Ah this is exactly what I need!

So my general exercise goal is just to be more active consistently. Some days I'm literally in the house all day doing nothing and others I'm out doing quite a lot. I need some balance.

I'll be in the house mostly for the next while so far

12th - lateral stepper
13th - 30 minutes lateral step twister/yoga/pushups/squats/crunches
14th - no exercise
15th - 530cals on stepper. Push ups/yoga/squats/crunches
16th - 30 minute vigorous cycle
17th - some trampoline jumping with a kid and a quick cycle (my bum got wet it had been raining haha) I had cramps today so haven't done anything else. Really lacking energy.
18th - 35minute vigorous cycle.. then all the usual pushups etc (even though I didn't wanna)
19th - A cycle which ended up in me being battered with hailstones! 15 minutes. It was the same route as usual but tyres got pumped up so it was easier.
20th - 400cals on stepper. pushups etc
21st - can't remember.. cycling?
22nd - TOM
23rd - 15 minutes on stepper
24th - 15 minutes zumba/20 minutes stepper



I keep forgetting to update this!

2/4/12- 25 minutes running

9/4/12- 60 minutes gym
14/4/12- 28 minutes running


78/300 running, 60/240 minutes gym so far

I think I was waay over ambitious with this! We're half way through but I've only just done 25% of my goal...

Tabbycat here.

April 15: morning jog and swim

Day 3 of 12


PaintedButterfly, I'm in the same position! Halfway through the month and only a quarter to my goal. But I pulled it out in the last half of the month in Feb and March. So we can do this! (I usually need every day of that last week, though.)

I was away for the weekend, but I still got my long run in on Saturday! It felt really good, and I'm feeling much more confident about the upcoming 10K. I will be slow, but I have no doubt that if I can pace myself properly I will be able to complete it.

Welcome, LeilaJey! You're welcome to track your exercise here! If you want to set a goal for the rest of the month, let me know and I'll add you to the list. Or it makes perfect sense to track for the rest of this month and then use that information to form a goal for May.
Cool that you're in Ireland. I have trip planned there this year and I'm so excited!

PaintedButterfly: You're doing great! Think of it as data. If you overestimated this month, you'll have better information for setting a goal next month. And, like Tabbycat said, it's amazing how much you can pull off at the end of the month -- I've occasionally managed hours of exercise in the last three or four days just so I could meet my goal!

Welcome Elize31! 300 minutes of exercise in a week is a great goal!

I'm off pace to meet my goal, too, but hopeful that I'll catch up in the last half of April.
