GETTING IT DONE January 2016 - January 2020

Hallo Sherry,

STS D16 is done.

Sherry - I needed to take an extra rest day yesterday. I was tired from my birthday activities. Nice lifting today. Glad you enjoy CF.

I will be back tomorrow after my doc appointment. I am seeing a specialist for my knee.
 
Saw a Orthpeaedist today. He took more X-rays of my knee. I got a shot in my knee which should help for the pain. If the shot doesn't help I need surgery on my knee. I hope the shot will help for the pain. I can't get surgery with Brawler. DH also needs surgery on his knee, he tore his meniscus two weeks ago. We are doing really well, lol. Brawler weights a lot that doesn't help either for us. It is what it is, right? He also wants me to continue to keep everything low impact, which I have been doing already.
 
Happy Monday!

Beautiful day to get the dogs out for walks, so chose LMP Challenge for a quick, hit the main muscle groups and get the heartrate up wo. Did just what it needed to do.

Belinda - I do hope the shot helps you. Between you, your DH and Brawler . . . sending much needed payers. Yes, you have been doing a great job on the low impact. And I'm sure you have some guns to show off, too. ;)

Be back tomorrow - another day at it. 'Til then.
 
Good morning,

STS D17 plus SBF stretch is done.

Sherry - thank you! I wished I could take Brawler for longer walks. Enjoy the outdoors.

Be back tomorrow.
 
Good morning,

I did another Low impact workout from YT plus SBF Spring into the Summer rotation D3 Quick Tabata + Back target. I am really liking YT workouts.

I will be back tomorrow.
 
Hi all!

Catching up 'cause life has been a bit busy:
Tuesday - went to CF with DH. 12 minutes of super intensity rowing, single arm squats and burpees. Short but went all out so exhausting.
Wednesday - no wo. Moved DD to an apt she's subleasing for the summer. Starts her job today.
Thursday - plan to go to CF with DH.

Belinda - Do what you can. You are doing great on the wo's. I need to check out YT.

'Til later.
 
Hi Sherry,

M2 W2 D18 is done plus SBF cardio.

Sherry - great job with all your workouts. Have fun at CF tonight with your husband.

I will be back tomorrow.
 
Good afternoon,

I did another kickboxing workout from youtube and SBF workout.

Sherry - good job with your workout as well.

That's it for me today.
 
Made it to Friday!

CF tonight with DH and DD. Not moving as much weight as I wanted for the overhead presses, but did what I am capable of. Total everything afterwards, and I moved >8000#'s between the deadlifts, cleans and presses, so really not shabby at all.

Belinda - Nice to having you moving about with some kickboxing. Like it when our kids wo with us, right?

Enjoy your evening.
 
Good morning!

Went to ballet this morning. Worked out all the kinks from last night's weight work.

Pouring rain here - all day long. Good day to stay in and chill with the kids, who are home for the weekend. But first, getting my laundry done before they take over the machines.

Hope you are having a good one.
 
Good evening,

I had my Mother's day today instead of tomorrow. It's suppose to rain starting tomorrow until next week. Not looking forward to all that rain. Anyway, my kids took me to our favorite winery. They reserved a table outside. My kids decorated the table was nicely decorated with lots of goodies and fresh flower . We got so many compliments on the flowers. Since it was mother day I ate a little of everything. Had some really good wine, good food and amazing company. I couldn't ask for more. Mother's day and the weather was perfect :)

I did do another kickboxing workout from YT :) Burned off lots of calories and it was a lot of fun. I also did SBF mat workout. I didn't finished that one yesterday. Susanne had scheduled 2 workouts, wasn't in the mood to do 2.

Sherry - my kids didn't workout with me yesterday? Nice job with yesterday's and today's workout. It's suppose to rain here too. Not looking forward.

That's it for me today. Have a great evening.
 
Hey ladies,

Had a doc appointment about my heal this morning. It's been bordering me for month. I think I mention it before that I think I had a heal spur. The pain in my left heal is getting worst. Got a shot last week in my right knee. I am falling apart.

We having really bad weather, at the moment we have Tornato warnings. About an hour ago we had quarter size hail. I thought it was going to break my windows. Brawler was so scared. I had to give him something to calm him down :(

I will be back tomorrow.
 
Happy Belated Mother's Day!

Yesterday the kids and DH went with me to CF. DD has gone a few times with us and loves it. First time for DS, and he hasn't been exercising at all, so it worked him good. Afterwards we went out to our favorite local pancake house for a late lunch. Loved having them home for the day.

Rest day today - like every Monday is for us.

Belinda - Your kids did Mother's day good for you. Sounds wonderful. So sorry your heal is getting worse. You aren't falling apart, but maybe just feeling a bit middle aged (that's what we're calling it around here - and yes, sometimes we are in denial). Poor Brawler. Since we brought dog #2 home, thunderstorms don't bother dog #1 anywhere near as much. maybe she just needed the canine companionship.

Out to look for a new mattress. Dh is convinced we need to look at foam. I'm along the lines of "if it ain't broke".

Enjoy the rest of your evening, and be back tomorrow.
 
Good morning.

STS M3 Week 3 D20 legs is done. I had to lower my weight a little, still got a great workout in.

Sherry - my knee and my heals are not middle age related. Both are from exercise injuries. My arthritis in my knees are both from excessive running/high impact. Not age related. My heal spur I been having from running and high impact. I don't have any middle age problems, but my knee and heal are from exercise. Hopefully you don't end up getting those injuries doing CF, but we all different.. I am also not in denial about my age, I do have my limitations. This is the reason, I stopped doing high impact workouts. My doc had a long talk with me about 2 years ago. Trust me, my knees will let me know :)


See you all tomorrow.
 
Happy Tuesday!

CF tonight - squat presses, pull-ups and push-ups. Finished with rows and sit-ups. So far no issues from high impact. I do scale the weights to my capability.

Belinda - It's ok to use whatever weight is working for you that day. Today I didn't press as much as I did a week ago. Less energy today, and that's ok. We do what we can, and we are quite capable.

Until tomorrow.
 
Good evening,

My DD is very sick (we think food poising) I am in DC since Monday night. Today I went to her gym, did the elliptical and TM for a while. I didn't get much sleep with DD.

Good job, everyone! BBL!
 
Good morning,

Thanks for the well wishes about Aleisa. She is doing a little better, at least she is keeping food down. I will stay in DC until tonight, my son and his wife invite me to an event that is tonight. Depending how late we get out, Aleisa and I will probably drive home tonight.

Yesterday I did STS D21 back/biceps plus a mile walk. Today I will some Kickboxing?

Sherry - some day's aren't it just doesn't happened. That's ok! Good job on your workout.

I will be back later.
