    My 2021 resolutions. I have one each for body, heart and mind.

    Body: Workout 120 times in 2021 (only got 97 last year)
    Heart: Have 12 date nights with my wife (in addition to Valentine's, Anniversary and her birthday)
    Mind: Finish edits on second novel and submit to a publisher

    To date, my progress:

    Day: 47/365
    Body: 19/120
    Heart: 2/15
    Mind: 5% complete

    Catching up on logs here. Hit the gym day before Valentine's, ripped off a double-header (chest for size, back for power) due to missing almost a week between workouts. Then Valentine's Day I had to shovel snow in temperatures well below zero with wind chills approaching 25F below zero ( -32C for non-Americans). Finally, yesterday before my graveyard shift I lifted for large legs.

    I also took my wife out to dinner, but per my requirements above I need 12 in addition to V-Day, anniversary and bday. So, I've adjusted the desired goal from 12 to 15, just to make data tracking easier.

    We have keys to our new house. Spouse is busy painting the basement ceiling, today the floor, and then framing it up for the Home Gym.

    Daughter and I are painting bedroom walls (just two - feature walls in two bedrooms), building closet organizers, and then helping to build shelving in the basement and the garage.

    The physical move is Feb. 25....and once the furniture/belongings are in, we have to get back to (paid) work and be able to "live" somehow during Covid19 lockdown (yes, in Toronto, we are still in Lockdown and basically have been since mid-December).

    Hello 40+ Club!!! This is the first post of the new thread!!! Hope you like the title!!! Thank Chris (whoheis) or complain if you dont like it. LOL

    For those who would like to join: We are a group of 40+ (40 yrs and older) peope who like to stay healthy by eating clean, exercising, etc. We support each other by providing health info, giving each other ideas on how to be healthy as we get older. Feel free to join the conversation. We usually report our weightloss/ weight gain, inches lost, struggles, goals, etc on Fridays.

    What are your fitness/health goals for this year??? For me, I have started a new lifting program, New Rules of Lifting for Women. I am on my second week. My goal is to become stronger, lose fat, get leaner. I overdid it (not surprising to me) during the Holidays so I have to lose a few pounds and inches...I also want to focus on my nutrition, especially increasing my protein consumption. I am a Zumba Instructor and will of course continue with teaching my 4 classes a week.

    Have a great day!!!!! :flowerforyou:

    I am a online fitness coach.
    Age 44 5'9" currently 165 my goal is to maintain 155 and build muscle.

    I have chronic illnesses that get in my way a LOT such as chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia. Looking for all the inspiration I can get! I'm in! Its there a link to join the group(s)?

    Hey kids, hope all is well.

    Happy Friday.

    I am down 5 pounds. I wasn't even trying. I'll take it.

    Putting a lot of emphasis on legs 🦵and my back.

    One of my 🐕's is slowing down and I know the inevitable is slowly upon me. Been to the vet a lot over the last 2 weeks with him. We are having all kinds of celebrations with him in the meantime.

    Have a great weekend ahead.
