Right. I need to get back on track! I’m so busy at work right now that I keep losing track of time. Which resulted in an unplanned rest day yesterday.

Just done KB&T L1D16 and 30DS L3D12 (65 min). Ugh - rockstars jumps!

Slept really badly night before last and couldn't face exercising so took a rest day yesterday.

Today a 7km fartlek run plus Caroline girvan abs workout. Feeling good that I managed to exercise today Smile

Days exercised 110

Nothing worse than a bad night's sleep Sophie. Glad you got your exercise in today Smile

Rest day for me yesterday as it was my 50th birthday. Lots of cake eaten with zero f*s given Grin. Think I am probably in the best shape of my life at the moment, thanks to Jillian, Caroline and you lovely ladies who keep me motivated every day! Age is just a number.

Epic 2 day 12, glute and hamstring.

Days exercised 93 (I think!)

roonetta · 13/05/2021 12:42

Oops, it should be 94 days exercised

OublietteBravo · 13/05/2021 19:46

30DS L1D13 and KB&T L1D17. Exercise seems to be the he one thing I’m not procrastinating about at the moment!

Happy birthday Roonetta! 🎂 hope you had a lovely day.

I got up for a run but was so tired I just couldn't make myself. I went for a 5km walk while dd was at football instead.

OublietteBravo · 13/05/2021 20:03

Happy birthday for yesterday @roonetta. I think that definitely deserves a rest day!

Happy birthday Roonetta!!! 🎂🎈🎉 And many happy returns of the day!!! 🥳🎊How lovely that you are in the best shape of your life 😊😊😊😊

5km interval run plus a very tough girvan twisted abs workout. Planning to resume epic heat on Monday - I've really missed it!!

Days exercised 111

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 14/05/2021 14:49

Run and swim this morning. Work has been so nuts this week I gave myself a couple of hours off. I was at 100% of my daily activity by noon (based on heart rate/exertion) and after walking school pick up I'm at 16.5k steps, with a Brownies scavenger hunt this evening 🤣

roonetta · 14/05/2021 16:40

Thanks for the birthday wishes 😊

Good to hear your shoulder is better Sophie and you can get back to CG.

Way to go on the steps Motheforkin! Let us know what the overall total was after the scavenger hunt.

Glad all is back to normal in the Bravo household Oubliette 😃

Epic 2 day 13, chest and triceps. Well my arms will be useless tomorrow, they are burning like mad. That was the hardest arm workout yet. Couldn’t even do one of the incline push ups at the end Blush

Days exercised 95

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 14/05/2021 21:19

22238, Roonetta and 200% of my activity goal... not moving off the couch again tonight. Wine Grin

roonetta · 14/05/2021 22:11

Get in! You deserve that wine Grin

roonetta · 15/05/2021 16:00

Epic 2 day 14 lower abs and quads. Another brutal one.

Days exercised 96

SophieLion · 16/05/2021 09:35

Epic heat day 22 upper body. My shoulder ( actually it's a muscle (or tendon maybe) in upper arm) was fine except for shoulder presses (did without weight on that arm) and push ups. Staple exercise today was push ups so did abs exercises every time that came up.

Days exercised 112

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 16/05/2021 11:55

I had a rest day yesterday. Hill run and sea swim today in glorious sunshine. Smile

Have you seen your osteo, Sophie? I hope it heals quickly.

SophieLion · 17/05/2021 07:46

No I didn't go to my Orthopaedic MotherForkin but my pathologist gave me some advice and it is much better - just no push ups! Seeing pathologist tomorrow so will discuss again with him. Thanks for asking 😊

Epic heat day 23 legs plus her twisted abs workout.

Days exercised 113

roonetta · 17/05/2021 11:38

Epic 2 day 15 full body workout done

Days exercised 97

OublietteBravo · 17/05/2021 20:15

I seem to be struggling with motivation at the moment. Finally managed to make myself exercise this evening after 3 rest days. KB&T L1D18 and 30DS L2D13 (65 min)

I am finding the slow move back to normality a challenge Oubliette. Life is suddenly become much busier with all the normal commitments and less time for exercise, which affects my motivation. Well done on getting back at it Star

Epic 2 day 15 HIIT workout. Lots of Jillian moves in this one; mountain climbers/plank tucks/high knees. Glad it's done.

Days exercised 98

SophieLion · 18/05/2021 14:58

Things are also getting back to normality here. Sports started this week and so I'm running around a lot more for the DCs. It's strange to be busier again after so long so I completely relate. I can only manage to exercise if do it straight after school run (hence rest day today as doctor appointment first thing). Well done for managing to do your workout Oubliette.

You're almost at 100 Roonetta!

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 18/05/2021 15:04

I'm the same Sophie, between work and all the activities being back with a bang, if I don't exercise first thing I'm just too exhausted by evening (as happened yesterday). So I managed a run this morning.

OublietteBravo · 18/05/2021 19:37

I don’t know what it is, but I’m finding motivation in short supply. I managed to persuade myself to do a cardio circuit this evening. BFBM (50 min)
