WORKOUT WITH ME | A REAL LIFE WEEK OF WORKOUTS | VLOGUST #13

[@BengeFamily98]

I just want to say you rock Christine. My husband and I are active, not as "Goal Worthy" as you and Dave, but I walk 3 to 4 miles a day, and do simple strength training at home, and my husband runs 3 or 4 times a week. He will be 50 this year, and I will be 47. We already have grandchildren, and it is so important to be able to try and keep up with them ,for sure! I love your fitness videos! Your budget friendly cooking is really on point as well. Thank you for sharing all that you do!

[@sbuxguy]

What impresses me the most about you and Dave, is that your own personal journeys into health, wellness, spirituality, financial acumen, and overall happiness, will most likely influence your four children for the better. Raising four healthy, educated, curious, fearless, and spiritual fit individuals is the best, most rewarding end result...I'd imagine!

[@violak5080]

I strongly belive in the "train to get older" our great grandmother is 92 years and has her whole life walked or biked and does at least 10 k's a day! (Sorry, I dont know in miles 🙄) I want to be like her when I'm 92 and older 🙌 Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪

[@wilmasantos3255]

Relationship goals!!! I love how you two do so much together and get along so well!!

[@sherilynalexnder897]

I can't decide which I enjoy more - your fitness vids or cooking vids!? The scenery at your lake is so gorgeous!!! I'd go there every day while it's nice weather!!

[@michellezayac1069]

I felt blah, missing the races, no gym outside of my home, and went for a run down the road amongst the vineyards for the wineries in Michigan... cooling down it was a hot 90 and your video was so inspiring! Grabbing up my daughter and we are singing up for the Everrest challenge!!! Yay! Exactly what I needed right now!!! Thank you for being amazing! I feel this is the only interaction other than work and I look forward to it! Huge Thank you!! I’m addicted !

[@BrendaLopez-px5kw]

Speedy is just the cutest little cotton ball!

[@coutmae]

A daily Christine video is exactly what I need in my life right now. Thank you!

[@Via_Green]

I got right on this video the second I saw you posted!! I love you Christine, your videos make my day!

[@ap301307]

I am super impressed with Dave’s backflip ! Seriously that deserves a standing ovation 🎉

[@13Laynie]

I knew you would be so proud of me... I am trying to loose weight and I'm walking everyday, just bought my first Brooks!!

[@sarakennedy4715]

You are so inspiring! I’ve been working from home since the pandemic started and I’ve been able to lose a full dress size by staying active everyday. I tell myself that even if I walk for 30 minutes (15 away from my house and 15 back) that that is enough. I typically do 4 hikes a week and 3 walks. I spend so much time commuting usually that it’s been nice to have time to myself.

[@peachhipgirl75]

I have been working out between 1-2 hours a day myself, mostly running and/or walking with some strength training a few times a week. I am definitely going to save up for that scale! Tuesday it was so humid outside that I ended up doing my workout inside the next day because it wore me out and our gyms are still closed here! It's looking like they're not going to open for about 6 more months. I’m in my 40s so I want to keep my health and mobility up.

[@c_and_l]

I go to TRX classes 2-3 times a week and love it! They sold some of their used straps super cheap at the start of lockdown so now I have one at home too. One thing I've learned with TRX (you may already know) is that if you're not feeling a stretch or move, if you adjust both your foot position (to change your balance) and move either further or closer towards the anchor point (depending on which way you're facing) that will change the difficulty of the stretch/move. Apologies if that was something obvious.

[@sooh6299]

I looooooove Adriene! Her yoga videos are so awesome! It has been too long... Gotta get back in the groove!

[@cjillwrite8249]

My grandma went dancing 3 times a week when she was in her 60’s and she had a part time job she is my idea of getting old, she never stopped being a;ive.

[@pinklm0827]

Christine you are totally fitness goals!! I completely agree with you, I want to be an active grandma one day 💪🏼 Health is wealth!

[@heatherabner]

Since early May, my husband and I have been doing 100 squats a day. Such great motivation!

[@nathalieleblanc8536]

I walk a lot and my hubby lift weight. So we normaly don't do sport activities together. We did one year. We decided to buy skates...neither if us put skates on in over 28 years at the time. We laughed so hard because we looked like newbies. People were laughing with us or maybe at us! Kids would fly by us like it was nothing. It was fun! You two are an example of what a couple should be like. Thanks

[@StaceyChadwell]

Going to check out the Everest Challenge. Sounds like fun! Thanks for sharing that information. I approach fitness similarly, different exercise (swim, paddle board, walking, biking, tennis, etc) different day so I am never bored. BTW, I completely feel for you with the plantar fascitis. Mine flares back up from time to time. Also, followed you some time ago for your recipes and meal challenges, but loved this video too!

