  • I started this morning with a 1 Mile walk with Leslie and the crew. Then followed that up with a gentle 10 minute walk with Jules from Improved Fitness. Ryan suffered a minor set back from last weeks bike ride but with the heat he stayed inside and recovered. He's doing better now, sadly our yard isn't. 😂 Today, I have 1…
  • 20 min with Fit by Mik this morning. We did a lot of squats in this one. I'm starting to be able to go up in weight with some of the movements. 20 minutes was all I had in me this morning b/c it's already so hot out. Even with the air on and fans going I was pretty sweaty by the end. We'll be hiding inside most of the day.…
  • Stength training from Improved Health this morning which included a few rounds of squats with weights. Strength trainin is never the calorie burn like the walking workouts but I still get sweat going. Or maybe it was too warm in the den this morning. They've issues a heat advisory for Thursday and I told Ryan he wasn't…
  • I made good on my promise to myself and did 15 minutes of arm traing with Fit by Mik. I followed that up with 10 minute with Improved Health. We are looking at a string of hot and humid days again. High 80s & 90s. They are saying is the Corn sweats. I think it's just July in Michigan. Ryan does not seem to be having a bad…
  • July Goals Miles Tracked: 46 / 81 Apple Challenge: walk or run 2.5 miles on 14 differnt days. 9 / 14 I've had a bussy weekend. Friday at the trail. Saturday girl time with a friend. Sunday the museum with another friend to see the updated planetarium and the Shark exhibit. Today, is my son's 30th Bday. I'm all little off…
  • Yesterday was very exciting, after much care & planning Ry & I went to our favorite outdoor tail. I walked and he was ablt to ride his bike. He was able to what used to be his normal route but at a much slower rate. Maybe off by 15-20 min. Now we wait to see how his body responds in the next 48-72 hours. 🤞🏻 The trail is…
  • A cold front came through and brought clear air and cooler temps. I started the day with a walk in the park and almost felt like I could have used a jacket. The sun returns tomorrow and we'll be back in to seasonal 80s. I'm trying to do my best to stay away from Soda Pop and fast food again. Fringer crossed that I can…
  • 15 minutes with Leslie ( I think from Belly Burn DVD) & 5 min Barre Arms with FitbyMik. Last day of bad air here and I'm ready for it to leave. I made a new loaf of bread and will try making french toast for Ry, with it. @lclark04957 I feel like I'm in constant damage control with my diet. @Elfirose33 Nice job getting back…
  • Fit with Mik this morning for some upper body strengthening. I think I can see a little muscle starting to build out. 😀 @megd44 We have the same air quality & humidity down here. Looking forward to it moving out in the next day or so. @lclark04957 I hope you can flush out the after effcts of the bad food. Ry has arthritis…
  • July Goals Miles Tracked: 30 / 81 Apple Challenge: walk or run 2.5 miles on 14 different days. 5/14 I was a little sluggish this weekend but made up for it today with a 1 Mile walk in the Park before the wildfire smoke pushes back in. I'm hoping to fit an arm workout later today. @zichab Food shopping is a joy and a pain…
  • A couple days of rest was just what I needed. Woke up this morning ready to go, do I did. 15 minute Arms & Abs with Fit by Mik followed by 10 minutes Gentle walk with Improved Health. Now I'm sipping some freshly brewed tea and scrolling the social accounts. Yesterday, I made some GF bread using the imported flour blend…
  • @zichab I'm so glad you found the time to check in here. Keto and Mediterranean is a lot to learn for the kitchen. I'm glad you and Dennis have some help right now on getting things ready. I'm taking a rest day unless you count the 5 squats I did on the Total gym.
  • I did a mile around the farm tonight. The sun was still a bit strong so I called it good there.
  • I ended yesterday in bed early with a rare migraine. I felt better this morning but decided to wait on the workout. 1 Mile walk in the Park this evening workout out nicely.
