Description: W1/D4 Active Rest Day

Switched my Day 3 with day 4 since moving the Dock out was such a physical activity.

Tina

Great. Went for a walk while my husband had a treatment. Sunny, 29 C, logged 7,000 steps and so good for my mental health.

I’m upstate NY this week so I’ve lived hiking around Lake Minnewaska which I did today!  So beautiful!  And it  made for a great “active” rest day!  AND 15,489 steps!! Yippee!

Deb Stanton

Biked 10 km to meet a friend for coffee then 10 km back. Electric bike but still working those legs. Beautiful day and most of all fun!

Sharon De heer

Take a day off from the gym, but as an "active" rest day, be sure to stay active! 

Go for a hike, a walk, a casual bike ride, or do some yoga or gentle mobility work.

Active Rest Day!

W1/D4 Active Rest Day

I deeply appreciate a periodic “values inventory and alignment touchpoint”: is what I am doing right now aligned with my values? Why or why not? How to get back on track or stay in track? Am I serving my “old self” or the person I want to be? It’s not often a comfortable or easy exercise, but important to do.

Great! Beautiful day here in Calgary. Got in over 13,000 steps in 3 separate walks — two with dogs and one by myself after dinner.

Cindy Roberts

W1/D1 Cardio

Just what I needed coming off of Block 24…felt like a Deload day.👍🏼

Milo

Harder than I thought for a home workout lol

W1/D1 Quad Focused (RPE 7)

I’m sticking to the program with exactness this time. Only 15 minutes of cardio- not 30 or 45. Coach says 15 is enough so that’s all I did. 15 minutes of a walking aerobics video. Quick, got my heart rate up, and I feel refreshed not gassed. Now to focus on my nutrition- one meal at a time. Only focus on today.

Carrie

It’s hilly up here so I easily got my pulse rate up!  Yay!  Day 2 of cardio is done !  Did I mention the bear at our house as I came back down the street??? That gets my pulse rate up, too 😀

Decided to do 30 min Cardio even tho I’m recovering from a sinus cold 🤧

W1/D2 Cardio

Super frustrated.  Just signed up, but only one of the exercises has a video and when there is a superset only the first exercise is explained.

Sarah

This was my first workout, coming back to the app and I loved it.

W1/D2 Chest, Triceps & Core (RPE 7)

Francesca

Angie

W1/D3 Glutes & Shoulders (RPE 7)

WOW . Subbed for pull ups cuz no equipment. Don’t know what I did, or at least what it’s called…lol- just went thru it. 
Also did bicycle cruched for leg raises. Sweaty & Smiling☺️

W1/D5 Back, Biceps & Core (RPE 7)

Out along the Hudson River with my son ….way to get my pulse rate up when he comes along!

30 minutes on the treadmill - too smokey from BC wildfires to walk outside in AB! Good thing I made friends with my treadmill 😁🚶‍♀️👍

W1/D5 Cardio

Betsey

Had a hard time getting my heart rate up after a sleepless night. So maybe not cardio for the whole time but did my best.

Out for 21 minutes of cardio in the hills!  Average pulse rate was 123!! Yay!

W1/D6 Cardio

Wow the end really got my little tushy!!!🤗

Shanna

Mighty Powerful Beauty Booty Workout😅😅😅

W1/D6 Hamstrings & Glutes (RPE 7)

Did some steps on my walking pad. Gonna get outside for some FL Sunshine in a few!

Moderate exercise bike session, lots of other movement today.

Even Though it’s an active rest day, I’m heading out for at least 15 minutes of cardio

Walked on my walking pad last light while watching tv because the day got away from me. No excuses👟

Yay!  Got it done late tonight after going to a celebration of someone s life…he died yesterday and so it seemed all the more important to take care of myself…

W2/D2 Cardio

I’m lifting so much lighter but since it’s more reps than I’m used to, I have to drop. I usually do 6-10 reps. This is tough though!!!

Sherry

W2/D2 Chest, Triceps & Core (RPE 8)

Elliptical 20min sprints 1 min on 1 minute off

Sandra

6 km on exercise bike. Now on to weight training.

Oh man!  I keep forgetting to slide the completed slide when I do my cardio!

W2/D3 Cardio

Today everything was complicated. Equipment issues, work got in the way! But I adapted, overcame. It may not have been my best session - but it was another one done & it Counts. Small wins over time.

Brenda

W2/D5 Cardio

Done! Looking forward to an active rest day tomorrow.

This pushes me to get it in. I need the accountability. Seeing it unchecked won’t do! Did 20 minutes of incline walk with intervals of jogging.

Can progressive overload be something in macros? Like planning more at one time if you’re new and you’ve just been planning one day at a time I think that’s where my focus is gonna be this week.

Love Caroline’s workouts. They are progressive, well thought out on her part, and takes the wondering “what should I do next” out of mix for me. She’s actually the one doing the heavy lifting! 😉😂

Mary Lee

Able to increase weight for 2 sets then back to lower for 3rd. Arms like jelly!

W3/D2 Chest, Triceps & Core (RPE 8.5)
