May 7 - 12
Monday - 60 minute morning walk, I took my camera with me this morning and enjoyed taking pictures of our canyon view ...
and lots of pretty flowers! Tonight I a push-pull challenge Holly sent me, did them in a superset - alternating between:
Push ups on toes - 6 reps, 9 reps, 7 reps, 7 reps, 10+ reps (I did 11)
Pull ups - 3 chin ups (mine were assisted), one 30 sec power hold, 6-8 assisted pull ups (I did 6), 3-4 5 sec negatives (I did 4) 8-10 assisted reps (I did 10)
Tuesday - morning walk to sunrise point and back. Listened to a talk by President Nelson, April 1989 talk on contention, I liked this statement from Abraham Lincoln that he quoted: “Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention. … Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him.”
Wednesday - Zuzka workout my little sis told me about over marco polo - couldn't find a link for it, but it's pyramid style with reps of 5, 10, 15, 10, 5, for each leg, of the following:
- Jump Lunge and squat
- single leg squat with forward lunge with 2/15lbs
- competition push up with bird dog
- skaters jump side to side with knee drive (Trice said to touch your back heel each jump)
Good sweat! Now it's 8:11, might try to go on a quick 15 min walk?
Thursday - Hour long walk down to Sleepy Hollow, heaven
Friday - 45 min walk to sunrise point, Corey came with me! light sprinkling rain. I think I stretched too hard doing my flow this morning and I can hardly turn my head to the left, my back left shoulder blade area all totally hurts, doh
Saturday - Did this Zuzka workout - 15 minute Fat Burn Series #1, so good, I'm sweaty. I did all of it except I can't do pistol squats yet but I tried to do a one leg forward lunge. I might need to join the ZGYM, cause I love her workouts

Apr 30 - May 5
Monday - raining this morning, so did an indoor workout that I just whipped up. I started at 7:53, finished at 8:58. It took me an hour cause I did it in between interruptions of getting kids off to school and the toddlers waking up.

Wednesday - morning walk, 44 min from 6:21 - 7:05, jogged a little bit on the home stretch, should I try and train for the fun run? I'm wondering if I should go for the trophy in Joseph's honor, he'll be in Guatemala so I thought it might be fun to win it in his name. Did Holly's periscope workout at 3:00 with slight modification - 5 rounds of:

Monday - 50 minute walk this morning = 10 min jogging, 30 min walking, 10 minutes bending over to pick up worms to try and save their lives - It rained last night.

Apr 2 - 7
Monday - 40 min walk/jog outside, probably 2 miles, plus 10 let downs during the day. Kinda did 3 pull ups for my first one when I started, I didn't go all the way down each time, which is why I say "kinda"
Tuesday - last day of spring break for my teens. I'm looking forward to them being back on a schedule. I snoozed in this morning, and it set the mood and direction of my day, aka I didn't workout at all, not even a 5 min flow, lame.
Wednesday - 30 min walk outside this morning, 10 let downs throughout the day, two center planks on hands (aka tall center planks) first for 1:35, second for 1:40, My mood is weak, energy is low, back to trying intermittent fasting today - ate 10 a.m - noon. Weight is back up to 140 from this past week of eating veggies and cookies and cashew nice cream.
Thursday - 40 min walk alone, listening twice to Pres Nelson's "Self Mastery" talk - good stuff! That was from 6:30 - 7:10, then out again at 7:30 with a friend for 40 min again. According to Life 360, I exercised from 6:41 -8:16 and I went 5 miles! I think it was more like 4, but I'll take it. I don't have a fitbit or anything, time to get an app. Nicole and her kids came to visit us today!
Friday - 10 let downs, mostly with wide grip. Was going to go on a walk with Nicole this morning but it was raining :(
Saturday - went to the Draper temple this morning with Nicole. Made goals, going to eat Marilu style and with her timing between meals. Today I did a good job. Active rest. 10 pm right now, should I go do planks?
