I was surprised!!! I asked my room steward if I was the only one on the cruise with their own scale. From what he said I would guess that approximately 15% bring their own scale on this cruise. WOW!!! I am not the only crazy one!!!

You would laugh but I took my scale on the cruise. I'm showing a 2 pound loss, body fat of 17.8 and muscle of 36.4. That is the lowest body fat and the highest muscle mass my scale has ever shown. I'm going to get a body scan after 3 more training cessions and I hope that these numbers are supported!!! If they are I will feel that the cruise is proving to be a success!!!

I couldn't always repeat it. But I got it on camera at least once on each leg! Now working on pistol, without holding my leg

I dont know if we are allowed to ask questions and such but since it seems I can only post here, Ill give it a try. Today was the FIRST time I did a free handstand! I felt grass was the safest. As usually I always do them close to a wall out of fear. So today I did a bunch of cartwheels, then handstand to cartwheel. I didnt hold it but a couple seconds as I just wanted to feel safe with dismounts. I think next time I should try handstand to forward roll? Or what are other ways to bail thats controlled and safe if you overkick? I just dont want to fear hurting myself. I still have a ways to go to doing pike to handstand as I need to be stronger when I lean further over my shoulders to get my hips over my hands. As I need to use a wall behind my shoulders/head to help for now lol. Im just pretty happy I finally got away from a wall!! And was the first time since I hurt my rotator cuff that I went to a calisthenics park and my shoulder feels fine now! I just dont push it too much after that.

I've never taken the elevator so far and have found myself everyday so far taking 20 to 30 lights of stairs and I've been going to the gym 1-2 times everyday. Some times it's challenging to walk on the treadmill as the waves lift and drop the ship. I've met some interesting people on the ship and in the gym. I met one person in the gym that could barely walk with a cane but he was a beast on the rowing machine. I got on the rowing machine next to him and he was rowing at speed of 70. I usually at home row most at 40 but riding next to him I found myself rowing mostly at 70!!! He was great for setting a pace. Another time I sat down next to a young woman rowing between 70 and 100 and she set the pace I rowed mostly 70. After she got off I decided to try and get up to the fastest speed that I could. I could not believe it but I managed to get up to a speed 2 times of 180 but I could not hold that rate for more than a few seconds and dropped back down to a speed of 70. I was sad that there was no pull up bar in the gym. One day I walked in and there was a young man doing sets of pull ups. On the rack for doing squats he had adjusted the bar to the top of it's range so that he could do pull ups and rest between sets. While he was resting I ask if I could try. I'm up to 1.5 pull ups and 1.5 chin ups. Hopefully I will hit 2 before long!!! The second day I noticed that my blood pressure was up so I decided to skip the bacon and sausage and the next day this morning I took my blood pressure and it was back down. 129/73 with a heart rate of 55.
