Those V raises are my least favourite move in 30 DS!

Last week didn’t go very well - I was travelling on business and exercise pretty much went out the window.

I’m determined to do better this week. Today I managed both Ri30 L3D7 and parents evening.

and parents evening?? heavy lifting indeed...

i had an unplanned day off yesterday (sore knees/hips and a hangover! ) so now feeling under pressure to get the last 2 days of level 2 done but I'm losing my mojo. although to be fair the v raises are getting easier - the muscles in my arms are buried under more flab than the ones in my legs though so much less visible!

L1 day 12 6 wk 6 pk yesterday and L2 day 12 just now.

Parents evening was a doddle for me this year. 15yr old DC only managed to obtain one appointment
I do admire the staff who are there all night.

L3 D4 completed this morning. Feel like the end is in sight!

Ri30 L4D3

my other bloody calf has gone on me so i shall need to abandon you for a while... think it's partly the cold snap that has brought it on!

Oh no @Strumundcalm, I hope it heals up soon.

I’m still plodding my way with through Ri30: L4D4 this evening.

L3D5.
Hope you heal up quick Sturm

Sorry to hear that sturm. Take it easy.

D13 L1 yesterday and Day 13 L2 planned tomorrow. It was supposed to be today but I overslept.

Quite a lot of us are nearing the end of our challenges! I should finish next week if all goes to plan.
Has anyone got any ideas for what they will do afterwards? I'm going to wait until 2019 for my next challenge and just mix up the various DVDs I have a few times a week in December.

I’m undecided but thinking of focussing on yoga/flexibility until Christmas and then repeating the beginner shred with heavier weights

L3d6

Ri30 L4D5. Almost there...

I think my 2019 challenge will be to do some exercise (at least 30 min) on 250 days. I’ve managed this in the past.

(I did once do 300 days in a year - never again!)

Ooh a year long challenge! Not sure I'm ready for that yet. 250 days. That's 5 days a week except with a couple of weeks off!

I like the idea of working on flexibility before in December. I can do that any time of day because I don't need a shower afterwards and it is relaxing rather than energising so before bedtime also an option.

L1 D14 for me today. 3 days left....

Ignore the random 'before which snuck in.

I did 6W6P L2 this morning. It always seems to be quite cardio heavy for an abs routine.

Yes, now I am used to the moves, I don't find it any harder than L1. They both have mountain climbers towards the end and my abs hurt way more with L1 than with L2.

L2 day 14 of 6 week 6 pack.

I hate mountain climbers.
L3D7

L1 D15 done!
Any Starlight Express fans? I have 'There's a light at the end of the tunnel' going round in my brain....

L2 D15 done. Hurrah!
6 week 6 pack finished.
Think I will rest tomorrow and Shred on Friday to see if I have any arm strength left.

Monday: 6W6P L2
Tuesday: Ri30 L4D6
Today: 6W6P L1&L2 (ouch - I can really feel my abs)

L1 & L2 !!

It seemed like a good idea at the time...
