Ttapp one of the hit the floors... DONE!
Lady Bug... DONE! The hit the floor reminded me of a workout I had ripped from a magazine YEARS ago, I used to call it the "rolling workout". The workout rolled side to side on the floor, starting in a seated position with your legs out in front of you, then ending in a laying down position with your arms overhead. I think I threw it away recently when I was frustrated and just grabbed a handful of old papers and threw them away. Now I wish I had gone through them! I wonder if that old workout was Teresa? Some of the exercises were exactly the same, so I'm sure it was! I did lady bug yesterday. I just love that workout now. I am focusing on form, but not to the point where I am trying to tense everything and force my knees out. I think that's where I burnt myself out last time. Now I am just doing the moves to the best of my ability, but not striving for perfection and not worrying the whole time that I am not doing it "perfectly" and won't see results. Now I know I probably won't see results anyhow, but if I at least get better posture, I"m good. Eventmom: So I was going to get more workouts too, but now I guess all you can get them on is Amazon or Ebay. Since Teresa died, she didn't have a will so her estate has been in probate since 2017 (I think that's when she died). The lawyers were supposed to keep things at least online, but they didn't and some other rogue person got the site when it expired and put up just click bait and is probably making money on people who don't know. Of course, people who bought streaming workouts they couldn't download are all upset, which is another nail in the coffin of streaming for me. And that "lifetime access to your workouts!!" Not gonna do that either. All those people are upset because they no longer have access, some of them paid right before the site went down. More reason for me at least, to buy DVD's and not stop! I'm glad I have the workouts I do now. I picked up a few more on Amazon, they are only $20 for the ones I got, but there are limited titles there. I will have to watch eBay if my t-tapp goes on too long. I do have one or two hit the floors, some of the seminars, ladybug, and one or two others, so I have plenty of t-tapps to get me through. Of course there are "t-tapp instructors" who are putting things on YouTube, and some day if I continue on this path I will look into them. However, I also know with Teresa gone the instructors will slowly change things and evolve it, and right now I am being a purist My cold is mostly gone now, so I am getting back into working out more. I took some days off just because I didn't want to push the cold further into my system. I somehow got info on a "lymphatic seminar" and have been listening to some of the speakers, and it's really interesting. I remember a friend of mine when I was a massage therapist was doing lymphatic massage, and I thought that if I kept doing massage much longer I would go into that since it's gentle work and I was getting aches and pains from deep work. Then add in my current t-tapp stuff, and that reinvigorated my interest. Last time I did t-tapp I tried dry brushing, but got annoyed with how much time it took. In the seminar there's a guy with a "1 minute lymphatic massage" so I am going to hang out with him and his minute. Much more doable. I guess I am going in a totally new direction with my workouts! I think I'm at the point where I'm thinking nothing is working, so instead of stressing about trying to get results, I'm going in the direction of learning more about my body and just moving, which was always a passion with me before I became obsessed with results. Ebianco: I think the only reason DH has lost interest in the donkey is because we are in the middle of the garage build, and then he is still thinking he wants to build a house (even though I told him I am over that one). So he doesn't want to have a donkey wandering around while our yard is torn apart for years. Plus with getting big trucks in and out, and all the construction stuff... we'd have to fence off another part of the yard just to keep him in so he'd stay away from the area. Hopefully you get your "OK" soon! I think it's great you have been kinda feeling it out and trying without the brace on. It's funny how we are so conditioned to waiting for the official word, like that is when we are finally healed, we usually do what we are "supposed" to do until the Doctor says "you are released!". It sounds like your wrist is healed though, so high five for working your way out of the brace before he give his blessing! I think I always go to "what would Little House on the Prairie do?" which is a weird way to think, but it gets me out of the modern world and into when people were a little more intuitive living. Anyhow, Ma Ingalls would have taken her brace off when she felt better too. So good for you for doing it the Little House way Oh, as a side note, I did sign LB up for the karate through 2nd degree black belt. We want her to be a black belt anyhow, and since we started we might as well finish (which I am sure is what they bank on too!) I am still nervous about having to take her there 2 times a week for the next 4-5 years, but I will figure it out. Luckily, another Mom I have known for a while has signed up too, and we will see each other there, I'm sure a lot! She has 4 kids, and just signed up her oldest. So I"m sure as each successive kid wants to do it, she has just committed herself to like 10 years of 2 times a week. So I think "if she can do it, knowing she may be doing this for the next decade, I can too." I am just glad she will get her 2nd degree black belt. I will worry less about her in life now!!
