**Got to the gym late today and only had time for a 35 min workout. They're open 24 hours on the weekdays, and 7AM-7PM Sat & Sun. Had lunch with some friends and went swimming, so our gym time was cut short. Totally worth it. In other news, I'm down 1.4 lbs this week. Happy with the progress but I feel like I could be doing more, workout-wise. Great job everyone! Keep at it!

Question for the ladies doing swimming: are ya'll swimming in your own pools or using a gym?
We are lucky enough to have a beautiful, HUGE pool in our apt. complex. It was closed most of last year, but they've had it open for a while now. It helps that they installed a gated entry so we can use it even after office hours/on weekends! It was closed for about 2 days due to some vandalism over 4th of July weekend. During that time the BF & I called around trying to get price quotes on fitness centers that had pools. OMG EXPENSIVE!! So happy they had the pool fixed in record time, considering how slow our apt. complex is sometimes with other things.
I highly recommend adding swimming to your routine. It's a fun and easy exercise that burns a TON of calories!
Goal: Move as much as possible!! (I am traveling a lot this month)
July 1: Elliptical and Weights (75 minutes)
July 2: Exercise Bike (60 minutes)
July 3: Treadmill (65 minutes), Elliptical (15 minutes), and Weights (15 minutes)
July 4: Elliptical (65 minutes)
July 5: Exercise Bike (60 minutes) and Treadmill (20 minutes)
July 6: Elliptical (65 minutes), Treadmill (15 minutes), and Weights (15 minutes)
July 7: Elliptical (65 minutes)
July 8: Elliptical (20 minutes), Exercise Bike (25 minutes), and Treadmill (20 minutes)
July 9: Walking (120 minutes)
Do you do 65min straight on the elliptical, or split up throughout the day? I do 30 min straight/day and I thought that was alot!! Thinking maybe I should do more?
7/13: 30 min Aerobics video, 10 minutes of crunches, 20 min in gym @ work (weight machines)
7/14: 30min Aerobics video, 10 minutes of crunches, 10 minutes on stair stepper, 20min in gym @ work

Goal: 5 days of gym work-out, take bike to work 3 days (50mins a day)
7/10: gym (30mins cardio + 20 mins strength) + bike ride after dinner 30mins
7/11: rest day + bike to work (50mins)
7/12: gym (25 mins cardio + 20 mins strength)
7/13: bike to work (50mins) + gym (30 mins cardo + 20 mins core)
7/14: gym (30 mins cardio + 20 mins weights) - no bike to work due to stormy weather
7/15: AM > walked for an hour + PM did 'The 100 Workout'
7/16: gym (30 mins elliptical + 15 mins bike + 15 mins core-training)
--
The 100 Workout is just crazy! Depending on the seriousness of my muscle ache when I wake up I am considering adding it to my week. But I also want to start c25k within a few weeks - so don't want to burn out?!
Edit: So, I am wondering - can one get 'addicted' to excersise? It's not like I go 3 times a day, but I notice on my rest days I cant resist temptation and just WANT to move/be active for atleast half an hour or so. It's like there's way more energy building up in my body than before!
