Lol, ended up just watching a couple of movies and napping. Woke up and did the DD, Arcade, snd Stacked. I'll try that HEMA workout when I'm off work tomorrow
 
New goal! Wanna be able to rip my shirt off and confidently walk around the venue at the Lorna Shore/ Paleface Swiss/ Signs of the Swarm concert in late April! So I can buy more merch!
 
actually did some cardio today! Might have to start incorporating it into my daily. 10 minutes jump rope and 10 minutes shadowboxing. Short, sweet, and got a good sweat!
 
Luckily got back home just before midnight. Gonna be spending the afternoon/evening fixing my truck (brakes went out because I'm stup8d and make bad decisions) Got all of my workouts done in 2 hours, probably gonna end up sleeping til 5, then getting picked up around noon to go get parts, then the hell of actually fixing it begins. (Dad and bro helping) Hoping to get it all done and still have enough time to get some groceries for home. Then I have 2 days off before doing 3 12 hour shifts in a row. HAHA FML.
 
Been doing fine so far! I have 1 more day until I hit a month of non-smoking. Have tonight and tomorrow off of work and Wednesday is my bday! Hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend!
 
I could not hack it with the WOD today. Way too many lunges. Uggghhh. Did the Powerlifter workout with my EZ Curl bar instead. I also got a new smartwatch for my bday, so thats fun!
 
Haven't been doing the best this weekend. My grandma is in the hospital with pneumonia and sepsis, and she's not looking good at all. We're expecting her to go any day now. Tonight was the first time I've felt able to fully commit ti doing all of my workouts

I'm thankful for all the support y'all have given me. We're doing a visitation on Tuesday and the funeral Wednesday. We're planning more of a Celebration of Life deal. My gma was nearly 91 and had a full life. It was just her time.
 
Everything went well today. Said goodbye to my grandma. Pallbeariing went a lot better than I thought. Even went to the bar and had some n/a's and some laughs woth friends/family. A lot stronger than I thought I was, Again, thanks to all my fellow bees for all the help and support!
 
Been a hot minute since I posted here. I've been keeping up with my workouts. Stopped eating junk, and doing my best to avoid sugar all together, but that ish is everywhere! Also, ai got an adjustable kettpebell yesterday! Already tried it out with the Icon workout! Hella fun! Might try The Guantlet program starting tomorrow! Just wish it had a little more weight. Even at the highest setting, 40lbs barely scratches the itch for my upper body exercises. Hope all my bees are having va good Sunday! Let's lets make this next week the best, yet!
頑張りましょう❗(ノ≧▽≦)ノ
 
Didn't feel like doing the DD today. The EoD was fun. Never did bridge taps before, but Spartacus just looked boring. So, instead, I took my Miyamoto Musashi bokuto and my 10lbs mace outside and did 1000 Cuts while listening to the Samurai Champloo soundtrack. 500 with my bokuto and 500 with my mace. Awesome and fun workout, killed my arms, tho. Need a good long rest.
 
Never had cauliflower crust pizza before. No one else in my family likes it so I figured I wouldn't either. Finally tried it today, because I wanted pizza that was at least a little healthy, and that ish GOOD AF. 😋
 
I need to get in the habit of using this thread like a journal. Didn't realize that it had already been a month since I posted here. Still working on trimming my belly down. Got a big concert coming up on Monday, gonna tey to get in the put and not die. Moving into my grandma's old house at the end of the month, turning the basement into a home gym, so that'll be fun, but man, the packing and cleaning and everything has got me stressed the f out. 黙想必要 meditation is necessary. Doing daily qigong has helped out a bunch, and I'm on Nicorette now to help with cravings. Happy Tuesday, bees~ hope the week is good for everyone!

So I fell off the smoking bandwagon and had a couple cigars to celebrate finally moving into my new house, just getting back into the groove of working out every day now that I have everything unboxed and put away. Still figuring out home ownership stuff, but I'm taking it all in stride.
 
Getting back into the swing of things by trying a 50 kb swings for 50 days challange along with completing the DD and May Abs Groundwork Challange. I've also been doing a minimum of 15 minutes of jum0 rope. Might invest in a regular rope instead of my ropeless-weighted ones.
 
Hello again, I promise I didn't forget about my check in thread. I've slowed down a bit on lifting, doing more cardio/calisthenics, (my partner is also doing wiiFit) However, I'm teying to get back to pumping iron. Just did a quick 10 min lift. Felt good and my basement wasn't as cold as I thought it was going to be. Still trying to fo the WoD and EoD mist days, and at work too, if I'm able.
 
Man, I have had a wild last couple of days. I was super busy at work Wednesday night-Thursday morning, but I still got a workout in somehow, then straight from work I had to go to my parents' to help my mom pick up half a cow of beef from a city 45 minutes away, bring ut back amd help her put it in the freezer. I finally get back home around noon, and I'm up for another hour just getting settled. Finally ally in bed around 1pm. I WAS AWAKE FLR NEARLY 21 HOURS. That shit nearly killed me. I got back up again at 8pm and was so gd tired I went back to bed around 5am. Plot twist, instead of sleeping to my alarm I was up again at 9am making a couple sandwiches, then back to bed at 10. I was so restless tho! I didnt fall asleep until 2 and then I was up at 430 for work tonight, and Im sitting in a 1:1 rn which is hell because I can't really get up and do the DD rn, my "bio charge" on my watch is at 20 points, and all my workout app is telling me is to do recovery atuff. Which is fine I guess, but I need to get a sweat going or something. I feel like I'm going crazy, but yeah sure. I'll do active recovery already did 3 of those on the recovery collection tab, ans after I get home from work and grocery shopping and sleeping. I'm thinking of juat doing tai chi for the day. Yeah, that'll do me some good. Sorry for the rant y'all I juat had to get that out. ☯️道の平和☯️
 
Went to bed late yesterday morning and woke up late as well. Felt like absolute shit for a few hours, took a short nap, woke up still feeling shitty, then decided to get up and do something about it. Did laundry, dishes, ate well, caught up on some shows, did the DD and today's Glute Forge chalkange. Finally chilling with a comfort anime and trying to decide what to eat for my late lunch. Its the start of a new week! みんあ、一緒に頑張ろう❗
