I cut grass,weed whacked, pruned brush for 3 hours this afternoon.

30 min. stairmaster. I am watching "pervert park" on Netflix about a community of child sex abusers on parole (a documentary). It's very sad for sure, but also well-done.

I saw Judith on her computer in the cafe in the front of the gym. I looked away so that we wouldn't make eye contact. I did that because I prefer to chat in the locker room. She spends a lot of time on her laptop in the cafe. It's like she lives at the gym and takes a yoga class here or there.

Yesterday, I did some cleaning that has my shoulder aching this morning.

Hopefully when I leave the vet's office I will be back out in the yard this afternoon, and I have my yoga mat out to do some Pilates on the back deck.

I did my 100 situps this morning had my coffee and got to work. I check my email and there you all were working out, OMG! I forgot to finish my workout .

I did my 10 pushups, counted to 50 with my planks. I started doing this mountain climber position 3 days ago. I get into my pushup position and I run in place, it kicks my behind but it makes me feel so good afterwards.

Thank you all for reminding me .

Have a beautiful day!

I did do some cleaning at work but now I freakin' did something to my right shoulder! If it's not one thing, it's another.

I went to two PT pool therapy sessions this week. Just the small amount of walking in water and other types of therapist assisted activities, left my body on fire. But I'm guessing it's my tissues and nerves rewiring???

My sessions are private, so there's not much interaction with anyone other than my therapist.

However, I find the Netflix documentary you watched about sex offenders interesting, nycfem. Just today, on a short walk to a neighborhood store, the headline of the community newspaper was about sex offenders in housing situations. It's a tough heavy subject, for sure.

I went to the gym yesterday but didn't work out. I'm counting it anyway.

On Sunday, I did an amazing out of walking, and yesterday I had to go get medicine and go by my primary doctor's office to reschedule two appointments in early September, so I did about the same amount of walking, yesterday.

Today and Thursday I have PT pool therapy sessions....which after I'm done, I usually need an extra pill to relax my muscles and body (it's non-habit forming, and it works well to help ease my pain levels).

Friday I go to my monthly doctor appt to evaluate my ongoing medical condition. My doctor may recommend other forms of water therapy to go with the current model in use.

All that to say, that by the time I'm done with necessary walking, either for enjoyment or for medical treatment purposes, I'm very tired and ready for a big nap or to rest primarily in bed, for a good while.

I could only make myself walk three miles today.

I walked five miles this morning. I was a slacker last week and didn't walk every day plus I didn't eat as well. My mother baked a blackberry pie for my birthday. The pie is gone and I am getting back on track!

[Wrang1er]

Another five miles on the books! I have lost 16.6 lbs in 37 days. I should have done this long ago. Better late than never though.

I trimmed all the trees away from all the structures in the backyard this morning. It felt really good. I think it's important to change up the workout just to insure all parts of my body are getting exercised and this way I won't get bored .

[nycfem]

I have not exercised for almost 2 weeks. We were in Portland for five days, and then I did not go back to exercising until today.

Today I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster, levels 1-4 intervals, 75 floors. I finished the Netflix doc "Pervert Park" about sexual offenders. It was surely a well-done doc, though so sad. It highlighted some concerns about entrapment issues. Before I left the gym today, I picked out a new Netflix doc series about occult crimes. I like to keep it light :/

After the stairmaster, I did 30 minutes of weight lifting, sit-ups and such, and stretching. It felt great to be back at the gym. And my body feels so good post-work-out.

I go back to school the day after Labor Day, so I'm dreading the effect that will have on my exercising.

Thanks for the vent, exercisers

I went to see about a new place to live, new apartment, today and even spent some time walking through a very beautiful park with rose gardens. I have no idea how much I walked, but it was enough, and now I'm at home resting.

[Sunshine]

Good morning all you beautiful people,

Yup, I always wake up happy lol. I don't know why but I go with it.

I did my 100 sit-ups, 15 push-ups, 30 push-up running in place and counted to 50 planking.

Have a great day and thank you for this thread.

[Wrang1er]

I did my five miles of walking. I got bored by the 6th lap and picked up all the trash on the trail.

[nycfem]

Yesterday I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster. I have not found anything that I'm really into watching lately, so that's a bummer.

Today I also did 30 minutes on the stairmaster, as well as 30 minutes floor work out (abs, weights, yoga). It was all very fun.

Judith and I ran into each other when I was on my way out, and she was on her way in. She was dressed up and was upset I was on my way out. She looked stricken. She said, "You're not going to the party?" I didn't know about the party but I do know the gym sometimes has parties on the roof. I can't think of anything more awful than a party at the gym. Judith was dressed up for it. I was post-work-out clothes. I told her no. She tried to encourage me to go. I said that I had somewhere to be (at home doing nothing). She was disappointed. I think she would have liked to have a friend at the party. Alas, it was not to be. I felt like it was a scene from a movie, and I gave the wrong answer.

[Wrang1er]

Five miles today but I'm growing bored. Time to do something else.

[Wrang1er]

I had to add 2.5 more miles because I ate two cinnamon rolls and felt guilty.
