Thank you! I’m going to keep pushing! I had no idea that body scans were available like that. I’ll check that out this afternoon. You’re right I need to focus on body composition instead of appearance!

Accountability check in: Day 20 of 30 days of movement #NEW

Worked out with Fabiana - abs and booty - and Raven Cruz - joined Ravens 10 days of stretching - felt good! I’m excited to see how this weeks gym/QW schedule will be!

So, I’m feeling discouraged because I’m not seeing changes in my body with my own eyes. My weight has gone down a bit which I’m thankful for and I am feeling stronger as well as feeling like I have more mobility throughout the day and while working out. I have noticed my butt is looking smoother like where the cheeks hit the thighs. It also looks a little more rounded out.

No significant physical changes though. I need to be better about eating. I don’t know why I can’t keep up with the food. I go all day and then I’m like ok once the boys are asleep I can eat. That’s where I gain weight and why things aren’t moving as fast as I would like them to

Wendy! I’m still here thinking about you and hoping you’re well!!

I definitely needed to read this today!! I have been feeling burnt out (like a little bit) and knowing there is a queen out there busting her ass with 80 hours a week at work I couldn’t think of an excuse to keep laying in bed! Thank you for posting and sharing your workout!

From what I’ve learned HIIT is like intense activity with a short rest and POWER is basically HIIT but it’s working multiple parts of your body then a rest. So, power is more like complex exercises like squats and burpees then rest. Power workouts are way more effective in burning fat and keeping your heart rate where it needs to be during the entirety of the workout. I’m obviously not an expert but that is my understanding. Coach Jamila Fabiana does this sound correct?

No matter what workout you choose on the QW warrior app you’re making the right choice! Keep at it, girl!!

Accountability check in: Day 19 of 30 days of movement #NEW

Took the boys for a walk, went to the laundromat, grocery shopping and ran 1.5 miles on the treadmill and walked 1 mile. I took some time today to plan my workout schedule for the week. Kind of a trial run to see if this new schedule is less chaotic feeling for me and the boys. Doing the QW workouts at home is a breeze, but I really want to incorporate the gym into the routine. I liked the 3 days on and one day off but I feel that my body is comfortable with 6 days on and one day off. This gives me solid time that I can dedicate to both gym and QW. Before, I was splitting the day and trying to work in the app and the gym along with everything else we work with as mothers.. left me feeling overwhelmed. We shall see.

I think I’ve gotten past the point of return and I now want to show up instead of needing to show up.

Hey Wendy!! Where ya at girl?? Hope 2025 is treating you well so far?

Today was a true rest day. No jogging, no walking, no QW workout just household chores and a stroll around the block a couple times with the boys. Felt nice. I did attempt to watch some nutrition courses but none of the videos would load? Anybody else have any issues?

Wendy! Still wishing you success and I hope you’re continuing on your QW journey.
