Did you exercise today?

Different variations of this
(She’s got the best core workouts, but don’t watch near your wife)

My wife uses Caroline Gervan videos. I support that effort.

Wife 'trains' with Anna Lewandowska...

It doesn't matter how much you train...if you wolf down a bag of potato chips / cookies / whatever at 10-11pm...no amount of sit-ups, pullups, or running is going go help.
Every bit helps, you just won’t get optimal results if you also have a steady diet of junk
 
@GreyGhost and @mimico_polak you could also get them to workout with Zuzka

i think she used to live in canada for a while and she was doing the whole Body Rock thing, break up with the guy happened and she started her own thing
shes been pumping out content for as long as i can remember (probably 15 years +)
We could, but today the whole family is down for the count and some of the family members came down with something. I was able to knock out some sets for my 5x5 program…but barely.

I don't know about that..
A bag of chips, cookies or similar at night will make some difference but it's not going to wreck your efforts completely.
Small increments with both working out and diet.. trying to do too much or changing your diet too drastically.. makes it harder to stick with.
 
Been feeling guilty with all this tasty food, so put in some vacation exercise. These air bikes are similar to regular stationary bikes, but the fan does a solid job of keeping you cool.

Reaching the upper limit of my barbell shoulder press exercise at 94lbs.

Squat is raising 20lbs / iteration.

Bench press is going up nicely at 10lbs / iteration.

Love the 5x5 for the simplicity and speed. Plus did a nice 4km walk tonight as found time away from the zoo in the house.

Do you slow down the progress to 10 and 5 when you start stalling or do you change the rep scheme

Once I start struggling I slow down the progress to 5lbs versus 10lbs.

Once I can’t lift the new 5lb heavier set I drop to the last weight, do that 2x and then raise again by 5lbs.
 
Thanks for the review @PrivatePilot. My snowblower purchased from @nobbie48 seems to be going well also. But not sure how much longer.

Once that thing dies I’m considering moving to electric instead of gas.

Leaf blower, mower, and trimmer are still gas but that won’t change for a while as they’re all in good shape.
No electric for me. I’ve had 3 snowblowers, my first was my dad’s, made in 1970. Retired in 2000 after 30 years. Second came from FIL, Made in 1985, retired 2021, 36 years. Bought my first new snowblower in 2022, I’ll be too old to use it before it dies.

I haven’t had a battery tool last more than 6 years.

Well as I said the one I bought is OLD…but damn thing won’t quit!

@nobbie48 how old is that thing?
 
My 20yr old Cub Cadet that I sold last Spring is still going strong. Just saw it pop up for sale as it’s too big for the new owner (45” and yeah it’s heavy).
Replacement Ariens is matchy-matchy orange to my Stihls and KTM’s. Anyone want to trade their Kubota for a JD?

Yowza 45”!? Where’s the link for it?
 
One kid wants to learn snowboarding. No walkers allowed on lifts. That means hill repeats for dad for the first few outings. Once they have the hang of it, I can bring a board and use the lift. I am very out of practice on a board and do not trust myself holding onto a kid while riding.
