Re: May fitness
Another rest day on Tuesday. Couldn’t be bothered after a massive day at work. Hamstrings and glutes this morning.

Re: May fitness
RPM 89 on Monday, a nearly 7km walk last night and we're possibly doing RPM again tonight.
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

Re: May fitness
I've got BodyPump at lunchtime for the first time in like 12 days (due to being away or class cancellations) and I'm part dreading and part looking forward to it. The dread is mainly for the inevitable DOMS, to be fair.

Re: May fitness
Good luck with the DOMs Hippy!
Have you started the LM boot camp now, Pip?
It was full body workout here today. Hard going!

I’ve not had time yet. I went to Dance Step tonight instead. I can’t start until Saturday really.

Re: May fitness
My DOMS today are less bad than last time, but still noticeable. I have yoga and Pilates classes tonight which will hopefully help to lengthen some muscles out.

Re: May fitness
Shoulders today (my favourite body part to work on as they feature high on my goals!) followed by a quick banded glute workout.

Re: May fitness
Are you doing Caroline Girvan's workouts, Est? Are you doing one programme in particular? The woman is just so hardcore.
I'm doing a lot of zumbaaaa on my Switch which is better than nothing! I'd like to start swimming again next week but I cannot find a well-fitting costume for love nor money.

Re: May fitness
Yep, Caroline Girvan. I’m doing Epic Endgame but skipping the HIIT stuff. She’s amazing and total arm goals. I can’t believe she makes all that stuff available for free.

Re: May fitness
Pilates last night involved plank walkouts the length of the village hall. I’m expecting to feel that later.

Re: May fitness
That sounds truly hideous, Pip! I hope you can still move later.
Nice 5 mile run in the sun before work this morning - tough to get any miles in on Weds/Thursday due to work, so I’m throwing in some catch up walks too.

Re: May fitness
I compounded it by going to Pump & Balance this morning. I’ve cancelled Kettlebells this evening though.
It’s a lovely day to be out!

Re: May fitness
My quads are still killing from Pump on Weds so I've cancelled Pump tonight. I think I'll still go to Dance for a leap about.

Re: May fitness
I started back swimming this week and have realised how much I have missed it. So swimming three mornings, around 1km each morning. Monday we did RMP 90 and last night I walked with D.
I'm also walking to and from the pool so that's about 3km per day extra walking.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

Re: May fitness
I did Pump & Balance this morning but cancelled kettlebells due to having my hair done this afternoon. As it is, I didn’t have my roots done proper so don’t have the horrible scalp dye line, but I got it straightened so would like to preserve the blow dry.
I think I’ve totally missed LMOD Bootcamp. I overestimated how much free time I’d have with C being away.

Re: May fitness
1km swim and RPM 91 yesterday along with the walks to and from the gym.
1km swim this morning and I think I need to get out and run tonight. If not, I'll walk.

Re: May fitness
Quads and calves today. Strava helpfully told me it was harder than my usual effort. Like I hadn’t noticed

Re: May fitness
Just over 5km run/walk on Tuesday.
1km swim and RPM yesterday. Also did a 20 minutes arms session in the gym. I am so weak
1km swim this morning and either a run or walk tonight.
