Oh yeah, there's that SORE feeling. I powered through it and did two minutes short of a full hour on the elliptical at home today, but I ache tremendously!
Weight is shifting up, as I knew it would right after getting back to the gym. Drinking water (though probably not enough) to try to get everything flushed out, but TOM is looming, as well. I'm gonna go ice my everything, now... o_o |
but doesn't sore just feel like victory? lol (also, motrin rub, or patches work wonders for spot soreness)my disks get inflated in my back on the right hand side, and i just go to bed with a little heat rub, it's a little smelly but works wonders!

So I have been bad the first two days of February...been under the weather...but I plan on going to the gym tonight!! I just found out I won a Kindle Fire for signing up for a new membership. I guess they entered everyone's name into a drawing, or something like that. I had no clue!! Pretty sweet, huh? That's motivation to get me there, lol.
|
I've done my runs and ride my bike. But I feel I need to add in stuff. I just notice that stationary stuff bores me. I love to move around. Any way I can move around and train other muscle groups than mostly my legs?

noelle: Grats on the Kindle Fire! Those are really nice, my fiancee has one and loves it a ton! Yeah, free stuff is a good motivator!
Everyone else who's been OP - great job! I had my first stumble, yesterday. I had a migraine for most of the afternoon and into the evening, so I did skip the gym because that would just be too punishing. But all is not lost - I am going to do 70 minutes on the elliptical today to make up for it to stay on plan! (Today would have been an "off" day otherwise.) It's nice to be able to move my OFF days around, and I thought for a while and decided I'm fine with that. For me, the scale is NOT moving, but I expected this. TOM will be here any hour/day now (I'm a little irregular so it's hard to know for sure), and that plus the normal water retention when starting a new program will probably have me weighing in a little high for a few more days. Good luck, folks! For those of you who missed a workout already, but planned a rest day on the weekend, consider making it up if you're able to! I bet you'll feel better (at least emotionally) if you do! |

Maybe rock-climbing, philana, if there's a rock-climbing gym in your area? Or some kind of out-door yoga-type thing?
|
Philana - do you have kayaking/canoeing in your area? Great upper body work-out and alot of fun. And you don't have to be very ambidextrous for it. And also agree rock climbing sounds alot of fun.
I'm so mad right now. I have all this motivation to do well in this challenge but everything seems to be against me. All my joints seem to be playing up, so much so it's interfering with my running, been doing so well on that front too. Dunno if i'm gonna make it to my 30DS workout tonight, my knees are killing me. And now I have a cold! I'm gonna push through, I know I have to if I want to see good results at the end of this 90days. Well done everyone to far! keep going! |

i second the Kayaking.. its so much fun.. Ali 87 ..

[QUOTE=curlysue82;4191124]Hi CallMe Traci :) ya its a great post, i think there were 4 of us originally and then it just exploded on the last 2 posts, :)
i seriosuly slacked in the last 2 but the fact its Jan i hope to stick to it this time... best of luck with yours :) Oh man! I knew there was a thread I was missing. Good thing I subscribed to this thread and saw it in my subscriptions. Thanks for clearing that up for me, Curlysue! I went back and updated my workouts since the start of February. I'm so stoked. I changed my nutrition plan and stuck with my workout schedule and have seen a 3 lb weight loss in a week ^^. Good luck to you, too! Let's keep at this. :) |

I've been failing a bit with the exercise, in the week I'm going to America too! I thought I'd be super on it but Sunday I had no excuse - I was just lazy. Monday I literally had no time - work then socialising but today is different because I DO have time so I have to use it to do some Insaniteh! Wednesday and Thursday I should be able to fit in a workout, but Friday might be tricky since I'll be working and then doing last bits of journey preparation. I'm trying not to get too hard on myself, I've lost a lot of weight since the bf last saw me, I'm not going to gain it all in the next week! |
BigChief, Ali & curlysue: thanks for the tips. They are great but not really an option for me. I live in the netherlands, it's one of the dullest places to live for outdoor sports. I've have to travel 3 hours to belgium to find anything that looks like a swirling river or a mountain. We are the flattest country on the planet. You can look it up. LOL
I am looking on craigslist (or the dutch version anyhow) for some cheap inline skates/ skeelers. I think once the snow clears out I'd enjoy skating. Once summer starts I wanna take up bikeracing too. The only thing I am worried about is that my legs are already getting bulky from the running and I just want my legs to start slimming down eventually. They won't with sports that involve using your legs mostly I guess. Haha. First day of TOM, so I am not gonna move a muscle. I allow myself an offday today. Tomorrow I can be active again. |

