Exercise! - Exercise Accountability - July

Since no one has started this...

Taking a slooooooow start after injuring myself whitewater rafting (that was July 1, spent 4.5 hours out on the boat, which apparently burns some ridiculously high number of calories, but I took an unplanned swim on one big rapid and bashed myself good in a couple of places, so I'm going slowly to not aggravate anything).

July 4 - swam 45 min
July 5 - 30 min stability ball, 100 crunches, and 42 painful minutes on the rebounder (one of the places I whacked was my shin, the other bad one is right on my kidney - bouncing HURT)

Mandalinn Sorry that you got injured white water rafting. Hope you heal 100% soon.



Today workout was Tae*bo with Billy Blanks.

mandalinn - OUCH! sorry to hear of your injuries get better soon... Thanks for starting the thread...

30 min stability ball, 100 crunches, and 45 min walk/jog!

I jogged! (This is actually a really big deal for me because my weight has been too high to do so for a while. I have a congenital knee problem and my kneecap used to dislocate when I jogged because there was too much weight pounding down on it and my quads weren't strong enough to hold my kneecap in its little track - but today I jogged for at least 10-15 min of my time and besides one heck of a side stitch, I did it with relatively little knee pain!)

Taking my morning cardio off for a number of reasons (mainly that my houseguests didn't leave until well after they said they would, so I couldn't go before work), but between the 3 mile walk last night and the fact that I'll do both resistance training on my lunch and swimming tonight, I'm OK with it.
