Barefoot & On the Mat, September 2021 - "Do you remember...September!"

Hi everyone - it's an absolutely gorgeous Sunday here! The sky is pure blue, no clouds, and it's in the low 70s! I had a perfect few hours browsing at a local outdoor festival, where I pet the alpacas and goats, ate a blueberry pie bar, bought a bottle of wine, and picked up a few other little things too. Also had a great last outdoor Mind-Body-Brew class yesterday, with 13 attending despite the threat of rain and then the sun shining just as we came out of shavasana!

I had a few pretty light days this week but I still managed to do something every day.

Monday
30MTF Build & Burn - Kickbox Kettlebell Fusion
Ekhart 7 Daily Yoga Practices - Yin Yoga for Lower Back Health

Tuesday
HDM (YT) - Classic Arms & Shoulders
TAUGHT yoga at studio

Wednesday
Jessica Valent Pilates (YT) - 10m Core Workout
30MTF Your Best Body - Workout #2 (did kettlebells during core rests)
Anita Goa (YT) - Upper Body Foam Roller

Thursday
Yoga with Olga (YT) - Short Workout for Biking
Body Barre (YT) - Lower Body Barre with Ally
Belinda Yan (YT) - Weighted Glutes with Kettlebell
Live Zoom yoga class - Midday Stretch & Balance

Friday
TAUGHT yoga at college
Kimberly Spreen-Glick (YT) - Core Cuts Med Ball #2
Heather Robertson (YT) - At Home Arm Toning with Weights
Fit30 (YT) - Kate McKenzie Pilates for Lower Back Pain

Saturday
TAUGHT Mind-Body-Brew yoga class
HDM (YT) - Armatics Taster

Sunday
100 KB swings
Empower Swing Yourself Fit (new, all)*

This was one of the DVD I bought this past week. Gin Miller uses an adjustable KB that goes up to 8# at its highest weight, so that didn't really work with my 8kg and 12kg kettlebells! However, I found that if I altered between using a 10# DB and my KBs, I got a good strength workout. I don't think I'm even going to try the BOSU workout I bought though. For one thing, it looks super-dated and cheesy, and for another, I don't think the surface of my Firm Balance Trainer is large enough for the kinds of things they do on the BOSU. Oh well, I'm only out $1 there.
