    Happy Friday, all.

    Enjoyed my first session back with the trainer after taking 3 months off. We're beginning the offseason work on correcting my posture imbalances and then strengthening the posterior chain muscle groups for next season.

    Today's lower temps and humidity are a big relief around here. I'm really looking forward to a bike ride tomorrow and then a swim/run on Sunday.

    Hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!


    Off season from what?

    Just finished an 8 month training block that prepared me for the Ironman race at Mont Tremblant on August 19th. Now that its over, I'm winding down and getting back to basics in the gym. :)

    morning everyone. I'm here trying to get rid of the weight I gained through menopause. Any tips :)

    No tips really, just empathy. It's tough. I always had the great metabolism, might put on some weight but always able to lose it pretty easily. Now though, ugh. I'll echo some of the above advice about limiting calories, but mostly just wanted to say you're not alone.

    Make it a great day!

    Happy birthday!

    Good morning peeps. Here's hoping for a relaxing Saturday. I'm going to enjoy some outside time today I think. Will be winter before we know it. 😁

    What a way to start off a long weekend, leg workout 😡. At least the workout's done and can start enjoying a beautiful day. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

    Sounds like a tough one!

    Exactly, have a great weekend.

    Sunday at work once more but the pace is carrying on, still trying to shift weight and get healthier in the bargain. A nice long stroll around the car park after lunch is about all I will get in today in regards to exercise but tomorrow back into the gym once more I shall go :):)

    Happy almost end of summer!
    It's a hot one here. My boy has decided to get his sleep in now. I better go wake him up so we can get out and enjoy the sun and heat.
    I hope all the middle agers have had a great summer and are looking forward to the next part of the year

    I started the day with a swim and a trail run. No pacing, just a casual social event with my training partners. My wife and I will do some kayaking this afternoon, since its going to get warm and humid.

    Have a great day, all!
