i've been posting in the April weight loss challenge and have decided to try and set up some exercise goals for the reast of the month.

monday, wednesday, and friday: weights (arms) and crunches (we have a weight bench in the garage and my bf spots me.)
tuesday, thursday, saturday and sunday: park (if the weather is good; if not biggest loser video)

today i had a great workout at the park. i walked 45 minutes, jogged for 15 minutes and did about 5 minutes worth of sprints and incline type walking.

i've been getting creative at the park sprinting back and forth between trees and trying to increase my speed each time. sprints are really effective for the rear- end area btw. lol. i've really been enjoying my time there and hope this summer isnt going to be too hot.

Meow Mix-You're right. It has been quiet without Tummy here and some people taking some time off, but I'm confident we'll get back on track here very soon! I was gone quite a bit this last weekend, but I'll be back more consistantly now.

I was hoping to do levels one and two of the 30 Day Shred today, but couldn't make myself go on after the first one. That's what I don't like about that DVD. If I could set it up to start automatically, I could do it. Also, I'm coming down with something--sore throat, cough and headache at night and in the morning (when I work out), so it made for a bad night's sleep and heavy chest this morning.

MsP: running for 75 minutes is awesome! I can't imagine. Or rather I can, and it makes me want to lie down and rest...

Meow Mix: I envy the time and devotion you put into exercise. Do you do it all at once or some in the morning, some later?

MeowMix 04-12-2010 12:34 PM

Ms Perception: Good to have you back! And I'm sure you're right, it will pick up.

LouisaH: Normally I get it all done in the mornings, that way I don't have to think about it the rest of the day. Sometimes if I over sleep or something I'll do it later in the day or if I'm feeling energetic and want to get in some extra elliptical time I'll pop on and get some in. That's where being a stay at home mommy comes in handy! Put her down for a nap and get in an extra 20.

Louisa-It is super quiet on here right now. Weird! I know for me, my 3 kids just started soccer and time is defintely shorter, but I'm trying to make it a priority to be accountable on here since it keeps me on track.
