Daily Exercisers (week of 12/16)

[Kathy B]

Hi, all! Did some yoga yesterday, but that was all I got in. Today, 60 min on the TM, then walked another 10 since I was watching a good movie (Cinderella Man). Then I sat down and folded laundry and wrapped packages while I watched the rest of it! :p

What are you up to today?

Hi Kathy, 60 minutes on the trainer this morning while watching VH1 Jump Start. First time I watched VH1 in years and it's not the format I remember but still good for killing time.

[Melman]

I did about 40 minutes of weights yesterday followed by 20 minute of cardio. I had hoped to go today but ran out of hours in the day. I'll be there tomorrow though.

[Kathy B]

40 minutes of TM for me today. I would have liked to have done more, but the kids only had a half day, and I had some things I wanted to get done before they got home.

Kim, what is VH1? Do you mean a VHS movie? (I am techno challenged, so if it's a dumb question, please ignore me!)

Did you get something in today, Melanie? Anyone else?

[Melman]

I successfully made it to the gym tonight. My goal was a cycling class taught by my favorite instructor. I've been in class on Tuesdays ALL semester and this was my first chance. I got there early only to find out all the bikes were already reserved, but we decided that some people in the warm-up/beginner half-hour would leave....only to find out the instructor was sick and there was a sub. <sigh> I did 40 minutes on the treadmill.

Anyone next?

[kimmer99]

I'm about to go get on the trainer. Kathy - don't worry VH1 is a channel, like MTV - video music; it used to be mellow rock but the other day it was playing a lot of R&B and rap. We get four video music channels and by the afternoon none of them seem to play music :confused: which I like watching/listening when I'm working out.

[Kathy B]

Oh, that does sound kind of familiar actually. We have a few music channels, too, but I generally opt for a recorded movie or a Law and Order rerun. It's surprising how many of the "reruns" I haven't seen.

60 min on the TM for me today.

Anyone else?

[Kathy B]

Back to report some yoga this AM. Not my usual short show, today it was Inhale with Steve Ross.

Good work everyone!

I'm skulking back in after being MIA for a while:p Today was 40 minutes on the elliptical with some ab work afterward. The boys had their last final today, so I will (thankfully) have some extra motivation to get to the gym during the next two weeks!

I did 40 minutes on the Wave cardio machine last night and did a full workout with weights this morning.

[DmOrtega]

I can't wait until Christmas is offically over. There are just too many social commitments during this time of year and I don't get how everyone has the time daily for 1-2 hour workouts right now. Heck, I have time issues all year round.

The flu is going around at work and at home, so we've been sick for a week now. I missed all play time and 2 days of my morning yoga but the moment I felt good enough I started up again. I really do feel better although not back to myself yet. Next week I'm off on vacation so I hope to make up for lost time. :)

[kimmer99]

Spaghetti legs! I have spaghetti legs - did 40 minutes working with a trainer in the gym - and my legs feel like mush. Now I need to have some lunch and go get on the bike for an hour; hope I can pedal.

[Kathy B]

Did another longer yoga session this AM, and I just finished 45 min on the TM with a few intervals thrown in.

No need to skulk, Sheila, we all go AWOL once in a while! :D Good job on the elliptical and abs. I need to get back to doing abs...

DmOrtega, sorry things are stressful for you right now. It probably is just as well you took a break from exercise if you have been sick with the flu. Take it slow as you start back up again. And enjoy your week off! :)

Good job on your workouts Melanie and Spaghetti legs! ;)

[Minky]

Today I did "the treadmill workout" from Fitness and upper-body weights. I'm fairly sure I'll be sore in the morning;)

Sheila

[Melman]

I did the Friday night yoga class. I had forgotten what it felt like to do a full workout the day prior to yoga. "No, don't worry...that sound of someone in pain is only the person at the end of the row." :D Ouch! But what a great class!

Good going everyone else from Spaghetti Legs to Kathy to the no-long-MIA-Sheila and anyone I didn't remember to name. :D

Who's next?
