@ghex 2 major things helped me immensely; doing the 3/12/30 treadmill workouts 3 times a week (sometimes 4 times a week). Speed on 3, 12 incline, for 30 minutes. I had to work my way up to it, I’d just lower the incline for a few minutes then climb it back up. Second thing, kettlebell workouts...

@sanj79 Sure!

@sanj79 Yes, I’m using 15 pound weights and doing goblet squats and Bulgarian split squats. I follow some people on TikTok that have been really helpful.

@ghex Umm, I guess I hate leg day is because I feel like my abs, shoulders and back are so strong and look good; I get discouraged when I’m not getting the same result with my legs… I’ve come a loooog way in the past year, and I’m proud of myself, I’ll keep working on them!!

@sanj79 Yes, I am currently in maintenance mode for my weight, but definitely like being able to have more freedom on the weekends 🍻😉

@emosoundlogic Wow, realism. I like it! That’s why we put in the work. Being a nurse still working at the bedside demands I keep my body strong 💪🏻

@melissa1989 I went downstairs and did it! Actually did extra…I asked myself what my least favorite exercise was and made myself do 3 sets! (Along with my usual leg stuff). Super happy now! I’ll refer to your post on lazy days! Thanks!!

It’s leg day…my least favorite, and I’m just lagging! I’m all dressed to work out, but just sitting here drinking coffee. Help me!

@momofone1 Thank you, I appreciate all of this wisdom I’m getting!! It means a lot. I definitely don’t drink enough water. Period. I’m definitely taking more days off. And starting Creatinine. I struggle with protein. As I said, I’m not one for protein shakes, or protein powder. Just my...

@wareagle15 Can I PM you?

@johntn I sort of suspected something like that may be occurring. I’ve always had low level pain, even before I started exercising. I had my CRP tested once when my hands and feet were hurting; it was normal so it was just called arthritis. Starting HRT helped immensely and took that pain...

@jjrjr Having difficulty sifting through all the supplements that are out there. I’m extremely sensitive to anything artificial.

@jjrjr Yeah, I agree, definitely feel like pushing myself to go heavier, longer…all those things, is beneficial to my mental health. Being on this fitness journey really helped me through a lot, and I don’t want to slow down. I take magnesium for migraines but only 250mg a day. Oh, and would I...

@velveteyes79 Excellent advice, I will definitely change things up!

@zach84 Yes!!! Love both!

@zach84 It makes me feel old! Look like an old lady getting up from a chair! lol 😝

@zach84 I’m definitely going to try doing 2 day rest days minimum

@_%D7%A1%D7%AA Yes, I’m realizing that I’m pushing too much. Definitely not taking in enough protein either.

@lee Haha, definitely not a big eater! I’ve lost 26 pounds since last February (‘23), and I’m perfectly happy with my current weight of 129. I’m just maintaining my weight but still enjoy seeing my body transform into a leaner more muscular lady!

@smalltownyouthpastor Unfortunately I only have my own gym, no machines or cables there! I’m going to look in to supplements. There’s just so much conflicting information out there. Thank you!
