60 min of bike and 50 abs

270min to go for my May goal (620)

400 abs to go for my may goal (500)

Cardio, stability ball, and crunches done this morning. Despite having a -very- slow start. Ever have one of those days, where everything just seems to take longer to get done? We call them "slow starts", and today was DEFINITELY one of them.

70 min of exercise nonetheless.

Mandalinn -- YES, I certainly was getting slow starts when we were getting all the rain, I feel much better now...

Today I did back and biked 17k...

250 min to go for May Goal 20 Min of threadmill... 8 running
370 abs to go for May goal! (30 abs)

Walked at mall 30 minutes

Added a 20 min ab workout (and changed my ticker goal from 30 hours of exercise this month to 40).

Good morning everyone! All I got done yesterday was about 20 minutes of aerobics. I had a sort of 'scurrying here and there' day. That's unsettling, isn't it?
But I suppose if the original plan was 20 minutes per day, then ....


Actually, I came back to say something. I started May kinda dragggin' but it really has helped me to have this thread.

Did my cardio/stability ball/crunches bit. Added a couple of new exercises/harder modifications to the exercises I did on the ball - I can definitely feel it in my behind.

On the not-so-good-news side, I dropped a 10 lb. hand weight on my baby toe. I think I may have broken it. Not so good.

Mandalinn ... your poor little toe. Is it amazing colours today?

I biked this morning, with my HRM and fooled a bit with intensity spurts ... is that cycling cycling? Was a bit wobbly when I got back home :)

Ouch! Poor little toe.

Yesterday I had to skip the gym because of a stupid meeting that ran long (it also ran pointless *sigh*) so all I could do was 30 mins on the eliptical in the living room. But every little bit counts!

Walked at mall 30 minutes

Okay, back to the routine! Today was 30 mins of spinning, 30 mins of light cycling (the instructor had to leave early, but I stayed and cycled on my own), and 1 hour of BodyPUMP.

I turn on the computer and here are you guys, reminding me that I've done NOTHING useful for DAYS! I'd better get at it here today. I guess that's what accountability is about :D

:coach: GET OUT THER SUSAN!!

Today I will bike to the gym, do arms, do some running on the dreadmill :tread: .....

Is it muggy your way Ilene? We had enormous thunder and lightening at about 5:30 this am, now the sun is out and it's sweltery!

Thanks for the boost. I'm looking forward to today really. I have mountains of laundry so my day is compartmentized into 45 or 40 minute segments ;) I should be able to plan my eating and exercise within that framework.

Good Morning! Sounds like everyone is having great workouts!

Get out there and sweat it off Susan- Even with the laundry!

I got 90 min of exercise since yesterday! 20 min threadmill 10streching (includes 50 crunches) with yoga ball and 60 aerobics this morning!

100 to go for my 620 min for May
270 abs to go! for mays goal!

We'll call it laundry circuits:)

Was away from computer for entire long holiday weekend, but was pretty active the whole time - Saturday I did my regular routine (brought my ball with me to my parents house) - 40 min cardio, 35 min stability ball. Sunday went fishing for the entire day - now, that sounds like a lot of sitting, but we were on a very steep slope, and I set myself up so that every time I needed new bait, I had to climb it...not to mention the AMAZING tricep workout that is casting a fishing line and the core work from sitting upright on that slope. So I actually ended up way MORE tired from 10 hours of fishing than from an hour of cardio.

Then I got really sick (we think it was heat exhaustion) and took Monday and Tuesday off - but was back on track today with my stability ball/cardio/abs routine.

Sorry to hear you were sick Mandalinn, but happy to hear you are feeling better...

Susan, YES it's extremely hot here but we didn't get any thunderstorms yet...

This morning I biked to the gym 2.5k did the dreadmill :tread: for 5k, then did arms (30 mins), it was so nice out I did another 18k on my bike... I feel good and thank gawd for AC...

My laundry circuits were interrupted by a notice that said we had a parcel at the post office. I did not hesitate to jump in my car (with AC) and go get it.

I did bike and it was very pleasant but I think we're under a t-storm watch or warning or something.

Trying to meet all my May exercise goals in one lunch break - I was one arm workout and 200 crunches short, so I did them both. I may do another stability ball session tonight, but I'm thinking being one short on one of my goals is acceptable to me. Still, it'd be nice to know that I met ALL goals, so it may happen.

Totals for the month:
Cardio workouts >30 min - 29 (goal = 25)
Stability Ball or Resistance Sessions - 24 (goal = 25)
Upper Body Workouts - 10 (goal = 10)
Lower Body Workouts - 6 (goal = 5)
Sets of 100 Crunches - 25 (goal = 25)
Exercise Minutes: 2470 (initial goal = 1800 min, revised goal = 2400 min)

Aerobics/Body Sculpt class 70 minutes

Didn't come anywhere near my goals for the month, but at least I made it to an hour spinning class and BodyPUMP today. Ah well, next month: more realistic goals!!
