Thursday - Weight training
Friday - Biking
Saturday - Hula

This coming week I'm going to step it up a lot. I've been scraping by with really minimal exercise this past week. At least I was doing *something* but it really was bare minimums (20 minutes, low effort, etc). Time to step it up

[ValerieT]

Monday done, walked to the bakery for bread. I really need to get back into the habit of making my own.

[angleigh]

back to feeling better...yeah! Monday done, some treadmill and upper body. Thinking of going to Zumba tonight. I'm SO not good at it, but a friend asked me to go. I told her as long as she doesn't laugh too loud i'll go with her. LOL

Rented a family bike in Galveston and rode 20 mins, stopped, walked on the beach, then got back on and biked back to the rental shack. So, can I use one for today and one as a make up, please? I just have to admit that it has been years since I was on a bike, and wow are my thighs screaming!!!

Short 20 minute workout tonight - TurboFire Abs 10 + Stretch 10. Don't let the short video time fool out... my abs were SCREAMING by the 2:00 minute mark />

Saturday - 25 minutes of stairs.
I had planned to do better than this, but between putting holiday decorations away, planning my son's birthday party and working at my other son's preschool, it seems other things are taking over again.
*picking self up, dusting self off* Will keep trying!

I forgot to post my walk yesterday, but I got it in. And today I went back to my indoor circuit routine, with weights after.

I'm so impressed with you all! Ann turned her house into a gym, Angie is walking through a head cold and Theresa is out walking in the cold! Way to go!!

Wendee, I added you to the list! Glad to have you back again this month!!

Chart is updated!

Eeek, I forgot to exercise the rest of last week. I'll do better this week.

Today I was at physical therapy for 2 hours and at least 1.25 hours was exercise. My back, shoulders, arms and calves are sore to prove it.

Sorry - I'm going to have to dip out of this month. I have a dear friend in hospital and I cant see beyond visits to the hospital etc for at least the next 3 weeks. Maybe I'll be able to rejoin in February.

Good for you, Theresa! I'm not very good at Yoga. I shake way too much holding the poses!

This is a combination of yoga and strength training. She has you move in and out of a yoga pose several times, then hold it for 15 seconds. I was shaking a lot too.

I'm not sure what a yoga instructor would say, but Tony Horton actually points out a guy shaking holding a pose in P90X Yoga - and says it's a "good" thing b/c good things are happening in the body...he doesn't specify, but I assume he means muscular strength and endurance. So shake away and if you're at home, be glad, cuz no one can see you (except your own family and pets, lol)

[CRS]

LOL, Cheri! My dog kept a close eye on me today while I did Jillian Michael's Kickboxing video. I don't know if he was afraid I'd kick him or hurt myself! I have a feeling I'm going to be sore tomorrow!

[angleigh]

Tuesday done...lower body weights and a couple miles on treadmill

[AngRoCamp]

Monday I did random movement for 20 minutes. I feel like such a dork just watching Biggest Loser and doing squats and wall pushups and various cardio zumba moves and stuff, but I'm SO determined to move my body intentionally every day, even if just for 20 minutes and even if not a structured "normal" workout LOL. There will be plenty of bona fide workouts, but on the weird days where I don't work an hour into my schedule to do a class or get outside running or something, at least I'm doing *something* right? Hehehe. I've managed intentional movement 7 of the last 8 days. I only took Sunday off, so I'm feeling pretty happy about my efforts so far.

[AnnBK]

Back outdoors for me today. An hour and a half walk (more like a slog) through the melting snow. It was quite a workout, hard to drag your feet through that heavy mush.

Chart is updated!

[tiza126]

Tuesday done - attended a taiko workshop last night in place of our usual practice, but I know I got at least an hour of movement.

[Bride]

Ugh .... I'm behind posting ....


Monday - workout done

Tues - workout plus extra walk

Wed (today) workout done

[SodScrap]

Wednesday is done. I was so sore when I got up...I felt like I'd been ran over (twice) by a freight train!!! (rough appointment with the chiropractor which is unusual) Today's workout was to be shoulder/neck stabilization, which is where I was already sore...I dug out a BL video and got in some cardio! Muscles are loosened up now. Sometimes you just have to revise and modify!

[CRS]

I'm done for today. Basic Training with Bob! My legs were a bit sore this morning from yesterday's kickboxing, but feeling better now. I'm using Conda's trick and putting a dvd in the machine for tomorrow. That way I can do that, hit the gym or the treadmill.

I measured my waist when we first started and measured again today. I'm down 1/2 inch! I've only made little changes in my diet, so if I continue to make small changes and keep up the workouts, I should be in headed in the right direction!

[ValerieT]

Nothing for Tuesday or Wednesday, too many meetings with Ben's health professionals for time. Roll on next week.

[AngRoCamp]

Tuesday - Did 1.5 miles on the treadmill (26 minutes) and 10 minutes on the stationary bike. Felt good to get a more substantial workout done

[angleigh]

done for Wed, got some treadmill time in

[CRS]

Chart is updated for Wednesday!

[AnnBK]

I slacked off today..unless you count fighting the French Revolution at a matinee of Les Miserables. I felt like I had run a marathon when it was over! Can I plug in that 2 hour snow walk from last week?? I PROMISE tomorrow will be better!
