Day 6 of the 30-day yoga program that I'm doing was a HIIT workout. Who knew you could do HIIT with yoga? I don't imagine it was as intense as when using other methods, but it definitely got my heart rate up and used lots of muscles.

Gardenerjoy, belated CONGRATS :cheer2: on accomplishing the 'easiest' of your goals! You are really a shining star for us to follow :)

I have been having a hard time keeping to my very easy goal. I caught a cold on Dec. 17th and I am STILL stuffed up/running nose/cough/goop/sinuses/teeth pressure. I'm pretty sure it's a sinus infection at this point. I will give it a couple more days and then see a doctor/urgent care facility.

I have not been able to do ANY non-essential workouts! Just shoveling/snow throwing. But I will doggedly still add it to my list.

VermontMom: Hope you're feeling better soon! I think we should be giving ourselves credit for our January victories, hollow as they may seem. So, here's our list:

etherbunny: 5 days/week
gardenerjoy: 1300 minutes, 8x stretch, 8x ST
Tabbycat: 900 minutes
VermontMom: 600 minutes

gardenerjoy 01-20-2020 09:27 AM

I tried Day 8 of the 30-day yoga program that I'm doing and it was way too challenging. So, I went back to Day 1, which is challenging enough. I think I'll repeat the first week a couple of times until I'm less shaky in the poses and, then, tackle Day 8 again. I am feeling stronger. That was a New Year's goal, so that's good! And, we're only three weeks in. I don't have to be in a rush about this. Avoiding injuries is the fastest path to getting stronger.
