Took me an hour to do seven minutes of TBC this morning while my kids were awake. Finally gave up, did it after the kids were in bed tonight. My thermostat says 85*, it's been in the hundreds outside and we don't have AC. Hopefully a cold shower will help me cool down enough to sleep!

Took two days off in the middle of the week due to family plans. My husband finished school last week, and I start on Monday. We had a week 'break' so we went to the beach and will be helping a friend prep her house to sell. But back to it today. Lower focus. Ouch. Then I hauled shelves up and down a ladder to the attic…

'I just need an oblique knee push-up!' oh...is that all, Shaun T? I'm doing much better about trying the non modified exercises, like the 180* squat, but I don't see me doing an oblique knee push-up anytume soon. :-) It's great to see so many people here! Will catch up soon.

Cardio today. Uninterrupted, thankfully! I'll be watching my friends kids tomorrow, it's an hour drive each way to her house. Two hours of driving, six kids six and under all day, and it's supposed to be the double day. It probably will get pushed to Saturday. :-/

Hollie, sometimes we all need a reminder. Was your attitude better your next workout? Lovelyfe, welcome to the thread! You may not have made it all the way through today, but you tried. Just keep at it! Silverbullets, congrats on finishing beta!! Will you go on to gamma? Sapphire, still around? My workout today was my most…

Hollie, that's great! Mimi, 3 miles every night is dedication. I bet it relieves a lot of stress. Week 3, day two in the books. Speed 1.0. I worked this morning, watching kids this afternoon, hosting book club tonight. Forced myself to do it during naptime. Glad I didn't come up with excuses.

Weekend off because I don't do the stretching. This morning, total body circuit, felt great. This is the most consistent I've ever been with an exercise program, besides lifting in the military. I've got ingredients for veggie fruit smoothies for breakfasts this week. Step one to cleaning up my eating.

I got up early to try and do the double day. My kids woke up with fifteen minutes left of the second. It took me an hour of a couple minutes here, five minutes there, but I finally finished it.
-
Hollie, keep working and you'll get there!
-
Sapphire, when do you workout? With kids and work and the rest of life, do you wake up extra early? You're going to feel great after the double tomorrow!
-
And done with cardio. Added some hand weights and worked a little bit after. I miss lifting.
-
Insert excuses for missed workout yesterday. Going to do post here that I'm doing today's workout. That means I have to, right?
-
Great job, sapphire! I had a good workout too. Full body sweat. Tried a few moves unmodified, like the 180 squats. Felt ok. Hollie, welcome! You're a week behind us. Hope you keep checking in. Guys, I'm such a lemon. Some days I feel it more than others. No thyroid function and scoliosis top the list. But today I really…

Did cardio today. Between kids interrupting sleep last night and my exercise this morning, I totally half assed it. I am also terrible about the last 2-3 minutes. Instead of pushing, I think about how much I've already done, and that's a good enough effort. I definitely need to work on my mental effort more!
-
Cardio done. I'm feeling alright! Not too sore. Knees are holding up well. How about you? Have you done any other at home programs, beachbody or otherwise?
-
Great job Sapphire! We're on the same day. :-) I only had time for one of those so I chose lower focus. I'll do cardio tomorrow. Kerri, our kids are the same distance in ages. I just now feel like I have a handle on them all day long, and for the most part I enjoy them. A year ago...not so much.
-
Thanks for the encouragement! I finished day 4 today. Maybe because my shoulders aren't strong enough for all the planks, but I didn't feel like ab intervals was that great of a workout. I'll keep working at it and hopefully get better. Kerri, how old are your kids? Mine are 2 & 4. The four year old has started running…
-
Day two complete. I had nearly finished alpha on my last attempt at T25, so it's hard mentally to start over.

Hi all! I'm finally tired of waiting for friends in real life to become good accountability/workout partners. Hoping this thread will keep me on track. I'm 30, female, live in Oregon. Two kids. Former military. I LOVE lifting, but haven't been able to since kids. We're in a tiny place with no room for weights, no chance to…
