Wow, Saturday is looking to be 15C, this will make a great start to the group!


I have received a number of health forms in so we are ready to go. All you need is a 1 Ltr bottle of water for the arm toning and you can dring during or at the end.

Can I put in a small plea for a weekday session....to be truthful, I want to spend time with my other half on a Saturday as he's at work the rest of the week, but would love the chance to workout during the week when he's not around and I have plenty of time on my hands.

Sunlover & Bellenden,


No worries, Keep an eye on the thread and please add comments on exercise, moves, and things that you can't do just yet.


The plan is to get a Saturday group together and then after a few weeks branch out to during the week sessions... and as they are FREE its perfect!


Keep an eye on the thread :-)

Good morning all!


This is the Friday Rah Rah to have you ready for Saturday morning.



Will see you for 9-20am by the caf? on the Rye, and the key thing to look out for are people with a 1Ltr bottle of water.... thats us :-) I'll have you back by the caf? for c.9-50am and want to check in with the pace, just right, could be slower / faster etc. By this stage you will see alot of others turning up with bottles of water for the 10am group.


The weather looks set to be good in the morning :-)


And bring some change for a tea / coffee at the end.

Walked the dogs, been shopping to feed the wee ones, heading out to roller blade in Dulwich Park, and then onto the Rye for the 9-20 meet, and start at 9-30am for Londons only FREE and 20-min low impact cardio workout.



See you there, and..... bring a 1 Ltr bottle of water and change for a tea / coffee at the end :-)

Went this morning and it was really good. Nice people, mix of post-natalness from a few weeks onwards, good exercise. Some with prams, if you're worried about what to do with the little ones. My toddler was entertained by the exercises! Come along...

No worries Strawbs,


Will be great to meet up next week.


The 6 of us used every second of the 20-mins, not a run or a jog to be seen, but a bit of powerwalking and jogging on the spot along with some stretching and toning. Having said that, if felt like 45-mins of fun!


Within about 10-mins, the mums (and to be) started the toning exercises by counting which included French, and took control of the stretching at the end..... this is the same as the 10am group - I'm there to team build and structure movements that you already know and probably do like..... walking, basic stretching etc. We can do a few more Saturdays to grow the group and then pick an additional day or two during the week.


Verds, pleased you enjoyed it :))


We finished perfectly on time so the 10am group got going a few minutes later.... 21 of us!


Good JOB ladies and great team work!




Best!

BTW,


The everyother week cycle ride will not take place this coming Sunday, as its Mothers Day! >:D<


Will catch you all on Saturday morning for another pre & post natal 20-minute 'low impact' workout.



McCabe.

Here is the Friday Rah Rah!


The sessions are friendly, fun and...... FREE!


Meet for 9-20am by the caf? in the middle of the Rye, and head off for 9-30am. Its just 20-mins but will use every second to make it feel like 45-mins.


Counting in French, Spanish, German, Auzzie and maybe English :))


Oh yes, remember to bring a 1 Ltr bottle of water for arm & shoulder toning and some change for a coffee at the end. :)-D




McCabe.

Congratulations!


We walk for 100m (c.5 stops), stop and tone the arms. There are no transversetwists, side bends, deep squats and for the arm toning, no raising above the shoulders. And for the pelvic floor, we have a special trick.... but you have to come along to the group as its top secret :))


Everything is based on what you would do at home, in the park etc... I take the lowest impact actions and put them into structure / routine.


Bring the pushchair, husband, sister, mum, dad or all of them.


So you answer your question, if you midwife / GP has said you can walk in the park, then thats just what we do.


If you can fill in a health form on www.AHM-Go.com and email it back to [email protected]... its that simple!



See you there.


McCabe

As promised, we counted in French, Spanish, German, Auzzie and English.


I will try and add Hindi & japanese onto the list next Saturday!



Let me know how your legs and arms are tomorrow,



McCabe.

So pleased!


Did the 20-mins feel like 20-mins or 45-mins? I try to make every second count, but exercise is only the second part of it, inter-action with fun is the primary.


OK, having had two daughters let me give you ladies a snippet of the early days. Let me start with the youngest, Grace. Around the age of 5 she developed a rather strange activity that you had to watch out for...... I have never seen a child do this and was amazing to see!


If you want to know what it was, just ask and you will be so amazed!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
