I finally made it back into the gym, exercisers. I went to gym #3 as it's close to a Walmart and I had to go shopping afterwards.
LifeFitness elliptical, moderate heart program 195 cal, 1.81 mi, 30:00 min I followed that up with some slow and relaxing stretches. All in all, it was a nice and easy slide back into the grind of things. I didn't even break a sweat! |
I just went on a walk around the cul-de-sac at work. It's a short walk, but it counts.
:bow: |
I ran three miles out on the trail today.
|
Went to OTF ... got 21 SPLAT points ... burned 400 calories. <-- lots of cardio today. Ugh! :praying:
|
Exercise
At PT tonight I did 60 leg lifts, 30 squats, 10 minutes of leg press, and 2.5 miles on the stationery bike. :)
|
Still holding strong with 10000+ steps and some days closer to 15k or even 18k.
|
Went downtown and paid for copy of my entire personnel record. Walked 4 blocks downhill to the building ... parking downtown sucks ... the 4 blocks back up the hill to my truck made me tired but I made it. :)
|
Worked on Abs, Legs, & Gluteus tonight
4 sets planks 3 sets cable crunches 3 sets hanging leg raises 3 sets bicycle kicks 3 sets lying hip thrusts 4 sets donkey kicks 3 sets squats 3 sets lunges 4 sets lying leg curls 15 min. rowing machine + 15 min. uphill mountain simulation |
Arms today, biceps & triceps weight lifting and a few push ups.
|
Exercise
At PT tonight I still only road the stationery bike 2.5 miles in 10 minutes so I need to request more time. I did 60 leg lifts, 36 sqauts, and 10 minutes of leg presses.
My quads are getting stronger, yay! |
Signed up for the Marine Corps Historic Half marathon in May. Now I have to add hills to my training.
|
Exercise
At PT last night they added a 2lb weight to my newish knee leg. I did 90 leg lifts, 10 minutes of leg presses, 36 sqauts, and 2.5 miles on the stationery bike.
I really think my quads are getting stronger and I feel better over all. |
I got in a few hours of shoveling snow today. At almost 600 calories per hour, that's pretty darn good!
|
I did yoga this morning to help get the kinks out of my body...they were numerous but it worked..lots of ab work too which I liked.
Also did some kettle bell work. Its a great total body workout. |
I texted a bunch of family and friends, "How about a long wintery walk today?" One said yes, so I went with her :).
She is a colleague who happens to live a few blocks from me even though we both work in the Bronx. We walked for an hour and a half, I'd say, if I exclude the time we stopped. We walked by the River which was really nice since it was a sunny 45. She wanted to do a bit of city walking which I agreed to but didn't care for. I don't like to walk by stores and restaurants and through crowds. Give me a park any day. We had a great time chatting, and it was a wonderful walk. |
I spent a long time shoveling today.
|
Exercise
No exercise today but I am thinking about it. Monday I get evaluated by my physical therapist and Tuesday I see my surgeon. I want two more weeks of PT. Next I plan to join the community center. They have weights, stationery bikes, and a pool. I look forward to continuing to exercise.
|
I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster (levels 2-4), and then 30 minutes of floor exercises, weights, and stretching.
While on the stairmaster I watched a very bad documentary on Ashley Madison (the website that was hacked where people go to have affairs). Then during my floor exercises I just counted. I've always done those in silence and it doesn't seem to bother me, I guess because I am counting. |
I'm turning into my typical winter broken record. More shoveling yesterday, though not nearly as much as previous days, and snow prep, which involves a lot of walking.
I picked up a Backsaver shovel for us in the office since we do so much and my back is hurting so damn bad from consecutive massive shovel days. I found that it doesn't 'save' my back as much as the different angles just target a 'new' part of the back to make ache. I guess it's helping as it's letting the mid to upper part of my back chill out while the lower to mid back does all the work now. Potato vs potahtoe I suppose. However, my upper arms are getting more of a workout with this shovel so they hurt worse than with the standard shovel. Can't win! |
