Yesterday I did a couple of miles in the sand, same today, probably same tomorrow.

I am gonna be so busted at PT this afternoon, I'm pretty sure it'll be obvious that I haven't done much since two weeks ago. In all fairness the whole right side of my body was a charlie horse for about a week of that time. Mystery as to why, just glad it's over. Still, will have to go in with head hung in shame.

I'm going to practice a bit now for faking it. :blink:

I've got three. For me the thing is getting into position and dealing with various and sundry pain stuffs. My most recent one is a quite soft one which makes ALL the difference in the world. I have several PT exercises I have to be balanced on it for. You're right though, when it's good it's very good. :)

This morning a couple of beach miles and then about 20 minutes of wandering around in the soft stuff for foot exercise.

Yesterday at PT we worked on a nerve issue in one leg (the other one) and came up with an interesting Rube Goldberg kind of setup for traction on the one side and I'm supposed to do it for 10mins 4-5 times a day for two weeks to see if it will help. So far, I've done it once due to it taking about 10 mins to figure out getting into that configuration. :blink: I think I figured out how to make it worse. More trials needed there but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it with a few more tries.

Im pretty sure the company that streams their exercise videos is called Gaiam...or something to that extent :)

My exercise today was the up and down the ladder with loaded boxes....then bringing said boxes uphill from the yard to the car. I feel it in my upper back...which is great. I lift weights trying to target that area and never feel it the next day....even with eight pound weights...I guess I need more resistance...or I need to get a job moving big heavy boxes ;)

Today I did a 2.5 hour walk partially home from work along the river (used the subway for the first stint through the less enjoyable neighborhoods). It was a day of perfect weather: sun on the water, not too hot, not humid, and not raining. I listened to some episodes of "This American Life."

apparently I was wired after all the physical labor lol

I got an hour long workout in...(step with weights) ab work...never my favorite thing...but it all felt very good. I did some exercises that are supposed to strengthen your lower back....and now it hurts....go figure....

what I REALLY need....is some nice strappin guys to carry stuffs for me! And maybe another to rub my shoulders today.....

Alas.....I have none so more of the same lifting and carrying today. Im gonna be soooo buff! I read that carrying heavy loads burns 800 calories an hour! Now I dont feel so bad about eating that Hershey bar :P

Started the morning with 30mins yoga and then 30mins pilates. Weight training lasted an hour this evening and I focused on my upper body followed by a 30min cool down on the elliptical trainer with hardly any resistance. Feeling good and really liking the results I'm seeing...finally all this hard work is paying off! :)

as is mine! I got on the scale today and found Id lost 4 pounds in 2 days! I should move more often....oh.....and forget to eat...lol

my exercise today will be more boxes and another weight/step workout later. I feel better when I work specific muscle groups rather than leave my exercise to what activities Ive done on any given day ie: cleaning, walking, laundry etc...

That's exactly what I find, I now just focus on specific muscle group rather than trying to do it all at once, I see better results that way. It also avoid muscle fatigue and overtraining which is both a physical and mental setback. Good luck with the move btw! :)

I did 45 minutes on the StairMaster (45/50 intervals), 15 minutes of weight lifting, 15 minutes of leg exercises, and 15 minutes of yoga. I'm so psyched it's the weekend!

I worked out with the trainer for about 1 hour 45 m ml inutes. I then swam to just relax my body for v about 20 minutes. I feel so relaxed

I'm going for my run. I've posted it...now I HAVE to do it!

Done! Thank you all for keeping me accountable. http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l1...psc8de1caf.jpg

BB (my husbutch) is in England this weekend so I had an extra long work-out. First I went in the early morning to the park by the river and did about an hour of exercise on the playground before the rug rats arrived. There is always so much to do on a playground, and it's nice to look up at trees instead of the gym ceiling! Example of a great playground exercise: Put your ankles in a low swing and face the ground with your palms on the ground. Pull knees in and extend them back and forth while keeping ankles in swing. Then I walked and did outdoor stair climbing for three hours. I stopped at home for lunch and then went to the gym. There I did an hour on the stair master, 30 minutes of weight lifting, and 30 minutes of yoga and stretching. Kind of a perfect day, and hopefully I will sleep well tonight :)

I took some pics that I'm too lazy to post in the gallery because I already posted them on Facebook. So if you want to be my friend on Facebook, message me and we can arrange that.
