This is a photo of the steep path ahead of me at the point that I turned around and headed back home. It’s a 15 minute walk to North Mountain. I clambered up 20 minutes and then headed back down and home.
I’m going to use this Mountain as my personal goal while staying here in Phoenix.
What is your next fitness goal?
To walk up the 20 stairs at work without being out of breath.4 -
Yes x3. Low impact cardio. It felt good to loosen up my sore muscles.
Fitness goals include conquering a handstand and lifting heavier weights. I’ve never pushed myself to surpass deadlifting my body weight but I’m slowly increasing weights so I should get there soon.5 -
Yes x 3 for Wednesday
Under calories again, yay!5 -

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Sadly no. At my am break I got my 15 minutes of elliptical in, intended another 15 at afternoon break, however I fell on the ice going downstairs at lunch.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes, even the handful of peanuts I didn't overlook.

Just finished day 3 of 21 day shred workout. My next fitness goal is to try to get through all 5 rounds of the 21 day post lift cardio program. So far I've gotten through 3 rounds per session.
This is the workout (no rest periods):
10 pushups
20 jumping jacks
10 burpees
30 sec walk
20 lying knee raises
10 jump squats
20 mountain climbers (each leg)
30 sec walk
That is 1 round. Straight from one to the next with no rest between reps or sets. The workout calls for 5-6 rounds. And right after the lifting workout that is 8 sets of 8 of most exercises with 30 sec. between sets. It's brutal, but I'm pushing through.
Here is the workout schedule. Tomorrow upper body and more cardio.

I have been nursing a strained muscle in my back, so I’ve focused on doing the core exercises in the Back Book, (Younger Next Year series). They have been very helpful. I have limited my other exercise to walking, lots of it. We are headed to Hawaii in a week, so I need to get ready for the walking and hiking we will do there.

Another physio appointment...but we do hope it might be the last. Anyway, I'll keep on fighting.6 -
I JUST hit Normal BMI Zone (two weekdays in a row) starting on (Chinese) New Year's Day (Feb 5). So I was "normal by New Years" .... technically ....
Over the course of January, I managed to lower my Body Fat % calculation by 1.5%. I want to keep that trend going for February. To get there, I have to keep making the 10 minute pre-work HIIT a "just how the morning routine works" activity - and keep working on consolidating the after-work 10 minute HIIT into an unthinking "post-work routine action" too.
By the end of February, I want to be into the 138.Xs, well on my way to "Starting Maintenance by end of March" (~6 pounds to go for what will PROBABLY be the mid-point of my 4 or 5 pound maintenance zone.)
OR (if not quite there) MUST be able to point to measurable inches gone / Body Fat % formula giving me progressively lower numbers so that I know SOME transitioning is still happening, without being a slave to numbers on the scale.
The jogging on the mini-trampoline needs to transition to "active rest" and "reward" status, as it is still lots of fun, but far less calorie-burning efficient now that I have shed 42 pounds (since May 2017 ... gone all the way from inside BMI Obese => whole BMI Overweight zone => top edge of BMI Normal). The lighter you are, the fewer calories you burn walking or jogging in place at the same - or even higher - intensity, in the same amount of time ....
On the NSV side, I want to be able to do up my wedding dress before my 31st Anniversary (April 30) and keep right on being able to do it up once a month from that point forward. Only abut 1 inch to go before I can close all the buttons up the back. To get there (and stay there), the Body Fat % has to keep going down .... did I mention making HIIT on my bike a hard-wired part of my day ?
@BMcC9 Wow! Congratulations!!! 🎉
I am going to consider your approach to HIIT. I’ve been thinking I need to let my muscles rest the next day.

My fitness goal? So many both short term and long term. Today for the first time I was really able to push through the pain of a hard ab routine and get to an almost an out of body place and keep going. I want to feel that again.
I’m 65lbs down with 45 to go until goal . For the first time in my entire life I will be at a “normal” BMI. I want that real bad!
Wow!! You are doing great!! Hugs!2 -
