Check in for 1 February 2023: I went for a walk on the beach. There was so some foamy poop from sewage after the floods. So many people were out swimming but I stayed well away as I have played the Oregon Trail and do not want dysentery. Check in for 2 February 2023: Today should have been...

Check in for 30 January 2023: I decided to test my hypothesis and do some combat based stuff. This was always my favourite as it kind of feels like I am tricking myself into working out. I started the Fireheart programme thinking I could do a day here and there based on whatever I was feeling...

Check in for 28 January 2023: I did the Push Pull Legs B workout.I've realised that it's not necessarily effort that makes me feel worse but it is body position. So I can do a plank for 30 seconds, but if I do a downward dog into a plank I will throw up. So I've decided to take "easier"...

Check in for 26 January 2023: I rescheduled my gym session for the time of day when I feel the least sick. My trainer and I definitely noticed I was stiff in my joints due to the lack of yoga. So we've come up with a plan for me to add on some stretches in between my sets. We are hoping that...

Check in for 25 January 2023: New challenge for this week is I've started to throw-up daily and feel wretched all day. Not too surprising as I am 8 weeks pregnant and week 9 is usually peak hell week due to the levels of HcG. So I need to be pretty careful for the next fortnight and hopefully...

Check in for 23 and 24 January 2023: My brain hurts. I can't really remember what's happened these past few days but I did manage to go for a walk on the beach yesterday. It was lovely to be out in the sunshine. Today I tried to do some yoga. Threw-up. Gave-up. Then did the Gridlock workout as...

Check in for 19 January 2023: Well I did it. I made it to THE GYM. It was pretty much empty so no overpowering perfumes or sweaty people (why is pregnancy nose so sensitive) and my trainer was super great at waiting for me to burp/yawn between sets. It wasn't a comfortable experience but it was...

Check in for the 18 January 2023: After my lovely cardio day yesterday I decided to try some weights. I chose to do the Push Pull Legs B workout because it looked fun and I had a crick in my shoulder from all the sleeping I'm doing. Unfortunately I had no weights to hand but as I am resourceful...

Amazing to have the Half Marathons as a goal! Wishing you all the best for your training.

Check in for the 17 January 2023: I felt like I needed to move and sweat today because I've been sitting down so much trying to finish my thesis. So I decided to try the Airbourne work out. It had some jumping but apart from the last 2 squat jumps they were pretty small. I took my time and sat...

tamagotchi! Very exciting! Well done on continuing your amazing streak

Check in for the 16 January 2023: I felt pretty achy from all the squats the day before so I decided to do arm day! I chose the Slowpoke work out as it spoke to me because I slept for 13 hours the night before. I had to stop after the first set to be sick and then to get a snack because the...

Hello everyone! This is my new check-in thread for my new exercise challenge. I suffered with hyperemesis gravidarum in my first pregnancy and I spent months in bed unable to move. By the end of the second trimester I found some meds that allowed me to get out of bed and I managed to get back...

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply! Carbs are truly a wonderful thing.

Walking is a lovely idea, thank you so much!

Thank you so much taking the time to reply and for your suggestion! I am unfortunately not one of them but thankfully there's medication that helps a bit.

That's a fab idea thank you! I might check out some of the Level One full bodies ones to keep moving.

Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing fabulously. I've hit a snag in my training plan and am looking for ideas. I am in my first trimester of pregnancy and have really awful nausea. I want to keep training as it helps me manage other health conditions but am lost as to what programmes or...
