Re: WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Good afternoon!

 

This morning I had a 9:30 meeting with my trainer at the gym.  Got there a little early and did 15 minutes on the bike.  Then we did a 30 minute workout.  She has added squats to my routine.  I hate squats but they are so good for my legs.  Afterwards I had to return something to Sephora and then I went grocery shopping.  Home now for the rest of the day and already in my comfy clothes.  Its a beautiful sunny day today but supposedly we are getting another storm tomorrow and Sunday.

 

Have a good Friday!

Re: WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hi everyone!   Weather is crazy here...we are now almost 80...house is comfortable yet because nights have been cool.  I'm thinking we're probably going to have to turn  on AC again .

Today I had alot of work on horses, they're getting into some sticky weed and itchy balls stuck everywhere...so I cut most out and trimmed their forlock and manes.

 I put my little Christmas tree up and started decorating the console under the t.v.

I like red lights on it and my little nativity.  I'm shopping for beautiful deer to add too.

 I did 3 sets of squats 8 reps each ,and incline chest/push-ups yesterday ...all outside on my front porch.  I used a large raised planter to position myself for the push ups.

I actually feel slightly sore in my legs today.

 I really need some strength in my legs, so figured id start up again. 

 Made a chicken stir fry for myself, and spare ribs with corn on the cob for this guy the Lord hast given me....I feel like picking a fight with him 😡...hee hee.

 So couple things id like to mention...my youngest daughter has an interview Monday for Kitchen design company 🙏

   Also, unfortunately my middle daughter will need another surgery. 

Apparently one spot was over looked because it doesn't have the characteristics of melanoma..but daughter  insisted on a biopsy and it is positive for early melanoma ...so thats coming up soon.🙁

 Yesterday I did food shopping and a trip to the butcher....everything just keeps going up in price...not just a few cents either, im talking $$dollars....its sickening. 

 Anyway...all is well and doing the best with whatever comes my way.

Have a great weekend everyone!! 🌞

Happy Saturday all! 

 

I did some heavy duty clearance power shopping at Walmart before I came home and finished up my strength challenge. I upped all of my weights except for shoulders. I am so glad I vacuumed since I will be crawling over the floors tomorrow. I can feel it coming.

 

Proud of myself though. I could barely get the bar over my head for legs, but it was accomplished. I did my Supergirl pose and I am ready, peeps! I think I am going to get some 7.5 hand weights too. 

 

@Dazlin I know Zazzle does a whole bunch of personal items including puzzles. You need to watch them for shipping from what I remember (it's been a while), but I am sure Etsy probably also has people and even a photo place might do it locally. Check out Staples and Walgreens. They might have that in store at their photo and printing shops.

 

My Amazon order got delayed until Monday. I took that as a sign to just order what I want and know is perfect from the Q and pay the shipping which is now populating correctly. I also threw in some free ship items for myself and extra gifts to make me feel better about the shipping cost. I made an honest business out of them for my $7.50! 🤣

 

I am so happy ABC is back on Youtube TV. I saw Dancing with the Stars is doing Prince night this week and I would have jumped had I missed that. It's bad enough I missed the Golden Girls special. 

 

I am following my ChatGPT weekly program so I am off for my protein drink after exercise. Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Heart

Re: WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

Hello, it was raining this morning, then the sun came out and the blue sky appeared and it actually was a nice day.   I did some treadmill, and strength standing and sitting on the Vibration plate, then took a woods walk, and I wore my hunter orange just in case, since opening day is today. 

 

@Dazlin I posted the link.  You just go into your own photos and upload a picture and they make it into a jigsaw puzzle.  I hope that helps.   Sounds like you had a busy day cleaning up the herd.  Dinner sounds delicious!

 

I got some nice sunset pictures if it wasn't for the telephone lines crossing the road here.  Tomorrow highs in the 30's!!   Today 48!   That's a drop!

 

I didn't get any boxes today. 

 

I'm thinking of getting a barbell set.  I saw a set on Amazon with 40 lbs.   Some of the workouts use a barbell and I really do need to work on my strength at this age.

 

Have a good night!   Oh @JudyL how are you doing with all the rain I am seeing for CA, it does look to be south of you though.

Re: WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER EXERCISE THREAD

@bopper That's how I do my strength workouts. Not all bars are equal or light. You might want to just pop into a Walmart and see what kind you like. My bar is a bit heavy, which means you stay lighter on the weights, but I like the squeeze clamps.

 

That's another thing you want to be sure you like. There are different kinds of clamps to secure the weights onto the bar and you want to make sure you can handle them and they work.

Hi @bopper  - We had some rain on Thursday that lasted most of the day but none since.  Think the rain you must be seeing is in Southern California.

 

I am a bit freaked out because I discovered Willow has fleas!  How does an indoor cat get fleas?!  Will have to go to the pet store tomorrow and get some flea meds.  Feel like I'm itching all over.  LOL

 

No exercise for me today.  Did do 4 loads of laundry though.
