Getting us started for the week

 

Yesterday I did a 45-minute Peloton ride, a 20-minute row and 20 minutes of restorative yoga. The next couple of weeks are going to be a little busy for us between appointments and holiday events.

Diane Sue-Great job with LMR Barre Fusion, LMR Total Body, and the Anytime Restorative Yoga bonus.

Cathy-Great job with STS Disk 31 Chest and Back. I also learned to type on the electric typewriters in high school.

Valerie-Great job with the Park walk, therapy work and upper body. I’m sorry about the computer and other technical issues.

Carolyn-I hope you had a very nice rest day.

Shannon-Great job with LMR Total Body. I really like that one too, it might end up being my favorite workout from the series. I’ve been using foam rolling a lot with my PT and it does seem to help but it can be very unpleasant.

 

This morning I did the recent Live Cardio Core and Onto the Floor. I really liked that one. Then I did the Restorative Yoga again which I also really like. Put up the tree yesterday. First time I’ve done a tree by myself in a long time.

Judy great job with the Peloton workouts. I had typing in middle school, by the time the boys were in school it had moved down to elementary school and they were using some type of computers from kindergarten onward.

Valerie I’m glad you got your walk in before the rain and great job with the therapy and upper body work. I’m sure you’ll be happy to see the last of the Dell computers. I’m an Apple girl through and through and it’s been over 25 years since I’ve had to use any other kind of system.

Carolyn that’s really cool that your group has lasted 25 years.

Shannon great job with the LMR Total Body and LMR Yoga and the Lower Body Foam Rolling Bonus. I’m mixed on Foam Rolling. Certain areas like sore quads I find it really helpful for, but other areas not so much. I really like the Restorative Yoga, long poses and lots of deep breathing. I’m thinking I’ll do a couple weeks of the rotation for the new workouts when Nick’s home with the cardio added in, and then I want to do a combo of STS 2 and the new workouts. I’ll have to figure that out on my own. Was hoping it would be one of the rotation options for the new workouts, none of the ones using other series really appeal to me.

Hi Diane Sue enjoy your day.

 

we thought we would walk this morning but no enthusiasm today so we are painting the bathroom instead. always takes more time than you think it will. otherwise its ready for the plumber who is next. dont have a date yet but probably before xmas.

we are having second thoughts about the kitty. wow, he is friendly and in our faces all the time. we’ve had several cats before and it was a smoother process. he is “returnable” to the shelter we got him but we would feel bad about doing it. he is extremely friendly and underfoot every second. he’s 1.5 yrs old so pretty young but our last cat was 2 and a lot more mellow, very soon. all were indoor/outdoor cats but with this one we were hoping to be indoor only. its like he needs another kitty to play with but we didnt want two 2 cats. if anyone has any thoughts, i’m open to them. its not as if he’s mean or nasty but actually too friendly. on your lap and kneading and snuggling constantly.

cathy we both like apple products a lot and use apple phones and laptop. desktops weve never switched over. dh bought a mac a few yrs ago to do photos mainly but its hard to make the switch if you used windows products for decades. . his current desktop is worse by the day so that decision will get made for us. its up to him if he wants to use it or get another relatively inexpensive windows system.

 

Good morning. Today I did my regular yoga/mobility for 18 minutes.

Shannon, nice job with LMR Total Body, Yoga, and Lower Body foam rolling.

Judy, great job with your 45 minute Peloton ride, 20 minute row, and 20 minutes of restorative yoga.

Cathy, great job with Live Cardio Core and Onto the Floor and Restorative Yoga. Putting up a Christmas tree alone can be hard if you need to do lights. Our trees have lights which makes it a bit easier. Once the tree is up I enjoy arranging the ornaments.

Hello to Valerie and Diane Sue.
