Busy hungover day yesterday so didn't get to exercise. Started with a short legs and core hiit this morning so I don't have time to bail on it!

Well done Motherforkin! I bet the hangover was worth it

After a rubbish few days which included work Christmas party (not rubbish), sickness (DH) and vaccine tiredness (DC) in the house, I have started Caroline Girvan’s 20 minute programme which was a shoulder workout. Tougher than I thought 20 minutes would be. Arms are shaking! Hoping to get exercise in every day now up until Christmas. As it’s only 20 minutes I shouldn’t have any excuse

Days exercised 201

Hello! I had family visiting so had quite a few rest days.
Today did no repeat week day 1 (quads and abs/core). The 20 mins of quads felt like 20 hours

Days exercised 248

Ps wonder where oubliette is?

Hope you had a lovely few days with your family Sophie. You definitely deserved those rest days!

I wonder if Oubliette is busy and forgetting to post

Girvan 20 minute abs and core. Not my favourite but got it done.

Days exercised 202

Oops. I keep forgetting to record what I've done (I’m being quite successful at spending less time online):
Wednesday: KAbs L2D17 & Ri30 L4D14 (60 min)
Thursday: KAbs L3D17 & Ri30 L4D15 (60 min)
Monday: Ri30 L4D16 & 6W6P L1D18 (65 min)
Today: BFBM (50 min)

(199/51; 183h 45min)

I definitely won't make it to 250 days of exercise this year, but I might still make it to 200 hours.

I’ve also managed to do 15,000 steps every day of December so far.

That's a lot of exercise oubliette! Good luck for the 200 hours 🍀

Was going to run today but got a bit of a cold and didn't feel like it. Instead did two of girvan's Christmas workouts: arms and shoulders and then superset back.

Days exercised 249

Great to see you are back to your double workouts Oubliette!

Hope your cold doesn't hang around too long Sophie. You are almost at 250!

Girvan 20 minute full body workout. Phew, that was tough

Days exercised 203

Still feeling cold-y so not up to running. Did two Christmas workouts: glutes and lower abs. The 20 mins workouts are intense (although the abs one was 15 mins "only").

Days exercised 250

250! Wow, well done Sophie! 👏🏅 Hope you're feeling better soon.

We were housebound for two days with Storm Barra (and back to the horror of home schooling) so I didn't get anything done. Lovely and calm this morning so I got out for a short run first thing.

Thank you MotherForkin! I'm really not sure how I managed to do 280 days last year ..... plus I actually feel stronger and in better shape now.

Oh no you had to go back to homeschooling ..... I take it they are back at school now if things were calm this morning?!Did you have any damage from the storm?

Well done @SophieLion - 250 days is amazing!

Yesterday I did 6W6P L2D18 & Ri30 L4D17 (65 min)

(200/50; 184h 50min)

Thanks *oubliette.

Today, day 10 of the advent calendar (full body) plus 20 mins of yoga - I need to start doing more yoga again as I was very stiff. Hope to get a run in over the weekend.

Days exercised 251

Well done Sophie! Over 250! . A fantastic achievement.

Glad the storm has passed Motherforkin. The thought of homeschooling again gives me hives! Glad it was only for a couple of days.

Girvan 20 minute glutes.

Days exercised 204

I had a rest day yesterday (but still managed 15,000 steps).

Tonight I did Ri30 L4D18 (30 min)

(201/49; 185h 20min)

Rest day yesterday and today a 5km interval run plus a cat Meffan deep and stretchy yoga flow.

Days exercised 252

Day 11 of the days of Christmas (15 mins glutes but pretty intense) plus biceps workout from the no repeat week.

Days exercised 253

Well done getting to 200 *Oubliette! 🏅

I'm not sure what I've been doing since Friday, but I was too busy to do any actual exercise I managed 15k - 20k steps each day though. And I got a bracing dip in early this morning as I'm working late tonight and won't manage anything else.

Whoop 200 Oubliette! Great step count on your rest day too!

Impressive step count as well Motherforkin! You should get a medal for braving a sea dip at the moment.

Well done on your dedication Sophie. I don’t think you’ve stopped at all this year.

Couple of rest days and Girvan 20 minute cardio today. Felt a bit sick during this one. My cardio fitness has dropped dramatically!

Days exercised 205

I’m not quite sure where my weekend went either @MotherForkinShirtBalls.

Just done Ri30 L4D19 and KAbs L1D18 (60 min).

(202/48; 186h 20min)

Girvan 20 minute superset back workout.

Days exercised 206

Well done on the 200 oubliette!! 🎉🎉** sorry I must have missed that before.

5km interval run today plus a short abs workout.

Days exercised 254

I'm quite proud of myself for exercising even though I'd just had my covid booster. Ri30 L4D20 & KAbs L2D18 (60 min). I think my motivation is finally back!

(203/47; 187h 20min)

Well done oubliette 👏🏻👏🏻** glad to hear the motivation is back. Good you didn't feel too bad after your booster. I have mine next week.

Did today's days of Christmas workout (body weight lower body giant sets) and yesterday's (upper body complexes).

Days exercised 255

I have my booster tomorrow. Hope I feel okay after

Did Girvan 20 minute leg workout today. Not a fan of this one, just RDLs and squats.

Days exercised 207

So little mojo at the moment...tomorrow will be better. Hope everyone is OK after boosters.
