    Finally back to working out. Between being sick and being super busy at work and the long weekend I hadn't worked out for 2 weeks. Felt ok. Did cardio kickboxing Friday night and Saturday and kettlebell Saturday too. Felt good to hit and kick the bag. Didn't go as heavy as usual in kettlebell to avoid any injuries and because I still seem to get tired.

    Today is a two hour self defence seminar which should be good. This is the class I take Friday nights, the founder is in town so we have a seminar and then grading Friday night. I've never graded for anything before so I'm a little nervous!

    Why types of exercise do you all stick with? I walk 2+ miles every morning and try to run a bit.

    Honestly the key is to do something physical you enjoy and are more likely to stick with it.
    I do resistance training 2x week and cardio 4x week and one rest day.
    Once I reach maintenance I plan in splitting it evenly.

    Ran 15km race today. Lots of stops due to lack of training but still ran reasonably respectable time. Then kicked a** at pool tournament!

    I don't have MAX:30. I hear Beachbody's summer sale starts today and that will be one of the programs on sale. depending on the discount, I MAY grab it.

    Well....... It's a new week. I don't seem to be getting the exercise routine down to well. Between 40 hours a week job, school, and a family, which includes a grand-baby I keep on the week end it just doesn't seem to be coming together. I am getting the eating thing down though. I had a couple of blunders but much better than usual. I did get to walk some Friday. I did 16000 steps according to my fitbit, so "yay me"! Feeling better if nothing else. Well, here's to a new week!

    Legs last night and back this morning.
    Love working the hammies- they give the back of your leg nice definition.

    hello all. i still worked out but slacked on diet all winter [gained a few pounds grrr]. I am back on MFP. Doing Jim Stoppini's Hiit 100 6 week shred weight lifting program 6 days a week + 3 HIIT 20 minute run sessions a week [have a great app for that] and an awesome PIYO class at my gym 1 day/week. Also trying to get my macros right, especially protein. Have lost 2 pounds in 2 weeks ....15-20 pounds to go...yikes! but it's nice doing less cardio and more lifting...I never want to see 160 again. Shocked frankly that I was above 160 at 5'2"! [my goal is 140...at my most fit in my 30s I was in the low 130s].