Call me Traci -3lb is super well done... i had a bad week was not strong enough to say no to the choc biscuits at work.. so will try to be better from tomorrow.. exercise is going ok.. i also find if i have to write it down then i am more accountable.. seeing a load of blanks after the dates makes its very REAL..
absolutely.. lets do this is right want to see a big change after this challenge.. no excuses.. Riestrella Quote:
philana have been to Netherlands Beautiful country.. oh yes and very flat ;) ... thinking about your leg issue.. how about a swimming pool? then mainly do upper body in the water.. can see you predicament tho.. martial arts.. we used to do a serious amount of boxing in karate back in the day a super workout it'd maybe work both equally at the same time.. .. how is everyone else doing?? hope Feb is starting out well, and for those who it hasn't started so well for ,that ye hop back on the wagon :) we'll all get there eventually.. :carrot::carrot::carrot: Here's to fitness and better Energy :carrot::carrot: |
Quote:
Oh well, got it done, that's what counts! |
curlysue - Ugh, HAAAAAAATE it when people bring goodies in to work... Although I'm guilty of it, too. Made a big batch of chocolate chip cookies and sent them with my husband to his job so I wouldn't eat them all.
Telorida - It's good that you did something, even if the intensity wasn't there! On days when I can't get in a proper workout, I always try to at least go for a short walk, just to stay in the habit of exercising. I find that one missed day leads to two missed days leads to taking the month off. I've been doing well so far this month. I've missed a couple runs, mostly due to my husband's work schedule (arrrgh, can't wait until he's off of third shift), but I've been out walking every day, which is something. I always have my 17-lb baby strapped to my chest for the walks, too, which hopefully increases the effects a little. AND I did a real push-up the other day, for the first time in my entire life! Very excited about that. |
okay so, i'm keeping up with my exercise plan, but i feel like it's killing me.
all of a sudden im hot apparently? or boys realized they can do those sports activities that are "girly" with me and not be regarded as weird for doing them with their buddies? seriously, WHAT IS GOING ON. IM TIRED!!! The funny thing is, yes the common answer is "so take the day off, don't make plans, stop doubling up workouts". but i feel so good doing it, the endorphins are amazing. i also find that if i take the day off, and left to my own devices i get bored super quick and eat, which is bad news bears. SO instead, i had what you can regard as "date 1" and "date 2" with candidate 1- seeing fireworks for winterlude opening, and then a doggy walk. and now i'm on what i wouldn't quite classify as "date 2" with potential 'candidate 2'. we went skiing on sunday, and going skating today. ITS ONLY WEDNESDAY!! I've been going to bed at 10 pm (pretty much ready for bed by 8) and waking up naturally between 4 40 and 5 30. i also can't decide if this is good, or bad. |
BigChiefHoho haha good plan, aw stop the cookies are killing me... i was good today though...
i am doing ok exercise wise, i was running last summer tore a muscle prettty bad ( had to swim for nearly 3 months) as cardio would hurt it.. so basically 5 times a week now i can exercise mainly taking Tues Wed Off so now just have to tackle the biscuit saga... stimkovs Quote:
but if you are that exhausted, maybe take a rest day, your muscles will need to recover and catch up... maybe get a good book or come on here and browse, to get engrossed in or a jig-saw basically to keep your hands busy and mind of mindless eating :) i dunno it might help wow on the hotness and the dates.. how exciting.. enjoy every minute, if you do decide to advance with any of the guys the beginning "honeymoon" phase is great.. anyways whatever you decide good luck :) ;) |
BigChiefHoHo and CurlySue - Mmm, sweets. I came home the other night to find a red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting sitting on the kitchen table. I eyed it oh so bad that night ... and allowed myself a cheat day the next day, lol. It's TOM and I have the worst sweet tooth to begin with anyways. Guess it doesn't help that I'm going to be baking cookies from scratch tonight, too, but I figure as long as I portion control and do my workouts today, one or two cookies will be fine. (I'm making Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chunk cookies -- found the recipe on back of my craisins bag).
Stimkovs - As long as your body doesn't feel on the verge of injury, you're doing fine. Don't burn yourself out, though, give your body some rest when possible. Also, good luck with your potentials ;). Make sure they're respecting you. |
