Time to catch up on my exercise posts!

I exercised 1 hour a day at the gym each day for my whole week off this week, Sunday, Feb 16th through and including today, Saturday, Feb 22nd. I can't say I'm doing well with my paperwork I wanted to get done for work, but at least there is some mighty good times at the gym.

Every day I did 30 or 35 minutes on the stairmaster Levels 1-3, 2 minutes each level, with "1"s for cool down, and then the rest of the time on the weight floor doing weights, stretching, abs, etc. My HR was 140s through 160s.

Since I was able to go at off hours, I got my favorite stairmaster every time, and the heart rate monitor is even working on it!

Wow, being off work sure makes life easy but I go back on Monday. I've been able to sleep in and cook and go to the gym. I think good sleep is so vital for intense exercise. And I haven't mastered that for the work weeks. I must keep trying.

While not at work and the weather so cold and my fitbit not working, I've gotten very few steps.

I am still enjoying having my health back.
