Talk about your exercise experience today

Yesterday: 30 min. stairmaster (levels 1-4) ; 30 minutes weight lifting and stretching

Today: 30 minutes stairmaster (levels 1-4)

Probably too tired by tomorrow to go, because that getting up early for work gets to me and I am a night owl!

[SmoothButch]

Ran three miles on the trail.

I walked about 20 minutes while dodging traffic yesterday but that's about it.

I fell apart after Tuesday's exercise, stopped sleeping enough for the rest of the work week. Today I slept in and then went to the gym and exercised for an hour, and it was like nirvana. I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster (levels 1-4) and 30 minutes of light ab exercises, weight lifting and stretching. I went in the evening, and it was super dead. Oh, and on the stairmaster I'm watching a good netflix doc series called "Captive" about people held captive.

I went to the gym around noon and did 30 minutes on the stairmaster (levels 1-4), and then 30 minutes weightlifting and yoga. Nothing is feeling out of whack with my body, and that's all I care about during / after a work-out!

[nycfem]

I did my thing of taking advantage of a Monday because I become more sleep deprived as the week progresses. Here was my routine:

35 min. stairmaster (levels 1-4, 2 min. intervals)
10 min. treadmill (3.0 speed, no incline)
10 min. upright stationary bike (HR above 140, random program)
10 min. stairmaster (levels 1-4, 1 min. intervals)
15 min. weightlifting
15 min. floor exercises and stretching

And I feel great!!

[SmoothButch]

I ran 7 miles out on the trail today.

[SmoothButch]

Three mile run today.

Happy New Year's, exercisers!

I hit the gym first thing this morning in an effort to wash away the old and jumpstart 2017 with a good workout. I had some challenges as I am battling a cold thing that hit me hard last night and I've got about 4 nights of not enough sleep under my belt, which is what drop kicked my immune system and allowed this sickness to slip in the back door, so to speak.

So, I decided to have a good but safe workout.

254 cal, 1.92 mi, 30:00 min
My average speed was 4 mph.

I finished it up with about 12 minutes of stretching on the True Stretch machine and the mat.

It was good. I worked but didn't overextend myself or lose my breath. I have some other stuff to do today that will be physical anyway so it's going to be a good day for exercise and movement.

I want someone to explain to me WHY our local YMCA would be closed on the day after millions of people have resolved to step up their exercise for the new years. I simply wanted to go into the heated therapeutic pool but noooooooooo....they were closed today!

[RockOn]

Here I go with my impressive self again ...

Back to back, I lifted a total of six twin packs Little Debbie chocolate swiss cake rolls into piehole ... it's a sickness, I tell you!! Felt squeamish afterwards and the sugar rush almost killed me for almost an hour.



I do not want any more Little Debbie chocolate swiss cake rolls today.

Oh no... go drink a big glass of water please.

BB and I put up our exercise chart for the year, which we had stopped doing long ago during 2016.

Yesterday I slept, and today I went to the gym. It was a hard workout. I hadn't been in as long as it was that I last posted.

I did 30 minutes on the stair master (levels 1,2,3, and 4), followed by 30 minutes of free weights, ab exercises, and stretching.

I'm really trying to stick to a sleep schedule this year to help my exercise.

Hugs to the exercisers. It's helpful to me to come together on this thread.

I got to bed late last night but one late night doesn't really interfere with exercise.

I went to the gym after work and did 40 min. stairmaster (levels 1-4), followed by 20 minutes of leg weights, balancing, and stretching.

This is the second time I've been next to the same woman with B.O. on the stairmaster. It's a rough time up there.

[RockOn]

took long walks at work on both morning and afternoon breaks

[RockOn]

It is rough indeed!

There are two women at work who have horrible body oder when they come in at 8:00. I am thinking of putting a bar of soap on their desks with a note which reads: Bathe every morning and use soap.

Do you find that working out later in the day causes you to stay up later?

What's just as bad is someone who douses themselves in cologne or perfume before coming to the gym and then, when they get sweaty, the smell compounds from the heat. I get that a lot at my cheap gym.

Go to HR and have them deal with it or the women could go to HR to report you for doing something like that.

Of course, you missed a perfect opportunity with the holidays. You could have given them small bath/body lotion kits for the holidays without being blatantly offensive to them.

I'm back to my exercise routine hopefully and I'm 7000 steps into my goal of 11000 for the day.