curlysue82 - jigsaw puzzle!! that's a phenomenal idea, didn't even think of that. i would totally get like a 1000 peice puzzle!! and i do read a lot, the issue is just that i sleep for 7 hours a day, work for 8 hours a day, it only takes me 15 mins to get to work and 15 mins to get back, that's 15.5 hours a day- that leaves me with a solid 7.5 hours left to my own devices!! i actually read A LOT, the hunchback of notre dame is currently on the go (Best book- EVER). although i AM planning a new hobby- building a library, so i'm going to start buying first/second edition books off ebay in order to do so. i looove old books.
as for the potentials, it's all clean fun. i'm a huge fan of doing cheesy things. SUPER PG. Like, not even pg 13, ahah like last night, post skating- ended up sitting around watching heli-skiing videos and playing with his dog? cool- 20 something? i'm like 12. ha ha. CallmeTracy - first off all, sugar is not the enemy, treats (im moderations) are also not the enemy. Honestly? You want a cookie? do it. DO NOT punish yourself with gym time, but appreciate, and ENJOY said cookie (personally, i would've gone for the cake 100%) but either portion control it and add it into your plan, or be super clean for the next 1-2 days following it. it's all about achieving that balance IMHO. and rest days? those don't exist. i'm actually fine with like a sunday afternoon off to just do laundry/groceries/and cook and stuff. (clearly i have too much energy). simultaneously, yoga is not super streneous to me anymore- i feel like that's my time off. the most exhaustion i feel is actually mental exhaustion as opposed to physical. and as for the potentials- its just fun- plus i find that men are generally more willing to do outdoor activities then women in the winter!! aka go ski! |
Stimkovs - Oh, trust me, I did go for the cake, haha. And the cookies. I don't think sugar is a bad thing. Having a cheat meal/day, what have you, is healthy. It keeps me sane and steers me away from binging. I've actually found since starting my fitness/nutrition plan that I choose sweets less and the good stuff more. Not because I feel forced to or anything, but because I don't have cravings as often. I'm pretty satisfied :). And, oooohhh, skiing. What a workout! I snowboarded for the first time recently. Actually, I fell and got up more than I snowboarded, but hey, I had fun! :P. As for the rest day stuff, if you feel that you're recharged enough on those days, then that's great. Mental exhaustion, though, hm. You may not be looking for advice or solutions to assuage that exhaustion, but if you are, here's my two cents: Take a bubble bath. Seriously. I'm always on the go - always - and don't place "bubble baths" as high priority, BUT ... I did recently and they work. I soaked, read a book, and let go of any worries or small stresses for awhile. Let me tell you ... it was gooooood. Maybe try that right before bed. Hope this helps!
BigChiefHoHo - Congrats on that push-up!!! *Cheers*. Telorida - That's the spirit, girl! Small steps make big differences. I did the P90X Abs Ripper X last night and lemme tell you. It wasn't pretty. I didn't really "do" it, but I did my best and that's what counts. We'll get better with practice and time. As for me, I got my morning walk in today, 45 minutes of beautiful sunshiney weather. I read during that time, too, so I feel good since I was tackling two goals at one time. I have two workouts back-to-back today since I didn't do one yesterday. Then a light cardio/abs day tomorrow. I'll take it very easy tomorrow, depending on how my body feels. Have a wonderful day! EDIT: Scratch that, no back-to-back workouts for me today!! I finished one of the workouts and probably could have done the second one, but that would have been REALLY pushing it. I'll do the second workout tonight. |
i know what you're going through sleep-wise! i also wake up at about 5.20! i usually work out at 6 am and I must say I admire you for staying up until 10! :D I usually fall into my bed at 9 pm, no way I would make it until 9.15 :D
if you need rest, take it. if you like to exercise, rest might mean a little afternoon nap, a nice warm latte (that's rest to me :D), a carb meal (if you're running, especially), perhaps some movies ... basically a non-demanding activity menally and physically. I mean, for me, it works, everyone is special tho :) tiredness can also be a sign of slowed metabolism, and usually it comes with cold feet and hands, puffy face, thinning hair etc. if taht's it, a week off might help or boosting up caffeine, guarana or green tea. i hope i could help a little! ;) great job on your workout progress, by the way!! |

