It is very nearly 2018, so here is a thread to track your exercise goals.

It doesn't matter if you are new to exercise, or merely continuing your current regime. Everyone is welcome!

There is new 2018 JM Cardio DVD on Amazon. May try it for variety but doesn't sound like it will be challenging, based on the reviews Confused.
Still 12,000+ steps and KBFF every day this week so far here.

6W6P L1
Legs were still sore from interval run yesterday so fancied something with a bit more lying down Grin

I did that DVD once on YouTube Blody. Doesn't she give some odd explanation at the start as to why they're wearing sunglasses? Something like "we didn't realise it would be so sunny in the desert"!!?Grin

40 min KBFF and 12000+ steps each day this week so far. Arms surprisingly OK Grin.
Hope you're palms are better Sophie.
I have many DVDs too Oub but tend to stick to favourites. There is a JM Yoga Meltdown one which was filmed outdoors in the desert, when they are all wearing dark glasses Hmm, which simply creases me up so I cannot follow it. Others, such as 7 day Shred, are just too hard!

You have my sympathy Sophie - planks are hard even if you haven't hurt your plams.

That sounds unpleasant Sophie - glad you are OK.

I had a rest day yesterday (kids to PGL), and I've just done NMTZ

1.5km run. Obviously intended to do more but tripped and fell. Hurt my hands and knee but ok. Bit of a shock. Sad

I'm not keen on Killer Abs - level 1 makes my lower back hurt no matter how careful I am with technique, so I tend to avoid it. I'm not sure I've ever tried L2 or L3.

Just a short session this evening: 6W6P L2

Hello Blody 👋

Oubliette - I also have 30DS and Ripped in 30. Not overly keen on either of them to be honest. Not sure why Hmm Might have even given 30DS away! Do you like Killer Abs? I read lots of reviews a while ago and I think people said it's not as good as 6W6P. I'm glad you got me into that DVD by the way - I really like it. Thank you Smile

I did 30DS L1 and L2 for a change. It was hard work - I'm definitely ready for a shower!

I'm not really sure which other DVDs I have. I think I've got KBFF, Killer Abs, Ripped in 30, and... probably some other ones too. I really should have a look.

Easter hols has meant DIY and a change to the usual daily routine. I have managed 12,000+ steps per day since Good Friday but have not done any JM or weight training. I will see how I feel about BFBM or KBFF tomorrow... Whenever I re-start the JM workouts my arms will know it Blush.

One hour dance.

What other DVDs do you own Oub? I personally need to mix things up a lot to stay motivated (although I definitely have my favourites).

It's a shame there are so few of us on this thread. I remember there were lots of people involved when you started your old thread(s). I wonder what happened to them all.....Easter Hmm

BFBM about 5 hours ago - been on the road ever since

Probably a couple of rest days - I'm visiting family.
