    @nossmf what about doing the cardio after the weights? How many days are you at the gym? How long have you been doing the bike before weights? Maybe you just need a week or two to adjust?

    Mostly it's about realistic motivation. As in, if I put the cardio after the weights, there's a 50/50 chance I may find an excuse why not to do the cardio...too tired, not enough time, etc. But if I put the weights after, there's a 100% chance I will do at least part of the weights workout.

    @giantrobot_powerlifting - wowzer! Good luck this weekend! Looks to me like you might kill it.

    Have been quiet here, but just busy. Have been doing some 40k bike rides and some power walking.
    Grandkids are visiting this weekend, so it should be a fun filled one.

    Happy September!
    Core class this morning, then an hour walk with friends. Then I spent an hour helping my husband fill the cracks in the driveway so he can reseal it. My 40+ year old back has had it!

    Great weather here this weekend, so a bunch of things going on. Yoga and an outdoor concert yesterday, quick bike workout today, and tomorrow will be a longish hike in the Bershires.

    Time to get back down to business, so I signed up for the South Beach Olympic distance tri next April. Nice to have a race on the schedule again.

    Hi there! :)
    I'm new in the 40s club. Starting it over again after I hadn't done exercises for almost a year due to hectic schedule and stressful. My goal is: lose the weight, strength and tone. I'd like to participate more races like Spartan, Terrian and others. I have other goal that I would like to, as long as I am focusing on my first goal. :#

    I did a cardio workout this morning and then walked the CNE fairgrounds for a few hours. I feel pretty tired, now. lol

    I did try one mac and cheese ball and some poutine and one beer. That’s it. BOOM!

    Am so looking forward to the fall exercise classes starting up. Yoga, Pilates, zumba...all fun stuff. :)
    Have been walking and cycling when weather permits.

    Happy September all - summer flew by! Sigh.

    Happy Tuesday kids, I had varied bench work yesterday and varied deadlifts today. It appears my appetite is increasing as I feel like I am devouring everything. Good news is I have not potato chips or chocolate since June. This is huge progress for me. September is Alopecia Awareness Month. I am glad that people are becoming more aware of this auto immune disease that impact millions of men, women and children. Have a great day kids.

    Squats and bench presses this morning. And I pushed the sled for 20 reps. Glad that is done.

    Wed is rest day, so I'm going to make that my progress check day.

    So far so good for September. All 3 days of workouts done, food on target, yay me!
