Hope everyone had an amazing holiday!
I guess its back to the grind for most of us, so I'll start us off with a 3 mile run.

    Love the title!! So glad y'all are here!

    I've been doing some fun things with my new barbell, including a set of deadlifts (30kilo).

    I also did some hula hooping - wow, those work the abs.

    I got in 5 real pushups and 10 incline pushups with my new non-skid pushup handlebars.

    chani great going with the new workout equipment. Check out this site for dead lifts and clean and press.

    http://w3.lesmills.com/global/en/classes/bodypump/learn-the-moves/

    If you lower your weight you can do some triple rows.. Thats just 3 deadlifts in a row. Also the clean and press
    is when your lift the bar over your head stop at your waist and do a dead lift.

    My goals for the day
    1000 push ups-850 so far
    500 twists-500 Winning
    100bicep curls 8#-125 Winning
    20 pistols each leg-20 Winning

    Nice core workout that that sledgehammer

    These are the crazy fun things I'm doing with the barbell (I've got one end weighted):

    They're awesome core exercises! And the visualizations that go with the titles, make them fun, and help me with form.
