    I'm still just doing weight workouts. Did RWH Chest Tuesday, Lower body split from the LIS, and RWH Back on Thursday. Monday and Friday were rest days. I think I'm going to do an upper body today and a lower body tomorrow and then take Monday off again. I'm needing more rest. My week was...

    All good here. Did Beast bulk legs on Saturday and RWH B/S/B Sunday. Felt like I needed a rest day, so slept in a bit this morning. Having book club in person tonight, so spent a lot of the weekend cleaning and putting stuff away! It's the Dublin mystery I think I told you about. It's set in...

    I can understand your frustration. None of my pants that aren't stretch fit me anymore. I've been trying to not snack at all-drinking lots of water and tea between meals. Workout wise, I'm not even doing any cardio. I pulled out my body beast series and have been doing that for legs, rwh for...

    We made it. He had a complication of trapped air under his skin from when they pumped air into his abdomen for a better view of the area. The nurse there called it subcutaneous emphysema. So he had to have an extra hour of oxygen to help it dissipate from his chest. Other than that he feels...

    How is your week? DH found out Monday he's having surgery on his hernia next Thursday. It will be laparoscopic and involves mesh. That will give him a month to recover before our trip to Pittsburgh. I took today off completely for rest. I still got up early, just did some stretching and...

    Hi. I've been doing weight workouts, but getting up at 5 was not happening today. I slept in until 7. I've been doing an upper body then a lower body and just repeating with changing up the chest and back dvd. Legs have been Stacked Supersets and PLB the past few times. I'm good and sore...

    So glad you are getting lots of yoga in. Your job is so stressful. I used to think working from home was nice, but you are really putting in long days. I'm keeping up with the weights, but I'm not doing RWH legs any more-just the upper body ones. My back was starting to hurt around my SI...

    How was your week? I ended up doing Low Impact Lower Body on Wednesday after work-and only because I was able to flex off at 3 since I stayed until 7 on Monday night. Tuesday night was book club, so I did not work out-even though it was on Zoom. I need to spend some time with Dan! I have...

    Well my week went to hell. I got no workouts in and need to get motivated! Today is RWH Legs and tomorrow I'm going to do the 4 set premix for Chest and the 4 set for Back. It's getting harder and harder after work to find momentum to work out. It's too cold in the mornings and I'm tired at...

    Good article in the NYT about self acceptance of the waistline... Bottom line is it's normal! https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/11/well/move/belly-fat-women.html

    How was your week? I got in RWH C/S/T on Tuesday and B/S/B on Thursday. Monday was a really short walk after work and that's been it. I'm hoping to do a walk Sat and Sun along with Legs and Chest again, but it's really cold here. Maybe I'll go to the pool? I got my swim cap in the mail to...

    OMG! I started January yesterday with RWH B/S/B. Today was RWH Legs-I did low impact for the contrast training. My plan is a solid hour of weights every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. With the rests I take the RWH workouts end up being longer. I also did the 4 round premix...

    Hi! Happy New Year! We had a low key evening-I made some crab cakes and Dan built a fire and watched football. I have seen fires on TV in CO. So scary. The weather is causing so much damage-due to the humans, of course. Do you think that's the biggest news story of the year? I've been...

    I slept in until 8:30 both weekend days. I just did not want to get up! I'm sure I'll pay for it tonight when I try to get to sleep. How are you feeling? I'm just maintaining things right now. Taking it all one day at a time, working out 4x/week, and trying to intentionally have good days...

    I will probably have to retire before I would have the time available to do STS! I've done pieces of it on occastion-like the leg sections in STS 3 and a hypertrophy upper body; but do not have the mental and time committement available right now. I only did one week of Slow and Heavy and that...

    My week went by fast. Feels like all I do is work! I did get 3 workouts in during the week, was aiming for 4, but too tired by Friday. Today is my town's Dickens of a Christmas event-all day crafts, people dress up like Victorian's if they want, caroling, food, etc. I'm going to walk...

    Yum! A fresh juice/smoothie cleanse sounds like a great way to give your digestive system a rest. I basically gained two pounds over the holiday even though I ate one meal Thursday and one on Friday. DH got indigestion from the richness of some of the food. We're getting stuck in our ways, I...

    Getting ready to leave tomorrow morning for New Hampshire! Spent the weekend doing wash and cooking up some food for DS1 to have and making fresh cranberry relish for Thanksgiving. Glad to hear you are easing back into working out. If you are like most folks I have seen, you will continue...

    How is your week going? Saturday I ended up getting my Booster and then recovered from it on Sunday. I was so tired and achy and if it's anything like what you've been going through I'm glad you're vaccinated because it was awful and if you got covid without being vaccinated that would be 10X...
