  1. You had a great month, Engie! I have not tried a fun new workout, I'm same old same old.

  2. I love the variety in your workouts! My back has been bothering me recently when I do strength training, so I'm taking a break and turning to pilates and barre. The best workout I did recently was this barre workout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pGk9KP4fB0

    This pilates workout was also pretty good, but I'd describe it as more gentle than intermediate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TXj_U23bPs

  3. I go for daily walks and that is fun, but nothing formal like you do. Good for you.

  4. That is a really lovely workout space in that top photo. Is that a place on campus that you visit during the work day? I love that you can work workouts into the day on your college campus. I've not tried a new workout. I usually use the videos taped over the pandemic and posted on FB by my fav workout instructor, but I have tried a video that I've never done before, which was fun. (there are literally hundreds of videos posted and I usually do the same favs). My fav class was the one for women over 40. Sounds like a fun target group.

  5. I have not tried a fun new workout, unless you count the idiotic adventure I ended up on with Lucy - and that was not fun. Have not decided if I will blog about it.

  6. Your consistency is so impressive!! I am trying a 3x a week upper body program this month to help get my arms ready for crutches haha sigh. I am really enjoying not having to think about what to do during my workout time (I lose my workout opportunities to analysis paralysis sometimes) and am making a mental note to remember this when I can do more!

  7. Nice job- and I checked out a couple of those strength videos you linked to (I mean- I didn't DO them, I just looked at them, lol.) I'm always looking to mix things up, strength-wise. I guess the only new (new-old?) thing for me is I got out my pull up bar again, so I can torture myself for a few weeks until I give up.
