Today had planned to go canoeing, but the weather didn't agree...so I came home and worked my butt off.
Did a 20 min. "Lite and Fit" workout that consisted mostly of yoga-type moves and a few arm exercises with weights, and a 13 min quick pilates video.
Decided that wasn't enough, went to the gym at my apartment complex - 25 min stationary bike at high speed, 20 min on stairclimber sweating my little heart out, and 35 min or so doing arm/leg exercises on the weight machine.
This got me within 25 minutes of my May exercise goal...guess I underestimated? (Well, I know why I estimated the way I did, was supposed to be out of town on business next week but that was cancelled, so I was planning on not being able to do my regular routine but i'll be able to.)
I'm having one of those carry on days too! I biked this morning, did aerobics this afternoon and just came in from the garden. I can't believe I'll be able to watch TV from now til bed without doing some kind of weights.
But I'm starving!!!!
Well, it's not really formal exercise, but my friends and I spent the entire day (from 10-6) at a local Renaissance Festival and I was actively walking for at least 6 of those hours. Talk about blisters!
Rebounder = mini trampoline. I jog on mine, going 2 min as fast as I can and 3 at about the speed you'd go if jogging. There was a thread about rebounders here: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/show...rban+rebounder
If I push myself hard on the rebounder, I go much faster during the 3 min recovery, and literally go all out on the 2 min where I go high speed, getting my heart rate up to 170 or so (85% of max). Most days, I keep between 140-160, which is approx 60-75% of my max.
