I might give Epic Heat a go after this one then Sophie. I think I would definitely prefer some shorter workouts. I kept getting interrupted during today's workout and it seemed to take forever! Have you noticed your body changing with Heat? I started off noticing a real difference quite quickly, but now it has stagnated Hmm. Well done on over 130 days exercised!! Star

Epic 2 day 28 - squats, squats and more squats! Went on forever!

I must have toned up more Roonetta but not sure. My back looks more toned. But I've got a cold and eating like a pig these days (colds always make me super hungry) so it's hard to tell!!!

Sorry oubliette: that should have read "had a lovely time" not "gas a lovely time" Confused

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 09/06/2021 19:26

Agh, I'm have a mojo free month and no motivation at all. Overwhelming packing procrastination isn't helping either. I'm posting so I have to do some sort of leg work out in the morning! (And I must have your cold too, Sophie, I can't stop eating either Hmm)

OublietteBravo · 09/06/2021 19:59

Oops. I forgot to post yesterday. But I promise I did exercise.

Yesterday: 30DS L3D15 and KB&T L2D15 (70 min)

Couldn't face all legs so I did a half hour hiit varying legs, cardio and core. Feel better for doing it, which I must remind myself when I don't want to go for a run in the morning.

roonetta · 10/06/2021 14:14

Sophie’s cold must be doing the rounds. My appetite is huge at the moment Grin

I believe you Oubliette, your dedication is never in doubt StarStar

Well done on making yourself do the workout Motherforkin - that’s me every day haha!! It’s true that you always feel better afterwards.

Epic 2 day 29 upper body complexes. The workouts are definitely getting tougher. This one killed me Blush

Days exercised 111

SophieLion · 10/06/2021 18:53

Oh yes the best part of a run is when you've finished 😆😆😆

Epic heat day 34 full body pyramid sets (was supposed to run today but didn't feel up to it with this cold).

Days exercised 132

OublietteBravo · 10/06/2021 20:52

I was so tempted to have a day off. So I’m pretty proud of myself for doing a tough combination of workouts. KB&T L2D17 and 30DS L2D16 (70 min)

Run this morning. My calves are very tight after yesterday's hiit!

OublietteBravo · 11/06/2021 20:03

Cardio to finish the week. BFBM (50 min). And now I’m going to have a glass of wine to celebrate the fact that it is the weekend. Wine

A hot and sweaty 5km run by the sea yesterday. We're on an island for the weekend. It's been ages since I've run outside.

Days exercised 133

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 12/06/2021 23:02

Oh an island sounds amazing Sophie! Hope you're having fun.

I spent the day cleaning and sorting and packing boxes. I didn't have time for a run but I managed an evening dip in the sea. I haven't been in about two weeks and it was like a balm to my soul.

roonetta · 13/06/2021 14:58

Hope you enjoyed your wine Oubliette

Envy of the island Sophie. Enjoy yourself Smile

Glad you managed a swim Motherforkin.

Epic 2 day 30 full body isometric workout. Nice slow one which was welcomed in this heat. Dropped to my 5kgs too.

roonetta · 14/06/2021 12:37

Epic 2 day 31 - HIIT, urghhh. I really phoned this in today. I was too hot and it was too hard so I slowed the pace right down. However, for someone who used to struggle with burpees, I managed to do over 50 in this workout (not all at once, but every fourth exercise was burpees, so 5 sets of 10) grin

SophieLion · 14/06/2021 19:45

Yes she does like her burpees Roonetta. Did heat day 35 today HIIT. lots of burpees there too.

Days exercised 134

OublietteBravo · 14/06/2021 21:24

Not feeling inspired tonight. Probably due to sleeping so badly last night - in combination with the heat. So just a short session. KB&T L2D18 (40 min)

(118/132; 130h 50min)

Epic heat day 36 (shoulders) and a lilly sabri abs workout.

Days exercised 135

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 15/06/2021 13:25

Two unplanned rest days between box packing and work although I took the dc swimming on Sunday and we had a great time mucking about.

Got out early for a run and managed nearly 6km which was further than usual. Planning a 4 mille (6.5km I think?) on Sunday so good to be closer to that than I expected.

roonetta · 15/06/2021 14:41

Epic 2 day 32 - death by lunges

Lovely workout with Bulgarian lunges, elevated lunges, dead stop lunges etc.etc combined with 10 minutes of calf raises and pulses. My calves were on fire. Not one of my favourites but I got through it. No doubt I will struggle to walk tomorrow.

Days exercised 114

OublietteBravo · 16/06/2021 08:18

Oops - I completely forgot to post yesterday! I did 30DS L3D16 and L2D17 (55 min). Not quite as many lunges as @roonetta though (just jumping lunges, static lunges, and pendulum lunges).

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 16/06/2021 22:19

Oh my god, so many boxes to pack leaves no time or motivation for exercise. I'm signed up for a 4 mile run on Sunday but I doubt I'll get anything done before then.

SophieLion · 17/06/2021 07:15

Heat day 37 (legs) yesterday and today heat day 38 (arms) plus an abs workout.
