What Exercise Did You Do Today?



Recommended Posts

Didn't do organized exercise today, but took the stairs several times in effort to squeeze in some exercise. I'm trying to find a used treadmill so I can get up and jog in the mornings while my son is still sleeping. I want to start yoga as well. You've inspired me to get back into it!

Hey Tina Bree,

How is your exercise Quest going? Keep at it! Even if it is 10 minutes a day. Be like Nike... Just Do It!!

I run 4 miles a day, every day... I love to run :) sometimes I switch up and do my eliptical. I work out a minimum of 1 hour a day, I keep my heart rate up and thank my blessings that I can do all this at 54 !!!!

That's awesome... I'm 4 days post surgery. All I can tolerate right now is walking up and down my hallway for 10 minutes every 3-4 hours.

That is awesome! I hope that I can build up to that after surgery. For now, walking and stair climbing are my daily dose. Gotta get more exercise in!

i am three weeks post op and walked several miles yesterday. Today I am paying for it. My abdomen is very sore. But I can tell that the walking helped. Walking is the only thing I can do. I still am too sore to lift or move my arms a lot. I am eager to use the elliptical machines at the gym. These are my favorite exercise machines because they put less stress on the joints.

I do have to walk very slowly. When I first start walking my abdomen is very sore. But when I keep walking, that soreness seems to go away. I still have my drain in (and I am really tired of that drain but I had excessive bleeding) and I find that the hole in my abdomen that it goes through is very sore.

Didn't go to the gym yesterday or today, feeling run down with a cold. Plan to get back in there tomorrow and this post will help hold me to it.

I have to confess I have not done a thing today! It's dark out and raining. I know that's an excuse! I need to learn to just make the time. I am one of those that does not like to exercise. I will work on that.
