Lets Post our Daily Exercise

Did Zumba tonight after taking a week off, my back was sore from shoveling snow.

Love the beach picture!

Here are the Wednesday Walking Women walking around the indoor track at the local high school. I am going to college basketball playoff games tonight & subbing the next two days so will have to exercise on my own....boring!

The last two days I walked to and from my rads appointments, which is about 1.2 miles each day. I'll do something today, too - aiming for a 30-minute walk outside. It's nice out (which is relative, as it's probably always nice out here compared to what so many of you are dealing with this winter!).

Ruth, thanks for reaching out to me about the gathering in San Diego/Oceanside. With my work schedule, I don't yet it if I can do it or not, but I'd like to try.

I am am new to this thread. I am 6 weeks out from PFC and 2.5 weeks into. 5 week Rad tx plan. I searched this site for exercise commitments and found this thread. My goal is to improve my fitness and be optimistic that I will be able to get back to a good fitness level after all the BC tx. I need to take it slow and stay consistent and committed and have patience.

Wonderland, 4-7 inches in NC - Wow! We are only expecting less than an inch - thankful for that.

Welcome ladyb1234. This is a great thread. Take it easy and do what you can without overdoing. You will get there. Be warned, however, that once you get into a routine and get stronger and stronger and able to do more the 'Voices' come out and then you will not have an excuse. We encourage each other, regardless of how much (or in my case, how little) you do as long as you do something, if only to walk down to the mailbox or to the next driveway, or whatever.

30 mins on treadmill but then was on phone with a friend for 1-1/2 hours so walked back and forth from LR to kitchen for almost the entire time. Too bad I didn't have my fitbit on so can't say how many steps but it was lots.

Night sculpted friends.

Wonderland, my sister's dog is in Husky Heaven with all the snow you are getting. The only happy creature in North Carolina at the moment!

Welcome ladyb, you have landed in the perfect spot! It's 9:45pm and it's already -8......how low can you go?

My North Carolina sister's dog enjoying the unusually snowy weather!

She doesn't even want to come inside during the winter, but in the summer you will find her in the house draped over the air-conditioner vent!

won't be able to go to my livestrong class at the Y tomorrow because I am having a bone scan and an eye exam to see if they'll remove some cysts I have on my eyelids.

Then Friday I'll be leaving to Cancun to visit my dad who's I'll so I won't be back in the gym until March 11

I do a lot more walking in Mexico than I do here so that would have to be it while am away

Aurora, keeping fingers crossed for you and hope your dad feels better soon.

Another dancing fool here. Body Jam last night and salsa today.

Welcome ladyb! Monday and Tuesday I did circuit training and 45 minutes of Zumba today. I am going to try to incorporate some planks and crunches into my evening during the TV commercial breaks. I'll let you know how that goes - the hardest part will be getting out of this darn recliner!

Cold here too. Drove in snow for 2 1/2 hours this morning to get downtown. Luckily it cleared off and is sunny but very cold. I walked 25 minutes and then did shovel and sculpt for 15 and that's all I could stand. Arizona, another cruise, Cancun, California Dreamin II, they all sound good today!

Welcome, ladyb! Sorry you have to be here but glad to have you! Don't overdo it yet since you are still fresh out of surgery. I tried to do too much after my BMX and had all kinds of problems with seromas, etc.

I went to my rowing class last night, and we have a new coach who must think that we want to be professional athletes! What a workout on the rowing machines! Did an hour of erging with periodic bursts where we had to go "all out." Did that 10 times! The plus side was that she let us each pick a song to play for a one-minute burst. It was funny, we are all in our 50's-early 60's so she didn't know some of the songs we picked. But she liked them for power rowing and added them to her own playlist! Tonight I came home and did some planks and then some yoga before dinner. I am liking yoga more and more for the flexibility it's giving me (except my knee) and the peace it gives my psyche.

Keep up the good work ladies, at whatever pace you can do. I was thinking last night at rowing that one year ago I was heading into my last chemo treatment and it seemed like it was all I could do to climb a flight of stairs.

Martha 

Thanks for all the warm welcomes.

Cassie, Yay glad we are in this group together. After beginning to pick up my exercise a few weeks ago I had to try and find a group on the boards to help me stay committed! I am starting out slow but trying to be steady and do something each day. I am learning at the beginning that something maybe doing laundry, cleaning, etc. I notice these task put a lot of steps on my fit bit. LOL

I forgot to put on my fit bit yesterday until late so didnt get all my steps counted. My exercise yesterday was walking for 20 mins.

Aurora, hoping all goes well for the scan and that your dad is better quick. Welcome ladyb.

Pink pilates and two yoga classes in the afternoon on Thursday and now off to the gym (Friday morning) for freestyle step and body balance.
