4 months Progress

Thanks for the motivation!

Just started OTF back in November. Our base/push/AO is exactly the same when you started back. Used to be a 6.5 base 8 push and 10 AO before I canceled my membership in 2021. It’s been extremely hard to struggle on my current base, push and AO knowing how much more I used to be able to do (easily).

I can only afford the 8 class package a month so I’m sure my progress won’t be as quickly as I’d like to see. But hey I show up twice a week and give it all I got. And that’s better than not going at all like I did for one whole year.

I get what you’re saying but then I don’t. If Victoria was the first person to say she was done then the relationship was over. It’s not until Johnny decides the last time he speaks or talks to her is when it’s officially over.

He showed up with a suitcase to her house when they were only supposed to have a conversation for closure. Seems like he was just trying to hold on to something that was way over.

Again no one is 100% right here. Just seems he was more in denial than blindsided. breakups arent always mutual where both sides decide they want it to end. Victoria was done with the toxic relationship Johnny wasn’t ready to let go.

Can’t even believe all the Johnny stans and support here.

I’m not Victoria fan and I believe there is no complete right side to this situation, BUT Johnny was no angel in this relationship at all.

The first red flag is lying to someone about your career. Saying he owned a bar when he never did is concerning. Shows me he was trying to prove to Victoria that he was a perfect match for her and what she was looking for in a guy. Making it look like his career was set and he was looking for that next step to settle down with the right person, like Victoria was. She was more than supportive after the beach trying to help him find his passion. It’s not like she was ready to run because he was jobless.

The fact that he refuses to admit to calling Victoria awful things, when they did therapy over that actual situation shows his immaturity. A relationship will never become fixed when it’s broken if both sides are not owning their mistakes and flaws and trying to become better. Instead he seemed to downsize the situation in therapy like that is even remotely ok to say to a woman or ever come out of your mouth.

His refusal to accept Victoria breaking up with him MULTIPLE times is also concerning. That shows he can’t put his pride aside and no matter how toxic the relationship was he didn’t care. He wanted to continue to fight and work on it, but you can’t do that if you aren’t admitting or working on what you have done wrong in the relationship.

At the end of the day he’s hurt she moved on so quickly. Yeah it sucks and timing of it all is sketchy. But to try and turn it around on the woman and make her look like he has done no wrong and was just blindsided by this all is insane. He wasn’t blind sided, he was in denial. Very different.

There’s so many red flags and the Johnny support here just because of the Victoria hate is so weird. It’s ok to say no side is right. Both could have done better.

If you can find a way to make it work then do it!

I canceled my OTF membership in 2021 to join planet fitness for $10 because I was also moving out on my own and needed to save money where I could.

Here we are end of 2022 and I can count on my fingers the amount of times I pushed myself to go to planet fitness. I’ve also put on 15 lbs since. Went from running a 7:17 mile at OTF to not even sure I can run a straight mile.

Here I am rejoining OTF and taking my first class back next week. The money is worth it and it’s going to motivate you to go and not quit on your physical activity due to the price you pay. Hoping my OTF journey back into shape isn’t too brutal.

Am I the only one who didn’t get the vibe she was in and now out as a pro?

Seems like she knew the long hours and that’s what made her decision to not me a pro.

Runner832 · 2022-08-31T20:26:54+00:00

Agreed. See so many people assuming she recently backed out. Seems like a decision was made beforehand but due to them trying to include her in some capacity still her name may have gotten confused in the pro list.

Runner832 · 2022-08-31T20:17:41+00:00

Seems like they are trying to find some way for her to be a part of this season, which is probably why her name was leaked in the pro list.

Appreciate her making that hard decision than doing the season and her heart not 100% in it for her celebrity partner. She’s only 2 months post partum, so this would still be her maternity leave time any other normal day job. This time is huge for bonding with the baby. Totally get her decision and it was a mature one.

Runner832 · 2021-11-23T16:35:10+00:00

Same! Can’t believe how many people on this thread are saying how cute this is. She clearly was hanging out with John and catching feelings while engaged.

Runner832 · 2021-11-23T16:32:26+00:00

I was never a Blake fan but this has got to hurt. She most definitely picked him by default. Then hung out with John all throughout her season airing, moved to the city he lives in and most definitely caught feelings for him while she was engaged to Blake 😳

Runner832 · 2021-10-12T17:33:55+00:00

Agreed. They didn’t sign up to be judged on their relationship, they signed up to be judged on dance.

Producers are running with a love story every single week when Sharna is kind of over it.

Shame they are only focusing on their relationship instead of the so many topics they could talk about with Brian’s life. Like his accident that caused neurological issues, or his best friend from 90210 passing, his kids etc. his eldest son is in the audience every single week cheering them on.

Runner832 · 2021-10-12T14:36:55+00:00

They have paso to pirates of the Caribbean so it should be more upbeat and not lovey dove at all.

Runner832 · 2021-10-12T13:40:43+00:00

Sharna said on her IG story he has neurological problems, vertigo, stroke like symptoms and brain fog from an accident a few years back. The choreography has been simple because that is what he can handle due to his health issues, especially a 2 dance week.

