They say, making your goals public improve the chances that you will stick with them, soooo...Jan and Feb I did a 20 pound challenge program and dropped 24 pounds, I'm feeling much better.
Now, I'm moving into exercise/fitness goal 2017 Part II. I wanted to build muscle but with all the travel I see on my calendar this quarter I didn't think the gym was going to get it done so I started looking into suspension systems. I settled on the WOSS ($100 cheaper than TRX, quality seems the same). The biggest problem was finding the joist to hang it from the ceiling. I'm using Dan Long's routines (the program takes around 45 minutes a day)for the next three months.
His program includes online videos of the exercises online as well as written instructions. The nice part is this fits in my suitcase and you use the hotel doors to hang it, so no excuses while traveling.
Completed my first set today, and I can feel the burn. I finished my C25K program and I'm able to run for 30 minutes without a break so my off days are now going to be interval training to improve my speed for the Redbud on April 9.
Ok, now that I have outed myself, anyone else?
last night i redid the open work out and completed all reps in 19.56
now ready for 17.2
Too bad Sports Authority is gone because in that huge store full of athletic wear I could always find something flattering and comfortable.
I would look at Under Armour stuff particularly with your beautiful long-legged shape you may find the line was seemingly designed just to flatter you !
Yes it's expensive- but I've seen their own stores offer deep discounts. You get what you pay for - it feels great to look and feel amazing in your workout gear !
If you want to hold in stuff or not jiggle it helps to buy the smallest size you can stand . Obviously you don't want constriction around the chest.
Have you guys tried showering with 2 percent salicyic acid body wa**** turns the skin over like a kid's and in my experience noticeably firms the skin ( permanently) .
I also used to put 2percent salicylic acid face toner on my least favorite body parts after showering: I swear it helped with fat around the kneecaps inner thighs the tummy even double chin :)
Of course plastics are the most effective forever solution but not everyone wants them and we all deserve to look great in the meantime.
Iam doing the Crossfit open for the first time and just completed the workout 17.1 and wow that was the hardest i have ever pushed my self i completed 221 of the 225 reps
not bad for my first time
I played Florence over the weekend. I was both Nightingale and Johnston. That means nurse and maid to a down and out hubby and wild 7 year old. The lack of sleep i****ting me hard. Not to mention that I have no gym partners today. So today is a real test of wills, but I'm going to sweat!

Lol lol! I'm definitely not a geezer and I love mall walking ! It's free it's heated there are displays to look at and like you basically have the place all to yourself with some exercise nuts ( and a few in shape geezers :) who can be very nice )
this time of year I get Crazy invitations to join gyms free or try them for weeks . There are like five gym chains in my area so I could easily work out every day for free until the weather gets warm . To tell the truth farming season is starting so I'm painting fences repairing beds etc and starting to plant fruit trees .
I will start it but I can not say what my work out will be truly like this coming week. I have been pretty ill and I have a feeling I have bronchitis. Tried to run today and did not go well. only did an hour instead of my 3 hours and it was mostly walking. I had to keep stopping due to coughing up my lung. Hope to see doctor this week. I have a race next sunday and by no means am i ready for it Well share though I have signed up for my first 1/2 ironman which will take place in sept. and I have some heavy training a head of me since I am weak with the bike.
