My work out consisted of an abbreviated leg day, walking miles through mid to get a tractor to pull a stuck truck out of the field and walk back after pulling it out and parking tractor. 

My workout was cleaning over a 4000 sq foot house. About 5 hours…😁 

Daddy Manatee if you bought a Ford instead of that GMC it wouldnt have gotten stuck 😄 🤣 😂 😆 jk my last truck was a gmc but I do love my f250 wayy more  

Rest way had me in my feet and going…I’m at 20,682 steps and it’s not even 7pm yet.  

And I’m still determined to proofread…my only resolution since 1974…still working on it. 😝😝😝 

LOL Awesome rest day OTB! 

Jeez your rest day is my I wanna die day. Kudos 

Otb I get whatever truck is available. The flatbed came with the ranch. My ford was ok, put 200,000 miles on it. Have a dodge now. I have no brand loyalty.  

Some "rest" day! Great job, though! You gave me inspiration to work my legs more, too. I also broke my leg/ankle in multiple places a few years ago & I need to strengthen it. Are squats good for that? What about skiing? The boots hold the ankles securely & the motion is mostly knees, I think. You have to be in pretty good shape, though. My plan for next year! 🤞 

I helped my hubby move a 450 pound grand daddy wood stove from the house to the garage the past 2 days. I tend to get a lot of functional fitness.  

OMG box jumps! I am just barely 5 feet tall so jumping up was always much too high for me! 

Ouch! How did you break your legs in HS? I did a 10 minute warmup plus 30 workout w 10lb dumbbells which included a HIIT. 

Pushing a cart through Walmart. 😂 But if I feel well enough, I will likely head to the gym in an hour to lift weights and walk on the treadmill. 

Redporchlady thanks 😊  

Back & bicep/unicep today. Arms are up .75" and you can already see the right arm struggle. Man, I really regret not going to a better physician.  

donuteatthat82 haha just wait till tommorows workout post lol deadlifts, pull ups,curls, hyper extensions etc 😃  

Daddy Manatee I'm just messing around I need to try all the brands before i become loyal to one unfortunately a teenage girl decided to end my gmc early when she t boned me last year  

Yikes otb! You seem to have come out on what with the leap you have there.  

Hazel Loves Animals thanks. Skiing your foot is completely immobilized in the boot so you wouldn't have any issues as far as ankle mobilty. There are many different versions of squats you can do that require different amounts of ankle movement the ones I was working on today for me are the absolute hardest and require my ankles to move more than they are really capable of right now so I was getting in the stance and holding the position as long as possible to try and flex my ankles more and get them use to it. When I do regular back squats I elevate my heals slightly so I don't have to bend them as far. Injuries stink but its all about finding ways to work around them  

MorticiaAddams functional fitness is the best kind I'm always working my butt off around our property cutting and splitting wood and lots of other stuff. That sounds like a big stove a lot bigger than mine.
