Hi Everyone,
This morning was: Ellen - Upper Body Blast - this one is on her paid site - it is 20 min of upper body w/ light weights. Senior Shape Fitness (You Tube) - Gentle Pilates and Stretch - I swallowed my pride, LOL, and did a workout from a "Senior" channel, but this was a very good routine - it was mainly stretching and mobility, but it felt really good. I will definitely do this one again - the only drawback is it is on the longer side, but well worth it if you have the time. I really liked Lauren - she doesn't look very "senior" to me - and she has a nice variety of workouts on her channel - kickboxing, barre, weights, low impact, Pilates... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkW...tZqqA/featured Later today I will get my Leslie mile done. Carol - that hip mobility routine is interesting and I also noticed the same thing as you - one side is way more flexible than the other. I meant to get back to Jessica V this week, but I didn't...maybe next week, LOL! I would probably not last very long in the Plains - I read a book recently about the Children's Blizzard. Oh my! I guess I can live with our dreary/cloudy days - things are generally pretty predictable out here. Nice work, Dana....I am not a fan of those temps, that is for sure. The good thing for me, is that the cold weather that was predicted here may not happen, I think the moisture we are getting is bringing in warmer air - so the 20's we were supposed to have will be upper 30's/40's. The trade off is that it is gray and dreary and every day we are getting some form of precipitation - rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow or sometimes all of them! Christine - nice job - there are so many good channels now on You Tube. Thanks for sharing that one! Hope everyone has a good day - Happy Friday! Donna |

Today's workouts were
Lindsay Brin - Barre Cardio - 24 minutes; Pilates Nest - Full Body Strengthening & Cardio - 30 minutes First time I have ever worked out wearing long underwear under my regular workout clothes, plus a sweater! Lindsay's barre cardio was basically low impact cardio, although there were portions that were higher impact, they could be easily modified. I did work up a sweat. Full Body Strengthening & Cardio was Smriti's newest - and I guess last - workout. I liked it a lot - it was about 2/3 standing and 1/3 on the mat. All of it incorporated weights. It has been so cold here today! I think our high was 7! We are expecting rolling blackouts this evening and all of the area schools have cancelled classes for tomorrow because of the possibility of blackouts. Lovely! Donna - Nice workouts! You are right, Jessica has been incredibly generous with us! I am looking forward to Lift & Shift, but I figure it will get here when it gets here. In the interim, I popped off and bought: https://smile.amazon.com/Define-Alig...3436633&sr=8-2 Too much time on my hands, obviously! Carol |

Hi Everyone,
My DD and I tried to walk yesterday, but it was pretty grim out there, we didn't get far. I also added on the Essentircs workout for the kick off of leg week. It was a live workout w/ Gail. It was a nice routine. Today, so far, has been: Jessica Smith - 30 Min Fusion Strength - (You Tube) - this was a tough little workout....and the first day of the Four Weeks of Fusion rotation. I'm not sure if I will follow the rotation or not, but, at least as of today, I'm thinking about it. Yoga w/ Adriene - Breath - Day 13 - Feel - I picked this series up where I left off. It was an enjoyable practice. I will try to get up for a walk today. It is back to work after the long weekend, unfortunately. Carol - I hope you are doing ok w/ the storms and power outages - hopefully minimal impact for you. Ugh. That program looks great - I put it on my Amazon wish list. Is the instructor the lady who has the You Tube channel Workout Hotel? https://www.youtube.com/user/Workouthotel I may try some of her workouts. Keep us posted when you can both about the situation in Texas and the workouts! Waves, everyone, Donna |
