Sat and Sun are rest days as I am working. Legs & glutes are sore from Thursdays workout anyway. Will still try to get my steps in tho
Hope the body scan goes well! I love looking/comparing the data from my scans, lol. ![]()
Just want to show everyone my wall balls. ![]()
I might start doing some additional resistance training with bands at home that I’m too embarrassed to do at the gym.
Like, I know it’s allowed to do our own thing during open gym hours but I just don’t want anyone looking at me. ![]()
Lol…you are doing great..I’m the same way
grateful that I can’t see who is it isn’t looking at me when I am in the pool ![]()
I want to work on my glutes because I feel like I’m getting an office chair butt. But (no pun intended
) I don’t want anyone to see me working on my booty. ![]()

I’m a big fan of home workouts ![]()

Just did arms! Yesterday was legs/abs, tomorrow is chest/back! Nothing much to report ![]()
I feel that my strength is starting to go down a bit due to inflammation of tendons, taking it easy right now on exercises that irritable my right elbow! Hopefully it heals soon ![]()
Oh that’s great. Glad you have recovered and are able to work out again

Day 1 of the November challenge
Just did a nice full-body workout
Actually felt pretty strong since I ate just before gym ![]()
Nailed it. Week 7
I did something different.
Rested more.
Ate more.
Trained harder (as I had more energy)
Strength training on Wednesday, I took enough time, warmup, veeery concentrated exercises, 20 minutes rowing and 3 rounds of Sauna afterwards. That training was totally different. Learning I need to take enough time for it.
Did some home strength training with classic exercises in between, the other days.
Body balance on Thursday.
Decent swims on Friday and Sunday where I had some amazing power.
Eating more carbs is not easy for me. Struggling. Still want to be leaner.
The carbs are also dramatically calming my nervous system. Will try to put it intelligent, also aligned with training. But I train a lot. Lol
Keep going guys ![]()
Exactly. I’m doing free weights these days instead of body pump.. Body pump is an amazing all over class for those who are time POOR and want to hit every body group in 45 minutes. But the real truth, for me, is that simple principles get me in shape and the magic happens when I’m more intentional:
Rest and sleep and enough protein.
Lots of water
Lift HEAVY, less reps. To failure.
Compound lifts for full body engagement: I love deadlifts mixed with upwards row and squats press into clean and press. Cardio kick benefit too.
Incline walking and stairclimber AFTER lifting
Walk at least 8k steps a day.
Spin class 2/3 times a week just for cardio health.
Eat clean as poss, but sustainable
Creatine daily
Even more water
Even more sleep.
Body balance/pilates as pleasure and physical rehab
My baby muskles ![]()
