7403+40=7443

On Friday I did 45 minutes on the elliptical and yesterday 30 minutes of walking, bringing my total to 420.

The group total is now 7,443 + 75 = 7,518

Hooray for having the day off rom work--I just got back from a 60-minute walk! That brings me to 120 minutes of exercise just for today! I needed toothpicks for the chicken roll-ups I want to make for dinner, so I walked to the second-closest grocery store to my apartment (the first closest was just too close ;) ).

Personal: 455/900

Group Total: 60 + 7,518 = 7,578 :carrot:

17 minutes on the elliptical.

I just got back from the gym and did 90 minutes of exercise -- 10 min elliptical, 60 min weight training and another 20 min elliptical.

I can't believe I am starting to get in over 60 min of exercise several days a week!

Group total ~ 7688 + 90 = 7778 min

WTG Heather!

For me, 39 minutes "dance it off"--I did the "hip-hop," latin, and ballet segments along with the warm up and cool down. Of course I was mostly tripping during the latin segment and I keep falling over during the ballet parts, but I can follow a little better each time.

Group total: 7778 + 39 = 7817

Personal Total: 555 of 1500

Group Total: 7817 + 85 = 7902

Group total ~ 7902+135= 8037

I like to find ways to see how my performance improves over time in whatever physical activity I'm doing -- whether it's how long I can do it, or intensity or competence!! I think it really helps to pay attention to things like that!!! Plus, it sounds like you're having fun!

Okay, finally got the core routine in that I've been thinking of doing for days...
15 min.

Group total ~ 8037 + 15 = 8052 min

With everything going on, I don't think I ever put up my goal for the month. I was going to be boring and stick with 1200 mins, but seeing as I have done quite well so far (1010 mins), I think I will increase it to 1500. I could probably go higher, but with going back and forth to visit Mum, I can't really guarantee how much I'll get done.

Since the beginning of the year I have managed to walk most days (I've had 3 rest days I think) for a minimum of 60 mins. This has been a mix of walking on my own and with Neil. We tend to walk about 7 or 8 kilometres each time (about 4.5 miles on average), although I do get a little bit further when I am on my own. Poor Neil is still getting used to this 'aerobic' stuff.

Personal Goal... 1010/1500 mins, leaving 490 mins left of January's goal

Group Total... 8,633 + 1010 = 9,643

Zelma

Jeepers .. I keep forgetting to come in here and put in my minutes .. I think I will set myself the target of coming in here every weigh in day and add my weekly amount. Im not setting any targets this month, so far it hasnt been as much as I would have done if I hadnt lost my motivation midway .. thanks to joining the gym I hope that will be changing tho ... anyway .. a mix of WATP, Richard Simmons, Pilates and walking I have been doing off an on all month so far.

My total to Jan 17 : 540 minutes.

Group Total: 540 + 9643 = 10183 minutes (please double check my total before posting lol .. my brain is fluffy tonight).

Last night - 30 minutes of yoga, 15 minutes of weights total 45.
This morning - 21 minutes on the elliptical.

Personal Goal 396/600

Group total: 8633 + 66 = 8699!

Katt -- Your totals are right, but Lilion used an older number to add to (I think that happens when we don't start at the most recent page).

Group total~ 10,183 + 66 (from Lilion) = 10,249 minutes

I have nothing to add from yesterday, I was a slug!

Personal Total: 720 of 1500

Group Total: 10,249 + 75 = 10,324

Well...now that I finally exercised, I can some minutes here! I did 40 minutes yesterday...

Group Total: 10,324 + 40 = 10,364

And my personal goals is 40 minutes 5x a week. So for the rest of January = 440 minutes.

10,364+40=10,404

just ten minutes, but they were Pre-work morning minutes - in addition to whatever I get in at night, so I'm hoping it's the beginning of a new good habit! Besides, 10 is easy to add to the total LOL

10 + 10,404 = 10,414

personal goal 421+30= 451/1000

Group total ~ 10414+30= 10444

I did some strength training this afternoon for about 20 minutes.

Personal: 475/900

Group Total: 20 + 10,444 = 10,464 :carrot:

45 minutes of kick boxing

Group total: 10,464+45=10,509

Simone .. love your idea of setting a target for the rest of the month .. will join in on that .. 40 minutes minimum 5x a week ... so to the end of January (inc today) is an extra 400 minutes .. actually .. as I have over 500 already I will make it 1000 minutes this month instead (so much for no target rofl).