[@nicolekorver8054]

I love love LOVE your videos, i make sure i try to watch all the time! I just started keto and really liked your keto recipe video and would love to see more!! :D

[@MommyMartinez9]

That lake is beautiful! I have a small home gym so I'm grateful for that. Then I do hiit for just a quick workout.

[@tiffani2403]

I got a cruiser bike 2 years ago. Same year I developed autoimmune arthritis how fun right lol. Well I got it well managed and now I'm Mt. Biking with my husband and our 10 year old comes too! Now I'm getting a gravel bike so I can put road tires on it and still do some single track eee! Thanks for the motivation!

[@Kentucky2Country]

I love watching you, you always put a smile on my face. Keep being you, I love it.

[@ttu888didfitrhondavigil8]

Your energy level is crazy. I need to get off the couch. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@70foolio]

Love the paddle boards. I agree exercise / daily activity doesn’t have to always be in the gym I love lake activities. 🏄🏽‍♀️🚴🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♀️🏌🏽‍♀️btw your movie quotes are the best.

[@FrugalFitMom]

Yes they are!

[@aprilheadley6271]

Awesome videos, on both channels! Now my husband and I each have a ton of exercise ideas. I watch your channel and my husband watches Dave's.

[@justinac2693]

I wish I was more coordinated! Paddleboarding is HARD lol. I'm only able to paddle around seated which takes some of the fun out of it. But any day at the lake is a great day

[@rosegroshek6098]

as much as I love your cooking videos, I love this one so much too! I wish you were my fitness instructor! You are so motivating and I love that you talk about fitness being anything that you like. Took me many years to figure that out and I still have to remind myself of that sometimes

[@timetogotosleepzzz]

Paddle boarding is great! As long as there isn't super wavy the learning curve is super low. Love your videos! ❤️

[@danacleere7624]

Only 2:27 into the video and I already bought something. FitTrack scale purchased! Let's increase some muscle mass. Who doesn't like a strong woman?!

[@cambenouali]

I love these videos and all your training content, these are my favourites❤

[@zarzee8925]

I thought I recognized that yoga routine! I did Adriene's "runner's yoga" just the other day! 😁

[@monamorgan8614]

I love you and Dave enjoy working out together. Keep it going👍🏻😁 My exercise has slowed to “zero to none” I have to have major foot surgery , on both feet 😫 and it is 6-12 months recovery, per foot. Take care. Hugs

[@randijohnson3806]

In the last week I've placed several orders for athletic clothing that's a bit bigger than I work out in (I do crossfit type workouts, so I get my clothes tight so they stay on 😆). I'm a stay at home homeschool mom (even before 2020) and I prefer to be comfortable and take lots of walks or bike rides during the school day. Now my 'regular' clothes can be suited for activity during the day and I don't have to feel like I have to change into workout clothes.

[@VoodooCrab]

Word of the day: dooboleedoo! LOL...i see Speedy is really working out hard there with the yoga! Dave's back flip was great! Then I remembered, he was a cheerleader! I like that story when you guys first met!

[@suedraws4998]

I am always more motivated when I’m training for something.

[@jenscats808]

Hi Christine!! I've been behind on your videos and I'm working to catch up!! Love this one and I'm going to save it as someone who is older and struggling to maintain a workout routine....

[@loriruby9433]

You are so inspiring to me !! Both you and Dave do such a great job !!👍

[@Jaguar_run21]

2 months ago I started using a lacrosse ball on the bottom of my foot- rolling it from toe to heal. I have really bad flat feet/fallen arches. When I initially started it hurt so much I wanted to cry. I forced myself to do it every night and now I can stand on the lacrosse ball. I think it could possibly help with your plantar fasciitis.

[@maureendavidson8264]

You guys are so fit. I feel like a couch potato.

Not sure how you came across my feed, but I am a believer of signs! I registered for the Everest challenge 🙌🏾

[@Sl1mj3nn]

I do stretches, pushups and squats when I have to wait for big files to open on my computer. Yay slow computer problems.

[@Jen-Chapin]

You’re so convincing you might have actually convinced me to sign up for the climb challenge 😜

[@FrugalFitMom]

LOL!!!!! I double dog dare you!

[@kristythecraftypapersmith]

The climb Everest challenge is such an awesome idea. Think I'll sign up too😀 Just have to figure out if it will keep track with my Samsung Active watch.

[@mm4chelle]

Awesome! I'd like to see more of the fit and fun part of frugal fit fun!

[@sheilawiard2077]

@frugalfitmom I tried your trick to use men’s razors and I have to say OMG! Thank you! This is an awesome game changer!!!

[@FrugalFitMom]

So glad!

[@PandaBear62573]

I get very tight in my hips. I was in physical therapy for a sprained ankle when lockdown started and my therapist had to include exercises for my hips because it was affecting the exercises for my ankle.

