https://greatist.com/move/plank-variations-for-core-strength. I was wrong, it’s 47 plank variations!! 🥰🥰🥰

Yes you could definitely do them at the park or gym! (I'm jealous you live some place you'd want to be outside in January! lol) I like Natalie Jill Fit, but really I just do pretty standard things for the strength training. Weighted squats and lunges for lower body, bicep curls, tricep dips, pushups, overhead presses, etc.…

Hi Eric! I teach a HiiT cardio/strength training class and I use an app called Interval Timer. You can create your sets any way you like! I do a 1 minute jogging warmup, then 12 thirty second blocks of moderate to heavy cardio drills (6 minutes). Then the bulk of the class is divided up by muscle groups: Legs, Upper body,…

Thanks for posting this! I try to keep up my lifting days too (just because I know it's important for me to not lose muscle mass) but I agree... it is disappointing to work so hard for an hour and not see a big calorie burn on the fitness tracker. (Apple Watch in my case.)
-
EXACTLY! I would never pay for premium for an app that doesn't work on it's basic level. Frustrating.
-
I think I hated running because i thought I was bad at it, but now that I'm getting better, I'm kind of enjoying it! And i do tons of other kinds of workouts... I'm a fitness instructor who teaches WERQ (hip hop dance,) HiiT, and I am training for Les Mills Body Combat. I also do Body Pump and Yoga. So I know there are…

Haven’t had a period in 14 years. 😅 So... quite late I guess??
-
Thank you Lynney!! I get hyper-focused. I want to be 106. Not 105 and not 107. 😂😜🤓
-
Lol I don’t know why I didn’t think about that... I get so wrapped up in numbers... I knew that but I kinda didn’t think of it. Duhhh and thank you. Lol
-
Thank you, I will look at those threads. I use my Apple Watch to tell me what I burned after each workout. I don’t know how accurate it is... it definitely tells me I burned less than my Garmin VivoFit used to report. I’d rather err on the side of under-reporting exercise and over-reporting food.
-
I only track water because I want it within a certain range. If I’m dehydrated it massively affects my performance in the classes I teach.
-
At first I was losing a pound per day! Then it evened out to maybe a pound or 2 per week.
-
That’s true. No I’m sure I didn’t consume anywhere near that much. I do have a scale that supposedly measures water, fat and muscle (sensors I stand on) ... I don’t know how accurate it is but I try to weigh first thing every day and pay attention to water and muscle.
-
I did put on a pound over the weekend... I think I’m probably obsessing when I shouldn’t be. But my eating got really out of control this past summer so I just wanna keep a lid on things! Thank you, I will change my settings to maintenance.
-
47, feel free to add! I'm in much better shape now than I was 20 years ago... lol

I need more friends who actually post and comment pleeeease!

Take a nap with my cat 😂

Milwaukee!! Woot!!
-
Yes please!!! I need all the tough love encouragement I can get!
-
I love Les Mills Body Pump! Actually every Les Mills workout. They are safe, backed by tons of expert research, and very effective.
-
Norwex Odor Eliminator. Best stuff there is!!
-
Love it! I’m mainly looking for songs to play during HiiT or on the treadmill.
-
Awesome thank you!!! Mine are quite eclectic as well. I love hip hop, classic rock, alternative... pretty much everything except country and most top 40 mainstream garbage. 😜
-
This is really encouraging for me!! I’ve been so frustrated that other people say they burned 600 calories in a class that I have also done... and I only burn 400?? I wondered how that could be possible when I’m going all out and keeping my hr 160-180... and as far as I can tell working just as hard if not harder. The…

Pelvic Floor exercise
-
1.) watch sugar. You can be under your calories, but sugar (especially alcohol) will collect fat around the midsection. 2.) Two words: pelvic floor!!! Look up some pelvic floor exercises. I had to do them for physical therapy because I fractured my L5 vertebrae, and they are totally the unsung heroes of core strength and…

LOVE Les Mills Body Pump. Kicks my *kitten* every. Single. Day.
-
LOVE this!!! I have so much more respect for adults overcoming age/injury barriers than a 20 year old who’s been naturally skinny their whole life. I’ve done personal training and I’d rather train a 50 year old than a 20 year old, just saying. The 20-something’s I worked with always took the modifications, short-cuts, and…

Add me! I need some estrogen in my friends list.
