Who can be active the most days in a row?

Sure that counts, Nancy!

Cooper and I are headed to the gym this morning.

 

I'm starting back up on Monday. I just need a few more days to recover. Going to the grocery store this morning was exhausting.

 

Today I carted Cooper around a BBQ in 100 degree weather for 3 hours. I deserve some serious activity points for that. :wine:

 

Yes, you do!
I did a 50 minute workout at the gym today.

 

Yesterday I went swimming with all 3 kids. Today I am going to the gym.

 

2 days ago I did nothing special. Yesterday I painted the boys' room. Today I am paying for painting- ouch, ouch, ouch. Today I'm thinking of walking to the library to limber up.

 

Painting would do it to me Michelle!

Yesterday, I swam with DH and today I did a Kenpo X workout DVD.

 

Yesterday I unpacked my desk and moved furniture a bit.

Today I made it to the gym and did a whopping five minutes on some cross trainer thing (OMG, that killed me!) and 30 minutes on a recombant bike.

 

Ok, so movement of any kind wasn't happening yesterday. We'll see what today holds. I clearly need to do some strength training as I was dying yesterday.

 

Today I went to the gym again. I think something might be wrong with one of my knees. Anyone ever had a sore knee? I don't know if I should put ice or heat on it.

 

Ice will reduce any inflammation, heat makes it feel temporarily better. You can alternate them for best resluts.

 

Accident or on purpose? :blbl:

----

I'm heading to the mall (b/c it's cooler there!), determined to walk it twice; pushing a stroller.

 

Funny you should mention that. I had gone back and fixed it to results, but then thought it was funnier as resluts. Seriously.

 

:rofl:

I did 50 minutes on the elliptical today

 

Today's plan?

I'm going to attempt to do ten minutes on the elliptical plus 30 on the treadmill.

 

I can't figure out how to turn the damn machines on. :lol:

I did 25 minutes on the cardio setting on the stationary bike. Kicked my butt!

 

The stationary bike kills me!

June 29th-I did 45 minutes on the elliptical and 15 on the stairmaster.
June 30th-Had to take the day off due to foot pain

 

can someone explain this thread to me?!. i looked at it when it began, but didn't post because it'd taken two days off out of 7 that week (so, i didn't work out "days in a row"). i'm not online very much but now i just looked in on it and the last person who posted hadn't worked out days in a row, either... just wondering what it's all about, then? i hate to miss out on anythign to do w/working out, lol!! (especially since i suck so much on the eating!) (and also cuz i've really been pushing myself and have been working out an average of 5 times/week for a month!).... anyways, just wondering.

wtg, everyone!

jl, you can post however many days you are active...it doesn't have to be a workout...it could be taking a walk around the neighborhood with the family or cleaning the house, etc. I did post about my day off because I wanted to be accountable to myself :blush: So feel free to post when you are active!

July 1: I did a walking cardio shape out workout on demand & a ton of cleaning around the house
July 2: 45 minutes on the elliptical and 15 on the stair master
July 3: 60 minutes on the elliptical & more cleaning
July 4: will be going to the gym to do sometime on the elliptical, stair master and treadmill.

 

yea, nancy, i understand about being active as opposed to actually working out. but my question was about "days in a row." i worked out a ton this past month (trying to get back into it!) but i didn't post it here cuz the post title is about consecutive days, i thought. so i was just asking about that!

Okay, I'm up to six minutes on the elliptical! (I figured out how to turn it on. :lol: )

So I know I said I wasn't counting my walk to and from the bus, but I'm counting it today!

5 blocks in
6 minutes on the elliptical
25 minutes on the bike
5 blocks out

 

:woo: for 6 minutes on the elliptical Bex and I would count those steps to the bus, especially with how hot it is outside!

Yesterday I did a 45 minutes workout on demand (Leslie Sansome 3 mile walk) and today I did the Leslie Sansome 2 mile walk and I will be going to the gym tonight and workout on the elliptical.

 

I was the biggest slacker last week and it shows on the scale. I'm up 2 lbs. Grr. Going the wrong way. I am back on track this week though. Today I did 10 minutes walking around the track, a good 40 minutes of strength training, 15 minutes bike and 10 minutes stairmill.

 

i went to boot camp last night (60 mins) and today i played basketball w/my lo's for a half hour.

jl (but, i still think we should change the title of the post, lol!)

 

Well originally I think we were gonna see who could do it the most days in a row...but I think everyone has missed at least one day now. I'll change it.

 

I had an idea, what if we do a monthly thread? I'll start one for July

 

I did 20 minutes of body sculpting today and 10 minutes of ab crunches. I finished my excersice with 5 minutes hulahoop.
