Thank you for the invite, I can't make Tuesday and Thursday as I'm working and I'm zooming tomorrow evening, in can try and catch one next week x x

Don't worry, there's no obligation. Sorry we're not more available if you did want to join. Feel free to join any time if it takes your fancy and fits with your schedule x

Thanks MintTeaMascara - I'll definitely try to engage with some of these sessions, although I might not necessarily do them at the same time as you all do - but I'll try to do them, and report back as well. I like the idea, it's fun.

You're welcome - you don't need to feel obliged to report back, do whatever feels right for you

Hello Mini. I'm in!!!! I've been looking for something like this to motivate me now that we are in lockdown again! I did intend to walk for 30 minutes each day but one look at the fog outside has scuppered that idea.

Can't wait to get started.

Whoopeeeeee I am one of those strange people who get high on exercise.😁

😁 Okay, hope you find this is what you need. See you here this evening at 8.30pm then?

Yes I will put a reminder on my phone x

See you then 😊 should be fun

Hi Mint

Sorry the timing doesn't work for me. I prefer to exercise in the morning.

So because you have motivated me I did a 30 minute programme this morning which I really enjoyed.

I am with you. Just not at the same time 🙂

Hiya Leyla

😁 - No worries, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Feel free to join in whenever's convenient x

😏

Eleanorba hope this answers your query

Thanks, looks great!

Looking forward to Tuesday!

This Saturday's work out starting in 5 mins

3.... 2.... 1.... Let's go!

Just downed a gallon of water LOL. A good combination of lower and upper body work, I enjoyed it. Think I'm going to feel it tomorrow. 😉Thanks for hosting MintTeaMascara looking forward to Tuesday.

Well done everyone who took part 👏

Definitely hard work at points but good. I enjoyed it, I'm feeling good I should sleep well tonight. I'll let you know how I feel in the morning 😁

Congrats to everyone that took part.

See you on Tuesday 😃

This starts at 12.45pm today

3.. 2.. 1.. lets go

I started a bit early, I really like this workout, it's great for doing in a small space too as you dont travel too much! Knackered now, no doubt will feel the aches tomorrow, didn't bother with weights this time, will work up to that in the future 🥵😂

Nice work. Glad you enjoyed it. Me too once I got into it. I dont think you need weights (unless you want to), you can just squeeze the muscle as you do each movement.

I'm really looking forward to Thursdays video, it's definetly my favourite.

Join thursdays in your own time if you can.

Hope you're not too sore tomorrow. All the movements can be adapted to whatever you feel comfortable with. It might be more enjoyable that way.

If I dont see you on Thursday, I hope to see you next Tuesday.

Thanks for joining in

Hi MintTeaMascara

I enjoyed this work-out - I did it earlier today though. I didn't use weights - and I'm glad I didn't, as it definitely worked the muscles without weights...! Maybe over time, I might add some in.

I think I enjoyed this one the most so far. I can see you like Thursdays best - so I shall be interested to see what that one's like.

Good fun so far. Really enjoying it.

Zest

I'm sure there's much less jumping about and need for coordination on Thursday ☺️☺️☺️

It's brighten my day a bit. I'm sure Thursdays is more catered towards finding your own level and style of workout, you'll have to let me know what you think on Thursday

Starting at 2pm today let's go!

3... 2... 1... lets go

Congratulations to everyone who took part/will be taking part.

There was an error with the video, which has now been edited.

Thursdays is definitly tougher on the legs but a great, low impact workout.

I'm going to have to fly, I'm travelling to my sisters in the morning but feel free to join in any time.

Hi MintTeaMascara

I have just finished doing Thursday's session, and I am sweating! I enjoyed it - really good. I see what you mean about the impact on the legs - but it's a good work-out, and I'm glad I did it.

Hope you have a safe journey to see your sister.

Catch up with you for the next one!

Zest xx

Hiya Zest,

Thank you.

Hope you enjoy it... I'm looking forward to Saturdays

Workout starting at 8.30pm today

3... 2... 1... lets go!

Well done to everyone who took part, another exhilerating and sweaty work-out 🖐high-five

Hi MintTeaMascara

I didn't realise you'd posted here, I'll have to 'follow' the thread, so I don't miss you next time. I started doing the work-out last night, but quite early in the evening - and it didn't continue past the first couple of minutes - just stopped, and I therefore ended up doing a different work-out which was also 30 minutes, but I enjoyed it.

Hope you're enjoying the weekend. I'm aiming to keep up the frequency of 3 sessions of Aerobic sessions per week - but can't commit to specific time - I tend to do them 'as and when' fits with my schedule.

Zest

Hiya.

That's strange.. I haven't had a problem with any.

Do give me a shout when you're doing yours and I might join yours too if I'm able.

Feel free to post them here anytime as people might want to follow along.

Hi MintTeaMascara

I tend to be a bit spontaneous about it! As and when... lol But I'll keep an eye out for you, and will definitely try to keep doing them regularly. They are good fun and great exercise.

Zest

Hiya

Thanks for letting me know.

I would off loved to of joined you but I have a zoom meeting starting in 20mins.

Hopefully can coordinate some other time

No worries, it cut off after about 5 minutes, so I'm going to go to the u-tube version, and hopefully that will be ok. It doesn't matter as long as I get to do it. I really like the Tuesday one, it's probably my favourite one of the three.

Enjoy your Zoom meeting.

Zest

Hi MintTeaMascara

Just wanted you to know I'm going to do Tuesdays workout now (Monday) - as I fancy half an hour of an enjoyable work-out, so I'm doing it in a few minutes...

Zest

p.s. Just finished it, and it was really enjoyable. Honestly, so much fun!

