Strength in Numbers

Cheryl I am glad your trip to Calgary wasn't too bad except the delay coming back. I hope your mom's echo comes back with good news.

Well my weekend was a bust. I got horrible sleep Thursday and thought it was just due to stress but Friday I could barely move and started to get achy. Yep I came down with the flu and have been pretty much useless all weekend. I thought I was starting to feel better yesterday but I am still struggling today. I did the bare minimum over the weekend only doing what I absolutely had to so no workouts. When I can finally start working out again, I am going to have to take it slow.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Oh no what a way to spend your weekend. I hope you start feeling better soon and can get into your workouts again slowly.

Yesterday morning I did LM&R Restorative Yoga and then walked down to the farmers market for some things. This morning was LM&R Core Fusion and then I met up with a friend for a walk. It was pretty icy on the paths so we had to take it slow. It is cold here but we do have bright blue sky so I will take it.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on LM&R RY and LM&R CF! Glad you were safe on the icy path. A bright blue sky is nice to see in the winter.

I am still not feeling great. Whatever this is it is awful. I do feel like I am getting better but it is really slow. I am not getting restful sleep even with Nyquil. Ugh!

Have a great day!
 
Julie Sorry that you still aren't feeling well and not getting a restful nights sleep either. A good nights sleep does help you recover faster that is for sure. Fingers crossed that you sleep better tonight.

This morning I did STS 2 Total Body Giant sets though I just did the premix with just the unilateral section. I was really tired for some reason this morning so I had no energy at all but I managed to get that done. Then I went and got groceries. Now I think I am just going to relax.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on STS2 TBGS unilateral premix especially with being tired!

I slept a little better last night and for the first time in almost a week, I didn't wake up feeling like I was dead. I actually got a few things done today before I started work too. I think I might be headed in the right direction at least.

Have a great day!
 
Cheryl Great job on LM&R FB!

I finally got good sleep last night. I think I am pretty much in the clear. I will probably have a dry cough for a few weeks still. It always seems that sticks around for a long time. I was actually able to do a little 10 minute mobility this morning and it felt so good to move again.

Have a great weekend!
 
Deanna That is one of my favorite ones too.

Julie Glad that you got a better nights sleep and could do some mobility work this morning. I hope you have a better weekend than the last one.

This morning was STS 2 Mat Yoga. Now I need to get ready to go to the SPCA to help out. I was supposed to take my mom for a consultation for cataract surgery today but she is not feeling well. So it has been rescheduled for next Thursday.

Have a great day.

Although there is Pizza Presses in that Pilates workout. I have a love/hate relationship with Pizza Press! LOL!
 
Cheryl Great job on STS 2 MY! Hope your mom is feeling better and she didn't get what seems to be going around.

Friday I did a lower body workout and then did some things around the house before taking Ruby to the vet for her annual exam. Saturday my body was so sore even though I did lighter weights than normal (ok maybe not that much lighter). It felt like I hadn't worked out for months instead of just one week. I did do my mobility workout hoping that would help loosen my muscles. Sunday was an upper body day and this morning I slept in. I still have an annoying dry cough but other than that I am feeling better.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Glad that you are feeling better except for your annoying cough. Good job on your lower body workout, your mobility work and your upper body work. It is amazing how after some workouts you feel so sore, I feel like that after my Saturday workout.

So my mom is doing better but is still sick. At least she has started to get her appetite back. Friday I decided to take it as a day off and Saturday I did STS 2 Total Body Trisets. I hadn't done that one for a while so it kicked my butt. Sunday I went for a walk and this morning I did STS 2 Lower Body 1.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Glad she is getting her appetite back. It is important to eat to get better. I had the same problem and had troubles eating when I was sick a few weeks ago. Great job on STS TBT and STS 2 LB1!

This morning was a lower body workout. I am still feeling weak from being sick and being off working out. Plus I don't think it helps that we are in the thick of winter now and I am getting tired of the cold, snow, and blustery weather. 30 days till the first day of spring!

Have a great day!
 
Julie Good job on your lower body workout. It does take some time to get back into it after being sick. Sorry that you are still in the thick of winter. For us it has gotten warmer but now we have to deal with rain. The countdown begins :D.

This morning was LM&R Functional Upper Body + the bonus upper body balance disc workout. Then I went and got groceries. Now I am going to meet up with a friend for tea.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on LM&R FUB plus BUBBD! Did you see Cathe is releasing a LM&R 2? Hope you had a great time with your friend.

This morning I did an upper body workout. I have gotten decent sleep the last two nights but I am not feeling 100% still. We are super cold these next couple of days but might start warming up next week. Fingers crossed anyway.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Yes I did see that Cathe was releasing a new series. I really do like LM&R so I am looking forward to the new series. Great job on your upper body workout and getting a decent nights sleep. Fingers crossed that the weather warms up for you.

So I got a crappy nights sleep for some reason. I seemed to be awake for most of the night. I was glad that todays workout was Functional Yoga Fusion though it did seem hard today. I was going to get some housework done today but I am too tired so I think I am just going to go and get some errands done.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Good morning, this morning was LM&R Functional Lower Body + Lower Body Balance Disc Bonus. Now I need to get out to my mom's and get her to a consultation for cataract surgery.

Have a great weekend.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Sorry about the crappy sleep. Great job on FYF and LM&R FLB + LBBDB! Hope you are getting better sleep.

Friday I did a lower body workout and then had to run some errands. Saturday was my mobility and some chores around the house. Sunday was my upper body day and then in the afternoon I noticed Gunner was acting weird. When we let him outside, he had pee in his blood. We went to an emergency vet but the wait was going to be 3-4 hours so we decided to wait and get him into our vet today. He has an appointment at 3. I hate making him wait. I bet it is a UTI and I know those are painful and annoying. He is being a good boy though.

Have a great day!
 
Julie Great job on your lower body workout and your mobility work. Poor Gunner I hope the meds will help his UTI. They are no fun at all.

Friday I did STS 2 Upper Body 2 and then I got some housework and laundry done. In the afternoon we had a small earthquake. It felt like something had hit our house and but it only lasted a couple of seconds. Saturday and Sunday I decided to take as days off. I have been pretty tired so I thought it would be better to rest. This morning I did LM&R Functional Total Body and then I got groceries. I am meeting up with friends tomorrow so I wanted to get it done.

Have a great day.

Cheryl
 
Cheryl Great job on STS 2 UB2 and LM&R FTB! Glad you didn't have any damage and the earthquake didn't last long. We have supposedly had some earthquakes around here but I have never felt one even when others do.

Yesterday DH took Gunny to our vet and he does have some type of UTI so they started him on antibiotics and he has to go back for a checkup next week. This morning I did a heavy lower body workout. I was feeling pretty good for the first time in a couple of weeks.

Have a great day!
