Hip thrusts and split squats. Can’t seems to get heavy hip thrusts down, something always feels awkward! And split squats...I’m sure it’s form but anything heavy kills my knees ☹️

Lifting and spinning

I can’t speak to the actual bike, but I have a Spin bike and downloaded the peloton app while quarantined. Honestly, it’s terrible for spin classes IMO. The all instructors talk during the entire ride and I couldn’t hear the music at all. And it wasn’t even really instruction talk, it’s like they all want to be famous or…

Nike training app is offering premium videos for free for now. Can filter based on what type of workout you want. Also someone mentioned pelonton. Free for a while and many other options on top of their spin classes. Fitbod is a free app you can filter for equipment you have or simply all body weight. They are not videos…

Haha pretty much this. 1x not toooo bad but after the 5th, I hated all of it. Especially that “burning ring of fire” mentioned above 🔥 But NOtHINg beats holding that sweet babe for the first time. Makes it all worth it IMO

Been working out at home doing various body weight, dumbbell and banded weight training. I’m lucky enough to have a spin bike from years ago so I’ve been getting some decent workouts in. I soooo miss my barbell tho. I almost panic bought a rack, bumper plates and an Olympic bar. But decided to save that money because…

My gym is technically a community center that is owned by the city. The governor of my state declared no gatherings of over 100 people (some exclusions) but its likely my gym will be closed as of tomorrow. Super bummed. Highly considering setting up a home gym with bumper plates, rack etc. I honestly think I’ll feel pretty…

Ah that’s such a bummer. We have a prepaid Disneyland trip planned for our 4 kids over Easter. I’m pretty positive we aren’t going and also pretty positive that the Hilton Hotel we booked won’t be refunding our hefty 2 room fee :( astoundingly, the airlines have been very accommodating. But you’re right, money is money but…

1. Anxiety relief 2. Appreciation for how strong my body is 3. I get to listen to music that I usually wouldn’t around my family 😊

Gym. Too many kids and distractions at home. My gym has a nice weight room with lots of goodies, for a really low yearly price, so it’s a no brainer for me.

PHUL (4 day upper lower split) plus 2 days of spinning

100% this

Yes music is a must for me! I use amazon music cuz my gym has decent WiFi. No playlists, just a lot of saved and favorite stations, artists, and albums on the app. I love it!

I have a huge range...Walmart to lulu. Depends on what the workout is too. My expensive white lulu top is not my first choice for low bar squat day cuz the barbells at my gym are gross. Also, for spinning, my cheap old navy or Walmart sports bras will not work! Need the Victoria sport or under Armour compression. But all…

I also lose in a whoosh...I’ll have little fluctuations over time but then a big 2-4 lb loss. It’s frustrating, but I’ve figured out this is how it works for me. Some people may confuse this trend as a plateau, but I’ve been tracking and losing weight for years ( 5 pregnancies in 9 years) so I understand my body.

Yes girl!!!! U rock :) So ridiculous that people called u disgusting 🙄🙄 but I’m so happy for u that u feel great, and it shows!!!

I have a spin bike and bought in when I lived on the 12th floor of a high rise. Its quiet and easy to move (small wheels on front of bike) but it is pretty big and doesn’t fold so it will take up a good amount of space.

Absolutely unbelievable! Wowza. Great great job. You look fantastic

Spin bike

This question is stressing me out....I can’t decide. A gooood cakey donut is so good. But the Dunkin’ variety, pass. But....a yummy fresh chewy bagel is EVERYTHING, Can’t choose

Yes the dry shampoo is a great tip if your hair gets extra sweaty! Also, more deodorant after wipe down :)

Ok so what about body wipes? So instead of the time to shower, before you put your work clothes back on, you use the full body wipes. I had to do that once in a pinch when I didn’t have access to a shower. I worked out and had to get changed right afterward. Not ideal, but could help cool you off and feel better about…

135 bench Lean enough to finally do pull ups Keep my back healthy so I can grow my squat and dead back up. And, why not add in to get my average watts per spin class to over 250...this one may be a stretch.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I got 130lbs on my bench. A well respected strongman at my gym convinced me to test my strength one day and I was shocked I pushed it once! Going to get the big plates this year 💪🏻💪🏻

^this.

I lift at the gym 4x per week followed by cardio and then have 2 dedicated cardio days, usually spinning

I think having a routine is key. Like many posts above, I set out my clothes and gym shoes the night before. Pack anything I need for the workout in my gym bag. In the morning, I wake up usually without an alarm (still set one just in case), go downstairs (4 sleeping kids and hubby upstairs) and get changed, brush teeth,…

Get it girl 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
