January Exercise Challenge - First Things First!

[fairymum]

I saw this first last November but didn't get to complete it. We were helping family cope with a terminal illness. Trying to pick up the pieces now. I am in for 700 and I hot 30 min in yesterday on the treadmill.

112/1200 I am trying to walk in the morning and then a short walk after lunch.

Try avoiding walk after lunch or meal. I know it is said that after eating, a walk helps in digestion but in actually it is not so. It doesn't allow the body to acquire the protein and nutrients present in the food. Atleast a gap of 1 hour is required.

60/1000
Feels good to share this

I ran on tread mill for 20 minutes then got to ride the new spin bike which I got from spinning.com for around 30 minutes and did some cardio for the rest of time. Didn't get much to do today but riding that new bike felt awesome. Lost some calories too

Hi, I never got added the first time - could you please put me down for 1400 minutes?

Currently I'm at
Jan 1: 40 mins running outside
Jan 2: 60 mins downhill ski
Jan 3: resistance band training, 25 mins

for a total of 125 mins.

We got tons of snow! Temps have been in the negatives all day. Brr.

Yesterday- 75 mins hiking Tumamoc Hill (decreased my time! but this also means I earn fewer exercise minutes ) and 10 mins Well Girl challenge
Today- 50 min Zumba Toning class

Went to bed last night and remembered that I forgot to report on the day.

Had a cool experience yesterday, one of the VPs of the college who I don't really know (other than the occasional 'hi' if we pass each other in the hallway) stuck her head in my office and asked, "hey, Heather are you going to the gym again today? If so, I was wondering if you'd show me around. I'm a bit nervous about going by myself." Apparently, I've develped a reputation on the floor.

33 minutes

60/700 got a weekend jog in which is nearly a miracle. While I jogged my Mom bought my nearly 3 year old Aurora sneakers. Too cute!

220/2200 Thanks!

32 minute walk outside before the deep freeze hits tomorrow.

 

[araes2102]

Double workout today! 85 mins hiking Tumamoc with my BFF and then a 50 min zumba class (because my favorite instructor started a new class today and I wanted to support her )

45 minutes exercising to an old DVD. Tried to go outside but the roads are way too icy, even with my Yaxtrax on.
