April 7, 201412 yr I went to the gym this afternoon for an hour. Did some cardio and upper body weights. Didn't break any records but I still felt good afterwards :P Scary places Gyms..... Well done you. Cup of Tea, Cake and Soap Operas for you I think...Good to reward! (And you can't make hubby watch that nonsense!)
April 7, 201412 yr Jogged 4.26 miles. Ran by the lake again and there were sleeping swans with their head tucked into their wings. :)
April 7, 201412 yr Jogged 4.26 miles. Ran by the lake again and there were sleeping swans with their head tucked into their wings. :) This sounds beautiful... Isn't Miami supposed to be lots of Drug barons shooting at each other? Completely shredding my preconceptions!
April 7, 201412 yr Just finished some stretches: While listening to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-wZtXJePPc
April 7, 201412 yr Author Just ran 6.3 miles outside :) I love being able to run outside it is soooo refreshing(never thought I would ever say that LOL) I feel all the stress and anxieties lifted from me when I run. I focus on my tunes, the changing scenery and the peace I get from a run even a "bad" run is a good run :)
April 7, 201412 yr Just finished 20 minutes of aerobics! Amazing how much a 20-minute workout can make you sweat.
April 7, 201412 yr Decided since I messed my back up a couple weeks ago and it is just now better and since I haven't been able to run regularly this winter as I was last summer/fall I need to start with less and build up. So even though I want to go do what I was doing last year and it is mighty hard not to I decided to do a 0-10k app on my phone. Did the first one today and it was hard to follow since I thought it was way too easy but I'm going to be patient with it and I'm sure it'll pick up soon. Better than getting an injury of some sort. So 2 miles for me today
April 8, 201412 yr Triceps press 2 sets, then spin class with the crazy cardio/aerobics lady that has you ride standing with one arm behind you and then switching arms repeatedly. Good stuff though.
April 8, 201412 yr Did a half hour small group workout that was crazy hard but rewarding and the half hour of kickboxing. - I now think that if I hear the word push-up anytime soon I may curl up into a foetal position - so definately spin and not strength tomorrow
April 8, 201412 yr I've been consistent these past two weeks with kickboxing and or 3 to 4 miles walk/jog. I've been throwing in some bad and arm stuff too. I'm not looking a ton of weight but I can feel muscles building and my body changing which is great!
April 8, 201412 yr Author I went for a 4.5 mile walk with a stop at the store for dinner came home made some tacos yummers
April 9, 201412 yr Yesterday I did level 3 of the 30 day shred and I only have 6 more to go until I finish the whole thing - I never thought this possible at the start! :O
April 9, 201412 yr Yes! Just did level 3 of 30 day shred - which means I'm half way through level 3 and only have 5 left!!!! Oh my god :O
April 9, 201412 yr Lifted weights and did about 2 miles walking outside. I hate the early rising but it is worth it!
April 9, 201412 yr I'll be out doing some walking soon. After that, probably some aerobics/stretching.
April 9, 201412 yr I finally tried running outside today for the first time, instead of the treadmill. I think it is much harder. The weather was nice, however it was windy. Of course the wind was blowing in the opposite direction that I was going. My eyes were so teary. The second half of the run (jog) was so much easier, maybe because I was warmed up. I did about 2 miles - I took two walk breaks (two minutes each).
April 9, 201412 yr Monday - jogged on treadmill. Tuesday - missed yoga :( Today - planning to hit barbell class. Crossing my fingers that I can make it.
April 9, 201412 yr Since my quit started last year have said that if i make it to the the first of this year that i would start to work out. Well since about Jan.15th, have been doing 5 day workouts except for a slight back injury in Feb. i have not slacked off. Monday / Wednesday / Fridays .............. Heavy Weights, lifting and stretching Tuesdays / Thursdays ............................Exercises, stretching and jogging Saturday / Sunday .................................Rest, eat, and be lazy lol Feeling very good now and has become habit to me, using all weights, now need to go get more, reps have increased too.
April 9, 201412 yr So, I was really excited that another spin class was added. Got there today, set up my bike, did 2 sets of chest presses. I start to warm up on my bike and start to notice everybody has a set of 5 lb weights next to the bike. It's a part spin, half dumbbell class. Oh no thank you, I felt a little silly but got out of there as fast as I could lol. Went and did a 25 minute circuit.
