Default 300+ Sassy September Exercise Thread


to the September exercise thread! We're making exercise a habit, giving ourselves some accountability, and getting healthier in the process!

In this thread, we track the number of MINUTES we exercise for the month -- whether it's walking or swimming or sweaty housework! Most of us set goals for ourselves (I personally will not exercise much without a goal). If you are a goal-setter, early in the month set your own goal! If you're just getting started, feel free to start with a smaller number of minutes (I did!), maybe just a few hundred. It seems easier for many of us to build on the habit rather than meet a very high goal right away. However, you can also just jump right in without a goal, and you can join us anytime in the month!

I'm just starting out with exercise after years of being a couch potato. Today I walked 10 minutes on the treadmill.

As last month, I'm not setting a goal. The plan is 2 days of 60 mins walking (treadmill or outside) and 3 days of lifting (~60 mins, but the stage I'm in at the moment is short, but hard). I did 1310 mins last month.

So, today I did 40 mins strength training.

Group total: 45 + 40 + 10 = 95 mins (added in IrishCoda's mins)

Hi Guys,

Once again I am going to shoot for 2000 minutes. I missed my August goal of 2000 minutes by 45 minutes! UGH! I will try harder this month. I post my exercise each Sunday and will continue to do that.

Blessings,
Annie

I'm like Texscrapper, mostly sedentary and starting to get active. I did 15 minutes on the treadmill.

Group total: 145 + 15 = 160
