I will have a 5th grade boy next year who has some issues. He runs away (sometimes off school grounds) and he sometimes hits others and rarely has respect for authority. We don't have a school counselor, nor a one on one para who can keep track of him when he leaves the building. Ideas?
I am taking a class on special education and need to do a survey on special education teachers and regular teachers (although i believe there are no "regular" teachers). :)
I had looked at the bonus workout exercises earlier this week and they looked entorely doable. There are two sets: set 1 has bodyweight squats, pushups, and mountain climbers; set 2 has one-arm kettlebell swings, goblet squats, and mountain climbers. Entirely doable, right. Well, I decided to read the description of this workout and saw that it was SIX rounds of each set! Oh well, I was already changed in my workout gear, so I started the workout.
Here's the breakdown of what I accomplished: --5 minute warmup (butt kicks, high knees, marching in place, arm swings, leg swings) SET 1 --bodyweight squats, 15 reps, 6 rounds (no problems) --pushups, 12 reps, 6 rounds (modified because I just can't do them unmodified yet) --mountain climbers, 40 reps, 6 rounds SET 2 --one-arm kettlebell swings, 15 lbs, 12 reps, 6 rounds (alternated right/left arm each round) --goblet squats, 15 lbs, 12 reps, 6 rounds --mountain climbers, 40 reps, 6 rounds (modified this round since my GERD was an issue on the floor)
After the workout, I used my husband's foam roller because my quads and hamstrings were very tight. I hope this along with my amino supplements helps me not be to sore tomorrow.
I noticed that the app I use for my workouts tells me how much weight I lifted. Today was 2,160 lbs!
In life a person occasionally gets the opportunity to do something great. When that time comes, only two things matter: being prepared to seize the moment and having the courage to take your best swing.
--leg press, 80 lbs, 90 lbs, 100 lbs,...See MoreToday was strength training. I had to keep adjusting weights each set until I found the right weight that challenged my muscles but were still doable. The goal of the weight should be that the last couple should be harder to complete.
--cardio warmup, 5 minutes on treadmill, 3 incline, 3.5 mph
The pullup was the only one I had to modify. I just don't have the strength yet to pull my body up. I tried one unmodified and I just hung there like a sausage!
After the workout, I went and did the foam roller on all my muscles. It is painful until the muscles releases and then it's great!
What colour shoes, bag and hat will go well with a deep pink/purple dress?
I am useless at this. Here are some options I already have available..nude/pale pink, white, navy, black (reluctant to use that last because it's for a wedding). Happy to look for something else though...just need to know what. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
flackaIf it's not too formal I would wear beige shoes/bag and if it's more formal, then silver shoes and bag. I can't help you with a hat since I never wear one.
I am taking tomorrow off and just taking time to relax. We are heading into several days of 90 degrees. Saturday is training day and we bumping up miles and speed. My poor body needs some rest on the joints.
I ran the Zumba class this morning but did not get the extra walking in. DM knees went out as we started the day and it was lucky I was behind her and held her up. Gently sat her on the floor until DH came and helped get her up. Afternoon went much better for her and for me!! I did get 2 miles on the treadmill which boosted my steps up. 10,737.
Babysitting today. First, the all school "picnic" at their school. Then, we stopped at a park to play on the equipment and to float a few sticks. Then to the soft pretzel store. Then, the library. Then, Round 2 of the water balloon jamboree. Today was "floatie" day: borrow bowls from Gram, fill them, then float the balloons. They can't throw them hard enough to break on each other's bodies, so they have to go to plan B. We topped the day off with "Happy Feet" with Gramps babysitting while Gram went to a meeting.
9,082 steps today. (30 minutes of walking before school + chasing kids all day!)