Hi MintTeaMascara

I'm a bit late for Tuesday's work-out, it's about 1.20pm here - I'm going to be starting it in a couple of minutes.

Zest

Wow, really good. I enjoyed it.

Hiya.

I completely forgot about todays workout somehow.

Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm about to start now

Ha ha, It doesn't matter really about timing, does it. As and when is good. I hope you enjoy it. I am sweaty now. I love that one!

Zest

Not really now, as I don't think anyone's following along any more.

Glad you enjoyed it

Well I'm into it - and very glad you suggested it - so thank you.

Just to say MintTeaMascara - I should be able to do the session at 2pm tomorrow, all being well. Not sure if you're still doing that time, but I'll hope to join you if you are, and if not, I'll most likely be doing it then - I am enjoying it.

Zest xx

😊

Yeah I'll be here to see it through for the next couple of weeks.

I have a doctors appointment at 12 but should be here to start the work-out in plenty of time.

Looking forward to it 😊

Hope your doctor's appointment went ok. I'm here, so looking forward to the session.

😊 Yeah it went well thank you.I'm going to go and get some water and then ready to go

Good idea, I'll get some water too. I'll wait for your count-down.

If anyone wants to participate but could do with the extra encouragement and wants a personal notification as a reminder before classes start, let me know and I'll be happy to help

MintTeaMascara Hiya, thanks for the tag. I've put up a general post so you will see that I'm unable to continue with anything at present. Will be back asap. Looks like the sessions have taken off, really pleased about that as it is so motivating when others are joining in. Take care. X

Hiya Bobz. No worries, take good care and hope you're feeling better soon x

Workout starting in 10 minutes

Great! I'm here. Looking forward to it.

3... 2... 1... Let's go!

ok!

Hi MintTeaMascara - that was great, I enjoyed it.

Zest

😊 Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks for joining live 😊

Yes, I enjoyed the fact you were also doing it 'live' - it does feel different to when I've done it by myself. Really good.

yeah it does. We're both doing it at the same time in a different part of the world

Synchronicity!!!

Lol

Thanks for organising it. I'm off now to get on with some things, and wondering whether I need to shower first! lol Hope you have a lovely afternoon.

😁 Lol.. Yes a shower might be needed right now. Have a good day and thanks again

I was thinking what it must be like for the man in the background and imagined doing the workout with 30kg of weights strapped all over my body.

He is very strong

Yes, he really is. He does really well. I haven't carried any hand-weights to do it yet, but maybe sometime I'll try with tins of beans or something like that. I have got some small hand-weights somewhere - I think I might try to find them another time.

Yeah.. Now I've gotten used to the routine I was thinking the same. Tins might be awkward to hold I might try and pick up a cheap pair from somewhere

Good idea.

Workout starting in 2 hours

3... 2... 1... Let's go!

I enjoyed that! 😃 Saturdays workout is becoming a fast favourite. If anyone would like to join in on Saturdays but can't make the time.. I'm considering changing the time so suggestions welcome x

Hi MintTeaMascara I'm glad you enjoyed it. I really like all three of the work-outs, they are really good. I find it hard to commit to a fixed time, as even when I know about the time, I have a daily schedule that often chops and changes, hence I think I'll just aim to do them regularly, and if I see you doing it at a time I can join in, I'll certainly let you know.

Hope you are having an enjoyable weekend.

Zest

Hiya Zest

No worries at all.. you've explained and I completely understand how you plan to join in

Hope your weekend is good too

Zest I really don't mind if no one responds by the way. It's there if anyone sees it who needs it x

Absolutely xx

30 Minute Workout Starting at 12.45 pm

3... 2... 1... Let's Go! 😁

Another calorie-burning, muscle-building half-an-hour. Have a good day everyone

Glad you enjoyed it MintTeaMascara - I hope I can find a window of time to fit it in later, but Tuesdays are always very full on for me - but I'll do it tomorrow if I can't manage it today.

They are such great work-outs - I love the fact they tackle the whole body, and I feel like I'm toning up very well.

Zest xx

yeah same... It's the "change juice" lol

Workout starting at 10am

Fantastic, I've just seen you're doing one at 10am, and I am going to join you!!! xx

😊

3... 2... 1... Let's go! 😊

Ok!

Hi MintTeaMascara That was great! I really enjoyed it. Great to know I managed to do it alongside you this time. I'm dashing off now, but hope you enjoy the rest of the day.

Zest xx

Alright, take care ✌️

Workout starting in 1 hour

3... 2... 1... Let's go!

Another fun and energy evoking workout

Have a good day everyone.

Hi MintTeaMascara Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you're enjoying the weekend.

Zest xx

I'm not able to attend this today due to poor health. Anyone working out today - have fun

Hope that you will be feeling better very soon MTM

Hi MintTeaMascara I hope you feel better soon. Take care.

Zest xx

Thanks. Hopefully will be right as rain in a couple of days lucigret Zest

So with the gyms being reopened these workouts will be coming to a close. I might do one last one if anyone is interested in joining, just let me know

I'll leave the post up if anyone would like to coordinate one-off workouts in the future.

Happy moving everyone

Hi MintTeaMascara I have thoroughly enjoyed doing these work-outs, and am making them part of my routine now - aiming for 3 work-outs per week as a minimum, and doing them as and when the opportunity and inclination arises. So many thanks for organising this thread, and your great initiatives. Really good fun.

Zest xx

😊 Nice.

All our classes have been cancelled and we only have access to the gym floor, so I considered sticking with the workouts - but there's more space at the gym and it'll be a change of environment, as I have no clue when classes will be restarting.

You're welcome - I'm glad it's been of benefit. I definitely have better endurance after them. It was really lovely to have you joining in. Thanks
