At the gym at 6A and worked for an hour.

16kg McGill Crunches
16kg Sideups, Planks

Jump Rope

Circuit
Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up 6 kg – 5 each side
Kettlebell Snatch 20 kg – 12 each
Kettlebell Slingshots 20 kg – 15 each
Completed 3 sets in 20 minutes. My slow up was the Turkish Get Ups. Two problems. My hips are so sore I just have to go slow getting up and down. My right shoulder is acting up so I did the Turkish Get Ups with the KB in the rack position on the right side. Really sad.

My workout was a disapointment. As least I was moving for an hour.

It snowed on and off all day. Nothing sticking. Winter, one more thing I am not ready for.

Heating gas bill came in yesterday. They popped the variable rate up to $14.05 per cubic foot. I called and was able to get that changed to a fixed rate of $10.87 for the next year. This story of the increased rates made it to the newspaper as a big story.

  • Is it possible that the big swinging motions of the kettle bells are contributing to your joint issues? Would working with traditional free weights be different do you think?

  • we got snow yesterday but it will be gone by tomorrow. Not liking that its coming hard to push the stroller all though it will be a good work out. don’t be hard on your self about the workout at least you did something. Angie

What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
