job right now, but at least it’s beautiful outside. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie I hope Gunner can take part in the trial and that the supplement may help him with his cardiac function. Great work on your heavy lower body workout, your mobility workout and your heavy upper and lower body workouts.

Pam Good job on PP Lower, Upper, Abs and Extended Stretch. I hope you get the leaves cleaned up. When they are falling all the time it is a never ending battle.

This morning was STS 2 Upper Body 2. Then I went to get groceries. I noticed that the mountains now have snow which will make the skiers very happy. We are supposed to get a cyclone bomb later this afternoon which will bring high winds and more rain or snow. I am glad that I don't have to go anywhere this afternoon.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on PP L,U, Abs and ES! Hopefully you got your leaves done and could enjoy the nice weather.

Cheryl Great job on STS 2 UB2! Oh no, stay safe with the storm that is coming.

There is a Dog Aging Project going on right now that is researching why dogs don't live longer and what can be done to help them live longer healthier lives. Gunner has been part of that study for a few years. Mostly it has been just providing them information on how he is aging and his vet records but they reached out over the summer and said he could be eligible for this particular study if we wanted to do it. It might not help him live longer but it could be good research to help with future dogs.

This morning I did a heavy upper body workout!

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on STS 2 UB2! Wow, a cyclone bomb definitely sounds like something you want to stay inside for! Stay warm and safe!

Julie Wow, that is so cool that Gunner is part of that study. The treatment that my foster Mac is on is a result of a study at UC Davis several years ago. When I first heard about FIP there was no treatment, and now thousands of cats have been cured. It’s so amazing. Now I’m hoping they will come up with a vaccine for it! Great job on your heavy upper body workout!

This morning was the original Imax. It’s always a fun one. It’s supposed to be a rainy day here so I will be staying in and doing laundry. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Julie That is so cool that they have a Dog Aging Project and Gunner is part of it. Good job on your heavy upper body workout.

Pam Great work on the Original Imax.

This morning was LITE Cardio Party. It was windy last night and there were some power outages and trees that came down but we were lucky. There are a lot of branches laying around so I am going to try to get that all cleaned up before I go out to my mom's.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Pam Great job on Imax! That would be so good if they could make a vaccine for FIP.

Cheryl Great job on LITE CP! I saw on the news that 2 people in Seattle area died from that storm. Glad you stayed safe.

This morning was my sleep in day. We started to get flurries last night and this morning we had a dusting on our deck. Yuck!

Have a great day!
 
Julie I saw that on the news as well that 2 people had died in the storm in Seattle. Oh yuck flurries. I hope it doesn't stick around.

This morning was STS 2 Lower Body 2. Then I spent most of the day at the SPCA helping out.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on CP! I’m glad to hear that you didn’t get it too bad from the storm. It sounds like it was a pretty nasty one

Julie Flurries, yuck! We were watching the Pittsburgh game last night and it was snowing like crazy wherever they were. It was so ugly!

Cheryl Great job on LB2. Those STS 2 lower body and total body workouts kill my forearms!

Yesterday was a pretty nice day so we went for a bike ride. I was a bit worried that it would be cold, but it was actually really nice. This morning we had a freeze warning, but it only got down to 34. My workout was S+S PHA plus bonus abs. I’m meeting some friends for lunch and then have a vet appointment for Mac and Cream Puff. Have a great day!

Pam
 
Yesterday I was having one of those days where nothing was going well. After an already frustrating day, I had Cream Puff and Mac in their carriers ready to go to the vet. Apparently the door wasn’t closed tightly on Cream Puff’s carrier, and when I picked it up she busted out. Then she was NOT having it to get back. I had to put on big gloves and I still couldn’t get back in without incurring bodily harm, so she will have to go another day. Then last night when I was sitting in there with them, she went over and sat in the carrier! The little jerk! I’m hoping today is a better day. It started with Body Max step and power circuits, so off to a good start at least! Have a great weekend!
