My exercise goal for the rest of the month starts tomorrow: Get back to the gym! I always avoid the gym in January, it's so darn crowded...but thins out again around February. I have to grin and bear the crowd and just go. I will get up early to do so tomorrow, I haven't been since December!
I made a goal to do yoga every day and so far have been right on track Will continue to do it daily, it really makes my body feel good!

We are halfway through the month and I'm nearly halfway there. That's great, but I realized at this rate I won't earn any extra $.
My goal for January is to complete a total of 15 workouts (averaging 3 per week, but allowing flexibility if needed). I also have built in a little incentive for myself if I meet my challenge ($40 to buy books), with the potential to earn extra for each additional workout completed ($5 extra per workout).
1- 1/2/14, 20 minutes walking 3.5 mph, 30 minutes strength training
2- 1/3/14, 60 minutes walking on treadmill (10 3.5 mph, 50 3.0 mph)
3- 1/4/14, 60 minute brisk walk at the lake
4- 1/5/14, 60 minute brisk night walk
5- 1/7/14, 45 minutes strength training
6- 1/13/14, 60 minutes strength trainjng
7- 1/16/14, 40 minutes strength training
