1hr of kickboxing yesterday and I am feeling it today! Such a good all rounder. Gets muscles I forget I have....

Worst of the work stress is over so I forced myself out for a short run this morning. If the weather holds up I'm going to go for a dip later. I'm following Oubliette back onto the wagon

I'm very jealous of your kick boxing sar. I used to do some boxing and I loved it.

Hope you're having a lovely time on your trip, Sophie.

Hello! Just catching up on all your exercise this week. Interesting variety!! Sorry to hear you're not feeling great oubliette and MotherForkin

Had a wonderful time at home and started my exercise today: epic 3 day 31 glutes and hamstrings giant sets. This was tough - my hamstrings were cramping at one point! Also a 10 min girvan abs workout.

Days exercised 222

I don’t have the coordination for kickboxing. I look like I am trying to fight my way out of a sleeping bag .

Welcome back Sophie! Glad you had a nice time at home.

Glad to hear you are back at it Motherforkin and Oublette.

Girvan 1 hour full body workout done ✅

Days exercised 189

Thank you Roonetta.

Epic 3 day 32 shoulders and arms supersets. This was tough and kept changing my weights to lower and lower 😆

Days exercised 223

Glad you had a nice trip, Sophie. It was a long wait so it's good to hear you enjoyed it.

5km walk this morning (slept really badly so couldn't make myself run any of it ).

Hello! I’m determined to exercise every day this week. Tonight I was tired, but managed to make myself exercise anyway. Ri30 L3D18 (30 min)

(183/67; 172h 35min)

Thank you MotherForkin. I hope you slept better last night.

Well done on getting your exercise done oubliette 👏🏻

Epic 3 day 33 for me - lower body trisets. Again it was tough - I should stop writing this as every epic 3 day seems tough now!!

Days exercised 224

6W6P L2D16 (35 min). Which I think is more cardio than abs. Whatever the description says. Still 2/2 days so far this week is good progress.

(184/66; 173h 10min)

17k steps. Still not sleeping well so no mojo to run, but I'm considering that much walking a win! And a legs squat/lunge complex. i won't be able to move tomorrow

5km run plus a girvan abs workout.

Days exercised 225

Short run (30m) this morning and squats/lunges thing.

Despite allegedly doing abs yesterday the only part of me that aches today are my shoulders

Haha that made me laugh Oubliette

I probably won't get much exercise in this week. My DH has the week off and is decorating the kitchen, which means he spreads himself into every area of the house. Not sure why, but I can never motivate myself to exercise when he is at home .

I'm back on it this week after an odd sort of half term which meant doing nothing (involving DH away, then unexpectedly WFH and me having a road trip in the middle. I also went down with a cold and that time of the month! At least it all came together )

Mon: circuits class
Tues: 7 mi walk. Substitute for long run due to cold and tired muscles.
Wed: back to open water swimming and a walk so I got some circulation back in my feet

3/3 days so far in November. KAbs L1D16 (30 mins)

(185/65; 174h 40min)

30 min run and squats/lunges today.

Oh I think I've had that* too with one of the 6W6P workouts oubliette*. Something else other than abs hurting me the next day 😆

Good luck with the decorating Roonetta!

Had a rest day today - not intended but had a meeting first thing and then exercise never happened! Tomorrow....!

This morning I did epic 3 day 34 (full body pyramid training).

Days exercised 226

I had a lot of course work catch up to do today so I didn't get much else done. I did manage a sea dip and a short dog walk so all was not lost.

Happy weekend everyone.

Is that marking course work or doing course work MotherForkin? Are you studying?

Epic 3 day 35 tabata HIIT today. As always so proud of myself when I finish one of her HIIT sessions.

Days exercised 227

Course I'm doing myself, Sophie. Actually two, one directly work related and one that's mainly for myself but will be useful for work.

Dh is away this weekend and I forgot how to manage weekend activity and match drop offs on my own! But got out early for a short run with the dog so he won't complain at being left home alone

Good luck with the courses MotherForkin
. Sympathise with all the running around for DCs too.

Epic 3 day 36 chest and triceps supersets.

Days exercised 228

Epic 3 day 3 unilateral lower body.

Days exercised 229

That should have been day 37 (not 3!). I also did a 5 min lilly sabri abs workout - picked a short one but it turned out to be quite challenging .....
