Just completed the ab finisher workout for my core! done.
Just finished the HIIT workout for today- Lightning Strike! Level 1.
Just finished the I love squats workout on level 1. moving on to cardio now
Took me a while to work up the motivation, but I did 2 minute abs. Goddamn my core is weak XD. But that's how we get stronger I guess.
Just finished Innkeeper on Level 1. Kicked my ass. Today sucked too because I had to do tax math and research for like 4 hours.
100% Workout done as my HIIT on level 1. I had to modify the plank part (kneeling) but I did my best to keep moving without breaks. I'm gonna drink some water, rest for a little, and then go into the strength one. Timing of today didn't really work out for a clear morning/evening split.
Silent Assassin on level 1 done as my strength. Didn't have to modify or take breaks!
Haven't been online but I walked both the past 2 days. Working up the motivation to work out. Been a long day.
Just did Standing Back Workout for my arms. They're on FIRE. Now on to core. Edit: on level 1

core done
Just finished Back into It on lvl 1 for my metcon.
100% Workout done on lvl 1. I did have to modify at points but pushed myself to not take breaks. HIIT done, now I need a total-body strength. I'm gonna sit and breathe for a few and then move into that.
I did endurance workout on lvl 1!
1 hour of walking done. I had to wait until 8pm for the heat to go down to 80F/27C; we're in the middle of a heat wave here in DC. Tomorrow it's expected to be even hotter 
Our AC broke right before the heat wave; my routine is so disrupted that I can't even deal with getting to a gym to work out. We're working on it, but my big goal this week is to not eat a bunch of crap and try to take basic care of myself until necessities are back in order. It's okay. I'll get back on it as soon as I can.
Thanks for the support guys. We got an AC unit in yesterday and today's the first day things have been normal-ish. I'm gonna try to do a workout now!
When I first started out I weighed ~210 pounds/95.3 kilos. Today at the doctor's I weighed in at 197 pounds/89.4 kilos! I know I need to get back on it with the healthier food after this week (I tried to choose healthy 'eating out' snacks like pita chips, but in general I would estimate that I ate more fat, about the same nonveggie carbs, slightly less protein, and WAY less fruits and vegetables during the heat wave, which likely resulted in more calories. I got some bbq as a treat today because I was out of food in the house, but I'm working up the motivation now to go to target and get a cooking tray. I need to buy more yogurt and some kind of lean protein, because I have a butt-ton of quinoa and some beans but no meat.

Update: I was gonna go back out, but I'm exhausted. My sleep was disrupted this week (was sleeping in min. 80F/27C) and waking up a lot in the middle of the night needing to cool down. Since I did walk for an hour, I decided 8k steps is gonna be enough for today and tomorrow I'll try to get 12k. I bought myself project zomboid since it's on sale and I'm drinking my non-alcoholic hoppy teas 
Walked a solid 10k steps (1h 42m) yesterday, and today was 9.7k steps and 1h 33m. Just finished toned arms on level one. It kicked my ass XD but I was able to actually do it with breaks between certain exercises as needed, and I know that when I first started there was straight up no way. On to abs!
Just finished classic abs. I did have to take a couple breaks but was mostly able to keep moving. For the first set, I think I did em wrong- when I watched the video I saw she was sorta swinging herself up, which made them considerably easier to do from a strength perspective but way harder cardio! Was interesting at least.
Edit: Also today I got some healthy food and a frickin cooking tray, so I can cook some chicken tomorrow or wednesday.

Just finished HIIT frontier workout on level 1. The hiit workouts with core in them always kick my ass, but this was a really good one for building core strength because the cardio is kept separate from the strength slightly, making it easier to complete. Highly recommend for anyone out there who, like me, has a really weak core to the point that it makes other workouts that use core indirectly somewhat harder.
Edit: I also got my chicken cooked and ate my veggies today! Soy sauce makes it easier for me. Really grateful I don't have to limit my salt intake lol

Just finished my first difficulty 4 workout in about a year! Bubble Butt. It was really challenging but it still felt like I was working out at the right level for that muscle group. It's funny to me that my legs are at 3-4 level while my core just moved from 1-2 to 2 level, and my arms are 2-3. Taking a break and then on to core!
Just did extra crunch as my core!
Just did everyday hero as my metcon. What sucks is I feel like I could handle level 2, but it's hot as hell in my room so it's gonna be a level 1 day XD. I did go for a short walk today though (~3.6k steps)
I feel like shit today, so I'm taking it easy but still moving. I went for a walk, and I did a difficulty 1 hiit on level 1. Gonna try to push myself to do a difficulty 3 total body strength.
Did endurance on level 2! Had to do kneeling side planks but still feeling good
Office Push-Ups done! On to core. I went for walks over the weekend
2 minute abs DONE
Just finished 100% as my HIIT on level 1!
Just finished ballet 'swan' workout on level 1. Feels more like a cardio than a strength but whatevah!
Just finished breakthrough on level 1 as my metcon! I screwed up the first set; I misread it as 2 jumping lunges at the end, so as soon as I caught my breath after the 2nd set I added 8 on before taking my break. My thighs still feel like they need to move so I'm gonna go for a walk.
Morning HIIT done on level 1. Almost didn't do it. I am buying yasso frozen yogurt bars though because i'm PMSing. will break for a few minutes and then do strength
Just finished Hold the Line on level 1. Push ups are hard! I did them as a plank for the first 2 sets and then I did 10 instead of five but kneeling for the third set.
Just got the HIIT workout done on level 1. I had a lot of health stuff to do yesterday so I didn't exercise, but I did walk a fair amount on Monday (8k steps) and the weekend I walked at least an hour each day (14.6k steps sat, 6.9k steps sun). My arms feel like they need to move though so I'm gonna a difficulty 2 arm workout
Done!
Just finished Bubble Butt as my leg workout! Either gonna take a break and do core or go straight into it, it's gonna depend on when someone gets back to me.
Core done!
I challenged myself with my metcon today and did Web, which is really core and upper arm heavy. Level 1 of course, and I had to stop to catch my breath, but I always kept going as soon as I could. Onward!
Did 100% as my HIIT on level 1. I still have to switch to kneeling partway through the middle, but I got further this time! Taking a break and then on to full body strength.
Just finished Ghost Workout on level 1!
