Hi T2B! It's a holiday of unknown origin that celebrates the VCR - "Rewind to the past and celebrate the humble Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) on June 7, VCR Day. This unofficial holiday of unknown origins encourages people to learn more about the technology that completely changed the way people watched television and recorded memories. "
here's a bit more on it: https://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/fun/vcr-day I thought it was appropriate for us vidiots! I have some Taebo Advanced Lives and Original Firm workouts as well as David Swenson's Short Forms on VHS so I'd planned to use one of those but my knees are still recovering so I posponed it to later. Hi to everyone else - hope you are all doing well. I'm still trying to take it easy so my knees fully recover...but it's so hard, I tend to want to push myself. Working out makes me feel good with the endorphin effect so I'm trying to move a little each day and get some of that without going too fast too soon and hurting them again. Never had knee issues before, so this is a new one for me to navigate. I'm glad the checkin is here, keeps me motivated. clerkin how exciting, hope everything goes smoothly with your daughter!

T2B, Enjoy your staycation! You definitely deserve it! I haven’t been doing the WW Zoom meetings. They are way to boring to me. Are you on Instagram? I found a couple good WW people on there that post some good ideas of stuff to make so that’s been helping me stay motivated. |

T2B, she misses her friends for sure, but she is doing pretty good actually, she like the classes via Internet, they are not too long and she finds them fun, she is good at doing her homework too. And she does video-calls with her best friend from time to time, so not too bad. I didn't know you were working from home, at least you will get a little break with your staycation, enjoy it!

T2B, I'm not really sure, it just seemed to happen suddenly. I think it was either overuse injury and/or some muscle imbalance that was exacerbated by the HIIT/step workouts I've been doing. I had a lot of pain all around the knee cap and cracking noises and it hurt more if I bent my knees. The pain and cracking noises have gone down mostly with rest and the knee strenghtening exercises I was doing, it still hurts to bend it though and have to be careful not to push the workouts too long/hard or it all just starts hurting again.
That's funny about your having to be careful pushing away, I can totally see that - glad the mat will be here soon! Enjoy your staycation! AnMrsDe, thanks! my HR monitor doesn't help either...all those numbers that could be EVEN HIGHER TOMORROW if I just push A LEETLE more!! But I guess I better take it easy for a while. CharM, thank you! They are quite a bit better, just have to let them rest. Haven't heard of her Checkout Set but I like Jenny Ford's step workouts - I can't get into her hi-lo ones though. She's such a sweet person and a good instructor too. Did you get the $1 deal for her workouts? Chrys, hope your trip is going well!
