    I did a Cathe F. step and upper body circuit followed by some Amy Bento Ross aerobics this morning. I did some yoga/stretching before dinner.

    I rested today while I watched my swim group paddle out into the wild blue yonder... resting despite wanting to swim... I had my surf board with me too, but was tired so I didn't surf either. That's actually an accomplishment for me :smile: I listened to what my body needed, relaxed and prepped food for the gang and relaxed at the ocean front while waiting for them. That was my "work" out today.

    Sunday -active rest today and I supported a new runner through a 2km run and c25k group. Extremely easy pace, in fact I actually found it quite challenging to run so much slower than my usual pace.

    Started 21 day fix with beachbody today. Getting used to working out as a diabetic :/ major sugar jump but hopefully that settled when my body stops acting like exercise is an attack 😂

    PR’d in my 10K race today 56:25. Definitely much faster pace then I train. It actually felt really good and last mile was the fastest. Rest day tomorrow.

    And back from my trip. Somehow, 10lbs down. Not from trying.

    A few jogs for a few miles, 5+ miles hiking, trail running, etc.

    Got back much later than expected so gym schedule might get pushed a day this week.

    Hope everyone else had a good time. Good luck to everyone!

    Yesterday's workout was a quick 5 minutes of resistance training... I'm re-starting fitness (sorta), and starting small. Today will be walking and more "30-days" challenges for resistance.

    Finally back at it today. Been a long week and a half taking off with my under arm cyst -- not staph, though, which is great.

    10K row (machine) today on the outside deck. 65 degrees and sunny looking up at Mt Lemmon, which is covered in snow at the moment and just beautiful. First 5K was @ 2:16 or so. Last 5K was blah and broken up into pieces, just getting to 10K.

    Lots of spinning. Pretty much every day since last post here. High intensity intervals Sunday. Endurance ride Monday. Active recovery this am for 60 minutes plus yoga.

    Weight on track with pre Thanksgiving so maintained vs my usual +5.

    I kept the damage to the actual day and fasted pre meal. But, did not hold back (more turkey please, more pie please, etc.) and took a 2 day break from my (no) alcohol diet. Which was fantastic.

    Did manage to get a lot of exercise though as well.

    Back to it!

    Same ol' thing -- 30 minutes solid on the rower @ 2:15 pace, then 25 on the Air Bike. Still getting used to the routine again. Have had to go really easy in the bike the last two days. Still getting reacclimated after taking over a week off.

    Last strength training class of the term. 5 sets of 5x80lb goblet squats then OHP and picking apart my power clean form (which fell apart).

    Early afternoon erging because I hate doing workouts that are based on meters (as opposed to time) with other people. 4x1,500m/5min rest. The goal split was 5k or under. For me what I decided that would be is 2:00 or under. My actual average split across the 4 intervals was 1:58.9.

    Tonight I'm planning on going to evening erg practice but I'm going to hop on one of the bikeergs which will be my first time using one. This is will be the first time in a little under a year that I've done two a day aerobic workouts. We'll see how this evening goes (I did eat a bowl of mostly homemade miso ramen with a chicken thigh as a late lunch just now and dinner will involve a lot of protein and probably a handful of fries. I'll be getting beet salad with steak added and I'm assuming at least two people will order rather large bowls fries fore sharing.

    9,095 rowing machine meters, spread over 4 x 2k, 2' off/CD, in 3 separate sessions :lol: (stupid logistics). 2:34.5@ 22 and 2:34.1@21 before breakfast; 2:29.7@23 early afternoon; 2:23.4 at 22 right before bed (that won't go well ;) ). Extra meters are the CD +row-in/out, of course.

    Go with the "just strong even" ;) Some of the people who I row with who are in their 50s crush my erg scores.

    Team erg workout consisted of me doing 65 min on the bike erg while most people were doing the workout I did this afternoon. My first reaction was, "wow this is loud - smooth but louder than I'm used to". Spent the first 30 min working hard and the last 35 min chatting with a friend who I guess had planned on warming up on the erg and then going to the bike.

    The chatting wasn't original in the plans, but spending the last half an hour doing an easy spin was so it worked out and I wasn't alone in the corner :)

    I went to Mixed Martial Arts class today (I study Tang Soo Do, Kickboxing, Brazilian Jui-Jitsu, and boxing there), 45 minutes of high-intensity cardio! May be intense but it's worth the pain and sweat! :smiley:
