Re: WELCOME TO THE JANUARY EXERCISE THREAD FOR 2018

Good one, DrKelli. Lol ☺

 

No ice for you, Laura, I hope. 

 

Today I did a Simmons Project Hope dvd. Cardio, toning, balance. As always, I love his happy  positive outlook.

Re: WELCOME TO THE JANUARY EXERCISE THREAD FOR 2018

I love that DVD set, @nomless. I think it was his last one before he left the spotlight.  Back in the 80s, I was a member of his Anatomy Asylum in Denver (it was a chain) and there were a couple of instructors that I loved.  Unfortunately, they didn't last very long.

@DrKelli, I have  not heard of Anatomy Asylum, I had to Google it to find it came before Slimmons. I wish he'd make an occasional appearance to let us know he's ok.

Re: WELCOME TO THE JANUARY EXERCISE THREAD FOR 2018

Hey everyone, busy day it seems today.   I did 3 miles on the treadmill, 5 on the bike and did about 20 on my reformer, stretched and made 3 loaves of orange/date bread, and then babysat my 1 1/2 year old granddaughter and that's a whole other ball game  LOL...she is so sweet but she never sits down for long.   Then we had my son and the 2 granddaughters for dinner.   We grilled on the deck ( we grill all winter long) and they stayed until about 7:30 and then left.   She tires me out!   

 

I'm on my heating pad now, my lower back is a little tight.   I also did day 8 of the Plank challenge, did the Jackknife challenge also.   Is anyone keeping up with the plank challenge I posted the chart too?

 

 Have a good night!

@bopper  Still planking!

 

 

So the gym was a ghost town since all of Georgia was up late watching their college team lose.  No Nudie or Mrs. Rudeness.

 

It was blazingly hot.  I don't really sweat but the heat was really turned up to almost 70.  Really?  

 

I got nothing for you this morning other than I did my normal Pound and Power routines which I both hated.  Got through them both and now I am off to work, the pharmacy, work, and then finally home again.  Can't wait!

 

This non-stop schedule is really catching up with me.  Have a great Tuesday all!

Good morning everyone.

 

Tuesday is my heavy day.  Body & Sculpt, Flexibility class and Zumba.  

 

Enjoy your day.

Re: WELCOME TO THE JANUARY EXERCISE THREAD FOR 2018

@Laura14, our group ex room is freezing at the gym.  Even the instructor said something about it yesterday.  I would rather exercise in the cold than be overheated.

 

I have small group today and I need to do some practice tonight when I get home because I have a stupid HOA board meeting tomorrow night so that will cut practice short.  I'm subbing Zumba at my gym Thursday and then the big tryout on Thursday night!

Re: WELCOME TO THE JANUARY EXERCISE THREAD FOR 2018

Hey hey, Laura yes I am still planking and doing jackknife.   This morning I did 3 miles on the treadmill, 5 on the bike, and used the reformer for arms and stretching.  Periformis is still an ongoing issue.  It seems when I don't exercise at all for 2 days it's good, as soon as I start it flares up but I am never stopping so it is what it is.

 

I just got back from the trail also, it feels balmy at 27 degrees and the sun is out.  I loved it.  Just stood in 1 spot and let the sun shine on my face.

 

I think many watched that game last night, we did too.

 

Richard Simmons, I loved his, so much energy and posivity.   Anyone remember Gilad and his Sister Ada who had the Basic Training program on ESPN?   I wish his show was still on.  I don't livestream or do that stuff.   I need it on the big tv for me to enjoy it.  I also remember a show on in the wee hours on ESPN called Bodyshaping and I liked that too.  It was also filmed in Hawaii.

 

Oh, gotta get my stuff out of the dryer, have a good day!  Keep planking to those doing the challenge!

OMG I still have my Gilad VCR tapes somewhere!  I loved him.  LOL  They were good workouts!

 

So I hit my 10,000 steps yesterday and went to go look at my Fitbit celebrate when it buzzed and I accidentally clicked it off.  ARGH!!  I deserve my 10 second party on my wrist.  It's just not right to miss that man.  So wrong.  Smiley Sad
