Oooh...sparkles...lol! Thanks for starting it off bopper!

Yes people, I know it isn't May - yet.

Insane work-out today, did a PR on the treadmill(I mean recently) and pushed the weights in my circuits.

Morning all...rains have stopped. Over 100 road closures here due to flooding but I haven't seen any homes ruined like the Pensacola area so no one is complaining here. Such a mess they have down south.

Dropped van off this morning and ran the hills home, now taking Lucy out.

MickD, I hated the Santa Anas...gave me terrible sinus headaches. Don't miss them at all! My gf posted that it was 100* in Coronado...bleck, crazy for April.

Have a great first day of May ladies....

Hi Bopper & Patty-May I join? Lifelong on-again-off-again exerciser here. Past 3 years I've been most successful. However, some days it's still a struggle. My goal is 40-60 minutes if cardio 5 days/week (or more). Meeting this morning, appointments later today, heading to gym in-between. Thanks for the inspiration & another way to be accountable.

Morning,

Hi gimama of course you may join.....we all struggle at times....but we get back up and keep going . Keep up the great work!

Pppmint we have the rain too but not like they have south....it's terrible...

Very foggy here and only 40 and that's the high for today!

Hope everyone is keeping on track as best they can....it is a struggle with everything life hands us so we just do our best and forget the rest ( if we can )

Have a good day!

Bumping this up as I had trouble finding it.

Glmama, we'd love you to join us. All are welcome.

I won't get in a workout today due to a meeting after work. It'll be time for bed by the time I get home!

Patty, agree with you about the crazy weather. A couple of weeks ago I couldn't sleep because it was too hot. Last night it was so cold I had to get my down blanket and a quilt to stay warm. I sure hope the floods in your area don't do too much damage.

Hi, Bopper. At least it's not snowing on you today!

Hi and happy May to all! I did 2.6mi./34 min. on the treadmill...

It is 95....and yes Patti, I had a screaming sinus headache when the Santa Anas rolled in Monday nite. My sis lives in Alexandria and she is done with the rain...her condo neighbor flooded her condo and all her wood floors are warped to boot....she's done with water.

May I join? I just started working out again in January and for the past couple of months, I've been doing 40-45 minutes of cardio four times per week. Usually Zumba, which I really enjoy. Thought it might be good to check in here because I haven't been well this week and haven't worked out since Sunday. I miss it so much! Hoping to get back to it tomorrow. I just don't want to lose the great momentum I've built!

I did the intermediate program today on the TG. Wanted to go outside but it's still raining and only 40, so not pleasant.

MickD you did good yesterday...

nomless you got that right, at least it isn't white!

Welcome to the new posters! Love to see new "faces"!

MickD...I love Alexandria...Old Town. Hardwood floors are never the same after they get wet.

It was beautiful out this morning! Biking, running, walking, weight-lifting...getting it all in today!

I'm having trouble finding this one too bopper....not used to the new heading...lol!

Waving to everyone, hope you get to work-out today nomless!!

Iluvlucy — Fri, 02 May 2014 15:53:23 GMT

bopper, we posted at about the same time...Lucy, well, lets just say she's been a pistol the past couple of days. In 2.5 miles she tried to eat a worm, a bumble-bee, and a robin's egg...and that's not counting the usual sticks, mulch, dirt, berries, and leaves.

And I might as well be honest, she's turned into the neighborhood "bully"...lol. She doesn't like any other dogs in her grass, and she lets them know...VERY sassy! It's embarrassing but we're moving....

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

nomless — Fri, 02 May 2014 16:02:56 GMT

Sweet little Lucy is a bully?? Oh, my. LOL.

Hi, Vacinnia, nice to meet you. Welcome!

Hi to Mick and Bopper and everyone.

Tonight I'll do cardio for sure. I haven't been able to get a workout in for 3 days, and I am a little surprised but happy to say that I miss it. Gotta get some moving in, so tonight it the night. Will do cardio today and weights tomorrow.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

MickD — Fri, 02 May 2014 21:33:30 GMT

I didn't workout today as I have a heat rash ....TMI, but seriously?? Just cleaned my house for a few hours...hotter than blazes again today...I am dun with it! I hope everyone has a happy and active weekend!

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

nomless — Sat, 03 May 2014 01:09:39 GMT

Mick, that's crazy!

Yay! I did a 50 min cardio workout. It felt good to move again.

Bopper, your May graphics are beautiful. Hello to new and frequent posters. What a joy to see spring weather. I hope everyone's moods are lightened. Enjoy your weekend.

Long work day - went to gym after work - then went through Freddy's drive-thru window and came home with a veggie burger. Had a salad for lunch and I was getting hungry.

We have a PIYO class at the gym -- I haven't done it yet. What can you all tell me about this class?

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

glmama — Sat, 03 May 2014 03:43:32 GMT

Thanks, nomless, patty, & bopper, for the warm welcome.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

Iluvlucy — Sat, 03 May 2014 16:32:52 GMT

Happy Saturday!

ury, if you like yoga and pilates, you'll like it. It's a very long hour for someone like me...lol. Totally depends upon your style of exercise.

Lucy and I did over 4 miles so far(2 and 2) and I did a yoga tape. A couple of those miles were pretty fast.

I was going to go to OTF but I waited too long and the classes are full so I'm going to run back up to the amphitheater and do another leg work-out there with the box jumps, lunges, jump-squats, etc, then run home. Honestly, I'm kind of glad because I don't like when they're packed like that anyway, it's like a sauna in there from all the hot bodies.

Yes, nomless, apparently Lucy thinks she owns the grounds...no other dog is allowed on "her" turf.

Have a great day everyone!

Patty, you're amazing with your activity. You go, girl! As for me, I just did 3 sets weghts, and I'm done in.

Re: Welcome to the May Exercise Check In

vac — Sat, 03 May 2014 17:39:01 GMT

Thanks for the inspiration! I got back on track this morning and did 40 minutes of Zumba and 15 minutes of core and upper body strengthening on the ball.
