Hi Everyone,
Back to reality today --- I really enjoyed my holiday break. Today was: Pahla B - Walk Off the Weight - Day 4 - this was low impact cardio done "inchworm" style. I was surprised that I was getting breathless during the final phases of the inchworm where you sting three exercises together. I don't know why I was surprised, I should know better that Pahla's stuff is harder than it seems and is cumulative. Yoga w/ Adriene - Breath - Day 3 - Anchor Yesterday I added on some PT from Jessica Valent - I did one of her SI joint practices and then her stretching for sciatica. My SI joint is bugging me - and it is interesting that she mentions that what it needs most is stability and not stretch - so i have been trying to focus more on stabilizing it - I even sub'd the cat cows in Adriene's yoga w/ bird dogs. I may take a walk outside today - short - or I may do some more work w/ Jessica V.... Dana - I'm sorry to hear about Basil. Watching their health decline is the worst part of being a pet parent. Carol - sending prayers for your DS. Hopefully it is just "start of the semester" jitters, and I hope he starts to feel more positive about his classes and thesis soon. Waves, Linda...and so sorry to hear about Christine's cat... Hope everyone has a good Monday. Donna |

As Donna said, it's back to reality today, although it's not quite all the way back. We had a scheduled staff work day - the kids return tomorrow. I even left a little bit early and was one of the last ones out of the building. All in all, a good day - I got a fair amount done.
Workouts were: PahlaB - Walk Off the Weight - Day 4 (low impact cardio) - 23 minutes Jessica Valant - 20 Minute Gentle Beginner Pilates Mat Workout As Donna said, Pahla's cardio can be sneaky. I also found myself a little winded towards the end of each leg of the stepstool. Jessica's Gentle Pilates routine was her Monday YouTube release and I managed to get through it without an ad. No ads yet on Pahla's videos. Donna - That kind of makes sense - stability versus stretch. If it's a joint issue, it would need stability; and if it's a muscle issue, it would need stretch. She's a big one for pushing strengthening, like any physical therapist. Dana - Nice workouts! Waves ~ Carol |
