Hope I haven’t forgotten anyone. First time creating a thread so hope it works!

RI30 L4D2 done. DD whinged slightly less than on Monday, and now I’ve only got to flog her through it once more.

Days exercised 25.

Gold stars for you and your DD Professor 🌟 🌟 - I’m well impressed that your DD has kept going 👏👏👏

Epic day 17 leg workout with dumbbells - pretty much 45 minutes of lunges. My knees will hate me tomorrow.

Days exercised 45

Epic day 18 chest and triceps done ☑️

Days exercised 46

Day 70 of BR here - had to miss a few over last weekend due to fence painting mission while the sun was out - then this week 4x12 hour shifts back to back has depleted my energy levels somewhat but I'm back in the game.

Starting the last 2 weeks.....

So impressed with you, @roonetta! I can’t imagine doing Epic. The gold stars should definitely be yours.

RI30 L4D3 done, and I’m going to stop it there as DD goes back to school on Monday (thank heaven). I’m going to give myself a couple of weeks of relative slack and do some Adriene and maybe one of Jillian’s yoga DVDs before I plunge into anything else.

Day 71 of BR - my first workout of weeks 11-12 that was tough!!

Painting a fence is definitely considered a workout in my book Algonquin as are 12 hour shifts! I remember thinking workout 11 was the hardest of all the workouts, but you are on the home straight and that feels great

Thanks Professor . I am really enjoying Epic, apart from the HIIT workouts which are ridiculously hard. Thought my DC were back on Monday but now they have to have COVID tests before going back so DS is back on Wednesday and DD on Friday for 1 day 🙄. Part of me is happy they are going back but part of me knows my DS’s anxiety will start up again once he goes back. Hopefully this time at home has shown him that being in school isn’t all bad.

Anyway after all that waffle, it is actually a rest day for me so no exercising to report 😃

Sneaking back into the thread after an injury recovery break. Focused on running instead, but back on classic 30DS, up to L1D5

Looking forward to seeing how everyone is doing, a quick scan looks super awesome! You fit people !!!!

Nice to see you again, @CalmConfident! Hope you’re fully recovered.

I’m on yoga with Adriene this week, which I don’t think really counts as exercise.

Fingers crossed for your DS, @roonetta.

Ah roonetta I hope your DS is okay next week - it's awful when you're worried about your kids. Fingers crossed it goes well.

Welcome back calmconfident I have been doing a bit of running too. Did 3 miles this morning and a load of gardening so no Jillian today but day 71 beckons tomorrow!

Great to see you back @CalmConfident

Thanks for the kind thoughts about my DS everyone. Fingers crossed he will be okay.

I’m embarrassed to say I have had three rest days . In my defence we have been laying a floor all weekend so no time or energy for a 1 hour full body workout. Back at it tomorrow.

Epic day 19 full body dumbbell workout done. That really does take it out of me.

Days exercised 47

Now 3 rest days does actually sound epic I must say roonetta ** -
laying a floor, less so!

Day 73 of BR here - nearly there!! Although some of the week 11-12 exercises I swear are actually impossible!!

30DS L1 D7 done ✅

Will be establishing a new routine as the school run returns yet WFH continues ! I think it will mean getting up earlier

I’m not looking forward to the earlier mornings either Calm. I am quite looking forward to a bit of time to myself though .

Epic day 20 dumbbell HIIT done

Days exercised 48

Epic day 21 leg workout dumbbell complex. That was HARD!

Days exercised 49

Day 74 of BR today (yesterday was a "rest day" aka a 3 mile run and more fence painting!). Workout 1 of week 11/12 is a killer though. One circuit has bear walks, dive bombers and crab kicks and it is a killer.

Took DS1 for his school COVID test today (which was negative) so it's all go for his return to school on Friday. DS2 has been in all week, so Friday will be v strange in a good way!

Day 75 of BR today - actually managed a few of those wheel push ups, my shoulders will pay for that tomorrow though!! Only ten more workouts to go

Wow super impressed with the wheel push ups Algonquin! I can’t even get into bridge 😂. You’re nearly done, any idea what’s next?

Rest day for me today.

Only one day of 30DS L1 to go...then the evil
lateral lunges are gone! I am so stiff though - the stretches at the end, I am as flexible as a plank of wood

Level 2 was always my favourite Calm. Hated those lateral lunges.

Epic day 22 shoulders and core done.

Days exercised 50

Epic day 23 abs and glutes done.

Days exercised 51

Days 78,79 and 80 of BR done over the last two days - nearly there, just 3 more workouts to go

30 DS L2 D1 done ✅

That was great, the fun middle cardio section made up for the evil plank jacks
