I need somewhere to post my exercise and non exercise days. Before things got so crazy in my life and I was comming around every day, sometimes more, we had a good exercise thread where we all reported what exercise we did for the day. I've tried getting in on the exercise section of this site, and also since I really love doing Oxycise, I've tried getting into their site, but it's just not home like this is.
Anyone want to join me in a daily, or whenever account of our exercise?
In case I have some takers, I'll start
This morning I did my L1 Oxycise tape, rode the stationary bike 20 (I know it's supposed to be 30, but I'm being honest here)minutes and now I'm getting ready to go to the health club for water aerobics. Since it's been a while since I've been to a MWF class, I'm not sure which one to go to, but I think I'll go to the deep water class. It's a harder more aerobic class than the one in the warm water pool. The warm water pool has a class they call ABC Allover Body Conditioning, and I think I probally need the running the do in the regular deep water class. And yes we wear flotation belts to keep us up.
Wow, aren't you all ambitious? Well, I'm about to go outside for some raking, mowing and digging, and I'll use my bowflex tonight. I'll probably fit in some dancing with my preschooler---that's usually good for the heart rate. (and it's fun to be silly!)
I understand how I can find time to exercise, I don't have any kidlets or doggage, and DH works midnites so he's asleep in the evenings, but how in the world do the Moms out there manage?
I feel too sick to do anything today, but I did do big time house pick up. I like my tredmill but have been too sick last few days. Will post when I can, Tazcat
Dyan, moms like me don't manage!! My mom and daughter laugh uproariously when I do my videos in the living room, so I won't do it anymore! Hmph, and how can I make time to go to the gym? Well, we walk our neighborhood when it's nice out, so that's about all I do anymore!
Another reason I wouldn't make a good mama, I'm selfish about my "me" time. I do make a good step-mama though, spoil DSS and send him back home. Besides he's great for exercise. We play tag around this huge play structure built like a castle, up and down stairs until I finally catch him or pass out trying.
When I got to the health club yessterday morning I discovered they now have an ADVANCED aerobic class. needless to say I jumped right in. Boy am I sore!!! Anyone who thinks you don't get sore from water aerobics has not had the righrt class.
Today will be my regular T/T class. It's called 50+ Circuit Training and we use a variety of tools to simulate a full body workout on the circuit machines. It's for the special section of 50+ members and I am glad to report I am by far the youngest in the group!!!
I'm off to do my Oxycise and then ride my bike before I leave. Hope everyone else has a great workout.
Monday - Didn't get to the gym. Did some gardening at home and did a bunch of archiving at work, (think packing up 50 boxes and moving them upstairs, lots of bending, stretching, and lifting.) plus a snuggle with the DH last night. That should count for something!
Today - packed for the gym. Debating on trying the aquacise class.
Three days in a row!!! Maybe that's a record for me. But alas, all good things come to an end. I can't go to the club today because I have an appointment for a perm. I've battled this straight hair as long as I can stand it. I did do my Oxycise tape and 25 minutes on the bike.