Migraine kicked in again so I did not manage anything yesterday. I have a bit of a sinus thing going on now, too, but I am gonna do an extra long session today, and then one tomorrow (which would normally be an off day) to keep up with my 5-per-week goal. I've decided I have no problem moving one workout to a weekend day if it helps me stick to my goal and makes sense. I would rather do that and feel good about it than make myself exercise when I am genuinely unable (which will just make me hate what I'm doing, rather than learning to love it), or outright skipping it when I'm not well (which doesn't get me any closer to my long-term goals).
curlysue82: Congrats on that healthy dose of WILLPOWER! Mine was at an all-time low, yesterday. I had a chicken cheesesteak for lunch, and didn't even put half of it away for later. I felt crappy and ravenous pretty much the whole day... I think because I had no appetite in the morning and just picked at food. Trying to prevent a repeat, today. CallMeTraci: Two workouts in one day? THAT is dedication! stimkovs: I have to say I am SERIOUSLY jealous of your free time. I've got a 70-minute commute (each way), and I don't function on less than a full 8 hours of sleep. I would LOVE to trade problems with you... I get home around 5pm, get my workout done, have dinner, shower and get ready for the next day, and then I'm lucky if I can spend 45 minutes on the computer checking forums before it's time to get to sleep. BigChiefHoho: Your one pushup is SUPER-AWESOME! I'm still only able to do wall pushups, and even gave myself a sore shoulder the other day doing them... in time... :) Ariannag: Welcome! |
I'm loving this challenge! nearly 2 weeks down, 10 to go and everyone's going strong.
Today I managed my 5km circuit in 37mins. which means I've shaved off 3 minutes in under 2 weeks. Only need to take off 7mins more and 10 weeks to do it in. I seem to have fallen into a nice routine which I originally hadn't planned on but it's nicer this way. I know what I need to do and when which means I can't excuse myself. Hope everyone has a very loving valentines day tomorrow, The only date I have unfortunately is with Jillian :( |
Hey ali87 that's awesome work!!! congrats!!
as for the romantic date, i have a hot sweaty date with my boyfriend the yoga. all else? they can figure it out around my boyfriends schedule. lol! tolerida - i don't actually have any free time, but I operate based on efficiency. I get up at 5 45, leave for work at 6 50. Work 7 15-3 15, do the yoga 4-5 30, get home between 6 30 and 7 15, have dinner, shower, pack/cook my lunch for the next day, do the laundry, maybe watch about 20 minutes of tv and go to bed by 10. |

ugh. Have had the flu since last Friday. No workouts, no attention paid to what little I've eaten, no weigh-ins. Still feeling rundown. I will be back in action soon.
|
Congrats to everyone that is mid-though week 3 and going strong!
Telorida - The flu is the worst. Just worry about taking care of yourself and trying to sleep. No sense in stressing. Just jump back in when you are well. Hopefully you feel better soon! |
