Since there are only 25 days listed that gives us 6 days of rest to sprinkle as needed If anyone has questions on other exercises please let me know!!!
This title is very misleading.
You Go Girl
Thank you for the pics and the instructions. Love your handwriting! Tagging in @Its_me_Stella for your daughter, and @Andy_Charlie and @ShesGotMoxie from the November thread!
Thank you!!!
Gotta get people in the thread somehow
I’m excited for this one! @SinceIAwoke thanks for the hand writing compliment! I was writing it for myself and figured I’d just post it instead of typing it out
Cool! I like this one! I’m in!!
Though I’m traveling tomorrow for a short break to the north of Spain, so it’s gonna be exercises in my hotel room!
Thank you for tagging me, I’m in!!! This sound fun!! I will print the 25 days of exercises.
Day 1, 1 minute plank, done!!
Dang it
Fell for it again.
But did you do a plank?!? Come on, just 1 little plank
I’m really into my Pilates reformer these days. I actually just got done my hour work out. The old man needs to know his limits. Since I been using the reformer and got my trainer I haven’t hurt myself. I’m too old to be getting hurt. But I did totally forget this is your workout thread.
Got to listen to my body right?
Day 1✔️ (I think I’m gonna let November just be done lol- maybe next year I’ll finish it)
Come on now, you can do one hour and one minute more! I was never good at knowing my limits until I smashed through them. And you know what? They are mainly in my head! I can use my body wisely and still do all the stuff I want to do. Now, crashing a bike or taking a header running down a trail, well, that’s getting into the limitations area just a wee bit…
Day 1 done. Quotes this month will feature Thomas Aquinas, a Catholic philosopher I studied in my misspent youth at the seminary. True story, I was asked to leave after too much beer drinking (they sold it for a quarter for a pint in the basement bar, come on!) and hanging out with my girlfriend (summer camp lifeguard who I could not resist) on campus.
From Summa Theologica
Article 3: Whether several angels can be at the same time in the same place?
This reference is sometimes phrased as “How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?”, and yes, we debated it.
Will a story be added for each quote also?
Day 2 - nice little calf burn there are the end
Day 2 done! I returned at 2:00 pm from my trip, and went straight to the gym! Well, almost! First I had to clean the mess that my cat made in my absence (kick over a plant and scratch out all the turf! ). Today in the gym I had, among others, 15 minutes of rope skipping. I’ll count that as the 2-min jumping jacks!
Day 2, I did the push-ups, I’d catch he’ll for doing jumping jacks at this time of night!
If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
Rene Descartes, Catholic philosopher
I spent most of months 6-18 in sobriety doubting everything, the AA program, a higher power, my own worth. At 18 months, I had a spiritual experience, detailed elsewhere on TS, when my dog died and I came to an understanding of what a higher power must be. I haven’t doubted much since. Seen lots of bullshit and lots of beauty. I can accept them both today as being real.
Day 3 done! 30 push up are quite a lot for me, so I did knee push ups!
