I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster today, levels 1-4. I watched a really good Netflix series while exercising called "Eccentrics." It profiles eccentrics and was quite enjoyable to watch, also thought provoking.

SmoothButch · 02-25-2017, 05:43 PM

Today was a bust. Ran 1.5 miles out of my planned seven miles. Some days your body doesn't cooperate.

Chad · 03-01-2017, 08:28 PM

Today I walked for 30 minutes. Went to PT and did 90 leg lifts with a 3lb weight on my ankle. 45 squats, 10 minutes of leg presses, and 2.5 miles on the stationery bike.

I can report that my quad is stronger. Today I ran up 30 steps with ease while my friend struggled. Soon I will be riding my bicycle. Yay!

Prior to my work related accident last November, I was bicycling back and forth to work (8.3 miles in less than an hour, twice a day), bicycling pretty much everywhere on my days off. I'm guessing my weekly average of miles was near 90 miles, or better. I was in pretty good shape.

Today, I was able to go down three flights of stairs, by myself, and walked slowly to the mail box to get my mail. I also did a small load of laundry and light housekeeping. I'm pretty tired, but felt I crossed a threshold today.

When my heart study concludes the end of March, and if they rule out all the questions they had earlier in January, then I will get to go to pool therapy.

Not sure how long it will take to get back to pre-November condition.... but I do what I can. My doctors and nursing team is proud of me for not giving up.

SmoothButch · 03-07-2017, 09:21 PM

3 miles on the trail.

Chad · 03-08-2017, 08:23 PM

Today I did 90 leg lifts with a 3.5 lb weight on my ankle, 55 squats, 2.5 miles on the stationery bicycle, and 50 leg presses but I am not sure about the weight so I will ask on Friday.

easygoingfemme · 03-09-2017, 06:37 AM

Yesterday was 4 miles rowing and a lot of running up and down stairs at work.

Hoping for more of the same today, though I am in a training for half the day and that will require lots of boring sitting...

Gemme · 03-09-2017, 09:02 PM

I'll get plenty of exercise tomorrow. We're expecting up to 8 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow.

Chad · 03-10-2017, 07:39 PM

I did 90 leg lifts with a 4lb weight strapped to my ankle, 45 one leg squats, 2.5 miles on the stationery bicycle, 65 leg presses with 120 lbs. Progress.....yay!

Haha! Always

If I really want to impress them I speak.

nycfem · 03-12-2017, 07:16 PM

30 minutes stairmaster, Level 1-4. Watched the t.v. series Eccentrics on Netflix. It is a great series!!! Doc style T.v. show celebrating eccentrics from around the world!

nycfem · 03-13-2017, 09:12 PM

I did the same thing today. Only difference was the show was getting a tiny bit boring... It kind of switched a bit from eccentrics to do-gooders.

I did 45 minutes on the stairmaster today, levels 1-4, 100 floors. I watched the documentary "Revenge Porn" on Netflix. It was not good.

Oh... and then I did 15 minutes of weight lifting and stretching.

Gemme · 03-20-2017, 05:30 AM

Feb. 27--elliptical, level 3, random program
267 cal, 2.21 mi, 30:00 min
stretch

Mar 16--elliptical (not my favorite but I was late and the gym was crowded so I had to take what was available....this one's arms didn't move)
226.1 cal, 2.04 mi, 30:00 min
Concept II rower-74 cal, 23spg, 8:03 min

The elliptical was off. Most are but this one was by a higher percentage. I did not burn 226 calories without using arms on it.

Mar 19--elliptical, random program, level 3
270 cal, 2.34 mi, 30:00 min
60 crunches on ab machine, different angles

This elliptical was more on par. I definitely worked yesterday morning.

Gemme · 03-25-2017, 02:09 PM

I hit the 24/7 gym this morning.

LifeFitness elliptical, level 3, manual program
213 cal, 2.45 mi, 30:00 min

I like the stats that these machines keep. My average pace was 12.14.

No stretching. I was on a tight schedule and had to run.

HA!

nycfem · 03-25-2017, 02:20 PM

I took a half hour walk in the cold, dreary drizzle. It was NOT ideal! Also, I did not know whether it was going to turn into a downpour, so I circled the blocks where our apartment is, so that was boring! The good part was I voicetexted with a friend I'd been meaning to catch up with, so that was great.

easygoingfemme · 03-25-2017, 07:29 PM

I exercised my patience a fair amount of times.
I rowed 4.5 miles.
