This looks amazing @cmhubbard92 😍 I can't think of many more amazing places to get your steps in than here!3 -
So grateful for the support on Friday. Got myself out and moving tonight - quite slow and not very far but I'm pleased I started and I did manage a 2 minute consecutive jog 👍 Hope everyone has had a good weekend!4 -

So true! There was a 2 billion year timeline walk of all the different rocks at the canyon! It was really cool to walk and learn!3 -

So pleased with this past week!
Although I’m not participating in the mini challenge because I’m not exactly tracking my food intake, but I ate well every day except for today (family was over and the dinner meal was heavy). I also went to the gym 5 days this week! And took a walk both days I didn’t get to the gym. Yay!
Hope everyone is starting off the week on the right foot!6 -

Your mile pace is far from being quite slow! In fact, I really am sweating at that pace. You are doing great2 -

Have you tried TENS therapy? Icy Hot makes an inexpensive unit and is the only thing that seems to help. But I have to put it on as soon as I feel my back starting to twinge or it is too late.2 -

@Tracie_Lord, I just wanted to bring this to your attention. Eating in a calorie deficit in the way that MFP is designed, means factoring in your exercise calories and eating (most of) them back.1 -

@Coral333, I'll second that sentiment!!3 -

@cmhubbard92, it's amazing how something so barren can also be so beautiful!! I have never been to the Grand Canyon, but it is on my bucket list. I have been hiking in Red Rock Canyon near Las Vegas, which would be similar geography, just on a smaller scale!3 -

I have one that helps occasionally. But like you said, works best right away. Mostly this just takes time when it’s happened in the past. I over did it chopping wood which caused the muscle spasm, then it pulls my vertebrae out of alignment which causes more uncle spasms. It’s just a matter of not pushing things while muscles and vertebrae get calmed down and aligned.
