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

[sallysparrow23]

How's it going sweaty friends?

Today I completed day 14 of the wall sit challenge (2 minutes). It was tough but doable! How is everyone else doing with it?

Yesterday I went trail skating and 2 miles in I wiped out and banged up my elbow quite a bit. It is fine, but there is a large cut, road rash, and bruising, so that's fun. I got another 4 miles in before calling it quits. I was hoping for 10 but I can save that for another day.

I'm doing a cardio workout this evening after having sat in a car most of the day today.

Happy sweating!

Went for a three mile trail hike this afternoon to enjoy the leaves.
Haven’t done the wall sit challenge in a couple days but might shoot for 2 minutes tonight. That feels like an eternity.
I’ve put on some weight this year and have been working to get it back off again.

The wall sit challenge felt so good until today it went back down to 20 seconds which was really nice, but then it jumped up higher again and that just felt like cruel and unusual punishment

I recently got the pool pass, and I'm going to try and wake up at 5:30 to make it for a 6:00 a.m. swim. We will see how happy I am when my alarm goes off

Day 15 wall sit (2:10)

Wall sits seem easier while doing them with a friend.

Derby practice tonight so hydrating today until then.

Yeah, exercising is always easier with someone.

When I was in physical therapy for my knee surgery (miniscus repair), they had me doing wall sits. He told me there was a teenage girl who came to them, she was a cheerleader or gymnast or such, and she would literally do her reading homework while wall sitting, she could got 30+ minutes just like it was a chair

I’m shaking like a leaf past 1:15

 

[sallysparrow23]

Happy Friday! I doubled up wall sits yesterday because I missed a day. 2:20 and 2:30... It's starting to get a little rough but I'm proud that I've held them all so far! 2:40 today for day 19 and a core workout tonight. If I'm motivated I'll go skating this evening. Happy sweating! TGIF!

Is anyone (I guess technically this is addressed to Americans) joining a Turkey Trot this year? ‍

No turkey trot here but am doing a Christmas themed 5k in December.

I went trail skating yesterday and I'm thinking it might be my last of the season. The nuts, sticks, and leaves are taking over the trail and I don't want to succumb to nut injuries.

I did a core workout tonight and day 21 (2:50) wall sit. I'm feeling good with the wall sits. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

That is an awesome time. I might try one tomorrow if my Monday doesn't give me enough punishment in general

Happy sweating!

Yeah, my gym is hosting one I think either next week or the week after that I plan on hopping on

Day 23, 3:10 wall sit... Not gonna lie, this one was brutal lol. I'm glad tomorrow is a quick 20 second recovery day.

Derby practice was great last night, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have a feeling by Thanksgiving I'll be playing with the team.

I did some skating drills at home this evening after that brutal wall sit. I am still feeling the burn lol.

That’s awesome that you are doing the wall sit and the skating. Your legs have to be getting quite the workout but also seeing some good results from it.

I dropped out of the wall sit challenge. That was brutal. I struggled to get a minute and a half. I wasn’t able to increase as rapidly as the calendar lays out. But I think it’s great that you’re still getting after it.

Listening to your body is most important!

Wall sit for today is complete : Day 25, 3:20. It was not at brutal as Tuesday's 3:10. Spending more time in the position is giving me time to really concentrate on weight distribution and form. We'll see how I feel about that tomorrow with 3:30.

 

[SWR101]

I’m dreading today’s, but it’s also leg day so YAY

 

[ihflrm]

Leg day for me too but I despise leg day! lol

 

[sallysparrow23]

3:30 wall sit

I took a few days off but completed day 26 this morning... 4 more days!!

Derby was great last night. I skated hard and sweat even harder. I didn't feel them this morning but am starting to feel some soreness in my upper thighs from where a few teammates were gripping quite hard during a drill so I will probably have some fingerprint bruises by the end of the day.

Tonight I'm doing a full body ballet barre workout.

Happy sweating!

 

[SWR101]

Today is pull day, so back abs Bi’s mostly. Yesterday was push and my shoulders are already on fire!

 

[Lmizzler]

Enjoyed the unseasonably warm evening with a run after dark. Curse you time change!

 

[sallysparrow23]

3:40 wall sit
Only three days left!
I stress ate a bunch of ice cream last night and took out my rage of today with some ballet barre cardio. It's all about balance.

 

[sallysparrow23]

I finished the wall sit challenge today. It was anticlimactic, and it didn't feel great at the end. I guess it was a good learning experience.

Nice job Sally. I dropped out a bit ago. That one was killer.
I’m impressed you were able to stick it out and do it. Especially with skating at the same time

Thanks for going as long as you did! It helped deepen my stance while skating, but I'm over it now lol.
