June 21: Mix of Cardio: 10 mins "wave machine" (like skating); 35 mins elliptical; 15 mins sitting down bike (the one with the back) & a 5 min cooldown on the bike as well - so a total of 65 mins cardio
June 22: 30 mins bike, 15 mins elliptical w/5 min cooldown - 50 mins cardio & an "ab workout" (v. wimpy because my stomach is so weak! eek).... oh and I'm working at 6 tonight, probably a 6 hr shift

June 4: 20 minutes elliptical, 20 minutes rowing, 30 minutes upper body strength training
June 5: 60 minutes treadclimber
June 6: 50 minutes ballet bootcamp, 45 minutes elliptical
June 8: 30 minutes treadclimber, 60 minutes strength training (upper and lower)
June 11: 45 minutes elliptical, 20 minutes treadclimber, 40 minutes strength (mostly lower body)

Better late than never huh?
Since I only have a week left in June, and I'm just starting my plan (and I've very rarely exercised up 'till today). I'm taking baby steps, so I'll set a modest goal for myself.

Goal minutes for this month: 40minutes.
Minutes done to date (6.23): 0 minutes
Minutes to go until Goal: 40 minutes.

June
25th:
26th:
27th:
28th:
29th:
30th:
