Amazing job listening to your body !! It’s so important. I’ve also experienced what you described. I’ve found that taking things at a kind pace will still lead to progress and getting stronger, we are playing the long game and there’s no rush πŸ’• you got this!

It is the ocean! Gorgeous and unreal, so so grateful, and also why it gets so cold in the winter which is new to me πŸ₯Ά but I am adapting. 😊

Proud of you for tapping in as well and doing laundry!! You got this! 🫢🏽

Day 12 βœ… this one had a healthy dose of torture but was very fun and a great sense of accomplishment by the end! Abs were ON lol.

I challenged myself to start waking up earlier and getting my workout in at the start of my day (I can do this during follicular, very hard during luteal), having that personal time sets me up so much better for the day esp before I start teaching. A couple pics from a very lovely morning.

Hope you all have a great day! 🌞 ☁️ grateful to share this journey with you 🫢🏽

Tapping in for Day 11 βœ… abs + booty along with the below, which was so nice for opening my thoracic spine, can literally breathe better lol. We had an iconic sunset purple theme tonight (romanticized my workout in the living room inspired by luna elise ☺️), winter sunsets are so good it almost makes the cold worth it πŸ₯Ά.

Love how much variety there is in this challenge. Thanks for making sure I never get bored, Ruth! πŸ˜‚β€οΈβ€πŸ”₯

Tapping in from the laundromat πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ a big win for me. Daily challenging movement is overflowing into the rest of my life with capacity and problem solving to do hard things. Laundry is one of those things for me !!

Since my career switch (corporate marketing job before + teaching Pilates part time, now teaching Pilates exclusively!) 3 months ago, my husband also got a new job back in office full time. We have had a complete role reversal, I now do most domestic household errands/chores/cooking etc after 2 years of him doing it since he was WFH with a flexible schedule. It’s been a task finding my household groove/routine but I’m getting there.

Tbh I love most domestic duties, except laundry. But I dialed in, packed my doggo into the car, took him with me and on a lil adventure during the wash cycle, now finishing up drying while I read. This new routine made me way happier than I expected.

Hope you all have a great day and find joy during responsibilities! ❀️ I am loving seeing everyone’s tap-ins, go off bad bs !!

Day 9 βœ… rough day, but so glad I showed up because this turned out to be one of the best parts of my day. Def recommend this video ⬇️

Upped my dumbbell weight choice since doing this a couple weeks ago and loved it! Yay for progressive overload and getting stronger πŸ’ͺ🏽

Also, didnt know I needed the lower body stretches so much πŸ₯² last time, they felt good, but today were a huge emotional release as well πŸ™‚β€β†•οΈπŸ«ΆπŸ½

Now, time for a yogurt bowl πŸ˜‹
