Maintainers moving in July!
New month, new thread! What are you all moving this month?
|
Oh, good, a place where I can keep myself accountable for what I do, as I adapt to the "new normal."
July 1: 60 minutes cardio on the elliptical, half backward, resistance at 8 & set at the interval program. (When the resistance hits 12 & I am going backward, it's excruciatingly slow & I envy my neighbors bouncing along confidently.) 60 minutes Pilates class. My balance issues made going up on my toes at the end the hardest part. The instructor (whom I love) put us through her arm workout. We sit cross-legged & use only two 2lb or 3lb weights & yet this is a killer. The movements are continuous without breaks & are a cross between recognizable dumbbell movements & a dancer's gestures. (I need to read up on this & why it's so difficult even with low weights. The only man in the class had just as much difficulty as any of the women.) |

10 mile bike ride, just under 45 mins July 2: rest, I might walk the dog when I get home |

Had to miss classes: On Saturday, life beckoned. July 11: 60 minutes weights, 45 minute spin class |
July 3: brick workout!
13 miles on the bike, just under 1 hour, split up as follows: - 15 min warmup - 5x5min high intensity w/2min recovery - cooldown until I got back home hop off the bike and grab running gear for 30 min run (2.5 miles) in a negative split -- first 15 min slow, then fast for the second 15 mins. I about died. (Okay, I didn't actually nearly die, but I did nearly puke.) July 4: swim/bike brick! - about 20 mins swimming in the reservoir, not sure on the time since DH had his watch and the one I ordered hasn't come yet - immediately followed by biking the 16 miles home from the park, which was full of hills, some of which were quite steep - 10 min walk with the dog to cool down |
July 5: rest day
