🧘🏼‍♂️🤾🏻‍♀️Getting Sweaty Again: The 3rd Circuit 🚴🏼‍♂️🏋🏼‍♀️

I'm glad I'm here too. You make me feel like this is home.

Home is wherever your people are

I feel the same with you two ladies

Many years ago, I felt this way about life in general. I let all the negatives overwhelm me to the point where I was so severly depressed, I attempted suicide. It's no small miracle that I'm here today to talk about it, but I'm very happy that I am. I wouldn't wish my experiences on anyone, but I also have no regrets. Everything we go through, both good and bad, makes us the people we are right now. You also make an excellent point that we need to exercise our minds. IMHO, everything starts with a healthy mindset.

Birds of a feather and fill your life with positive people

It’s ok to see and process the negative but don’t become over fixated on it because it will become a poison.

Exercise your minds. I guess get a sweaty brain

Thanks for these thoughts Wishingbox! Nice name too

Busy weekend taking care of the 2 youngest.

Thank you for your time... had 24 hrs away from my kids past weekend and my mom was tired too but I'm rested. Looking forward to couple more days away soon!

Love the motivation and positivity here and been moving, just not tons of time for "Lit"ing rn. In the middle of a marathon of 6ks... bikes, runs, walks.. body feels so good with a hot tub today!!

Ooooh it’s chilly out this morning.

Update: that was a cold run. Freezing and sweating at the same time. Pushed passed my record in distance today. I almost stopped at my record but thought it would be worth going further to post back here with a win.

The return interval runs were rough. I felt like a stiff frozen piece of cardboard. Nothing wanted to move.

Yesterdays workout was great.

Busy day today. Hope to get it done late afternoon.

Once I'm over this cold I'll get back to exercising

Headed out after dinner for a scooter ride!! It is a glute burner I'll need my masseuse to work out!

Good morning

Having a hard time getting moving this morning. This is a group hug kind of day. Thankful for this group and your positivity.

Cycling and recovering my form on the bar have taken the limited time I have, but that means I haven't done a set of 100 6-count burpees in a while, and it'd be good to see how I am with those. I'll get it done today. Anyone want to join me? I know how you all love burpees

Thank you for this. I mean that. The brightest light in your darkest hour often comes from knowing you're not alone. I'm glad you made it through, and that you're still here making sure we're not alone either.

You can have my burpees

Sluggish morning. My shins are soar so I’m opting for an afternoon walk at lunch time today instead of a run.

Did some minor am lifting but rest is important too. Hugs all the way around.

 

[Love_Is_Blonde]

It absolutely is a group hug sort of day. I hugged my kids all night last night and this morning.

I hugged mine extra tight, too.

Here I sit at school. It’s extra quiet before students arrive. And I am so angry.

Had PT for my hips yesterday.

Worked out when I got back.

Very little hip pain so I slept well.

Good day!!

Worked out today before I ate lunch - which is my preferred time.

Doing a lot of stretching for my hips.

Aww, you really are super sweet!

But, 100 6-counts was plenty for me, so you may keep them. I could really feel the difference from when I did this regularly. My record was a hair under 9 min, but this... wasn't that
Still, got 'em done, will do 'em again soon.

I managed to get my afternoon walk in. The weather was perfect warm but not too hot. I even jogged for a short stretch.

 

[Wishingbox]

Early morning this time. Heading out for my run. I still feel stiff blah.

Update: ooof that was a rough run. I’m still super stiff (not in that way you perves) so I had do intervals today instead of run the full length. It’s ok I’m taking it easy and may need to rest tomorrow and see if that helps. I’m also going to try and up my water intake throughout the day today.

I’m still glad I went out though. Great way to start the day. Now it’s coffee time ️

What a great thread! My wife has been encouraging me to start running again, and I've been finding 20 reasons to put it off. This find, with all its positivity and encouragement and support, was perfect for me this morning.

I find I most enjoy my exercise when I do it for me. I appreciate my wife’s support but when I do it to feel great in my own body and the energy through the day and that’s my motivation I feel more excited to do it for me.

You should get out there and run and let us know how you feel and your days go.

I didn't do anything yesterday and I don't feel bad about it! I slept almost 11 hours last night so I'm feeling much better now! Taking my workout stuff to work with me today to get it done over an extended break. The weekend is almost here!

Totally deserved. I think I might need to take a rest day or two this weekend. I’ve been pretty consistent but pushing myself. I don’t want to be so warm out I have to take a long break.

Struggling with illness after venturing out for a funeral. I really want to dance but I think I need to revisit my approach. I'm not as I was 10yrs ago, so my approach doesn't work as I get so frustrated that I  used to be able to this.

 

[crashD]

My exercise bands arrived yesterday

Added a couple of band exercises to my normal routine.

Good cardio.

4 days in a row!!

Thank you as always for the morning positivity! I hope everybody has a great Friday!!!
