CHUBBY SHADOWS~Kettlebell Workout; Coalinga-CA

senior

Punxsutawney Phil saw his chubby shadow today, predicting six more weeks of winter 😟 This tradition, known as Groundhog Day, has been celebrated annually in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, since 1887.

I am really starting to hate that fat little rat 😒

I want sunshine & warmth! 🙏

Speaking of chubby shadows … I'm sticking to my Senior Exercise Plan (including intermediate fasting) to trim mine down 😉; this morning, I used my 10-lb kettlebell: I could probably bump it up to the next weight size, but I just want to tone my muscles, not beef them up. I have no interest in looking freakish.

Warm up exercises:

Standing Alternate Arms Circling~6-15 reps x2

Side Step Rear Delt Row~8-12 reps x2

I spent the rest of the Day working on my WIP - it didn't wrap up by the end of January (Husband time took precedence 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨); but I really want it done before we get back to the PNW, so that's what I'll be doing pretty much nonstop from now on.

The coyotes were singing their midnight serenade, tonight. It always makes me smile as I drift off to dreamland …
