Let's Post our Daily Exercise

LB your DH sounds like a gem, wish I could 'help out' cause you know I have a sweet tooth Lyzzysmom agree, cancer sucks!!!! Brrrrrrr 24 degree, that sure sounds cold

Today I did a Grit class that was being filmed, it was the very first time the guy had taught a class and he was filming for assessment so that he can become an instructor I thought he did an excellent job, I was mad at myself as I forgot my Fitbit and I wanted to see how my heart rate worked as this class is HIIT at the end I was gulping air

I ran up and down the basement stairs a LOT. Much improvement is needed. I look so tired, with really awful bags under my eyes and no color to my face. I took the past couple days to nap and relax. Hopefully I do some exercise tomorrow. I don't know how to address these awful bags under my eyes.

90 minutes on exercise bike while I read Grisham's Gray Mountain. I ride faster when I watch an action movie, but decided to read today.

Ginger it's check in June 15th for 4 nights in Carlsbad, San Diego is the closest airport or I'm an hour and a half north so I'm driving down, you would fly into John Wayne airport (airport code SNA) and I could drive you down and for those flying into San Diego one of the San Diego ladies or I will do airport pick ups.

Did Body Pump this morning although I have to confess I got a 10 minute break when I had to go change a diaper for the instructors little boy

6 mile run in the park this morning. Was only going to do 4 but felt so good I added on a couple more.

Finally got back on the treadmill today and did some stretching. I'm hoping this week will be less hectic so I can try to get in a routine with it. Hope everyone enjoys the rest of Sunday!

Badger: "That's how it goes."

Ruth: Can't wait to see you on Ellen!

RhodyMMM, see hbcheryl's post above about the June trip. A few of us from this thread have been doing a meet-up in different cities around the country. I think 2015 will be year 5(?). Sorry you can't join us - maybe 2016!

Back to gym and pool today - 15 mins swimming (or what I call swimming which is more like fighting water!); 15 mins jogging and 30 mins water aerobics.

Welcome, badatusernames! It really does help to check it!

hbcheryl- thanks for the dates. Unfortunately, unless we have no snow days this year (not likely), I will still be teaching. Our last day is scheduled for Friday 6/12.

Was feeling tired and lazy yesterday but went to watch the Pats on Sunday night football in the basement and forced myself onto recumbent bike. I ended up doing 2hrs 15 mins, also with some reps on light hand weights. It turned out to be 670 calories and was in zone for 1 1/2 hrs. There were a couple of times when my heart rate went up about 5 beats just watching the TV. I took a short break at half time like the teams!

I have tried Zumba a couple of times but the Gym is having a 2 hour Zumba Party event tonight to raise money for diabetes (DH is type II). It says it is an into class which I need as sometimes I get lost in the regular class. If it says intro. then I will try and get there early and be up front instead of hiding at the back as I want to get a better view of the instructor. Of course I may chicken out and hide!!

 
My onc is insistent that I do moderate exercise five times a week.  I have been doing a cardio workout on the treadmill at my gym for years.  I do 5k each day and set the treadmill on a level five workout.  I don't run but I do an extremely brisk trot with about half the distance being on an incline.  It takes me about 43 minutes to complete the 5K and that includes the warm up and cool down.  Sometimes I find it so boring but then I think about all  the good things I am doing for myself, like bone health, cardio health, keeping my weight stable and down, lowering my circulating hormones, etc.

I was diagnosed stage 3 ILC in Nov 2004.  I have pain from the surgery and radiation but I try to work through it.  Sometimes I think the exercise actually helps the chronic pain I am left with.  

Tried a new yoga class today...Vinyasa It was a bit more challenging than the basic yoga I usually do. Had a great workout and think I'll stick with this class. Weekends are hard for me get motivated to go to the gym. But posing on this board has definitely helped to motivate me during the week.

Thanks all!

Welcome Jillian.

Personal trainer week at my gym so a different trainer each evening will take a bunch through a routine. Tonight was a full body workout which shows how hopelessly out of shape I am. She says to mix up routines so you don't get bored and also it tricks your body into using muscles differently. Quite a workout but I'm not a personal trainer type so will continue on my own, just have to push myself more. Shouldn't be too hard as have doc appt Thursday at which time she is sure to confirm I'm pre-diabetic so need to get my butt in gear with nutrition and exercise.

In addition to her 30 min workout did few mins on bike and about 20 mins on treadmill.

Didn't sleep well last night so taking a benadryl and turning in before too long.

Night my sculpted friends.

Hello all. No exercise for me today but will get back on track tomorrow night with bootcamp. Looks like I will get lots of walking in while looking for a new car. Got rearended on Friday and it is looking like they are going to total mine....
