Goodness, definitely a conspiracy this morningGrin

Better, well done on completing shred!

Stunt, that sounds very energetic for early morning, well done.

Kick, what do you think of SIWW?

BetterWithCheese · 01/06/2014 12:22

Oh and my son was also up at 5.30, except it was so bright I thought it was 7. Maybe they all did too?

BetterWithCheese · 01/06/2014 12:19

I finished the 30DS today despite the efforts of my children who seemed determined to stop me from completing my last one. I think I'm going to have to get up first thing and workout in the future as the baby isn't sleeping for long enough mid-morning any more.

StuntNun · 01/06/2014 12:16

My DS3 was up at that time too! Definitely a conspiracy. Fortunately DH got up with him and I got a lie in until 7:30. Luxury!

Ri30 L1D1 done and kettlebells core workout. Pilates starts again tomorrow after ages off due to bank holidays, Easter and teacher training days so I expect it will be brutal. I'm hoping to do BH kettlebells tomorrow too glutton for punishment that I am.

Well done okey Grin

Oohdaddy, you're doing really well to be doing any exercise while you're pregnant, as I remember the first trimester is exhausting.....hope you're keeping well.

I had a rubbish nights sleep....dp was on a night shift and I never sleep so well when he's not there. My ds decided it was a good idea to get up at 5.45!!!! Really should have exercised then but I opted for sorting the garden rubbish I cleared up yesterday and loading it into the car for the tip. I will try and fit something in later today, want to do BH ripped core all the way through.

Evening everyone. You are still inspiring me with your chat. I am still reading...

Managed only 2/3 of RI30L1 tonight. Even JM shouting "get up" couldn't shift my leaden backside :)

stunt impressive plan. I think if the equipment is right in front of you it's harder to ignore :)

OkyDoke · 31/05/2014 22:18

Well done everyone! Didnt manage 30ds yesterday or today bur have been for a forty minute power walk/jog soim happy witb that! Will do 30ds tomorrow!

spinningirl10 · 31/05/2014 18:17

Sounds great StuntGrin

I've just done NMTZ.

BetterWithCheese · 31/05/2014 16:19

Sounds like a great plan StuntNun. I think I'll probably join a gym again when I go back to work after mat leave and have another go at it.

StuntNun · 31/05/2014 15:23

It does sound brilliant Better. DH and I are hoping to get a home gym set up in the garage but it'll be a while before we can afford it. After two c sections my tummy is in a bit of a desperate state and I reckon it's going to take pretty intensive exercise to do much about it. I'm hoping to build up my strength and fitness with JM-type compound exercises then start weight training again in earnest once my youngest DC is going to bed more easily in the evenings.

BetterWithCheese · 31/05/2014 14:52

StuntNun I did the New Rules of Lifting for Women (the lift like a man book) before my wedding 5 years ago, it was brilliant and I loved it but I was a member of a gym then so they had all the equipment. I think I did 3 weights sessions and 3 HIIT sessions a week, I was the fittest I'd ever been. I didn't actually finish the whole program though.

Let us know what the BH dvd is like Stunt I hovered between that and SIWW. That was nice of your DH Smile

StuntNun · 31/05/2014 11:01

I bought myself a BH kettlebell DVD and my DH has just presented me with Ri30 so it looks like my training is going up a notch! I've also been reading Lift Like a Man Look Like a Goddess for stage 4 of my master plan but I'll need to save up for some fitness equipment before that currently stony broke so it might be a while.

Morning Grin

I'm going to try and fit something in later today. Got some boxes that need unpacking/sorting and some gardening to do first! I'm feeling the effects of Bobs cardio in my legs, middle and bum today....must be workingGrin

spinningirl10 · 30/05/2014 16:47

Knotty Grin well done oke and spinning Smile had bootcamp in the park last night and we managed 100 reps each of 6 exercises so that was good, my lower back is playing up at the moment so planning to do BFBM as it has no weights

OP posts:
OkyDoke · 30/05/2014 08:32

Managed Day 2 yesterday! Now to squeeze in Day 3 this evening!

spinningirl10 · 30/05/2014 08:30

Morning Grin

Enjoy the shard Knotty, I went last year and loved it.

I've just done BH cardio conditioning!!!!! Omg I nearly gave up 21 mins in, it's hard work but I got to the end, yay Grin really think I'll feel it tomorrow......I only liked the on screen timer when it was showing 10mins left, and even then I was wondering how long till the warm up! Great work out, very sweaty!

knottyhair · 30/05/2014 05:42

Morning! Glad Bob is going down so well. That sounded better in my head.
About to tackle Shred L3... Day off tomorrow as DP is taking us up the Shard. That also sounded better in my head.