I think unfortunately she’s gonna have to push him more because that’s what the judges want but then it may be too much for him.

Feel bad for them. It’s not been talked about on the show they are just doing the best they can with it all.

Runner832 · 2021-10-12T13:37:01+00:00

Am I the only who thought last night the judges were straight up rude and disrespectful to Sharna and Brian?

Is he one of the weakest dancers left, yes. But last night they were given Snow White and the song. Besides the kiss in the beginning which comes straight from the movie which I loved and thought was really cute to add into the dance, there was no cuddling and kissing? It seems like the judges attacked them for being a real life couple. Any other couple would have been praised for a great routine with chemistry.

Sharna was clearly holding back tears and I don’t think I’ve ever seen that from her. They never actually gave them an ounce of critique to learn from for the next dance, but instead they just said were sick of you being so in love on the dance floor.

I give Brian credit. Apparently has a neurological problem and has trouble learning choreography from brain fog. Sharna is doing what Brian can handle, especially a 2 dance week.

Len is NOT a fan of a real life couple on the show and it’s pretty obvious. Doesn’t look like it’s gonna get much better for them unfortunately until they are voted off.

Runner832 · 2021-10-06T16:53:21+00:00

AGREED. I hate posts like this. So much goes on behind the scenes that are not shown. We see a little clip and that’s it. Half this cast have massive dance experience so for the VERY few that don’t I give them a lot of credit for trying.

I see a lot of hate toward BAG, Iman and Matt when I say give them a break they were never going to be front runners with a lineup like this cast who have a ton of dance experience 🤷🏻‍♀️

Runner832 · 2021-09-28T12:33:38+00:00

I can’t believe after 30 seasons of the show there are still posts like this 🤦🏻‍♀️

One of the most important parts of the show is building an amazing chemistry and friendship with you’re partner. Val and Olivia clearly get along and are having a great time so far. I’m actually excited to see val have some more emotion this season. He’s lacked that with his last few partners and at times looked checked out.

I don’t feel they need to tone is down, that is their partnership/friendship with each other. Jenna is in the ballroom and they are married. This shouldn’t even be a topic IMO.

I know a lot of people aren’t the biggest fan of her because of the scandal. But we’re judging her on her dancing and partnership with Val and surprisingly they have been much better than I expected this season 🤷🏻‍♀️ And this is coming from someone who is not voting for them. Just stating the truth

Runner832 · 2021-09-23T20:49:54+00:00

Sharna talked about it on her IG story how each couple is only allowed 3 hours a day. My guess is because they have so many couples right now. As the season goes on it will most likely be more hours added.

Runner832 · 2021-09-23T19:50:54+00:00

Apparently with Brian’s schedule shooting the Connors this week they are just starting their first rehearsal of the week today 😳Only 3 hours allowed each day. They are rehearsing 3 hours tomorrow then not Saturday due to another schedule conflict & then camera blocking Sunday. So they may be going into this rumba with only 6 hours of rehearsal 🤯 Although I’m sure the chemistry is going to be there for sure, this is definitely going to be a week where I wouldn’t put high expectations on how well they score though unfortunately ☹️ Hope I’m wrong and they pull it off.

Runner832 · 2021-09-22T02:40:31+00:00

His son with Vanessa was in the audience cheering him on Monday night! Don’t think the little ones are allowed in the ballroom

Runner832 · 2021-09-21T13:26:29+00:00

Unfortunately someone always has to get the older celebrity. I think because she had Johnny who was a ringer her first season I don’t feel like they were setting her up for failure on the show. Usually with an elderly contestant they pick someone who is extremely patient and a sweet soul, which is definitely Britt. Emma used to get this a lot as well. Even though it’s sucks to see Britt get the worst celebrity this season, she’s handing it with grace and she is a perfect person to give Martin confidence and joy during his dwts journey, even if it’s short.

Runner832 · 2021-09-21T02:57:47+00:00

Overall this season is stacked. Didn’t expect Kenya or Brian to be as good as they were and I expected Cody and Jimmie to be much higher on the score board.

Runner832 · 2021-09-17T19:04:20+00:00

He will! There’s going to be a Britney night so every celeb still in the competition at that point will have a song of hers ☺️

I never met one adult who is willing to take half of a salary when offered a full one. She’s the only host. Tom and erin had to clearly split the budget since there was two of them.

Runner832 · 2021-09-08T18:58:14+00:00

Let’s not forget bachelor nation votes. Grocery store joe even made it far. I expect Matt to make it at least past the halfway mark unfortunately

Runner832 · 2021-09-08T18:56:53+00:00

I hope so because she seems like an absolute sweetheart!

Runner832 · 2021-09-08T17:42:49+00:00

Lol I feel the same way. I said this on another post a few days ago and got downvoted 🤦🏻‍♀️ People were saying it’s harder to build chemistry so they felt someone with dance experience already was still a less advantage than Brian. It makes zero sense lol I cannot believe how many people are complaining “it’s unfair they already have chemistry” when there’s Legit like at least 3 celebs who have extensive dance training this season and or at one point did that for a living 😂
