Hi everyone!
I am back for my vacation and I did work out the whole time! The fast wifi and youtube came through for me, my first trip that I didn't even pack a DVD player and DVDs! Besides working out, I got in tons of steps each day, averaging about 10k and was great! Last Wednesday: a Grow with Jo warm up (don't remember which) then Daniel PT Fitness slow bodyweight total body (this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG4G...RxhpiI&index=1) which was great! The slow pace really made it tough on the muscles. Last Thursday: another Grow with Jo warm up (or maybe it was a Gina B?) then this fitness_kaykay total body band workout, I used Cathe's medium resistance band mostly, and a little of the heavy band, and it was great! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZXO...RxhpiI&index=2) Last Friday: I had a lot of DOMS from Thursday especially in my shoulders, and decided to take it down a notch and did more Grow with Jo, then this Daniel PT ab workout (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx24...RxhpiI&index=3), then a good portion of this Michele Briehler yoga workout (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fx3i...RxhpiI&index=4) and ended up doing about a 90 minute workout, since I had time, and it was rejuvinating even though I felt tired beforehand! Last Saturday: Another Grow with Jo then this Caroline bodyweight total body workout (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD90...RxhpiI&index=5). Of course, Caroline is tough even if it is just bodyweight! Last Sunday: I took a redeye flight Saturday night/Sunday morning so I ended up sleeping all day Sunday. It was an unplanned rest day and that was just fine! Mon-Tues planned rest days Yesterday: I was still really tired "losing" three hours and getting used to east coast time again, so I didn't work out, but that's okay. Today: Got back into it with what was planned for yesterday, legs with Caroline (this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dZZ...i4uVpN&index=3) and it was great! I didn't work out until noon because I couldn't get up early, too sleepy, thank goodness my sleep study is tomorrow night because I am feeling the fatigue again! But it was a lot of bodyweight work and went fast today. Tomorrow will be the upper body that I should have done today, then total body Saturday and barre on Sunday. Eventmom I've heard Classical Stretch for athletes is a really good one! And I still love Gina B workouts, I still think of you every time I do one of her workouts! Buzzer I love the Fitprime workouts but I am also lukewarm about the upper body workout, even though I love Keli's Strong Bear, like you said the pushups seem hard then everything else seems easy, and it just doesn't feel like it flows well. I didn't like the Fitprime lower body workout at all. I think I did it all the way through once and said never again! That was years ago, but I still don't want to do it LOL! I too still have so many DVDs I haven't done in YEARS, or at ALL, but it's tough to tear myself away from youtube workouts that are so polished and constantly have new content! I am still keeping them all though in case for whatever reason the great youtube workouts go away! I never forget that I don't "own" them or would have access to them if they were pulled for any reason. I should take the best Caroline workouts and download them, but my youtube downloader doesn't work anymore, I need to research it. That is crazy about all your fence accidents!!! What a headache

Hi everyone,
Today was Caroline upper body with EPIC Endgame (this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2U5...i4uVpN&index=4) which is a real toughie. besides the work being 60 seconds on (instead of maybe 45), the staple exercise is decline pushups with your feet elevated. My arms are so tired already! Tomorrow apparently I have to stay at the sleep clinic until noon, so they can do additional testing for hypersomnia, so I am not sure how that will translate to me exercising which is always in the morning. I'll just have to play it by ear. If nothing else, maybe I'll go for an extra long walk and do stretching then return Sunday for barre. I'm glad I'm finally getting the study and my insurance is covering it. Eventmom I'm sorry you tested positive for covid! I really hope the symptoms remain minimal and you get better soon! Yes the youtube workouts are just amazing! I think people think exercise videos are so outdated, but what do they think youtube workouts are? LOL. I called someone out on that once haha. Buzzer waves!
