Hi everyone. This is the Exercise accountability thread for March!

All are welcome to join us and post your days exercise!

Lets get'er done!!!!

[Diva]

We had a line @ everyone's fav Treadmill today, grrrrrrrr. I hate when that happens...

Anyhoo, I did 10 minutes on the Elliptical (hated it!), Weights, and then 30 on the TM. I may go back later on....

40 minutes of cardio a day. To up my normal 30.

My goal is to exercise every day & I try for at least an hour. That's the ideal. Life usually intervenes, though, and I miss a few days each month.

1: One hour swimming class, 30 minutes bike, 15 minutes rowing
2: 15 minutes yoga & stretches (housebound after snowstorm )
3: 45 minutes elliptical, 15 minutes rowing, 10 minutes dumbbells
4: One hour bike
5: One hour elliptical (because I have saddle sores from the bike)

22: One hour swiming class
23: One hour yoga class
24: 45 minutes elliptical, 15 minutes rowing
25: One hour bike
26: One hour bike (and someone at the gym asked me if I was a cyclist -- whoo hoo! -- because I was spinning so hard ); 15 minutes dumbbells
27: 45 minutes elliptical, 15 minutes rowing
28: 15 minutes dumbbells, one hour swimming class
29: 45 minutes elliptical, 15 minutes rowing
30: One hour yoga class
31: 45 minutes elliptical, 15 minutes rowing, 15 minutes dumbbells

Not bad for the month of March. There was only one day where I missed my usual hour of exercise, and that was because of a snowstorm. At the end of March, with the month going out like a lamb, it's hard to remember how fiercely it came in like a lion that particular day.
I'm getting Jillian's 30-day shred video for contingencies like that snowstorm day, though it may upset my landlady to hear me thumping overhead.

ETA: I can't believe this, but I have to admit, I feel somewhat guilty that I didn't get in an hour of cardio **every single day** in March. Intellectually, I know that's insane, and I should be glad for the good work I have done. But I'm always left feeling that I could be doing more. I need to watch that -- it's my self-defeating perfectionism, which raises its head again & again in so many areas within my life.
