I walked two hours with friends. We walked over the Brooklyn Bridge and then in the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Can't argue with that on a beautiful day.

The usual routine of late at the gym today: 30 min. stair master (levels 2-4), and 30 minutes of weight lifting, floor exercises, and yoga with stretching.
It's going to be really hard going back to work in September. It's so fun to sleep in and go work out!

I did the same old - same old... and loved it! Gym: 30 min. stairmaster (Levels 2-4), then 30 minute combination of weightlifting, ab exercises, yoga, and stretching.
School starts this Tuesday. Eep! I'm really hoping I can get myself to leave work on time and go right to the gym.

I texted my trainer at gym #2 because I still have 7 sessions to go in my package and I found out that he's left the gym. This is just a couple months after my original trainer left the gym. Now I'm stuck with packages that they won't refund and having to deal with a new trainer. Glad I'd already decided to cut this gym loose.
My workouts lately have consisted of house chores and work chores. Yesterday wasn't anything though so I'd better do something good today. |

Yesterday I went to the gym in the evening, same as Thursday night. But Thursday night it was packed. Last night (Friday night) it was empty. I didn't get the memo to go away for Labor Day weekend!
First I did 30 minutes stairmaster (level 2-4), and then 30 minutes of combined weight lifting, ab exercises, and yoga. Since it was so empty there was a major weight lifter there who watched me some and gave suggestions. Sometimes I hate that, but I found him helpful, straightforward. I am off to the gym now and will report back

I started my day with exercises recommended for hikers...one legged squats, jumping jacks and dips...
Then I went for a 2 mile walk with the dogs. Two good hills plus the hill back to my house. Now I'm at work walking copious times up and down the halls...

Today I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster and then 30 minutes combined of weight lifting, back strengthening exercises, and stretching.
People were going nuts about the gym construction. It's fun to rage about a common complaint while lifting weights. I guess Adding: I also went on a walk in the park with a friend for a half hour today (longer but I think we did a lot of stopping and looking around).

I walked to the coffee shop and the liquor store and back again. My goal right now is to walk 15 minutes every day. I have not met that goal the past few days but at least I walked a little today.

I was lucky enough to get into the pool the last 2 days...did an hr. & a half each day. I do my water exercises....and does it ever give me a workout. I usually do a half hour of them each time....

I'm still sore from yesterday's weight workout so it was just cardio for me today. I tried my newest gym (I may have a problem) and I liked it. Besides myself, there were only 2 other people in there that early and it made for a nice, quiet workout. A lady came in after the others had left and she said 'good morning!' to me and that felt good so I made sure to say 'have a good day!' to her when I left.
It's a smaller, brand new gym and they are restricting the number of home members because of its size and because they want it to feel different. I can go whenever I want unless I want training from a human (they have pre-programmed classes I can take on my own). It's not much farther than my other gyms, just in the opposite direction. Today, I tried their elliptical. They have all brand new equipment, although it's a brand I'm familiar with so that makes it fun to see what updates have occurred from one gym's version to another. I didn't go crazy wild or do any intervals; just plugged along at a steady 15:45-16:15 mph pace. Stats: 243 cal, 2.36 mi, 35:00 min The machine says that I produced enough power to light a lightbulb for one minute. Who knew? Then I went into the classroom and was that ever Heaven! Two ceiling fans on high cooled me down really quick (I prefer a cold environment to workout...it increases my endurance and performance) and I got some nice stretching done. I like this place! |

Well I've got tons of yard work today and that is always a good workout! And I need it too, since I've been nursing my frozen shoulder and not getting much extra exercise. I'm looking forward to a good sweat!

I took a 30 minute walk with a friend (longer, but we did a lot of stopping and starting due to various diversions). My iphone says I walked 11,800 steps today.

Progress!!!
I have been trying to hit the gym before and after work all summer...
So far so good. I have also been trying to get up this hill in my town during my night walks. My knee is still healing, so it usually gives out after 45 minutes of walking. I have been trying to make it up this hill for the past few weeks. Today I finally did it!! I turned my music up,and pushed on!! I even jogged up a little.... I'm still in shock... I now believe I can do more... I'm focusing on the bigger challenges ahead |

I had a great workout this morning!
I went to gym #2 and did the total body program on my favorite elliptical. Stats: 310.3 cal, 2.62 mi, 35:00 min It was great. I was actually getting some lactic acid build up. Then I hopped onto a treadmill and walked it out for a bit. Stats: 55.5 cal, .47 mi, 15:00 min I did a couple of minutes of ab work on the mat and stretched. Good times! |
