Today is a rest day as all of my thigh muscles are yelling at me; my calves are only speaking! I expected this to happen as I’ve only been doing these for about two weeks now. As I am still, since September 9th, fighting a virus I was so tired that I had to take a nap! Here’s hoping that tomorrow is better! I WILL be back to exercising.
Legs✅️ Chest n Back tomorrow💪
3 x dog walks today in the very late Summer sunshine, heading quickly into Autumn and the nights are pulling in. Our clocks go back 1 hour soon😔, so it'll be dark dog walking!
Feeling grateful today for my health and vigour. It's easy to pick out all the negatives. Our minds find that so much more accessible it seems!!! My sight, hearing, senses of smell and taste, touch and all my limbs working......Thanks Lord🙏🙏🧡
I am struggling with drinking Celsius energy drinks. I drink one a day in the morning when I wake up and I feel like it wakes me up. I know it has the fake sugar and synthetic ingredients. I am trying to cut this but it’s difficult. I tried drinking coffee. The problem with coffee is I don’t like it bitter. I have to dump creamer in it so it tastes good. What is a substitute I can do for the caffeine? Or how do you sugest coming off of it? Are caffeine pills considered a substitute? Have you had lots of clients with this issue?
Soooo Bi's n Tri's yesterday.
Fresh start tomorrow with Legs.
Today was moving back into home with the normal 2 dog walks.
Did several sets of 15 x walking lunges across the paths on the fields alternated with sets of 100 step backwards walking. My dog thinks I'm crazy🤣🤣....whatever works!!!🤷♂️🤷♂️. My quads enjoyed it💪🌟🌟
I did the fiery five advanced and chest and back PTS basic 1. I also lifted, moved and stacked a LOT of logs both small and large for about 2-1/2 hours!
Joey A. This is amazing, I finally left my need for my laborious visual gym log and realized the calendar actually plays all the videos, I thought it was just a list, it does the work for you! Then I immediately put notes down under video awesome. Thankyou Joey :) Well I'm starting late on the tracking of it all. I can't go back and put in all I did now.
Moving on: So, Wed I only did chest/back 1x, Thurs I did arms only x, The Rhomboid major another compromised area from past, has been deeper ache since I worked it and I only used 2 lbs when you lifted the bottle in video. It didn't hurt like this doing your videos ever but perhaps sleeping on it triggered it along with shoulder area .
Shoulders and Abs/core ✅️
We leave for home tomorrow after 3 weeks, so a day of packing, driving and unpacking.
Got a lot of plans in the pipeline for training and work orientation. Hope to get a session in tomorrow but let's see! 💪💪🌟🌟🙌
I just did the LIIT abs and core intermediate session 2. I do not have the equipment shown so I used a five pound weight, instead of the bench I used a countertop and a couch! It’s interesting to see how I can make the exercises work with what I have at home. I got a good workout!
Yesterday I worked my leg combination of exercises from the videos that I've saved. It's a pretty testing session, repeating each of the 8, 3 x through.
I've been looking at what's available in advanced now and planning ahead, although I know where I can add weight and/or more band strength for now.
Today will be shoulders and I shall mix in an Ab session to finish.
The exercises and frequency are pretty much committed to memory now but I also keep a log for notes or adjustments of weight etc.
Accountability (for me) is key, it adds to my commitment and discipline. If I can see a historical record in whatever format it spurs me onward. It highlights that I'm worthy of my own attention for something POSITIVE. It's so easy to shelve our own needs I find!
How do you stay accountable? What do you put in place to show up?
