must.get.off.my.ass!

Seriously - could i be anymore unmotivated?
It's time for me to start pushing myself, i think..
Finding out there is no fairy who will drop off a pretty box full of motivation tied with a big ribbon on my front doorstep!

No fair... lol
Time to work on a program and get myself at it.. i miss the positive mind that comes with a kickass workout, especially after walking & hiking out in the fresh air..

Let's see:
Gym Membership: CHECK
Elliptical, treadmill, weights & gear at home: CHECK
Lake not even 5 mins away with beautiful trails: CHECK
Good sneakers: CHECK
Workout Buddies: CHECK
Ability to workout alone: CHECK

Excuses: CHECK
i've plenty of them - so time to scratch that one off and get my butt in gear again..

<----- girl who has GOT to get moving!

It can be super hard to keep motivated. I can go off the rails at times too. I know you are sitting squarely in the procrastinate camp. While, I am not there personally to cheer you on, I am here electronically to cheer you on.

When I go through stages of not "doin what I need to do" I go back to the basics to try to nail that freaking issue that I am not looking at that wants me to fail. The Saboteur is alive and well in all of us. Sometimes I just need to sit quietly, ask to speak to it and try to figure it all out. If that does not work I go back to the CBT charts and start from square one. I don't always know that I am triggered. Or what is my trigger. Once I find out WHY I am dancing with The Saboteur, I can usually get off the dance floor.

Detectives. We are detectives!!!

I am in your corner cheering you on Sylvie!!!

I started a new regime of exercise this morning. It involves working on the core. It doesn't make me happy to realize that I have not paid attention to essential parts of my body for way too long. It amazes me that the floor is much harder than I remember it being.. ~curiouser and curiouser~

Glad to see this bumped. It's a good time for me to focus on me.

Thanks!

I have been going to the gym almost every day for two months now and eating healthier. I am finally starting to see some really postitive results with my muscle tone, strength, endurance and mass. I do get frustrated about the time it is taking, but I know everday I will see impovement. My goal is to continually maintain a good exercise program because if I stop, I will be back to square one and I do not want to be there again. I am in better shape now at 51 than I have ever been, and that makes me feel really great.

Today I got my gym membership with Elament Fitness done so I can use the sliver sneakers program I get with my Humamma Glod membrship(its free).While I was there I got a showing of the place and all it has,its pretty standard.What it dose have I dadnt herd of before is a Infrared Sauna..It says it can burn up to 600calories in 30 minits,detoxifies,helpes skinproblems,reduces stress and helps with sleep,lowers your bp,reduces arthritis pain...reduces cellelite.It sounds like a snake oil sale even tho if it did even some of what they say it can it may be worth it.Comments are welcome and appresheated.

Hey neighbor I just got a Cannondale from my niece. My old bike just needs tuned but is a nice beach type bike. I've been looking for someone to ride some of those trails.

I get in great shape during summer because I'm gardening, working outside, kayaking and eating fresh from the garden. Everyday I fill two gallon water buckets for the dogs and lift them. lol I also started back juicing and to be honest it will transform you!

i just finished packing my gym bag...
i have an appointment at my daughter's school at 830, and then i am heading to meet a friend i work with at his gym..

He's going to walk me through a great arm workout with weights, and a core workout, because those are two areas i need to really focus on along with cardio to lose the rest of this weight and tone loose skin. Especially the arms, i am so self conscious about them after having lost weight. i am very grateful he's willing to do this, when i priced a personal trainer, there is no way i could afford that right now..

wish.me.luck.

Wow..can I relate to this right now...the hard floor and the needing to focus on myself! The core is my least favorite to work on...but alas, it must be done or things begin to look a little lop-sided..*chuckle*

The most comfortable way I find to work on my core (at the gym or not) is the balance ball. Gives you a comfortable place for crunches, and trying to balance yourself on it engages more of your ab's and back. Now, if only they could come up with something for sit-ups and leg raises...

I went to the gym this morning and I am feeling great.....I love how I feel afterwards the endorphines rushing through my body, cheap high....lol.
Can anyone tell me what excercises I can do for my legs, since I have a torn maniscus that I cannot have repaired at this time. I have been protecting it with a simple knee brace, but I am afraid if I push it, I may severely damage the joint. I have strong legs, but I would like to bulk them up some.

From Wikipedia..............
The menisci act to disperse the weight of the body and reduce friction during movement. Since the condyles of the femur and tibia meet at one point (which changes during flexion and extension), the menisci spread the load of the body's weight. This differs from sesamoid bones, which are made of osseous tissue and whose function primarily is to protect the nearby tendon and to increase its mechanical effect.

I'm hypothesizing, I'm thinking do nothing extra . Several years ago, I had an issue with my elbow (it also has a meniscus) I nearly went insane from the pain because I didn't stop lifting weights et cetera... when the problem first began, because the pain was tolerable. Maybe try an eliptical machine, it's low impact....bicycle riders have nice legs, but I'm not sure if thats hard on a persons' kneees.

I would definitely check with a medical professional and/or a trainer to be sure.
