Well I didn't throw up
I got a PB on it which you're supposed to do, and now I can use the power zones programme to hopefully keep improving my fitness and then you retest

Didn't manage any exercise over the weekend. Today a 5km run and then iron series day 5 (arms, abs and core).

Days exercised 71

Yoga Meltdown L2 done. We’ve finally got the cottage warm!

Well done MrO. Looking good! Not throwing up is an achievement in itself.

Days exercised 57.

Sophie, impressed that you’ve done more than 70 days already!

Ride 25 done! Next milestone is 50 but 100 is the big one

Thanks professor. I feel like I've been a bit stop and start this year what with everything that's happened but clearly the exercise days are all counting. I'll be having another week off soon as we're away.

A cottage in the countryside sounds wonderful. Enjoy!

That's serious cycling Ollivander. Quite impressive how quickly you have progressed.

Today the Iron series day 3 (glutes) plus a 10 min girvan abs and core workout for me.

Days exercised 72

Yoga Meltdown L2 done again. This one seems to be good for my sore hip - though it does have wheel push-ups at the end, I don’t think I will ever be able to do those.

It rained all morning, so I did some work as well as some Jillian. I have terrible boundaries.

Well done on getting to 25 MrO! It’s not that long since you started.

Days exercised 58.

A 5km run and day 7 of the iron series (shoulders and triceps).

Days exercised 73

YM L2 done. Driving back tomorrow so no exercise till Friday.

Days exercised 59.

I’m back. No exercise yesterday, I was a bit hung over after dinner with my sister and didn’t have the energy for Jillian when we got back to London- especially once we’d retrieved the cat from the cattery and sorted some basic food shopping.

RI30 L3D5 done. In principle I ought to greet Easter Sunday by starting Bodyshred. Ugh.

Days exercised 60.

After a disaster of a week I'm back, with my old name to inspire me (my head was definitely in the sand as an ostrich )

I walked 20k steps yesterday on a family day out, so I'm counting that. I had a brisk hill walk with a friend earlier and I'm going to do a low impact stretch/barre workout in a bit.

Hope everyone is enjoying the Easter break.

Days exercised 43

Back from hols yesterday. Did loads of eating but also lots of walking so I don't feel too guilty. Spent most of today doing housework but hoping to get back to it soon. Thinking of trying the new Girvan programme. How are you finding it Sophie?

Still going! I'm doing some power zones rides which are basically progressive overload. I finish sweating but not wiped and it seems to be helping my fitness

Did day 2 of the Iron series upper body (didn't fancy day 1 leg day!)

Days exercised 53

I dragged the overly chocolated family up a hill this afternoon. They are not impressed with me

Happy Easter!

I skived yesterday having used up all my willpower attending the dawn Easter service and driven to MIL’s. Bodyshred week 1 workout 1 done today. Three kinds of push-ups and it’s only going to get worse.

Days exercised 61.

Well done getting the family out walking Motherforkin 🙌. Mine were complaining walking along a beautiful coastline last week!

Good luck with Bodyshred Professor.

Well done with all your PBS MrO

Forgot to say Happy Easter yesterday, hope you all had a good day

3 mile WWL done

Days exercised 54

Yes, MotherForkin, you’re a better woman than I am!

Bodyshred week 1 workout 2 done. I’m too uncoordinated for the more advanced Jillian workouts, half the time I’m falling over my own feet. Planned rest day tomorrow as it’s the first ‘real’ school day: DD is in today but has a late start.

Days exercised 62.

Iron series shoulders and triceps done. I am enjoying the shorter workouts. I used lighter weights for this as my arm is still playing up a bit, but felt like I got a better burn

Days exercised 55

First 45 min ride underway... I'm roasting already!

Sounds like you've all been busy - exercising and eating

I'm away with the DCs (also a lot of eating here too!) but weather has been fairly rubbish and I -Greek like. We've been out most of the day so booked myself into the small gym later for a run. It's looks like I will be totally bored but feeling very sluggish after doing nothing (apart from some walking) for so many days. Will report back afterwards.....

Done. Complete with hives! I am so itchy now

Oh I hope the hives go down soon Ollivander. Not a nice way to end an exercise session....

7km run plus an 8 min lilly sabri abs workout for me.

Days exercised 73

Just posted abs think it got lost....
so sorry about the hives Ollivander.

7km run plus lilly sabri abs.
