Everyone has to attend a training session before he can be admitted.

The gym closest to me isn't the one I really want to join but I might.

All I can do here at home is cardio.

I'm jealous of all you people doing weights.

What about buying weights for the home? I have a couple of 5 lb weights and they're great to hold/lift when you're going at home exercises like squats or lunges! You can get some pretty nice ones from Target too!

I do have some little 5lb and 10 lb weights yep, but that's it

I use them with beach body workouts and stuff

I don't know if I could EVER do one

*high five*

At one point I could do sit ups by hanging from my legs. Now I refuse to do normal ones and rather nap..

Woo!

I'm going to a party tonight. I usually end up not drinking at parties so I can drive us home afterwards, but I'm definetly having a few beers tonight.

Tonight will basically cancel out the 3 hour walk I went on today.

I did go to the gym three times this week though so I've kept that up. My shoulders, chest, and arms are starting to look pretty tight again. If I could just focus on doing abs a couple of times a week I'd be doing well.

If you alternate weight day, cardio day, weight, cardio... you could try to add them to cardio days. I used to do them on leg day, which worked ok. I'm trying to get back in shape now. I'm doing ok, but my equipment is limited.

I'm having a lot of trouble with my form during triangle pose.

Yeah I tried those. Not sure if the extended side angles are more challenging.

I have a spring break road trip coming up which means eating on the road/being crammed in a car for hours at a time.

I'll definitely do some hiking once I get to where I'm going, but I'm also contemplating bringing a five lb weight so I can work on arms in the car 😂

Made lunch for tomorrow's long work day also, pb&j and fruit.

Just need another 2,000 steps today.

Spent the rest of the week, including today sick. We'll try again on Monday. :(
