Yay Doughnut!! anything is better the nothing.

Glad to see more people posting on here.

Ilene- I'm with doughnut, I don't know where you find the energy! With the amount of exercise you do, you'll hit your goal in no time!!

Michelinwoman- trust me, I find it really hard to get up and go, I have only gone once this week so far. I'm not sure how I would do if I was working out at home, takes even more willpower. They say if you can do something for 2 months, it will become a habit. Gonna give it a try.

Liz- sorry to hear you get breathless so easily, do you have asthma? Good thing is exercising can only make it better.

Susan- sounds like your scurrying is actually turning out to be good exercise. Since I started doing fieldwork I have lost 7lbs just from scurrying after infants. So, there is something to be said for movement that just doesn't feel like exercise!

I have packed up my clothes for tomorrow and I am wearing my gym outfit to bed. Tomorrow I will go to the gym!! Back and biceps and the usually run on the treadmill. I've committed and I have no excuses!

Well the week has gone to plan. I feel good about it, even though I'm a bit tired for kickboxing tonight. It's a good job I love it otherwise I'd be a lazy bum!

Tomorrow we are even scheduling a game of frisbee Extra exercise!
Oh and I forgot to post this in my earlier thread on page 1, but on Sunday I am aiming for a 2 mile run. If I don't get round to it I'll do it in the gym on Monday.

I met all my exercise goals this week! Woo-hoo! It was pouring this morning, but I went to the Y and did a "bonus" cardio and lower body/core session. I'm visiting parents this weekend--just an overnight--so I feel OK about missing my usual Sun. morning Boot Camp class.

Anyway, this exercise thread is really helping me. Let's keep it going.

Great job on the exercise!

I have done pretty well this week. Stayed on plan with a few minor tweeks.

Wound up running MWF
LBWO M
UBWO Tu
FUll BWO TH

So I got strength training in. Not in the exact order that I had planned but all was accomplished and since this week has been particularly fatiguing for me (allergies?) I feel good about that.

I just couldn't bear running AND doing a LBWO on the same day. All is good and even after some weavy weighted squats yesterday I was able to get in 2.5 miles. Not as much as my normal run BUT the longest I have been able to run on a day after weights. And I put in plenty of sprints.

Now its time for my nap.

Happy weekend and thanks for this thread.

You guys have done great. congrats to those who have stayed on plan!!

I went to the gym this morning and I feel great!! going to try to go this weekend but I am swamped with homework and Grandma is coming on Sat.

I think that next week I can go to the gym a minimum of three times, I getting the hang of it.

I won't be doing any today for various reasons but I will tomorrow. I will. Honestly.

Ya, I'm with ya Doughnut. My mother in law is coming and the house is a mess. I will be cleaning all day, I guess I could count that!

Dana

I made all the workouts I planned this week. Originally, I said that I'd do 30 minutes on the tredmill today, but I think I'll give the cardio-kickboxing a try instead. I'm not a big class person and the class is a bit intimidating, but I'll give it a shot.

I'll let you know how it goes!! HAHAHA

I am soooo shallow! many of you know that I cannot get the hang of jogging. I can go a block or so but it's pretty pathetic and not getting much better. However ... today ...

My BIL is a round little truck driver. Not jolly, not pleasant. Basically sits, eats and sits some more. As I rounded a corner this morning, I spied his 82 y o Daddy waiting to pick him up from where he parks his truck. Two and one half blocks from his house! All he has to carry is a little duffle bag!

So I ran .... until I was out of sight. Legs darned near fell off!

Ilene,

I love the way that track your exercise :


I'm going to keep track of it this way:

Running: 0/3
Biking: 1/7
Gym: 1/4
Swimming: 0/2

I'm going to copy this idea for next week's exercise .

BTW, did it all go to plan?

I think I only walked five times and only once or twice was there any sort of jogging involved. And I only had one good lifting session.

Here's to a new week http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/show...89#post1673089
