Checking in, I took the weekend off. I’ve been doing my 30 minutes on my air walker five days a week. I skipped one day last week because I pressure washed the house so I counted that as my workout for that at. I’m also back to counting my calories. I’ve gone down to 1500 from 1900. We’ll see how it goes!

Can’t say I’ve totally got back in the swing of things since the brain surgery in September. I was cleared to return to moderate gym work around a month after surgery and in that time have had significant complications with my right shoulder. Osteo has been dry needling and giving me strengthening exercises but still quite sore. He was recommended to me by my former PT, and I’m very happy to be returning to her gym program and guidance from next week.

I was sore from my RDLs (which I did on Thursday) until Sunday.

I think that means I’m a bigger pain in the ass than you :wink:

I did my back and tricep workout yesterday. Warmed up on the rowing machine then did pull-ups, dips, skullcrsuhers, rows, pull downs, pushdowns, etc. Sauna after.

Today I’m gonna hit the treadmill for a couple miles and then do my shoulder workout.

Leg/Ab and cardio day!

Feeling super focused and strong today!
Was able to increase weight on leg press and when doing single leg - leg press. I think sometimes I dont give myself enough credit for how strong I can potentially be. Im not as strong as some others here but Im pleased with how I am pushing myself. Everyone starts somewhere!

I am also enjoying my cardio afterwards. Im not putting myself into exhuastion. Im probably doing a little bit higher than Zone 2 but its a comfortable walk for me. I actually feel energized now after my workouts :slight_smile:

Todays weight: 234.6lb
Was 237.4lb yesterday lol Its amazing how the body fluctuates weight lol

I think it’s important to recognize that it’s not always about going harder, heavier, faster and burning ourselves to the ground. My body can’t handle that anymore.

I used to think that I needed to hit all the muscles groups every day and punish myself. Now I do 4 circuits for 45 minutes to an hour spread out in a week. And give myself the grace to miss some workouts because of life. Eat clean, get decent sleep, stay off screens late at night, sobriety, do a couple 20 minute walks, make my cardio fun. Strive for slow and consistent. That’s what’s sustainable.

You kick ass, Dana. And inspire me in all the facets of your life.

Awe thanks sooo much friend. Ur post made me smile! :smiley: You also inspire me friend! Your insights and wisdom and determination for a better life, inspires me :slight_smile:

And youre absolutely right about not needing to go all out every workout. Im very much an all-or-nothing kind of person. Go big or go home type of woman lol And honestly, im really enjoying exercise more, now that Im not running myself into the ground. Im focusing on quality of my workouts.

I love ur routine and in just trying to strive for an overall healthy lifestyle. I think thats what its about! This is a lifestyle change and it needs to be sustainable.

Glad ur here friend and on this journey with me!
