PN Pilates for Stress Relief and Anxiety
Buff Bites Back of Shoulder and Balance work The PN spent a lot of time working the hips and glutes and stretching and it was lovely. Buff Bites used a band and did standing work in various planes of motion using a lot of bow and arrow moves. Linda~I used to love all the Element workouts. They are soothing and have lovely settings. Christine~continuing to pray for you. Carol~our neighborhood is literally a dead end. You get back in here and all the streets connect, usually in a circle of sorts. There's only one way out and in, though. Donna~are you going to have to go back to the office?

Hi Everyone,
This morning I was feeling really stiff so I did: Trifeccta Pilates - Wake up with Pilates and the 2nd half of the Tone, Burn & Stretch workout I started yesterday. It is finally sunny and that should help a bit w/ our moods! Last night DD and I walked and we'll walk again tonight. I may try to get a "spark" in this afternoon - I'm finding some short - 10-20 min - bursts help throughout they day. Christine - I hope you are ok!! Cheri - those sound like nice workouts. I may have to look into Buff...I like the idea of doing little bits throughout the day now that I'm working from home for the foreseeable future! Linda - I enjoy that Element workout too - if i recall correctly, it had some good hip flexor stretches.... Hope everyone has a good day - back to the grind! Donna |

Wednesday's workouts were:
Buff Bites; Leslie Sansone - Walk, Run, Lift - 30 minutes; Dog Walk - 45 minutes; Pilates Nest - Pilates for Stress and Anxiety - 30 minutes The 30 minute Walk, Run, Lift workout was led mostly by Nick, with some help from Rocky. I wish Rocky had led the entire walk - she's much better at cuing than Nick, who has no concept of what an 8 count is and always seems to start on about count 3. It's set up with 3 circuits of [surprise] Walking (3 minutes), Running type moves (2 minutes), a transition walk (about 2 minutes) and Lifting (2 minutes with the band). I wish the Lifting segments had been longer and used weights instead. Music and outfits were not horrible. Leslie was nowhere in sight. The Pilates for Stress and Anxiety routine was nice, but I'm not sure why it was called that. It was a nice idea to start out the month, though. Donna - Nice workouts. Sunshine does make everything better, doesn't it? Can you imagine if this mess had started in January or so? January is depressing enough because of the weather. Cheri - Our neighborhood sounds similar - we have a couple of ways in and out, but they are not direct and there's only one main way for cars to get to the other side of the neighborhood because of the greenway that runs through the neighborhood. It is good for walking though. Linda - I'm spending a lot of time on Zoom these days for meetings, and I hate looking at myself on the screen. I'm pretty scary (and old) looking. Love the background setting for the Element DVDs. I would love to be the gardener for that property. Has anyone heard from Christine lately, or Brenda? I'm getting worried about them. Carol |

Good morning,
I tried streaming GHUTV workout at 7am and thought I couldn't possibly have problems that early, but the workout started freezing just a minute into it. I decided I wasn't going to waste my time and momentum on trying to work through it so instead I did: Gina B's Dance That Walk Total Body Sculpt 2 + Bonus Abs - 65 min. I like this DVD a lot! Later I'm going to try to stream ePilates and hope for the best. I'm glad I still have my DVDs to fall back on. I ordered GHUTV Fit Over 40 DVD set few days ago, and I'm glad I did! I think she still has them on special for 59.99. Hope everyone is doing well!

LOL, Carol I'm glad my work laptop does not have a camera! we are mostly meeting in TEAMS. some people have cameras and you can see them, others either don't have them or turn them off. I think all of that stuff is pretty unflattering no matter how good you look or how young you are!
Hot and Flashy had a You Tube video that shows how to look better in a video call - I didn't watch it but I saw it was posted. Nice workouts! I am also worried about Christine and Brenda! Donna waves, Dana! I should order some of the sets from Chris..... |
