Hey, EED community!

Here is your daily check-in post! Hope everyone is having a great day!

If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.


1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.

2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.

3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.

4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.

5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Dynamic warmup; (non-plank!) stabilization exercises from NRoLfA: alligator drag, valslide pushaways, off-set farmer's carry with 40# in one hand at a time; grip exercises: farmer's carry with 40# in each hand and pinching 10# plates and walking around with them; metabolic training: laddering down from 11 reps with dumbbell swings (27.5#) for each arm and burpees.

There will be a (very slow) 2 mile walk later; I'm going to march in a parade.

I must be getting some kind of ab workout from my body's ongoing attempt to cough my lungs across the room ...

A rest day, a go see Melancholia day, a struggle to find a reason to go Christmas shopping after seeing Melancholia day...