[@jpaulswan]

Dave - do you pick tthings up and put them down?!

[@tashleygagne5330]

I am seriously considering the Climb Everest Challenge! I could use some accountability right now, and entering in those numbers every day might do the trick.

[@pennygivan2551]

Figure 4 stretch is the best.

[@kt-mcgaughey]

Christine: 🧘‍♀️ Speedy: 😴

[@brittneysarah6910]

I was just wanting to get one of those scales yesterday. I’ll def use your code to help you out when I buy it. I’ve got to start stretching more. My legs have been so fatigued the last couple days. I’ll have to do a good stretch video with my workout tonight.

[@christinevoss6993]

Since you guys work out together I have a question. How do you do thing together and make sure you both are getting what you need from the work out? My husband and I would like to start to walk and work out but not sure how to balance his needs and mine. I am afraid he will need more then I am capable of doing.

[@kimbarbeaureads]

I love this video. Fitness vlogs are fun.

[@melissataulbee2048]

"where you going with those culbs....PUNK!!" hahaha love happy gilmore.

[@winterbells1]

paddle boards aren't available anymore T^T

[@sarahlee9969]

I was wondering what fitness tracking watch you have? And what your recommendations are for buying your first one? Maybe you could even do a video about it. Also I love your videos!! Your family always puts a smile on my face and your fitness videos always encourage me to incorporate being active into my daily life! :)

[@FrugalFitMom]

I use the Garmin 935 but mine was specifically for triathlons since I did an ironman last year!

[@toniawilcox6959]

WOW!!! Good JOB Dave!!!!!! he needs a frugal fit DAD shirt!!! :D

[@Rileywith2]

I would a video on what helps you with your plantar fasciitis. I'm pretty sure I have it. Right now it's feeling mostly okay. Always looking for some great feet care with exercise.

[@rachelberndt1835]

I love how speedy just laid by you!

[@silverbeowulf5601]

My husband is to broken to go for a walk. Need to get him a new leg 😀 I'm not bone broke but chronic illness sticks, just takes my energy away.

[@Saras_place]

I had plantar fasciitis both feet. I had surgery on my one foot cause it was bad and they fix something i tore in my knee to... I still deal w plantar fasciitis both...i never had physical therapy after surgery .. I pintrest ideas streaches or find somelike you to know what to do... but gotta keep moving which i do

[@jellybeansbud3610]

You might want to check our Bob and Brad physical therapists on KZbin as well. They have several videos on dealing with PF. It really helped me

[@Saras_place]

@@jellybeansbud3610 ok thanks i will do

[@Natalie-xy7zy]

I have knee issues. It makes stretching difficult. I can't put any of my weight on my knees or kneel down. I did PT three times. PT didn't help and I don't want surgery. Then, I hurt my rotator cuff. All I'm doing these days are slow walks for 30 minutes a day. Sadness. I used to be able to run.

[@jesicarios2171]

Who else is thinking of doing the challenge 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️ I definitely need some motivation right now

[@marciafischbeck7653]

Do you ever use a foam roller for your IT bands? It is my tenderizer!

[@FrugalFitMom]

Yes, I love mine!

[@nataliestanchevski4628]

I could not work out with my ex. We had completely different goals and styles since I was all about leaning down and gaining flexibility and he was focused on getting more jacked. It was boring and took twice as much time. Plus, it was not a bonding experience since we would get frustrated with each other.

[@karenhair3630]

I felt like your dog watching you do Yoga. Hahaha

Bought the scale using your code. Couldn't believe it still worked even with the sale prices.

[@thebiggshomesteadkitchen]

Great video! Your personal trainer (Dave) was getting a little handsy during the stretches. Lol

[@marjana6182]

Hey Christine. Thanks so much for the great video!!😊🙏🙏🙏🎉 I had a general question. At what BMI, your running performance is at best? I know you adjust your weight during race season. I was wondering what weight (ideally what BMI, as I don’t know your height) is best for you? I’m aiming to train for this season and I’m trying to get advice from highly experienced athletes. Thanks so much in advance.🙏🙏🙏

[@FrugalFitMom]

BMI is not my favorite indicator, because my muscle mass goes up and down as well. I feel very strong and fast between 122-127 pounds at 5'6". Ideally on the lower end of that range for a race but I haven't seen that # in about 2 years. That's more like marathon training. But to answer your question, my current BMI is 20.7

[@marjana6182]

[@ladonnarhoads2786]

Regarding the plantar fasciitis: I had that problem several years ago. I bought "heal seats" from heelthatpain.com. I would encourage you to check out the website, although their products are also available on Amazon. I had severe pain until I found them. I had less pain almost immediately and found after a period of time that I no longer needed them. I gave a pair to a co-worker who came in on crutches, having been to the ER about it. He had no further problem after he started using them.
