That's really great lifting @MotherForkinShirtBalls

I've managed to gym it twice this week, taking me to 113.

Very impressive MotherForkinShirtBalls!
Had a lovely day with friends at a "Good Vibrations" event. Did some belly dancing and bollywood.

Ah thanks 😊 I got to 50kg for 6 reps on my squat today. Going to aim for 70kg by the end of the year. I'm feeling very unmotivated so I need a challenge.

BodyCombat on Sunday, gym Monday and Tuesday

Epic fail here. Work is crazy again (I lost all day Saturday to work) and my sister was visiting for a couple of days. Posting in the hope that it will force me to do something later today.

I’m very impressed with the lift, MotherForkin! I can still lift DD (who is 40 kg, more or less), but don’t think I could do 50kg.

Renovating our living room at the moment which is where I do my exercise, so haven’t managed any for a while. Still getting exercise in though, with the decorating and ripping up and replacing the flooring. Hope to be back at it soon. I see everyone is doing great! ❤️

Alittlefrustrated · 12/06/2025 19:28

Hope you are settled and working out in luxurious surroundings soon roonetta!
40 x 25m swim - zig zaging in a very busy pool, but it's better than nothing.

Yoga this morning. Not good but better than nothing.

50/200 (I think almost no hope of meeting my target this year).

BezMills · 13/06/2025 13:13

I've gymmed every day and BodyCombat last night. 119

ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson · 14/06/2025 09:16

Yoga Meltdown L2,and DD and I are going skating later. 51/200.

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 14/06/2025 15:47

Been a bit lazy this week. I was supposed to do a class on Wednesday but it was the instructor who really annoys me so I couldn't make myself go! Nice sea dip yesterday and a very hard going s&c this morning. The gym owner has hyrox notions so it was a very different routine.

Yoga flexibility flow (or in my case "demonstrate how inflexible I am" flow). My right hip, which has always been a bit dodgy, is celebrating my 50s by seizing up altogether.

1 hr pilates class yesterday
110
3.5 mile dog walk today

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 18/06/2025 13:44

S&c on Monday evening was absolutely baking...it's never good for the instructor to start the class with "Let's get through this..." 🥵 today was better but my shoulder was very tweaky so I had to modify a lot.

Qigong yesterday

Pilates class today

Had a lazy week - not enough exercise and too much food and alcohol 😳
Been a bit stressed, as I had to tell relatives that I need a break from dog duties. The ticks were doing my head in.

BezMills · 20/06/2025 14:19

2 BodyCombat and 5 gyms, 124

Alittlefrustrated · 20/06/2025 18:10

9.1 mile coastal walk - couldn't believe how busy the beaches /cafes/bars were. Lovely day.
114

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 20/06/2025 18:32

Another very sweltering s&c today. Away for the weekend and it's definitely too hot to make any sort of effort for any reason.

OP posts:
ProfessorRadcliffeEmerson · 21/06/2025 10:06

Yoga flows today and yesterday. Work still crazy, I’m going to be working most of the weekend apart from this evening.

I 've had a stomach issue and sore throat all week so no swimming. Today however, I've started a new regime. I' ve made myself a list of 15 things I've got to tick off every day, just to keep me moving, eg min. 10 mins elliptical walker, 10 mins weights, 5 mins dance, 10 mins pilates, mun 1 mile walk etc. I've done all 15 today, and exceeded all the minimum times, so feeling more energised. 🙂
117.

Alittlefrustrated · 28/06/2025 18:29

90 minute Cabaret dance class - it was a tad hot 🥵
Plus my new regime, though missed out Elliptical walker and weights so 13/15.

I haven’t read through the thread yet, but no doubt you are all killing it! My first exercise for a while for all sorts of reasons. Just back from a few days in London where lots of walking was done. Starting back slowly with some WWL. Need to get my motivation back. Not sure what number I was on 🫤. Hoping to get a walk in every day but will see how things go.
