I'll be out of town next week, so my exercise plan is quite different than normal. I plan to walk for at least 60 minutes each day (pushing a big ol' double stroller with a 20 & a 28 pounder in it)! Alternating 20-30 minutes of pilates and abs every other day. I've never stuck with the exercise while on vacation and I intend to stick to it next week.

I have had soem injuries over the past week with my neck and am currently taking motrin 800 for it. I am not sure where I am with exercise as I have not been to the gym in over one or more weeks. I want to solve this. I might go today after work but I need to see how the neck feels today after sitting at the computer all day.

I feel fat and sluggish. If I feel ok today I am going to the gym and work out on the elliptical trainer for 25 minutes and then maybe the hot tub to relax.

The rest of the week?
Tuesday: Meet with Personal Trainer.
Wed.: Walk for an hour somewhere and some how
Thursday: Go to the gym and do something. 25 minutes on the elliptical
Friday: Walk with my boyfriend
Saturday: Gym
Sunday is my day off.
Wish me luck. I am up 2.5 pounds since last week. My depression over this makes me feel like I weigh 50 pounds more than I do now!

I tried to post my plan, and it logged me out. It hates me.

So, this week will be mostly the same as last: 60 minutes of DDR and 20 minutes of weight training daily. I'm thinking about buying a jump rope. I could do that. Also, I'm going to add in 10 minutes of calisthenics (jumping jacks, push-ups, sit-ups) on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Maybe 20 minutes of yoga on weekends. I think I'd like to be flexible. I never have been . . . not even as a kid.

For me it's simple. 280 mins of movement - whenever, wherever. I'll just be walking and I am going to try and do several small sessions per day because I am not up for any long sessions...yet!

So, it's Monday, and I'm finished for the day. I'm exhausted. My legs are swollen. If anyone has any good suggestions for exercise that doesn't involve anything below my waist, Ill love you forever. Otherwise, swollen, achy legs.

Walk on your hands!!!! Seriously, swimming with a pull buoy, works for me, makes your arms really hurt though!

I couldn't do 15 minutes on stairmaster, I conked after 10, so I jumped on the eliptical, then went back for another 5 minutes on the stairmaster! I was proud of myself, because I hate that thing, with a passion. It's evil. But my butt loves it, it's really nice now, it looks like a plate of white chocolate mousse now, instead of a heaping bowl of jello!!!

I'm having a suprise day off tomorrow, so am going to swim, and cardio and Rockstar!

Whew, just back from the gym.

Good news is that it was quite a bit cooler today (gym is not air-conditioned), bad news is that I'm on the coast, and that means it was humid. I felt like I was taking a self-generated shower during cardio, but I survived.

Weights were a bit sketchy today- I'm guessing I did about 90% effort. My SO still had a machine to do when I finished, so I got back on the bike and made up for it a bit.

Man, do I crave salt... guess it's salted low-fat cottage cheese for my afternoon snack today. And then a shower-generated shower!

Kykaree - Your comment made me wonder if I could in fact walk on my hands. I could still do a handstand . . . 6 years ago. Why not? Well, I tried it, and, alas, I fell on my head. Perhaps, if I make a contraption that'll hold my lower body, I could walk around the house on my hands. Hmm. Interesting thought. Perhaps a plank between two bicycle wheels . . .

Popping on to say my goal for this week is: 300 minutes on the bike, in any number of sessions. I start a new job this week, so I'm going to play the timing by ear. I just need to get the minutes in whenever and however.

I'll do it!

Great plans everybody! And some of you are off to a great start already!

Got in my Tae Kwon Do and strength training. Might go for a run tomorrow instead of the Tae Bo, gonna do a 5K in June so I'd better get my running legs ready.

I didn't get home in time to go to the pool yesterday, so my schedule is:

Tues: swim 5 laps
Weds: swim 6 laps
Thurs: swim 7 laps
Fri: swim 8 laps

I went to the gym yesterday and got a new program for lifting weights. I worked with the trainer for about an hour. I also got on the elliptical for 25 minutes. Not bad considering I have not been to the gym in over a week and a half. On my plan for the week I said I would go walking today but I might just head back to the gym again after supper. (It's a ten minute ride from home.) Either way I am going to do something.
