Welcome back, Diana! Sounds like you had a nice time.
I haven't done anything for days, torn b/t feeling the need to do the 5th & final round of dumbbells, and a strong case of I don't wanna. Realized the moves (same each round, varied by reps & sets) are not the best for me. Weighted reverse lunges did my knees no good and all those shoulder presses bleagh. What clinched it was seeing my calves, which were not getting worked. Knee arthritis can lead to calf muscle atrophy.
Check-in: Xtend Barre from BBOD. I printed out the calendar of a whole month of half-hour barre. Yay. There are also hybrid calendars for barre, Pilates, and stretching. Today was barre signature 1. I could do everything, but didn't do the optional jumping. Broke a sweat doing releve's. (imagine that's an accent mark, not an apostrophe)
No pancakes today. Next week there will be groups on Monday and Wednesday, kids who live in farmworker camps. We do this in cooperation with the Catholic Diocese of Monterey. The kids are not allowed to stay overnight, so they get the whole program in one day. Then one more regular group next week & that'll wrap up the summer programs.
