Alta I love spotting wildlife on my walks. So fun that you saw some.
Wow, there has been a lot of posts in our little thread lately, I love it! So, I rescued a bookcase that was being discarded at work. I'm going to bring it home tomorrow for my workout DVDs. I will be rearranging them again and likely will be able to get rid of three smaller stands now that I have this other bookcase. It's solid wood and in great shape. I could not bear to see it get thrown in the trash. I also posted this in the Vintage Dustbunny thread: Today I did G Force Ultimate Step. Another GREAT workout!! The music was really good, sort of techno mix of very recognizable songs. Actually I would have preferred if they just used the regular songs instead of mixing them the way they did. But anyway, Michael Jackson was in there - super great! The choreography was mostly low impact and they repeat it enough times that I was able to grasp most of it on the first try. My least favorite section was Patrick's. His choreography just doesn't seem to agree with me as I always end up on the wrong foot with him. But despite this, it was super fun! Loved it! Hope you all have a great evening.

Hi Watulans!
I did my usual Thursday workout today as I have to go to the office tomorrow. For the moment, we have to go to the office 1 day per week as the technical infrastructures need to be upgraded so it's max. 25% per department on-site. Gradually, it will increase to 2 days per week, depending how fast the uppdate goes. I'm not in a hurry! I'm among the ones who love workong from home as there isn't much benefit to going to the office except seeing people in person! So, today I did Caroline's 20 Minute Bodyweight Leg Workout | Calisthenics Giant Sets (except for the hamstrings) followed by her 20 Min INTENSE GLUTE WORKOUT at Home with Resistance Band. I was a good combination! I think I need to work for on my glutes as I think it will help my lower back and hip problems. I recorded the Benjamin Franklin documentary on PBS but haven't seen it yet. Ken Burns usually has good programs. Nathalie |

I divided my post in parts because I'm afraid of the 500 error as it takes me quite a while to type!
I'm post-menopausal but I know that hot flashes can continue for a while even after our periods have stopped. I'm crossing my fingers that I don't get them when I'm still in my 70s! kittybug: You are so right that hormones are tricky and it's always changing. Kim and Kate: How lucky you were to go through menopause easily! VVfer: I'm with you on the sleep issue. I've always been a lousy sleeper. Menopause only made it worse! I saw on threads relating to Pahla Bowers that many peopole said they lost weight when they started doing lighter workouts. I think that there used to be a way of thinking that to lose weight or to increase strength, we should do more but I think that this way of thinking is changing, especially for women around menopause. Of course, everyone is different and we should do what we like and what suits us. That's the most important thing! Have a great evening! Nathalie |

Speaking of cardio workouts, today I did Body Attack 72. It's older and Lisa is 9 months pregnant!! Of course she totally modified the whole thing but was still drenched in sweat. Very inspiring. I did a mix of higher impact with the lower. It was great. I was drenched too. Taking off early today to take Justin to get his 2nd covid booster and then I told him I'd help him do some house cleaning. Isn't it always more fun to clean someone else's house?

kittybug - There aren't any roadrunners here. There were a few at the house. I love those little guys, even if they really don't say, "Beep! Beep!"
Mickey12 - I'm glad you're enjoying those vintage workouts. Some of the oldies have better music and a more joyful energy.