  • July Goals Miles Tracked: 13 / 81 Apple Challenge: walk or run 2.5 miles on 14 different days. 2/14 This morning I dragged myself out of bed and into the den for a morning workout. Started with 15 minutes Standing Arms with Fit by Mik and then 1 Happy Mile with Leslie. I feel pretty good and now can focus on getting back…
  • After a few much needed rest days I think I'll be ready to get back on the horse in the morning. We're looking towards more seasonable temps this week. Ry has had a few active days around the house. We'll see if he has a set back this week or not. Last night, I made Beef Ribs in the oven and given all the limitations I…
  • I think today might be a rest day. I had a bunch of earrands this morning. The heat is back on and we'll be near 90+ the next couple of days. I hope everyone have a good holiday this weekend.
  • I woke up this morning and wasn't sure what I would do. I chose a 20 Min Energetic Walk from Improved Health. Honestly, I chose it because it was the 1st thing I saw on YouTube. My shoulders are still burning from yesterday and this morning workout had my arms constantly going too. I'm adding "don't let me arms fall off"…
  • July Goals Miles Tracked: 81 Apple Challenge: walk or run 2.5 miles on 14 differnt days. My Apple challenge is oddly specific. 😂 I didn't look to see what my challenge was before I got my workout in. 15min with Jessica Smith's Walk On, 6 Mile mix. I did the Upper body Mix. I logged it through my watch as Functional…
  • I sneaked in a short slow walk just to finish off my rings for the day. Such an amazing job this month by everyone. I can't wait to see what July brings us.
  • I wanted to take it easy this morning. 5min warm and up & 10 min walk with Leslie follwed with an Improved Health walk that I used as a cool down. Today, should be must better on the weather front. It's a 1 day reprieve as we swing back into 90 somthine tomorrow. but we'll take it. Son mowed yesterday and we can finally…
  • Happy Friday!!! It's the last weekend of June. 😳 Where did the month go?? I focused on Arms today. 10 m inutes with Jessica Smith & 10 minutes with Fit by Mik this morning. I got Ryan to PT yesterday and he's waiting for the weather to be more temperature friendly so he can head out on his bike. He did take a test ride…
  • Last night, I pampered my feet and calves with a good go-over with the massage gun. This morning they rewarded me with 2 miles of Burn Body Fat from Leslie. Plus a cool down with Improved Health. @zichab That was so rude of Vegas to treat you that way. I know you'll power back after you take a couple of healing days.…
  • I've been on the go since 7:30 this morning so I'm taking a rest day. I'll see if I get a 2nd wind for some arm work but it's been a week already. I cleaned up the den enough that I was able to unfold the Total Gym that we have. Mainly for Ryan to try to use but if it's out I might as well give it a go. I'll have to page…
  • Popping back in with a night time report. I did a peppy 50s & 60s Music walk with Improved Health. I feel like I'm building up my stamina this month. I hope that I can swing some 2-mile walks with Leslies and maybe a step routine with Jenny Ford or Jessica Smith I remembered I bought some Good Culture cottage cheese so a…
  • I was able to eek out some strength training last night, & that looks like what I'll be doing again today. I had to drop off my car for it's "spa" day and got some quality time/coffee with a friend who was able to bring me back home. The county/state is repaving a major street in my area and I'm working through the…
  • June Goals Mileage Tacked: 60 / 75 Apple Challenge: Close my exercise ring 17 times. 17 /17 🥳 Early morning Dr appointment has me feeling liek I'm behind in my day and it's varely 11 AM. I'll try and get some sort of workout tonight.
  • Sunday morning I took a gentle walk wit Improved Health and followed that up with some Arm work. Yesterday, we beat the heat by staying mostly in the basement office. I had to work on 3 computers anyway so that worked out well. The heat was offset a bit with a good amount of wind but today doesn't look like we'll get the…
  • Good Morning! I started the day with 20 minutes from Improved Health. My whole body was in constant movement today. Today is the Grand Rapids Gran Fondo. The 40—and 80-mile course goes right in front of my house, so the first few hours of the morning are a stream of bicycles. It's neat to see the variety of bikes. Speaking…
  • I woke up to some achy feet. I pampered them this morning with the massage gun, & gave them a rest for most of the day. Tonight, they let me walk in the park for 1.5 miles. I came back and treated myself to a popsicle. We're under a Heat Advisory until at least Tuesday. Temps in the 90s and heat index in the 100s. This is…
