I ran this morning in the early part of the weird wind storm hitting Toronto. I think that I have now run in every type of weather possible, except for natural disasters! Tomorrow, I meet up with my frenemy, the hill of doom. Everybody’s workouts are very inspiring, keep it going!!2 -

Not going to lie, hill of doom was super hard today. I am listening to the audiobook version of Make Your Bed: Little Things That You Can Do To Change Your Life and Maybe the World by retired Admiral William McRaven. He describes life lessons learned from his esteemed military career and goes into detail about his Navy Seal training, which was beyond intense. He has a chapter on perseverance and not quitting, so as I was struggling, I kept hearing him say “DON’T QUIT!!!!”
I wanted to introduce all of you to my frenemy, the hill of doom. It doesn’t look so bad in this photo, but don’t be fooled!!

Today-cardio just didn’t have it in me to do abs plus my son is sick and asked me every other minute if I was done.
Today’s cardio was killer!! I started those many variations of squats strong and deep and by the end had my legs in more of a diamond shape on those sumos. OMG!
I am also sore and after today am a little scared of tomorrow’s workout. At least it’s my last for the week. I will be feeling proud of myself after my morning workout when I have lived through my first week of body beast.
It is so awesome to be doing it together!

I'm a total beast while working out. A total try hard. Never was like that before. I just got done telling a friend i wouldnt continue if it wasn't for my online friends. Soooo motivational. Even our runner friend ♡ @cafelelia.
I'm doing this! and posting my before and afters.
Oh and I spelt Beast with my feet and then backwards! You better believe it.4 -
To see Sagi's story:
Beachbody on demand. Go to Sagi's BOD exclusives. Then watch the series "the making of a beast" Good stuff!

You know what guys ?!?!!
You know what you did ??
YOU inspired me so much yesterday by doing the scheduled cardio even though we are all so sore that when I got home after a day at work and a retirement dinner (pizza, lasagna, cesar salad and chocolate cake
) I went for it ! Full tummy ! Buurrrrrnnnnnneeedddddd calories and beasted my way pumping hard throught the entire workout !!! WITH YOU ALL IN MIND !!!!! You are in my home gym, in the stands, rooting me on !! It's real !!!!!
I even walked on the treadmill after just to burn an extra 250 cals off the imposed dinner.
So yeah.
Thank you
To say the least.
I did't do the abs cause I thought I would do a better job at it if I did them on my rest day.
That felt right to me.
Toninght is shoulders
Bring it !!!

@jburns2005 my husband and I also have to go get more weights. I think I would love a bench also but we will see. Anyone have a smart scale that is inexpensive? I would love one that syncs to MFP.

We have one bench. Its attached to the boflex my neighbor was going to toss. I love that. We swap off who gets to use it at the moment. I need something for inclines when we are together though.1
-
I use a ball for inclines and it works great. Good for stabilisation too ! And cheap !!
I am actually thinking about getting the addition to my power block. I have to check it out... on my next days off.
Yay !!!
Great week everyone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HFM Training - Week 10
Sunday - rest
Monday - 14 km long run
Tuesday - 5 km steady run
Wednesday - 5 km, 6x hill of doom
Thursday - 6 km steady run
Friday - rest
Saturday rest, optional restorative yoga class
Ok Fierce people, I have 8 weeks left in this plan and I need to switch it up! I love running, but have been stressed being on what has become a rigid schedule and am starting to feel burn out. The long runs are getting long & the short runs are getting long! My goal is to finish and have fun, and I want to ensure my back pain continues to ease away. What my mind and body are telling me is to be kinder to myself and have more fun with this. So I am dropping my heaving lifting for arms & core, and also dropping one short run per week. I am adding 20 minutes each evening of physio exercise (which is really yoga & Pilates based strengthening and stretching), and one optional yoga session per week. My husband and I used to start Saturday date nights with a 6 pm restorative class, but that has fallen away in the past year. So we have decided to start up this tradition again! I am feeling confident that I can complete the race, but I want to feel good during the journey towards it!
Jamie - I purchased the Eufy bodysense smart scale after doing some research. It retails for around $33 in the U.S. It is supposed to be one of the more accurate home smart scales out there. I have been using it only 3 weeks, but it has been a real game changer for me. One of my main concerns with simultaneous weight loss & race training is going too far on the calorie deficit so as to lose muscle mass rather than fat. The Eufy has given me the comfort that what I am doing is working and that my weight lost is fat. I do not think that it syncs with MFP, and have not been using it for that.
Have a great week everyone!

I can totally relate and empathize with this post Lisa. When training for an event, I also had those same feelings of “isn’t this supposed to be fun too”...
We are always right when we listen to our gut, our heart, our soul, call it what you will. Inside, we know.
Adapting is key. And fun is a Must in my book if we want this to be a lifestyle.
Right ?
