July 10, 20188 yr I'm really going to try do the whole "active rest days" thing. This morning I did 25 minutes of steady state on the rower and 20 minutes of mobility work. I'm really looking forward to more hiking & rucking, but you know...this damn heat!

July 11, 20188 yr Did my strength work this morning: Front Squats, Incline Bench Press, and Atlas Swings. Had plenty of gas left in the tank so I did some supplemental exercises: Box Jumps, Kettlebell Shoulder Rotations, and Landmines. 1 hour ago, Doreensfree said: All those exercises are paying off Boo...look at you go !!!! Bear Crawls are a great exercise, but Goat Walks...that's some advanced stuff right there!
July 12, 20188 yr Jumping through the hoops my workplace throws at me, and commuting in the maddening Mumbai traffic should count as exercise, no???
July 13, 20188 yr Did some strength work this morning: Deadlifts, High Boy Rows, and Farmer's Walks. For supplemental work, I did a Pull-Up pyramid and a couple more sets of Farmer's Walks. As for my "active rest" days, I'm in the process of moving house. So, there is no shortage of heavy lifting and physical labor right now on my "easy" days. Have a good weekend everybody.

July 21, 20188 yr Hi exercise buddies! It's great to "see" you all and to see that you're still keeping fit! I haven't been around in a while but rest assured I've been keeping pretty consistently active with my workouts. I've added yoga and I think I've pretty much thrown in the towel on spinning- at least until I come across an instructor whose music I like. When you're not into the music, that hour sure can drag and why do something you're hating? Today: Zumba and kickboxing.
July 24, 20188 yr Went camping in the mountains over the weekend. Did a little hiking and just enjoyed the beauty all around me. It’s great when you can combine exercise with soul nurturing. ?
July 24, 20188 yr I haven't been checking in on this thread as much lately, but have been consistent with the exercise. I do a strength session on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday alternating between Workout A (Deadlifts, High Boy Rows, and Farmer's Walks) and Workout B (Front Squats, Incline Bench Press, and Atlas Swings). As for the other days, I do get in some mobility work and steady-state cardio first thing in the morning. Having recently moved, there is a lot of work to be done around the new house. The activity levels are good. Where my focus is right now is getting my nutrition and sleep levels optimized again. I've been eating on the run a lot and just grabbing a bite here and there for the last couple of weeks. To say my diet is less than optimal right now would be an understatement. And the sleep pattern is way off right now. I got by with a lack of sleep for a little while there, but it has caught up with me now. 4 hours ago, BKP said: Went camping in the mountains over the weekend.

Multi-day rafting trip down the Colorado with some hiking excursions along the way. And, where I live now is only a couple of miles from Laurel-Snow and multiple sections of the Cumberland Trail are nearby. I am ready for fall. Ready to get back out there and put in some trail miles.
