I thought I would start a thread that might help keep us accountable for exercising. Post on here what you did today for exercise. Come back daily and use this thread as an exercise log.

I hired a personal trainer a couple of weeks ago- she really worked my rear end today!! Lol! But I LOVE that I was ABLE to do the exercises she gave me!!!

Getting ready for zumba

Hiked 3 miles with a 40 pound pack. Getting ready to hike the Appalachian Trail in June!

Walked the neighborhood, about 3 miles.

Ive got a chronic pain problem ....swimming is my sport but until incisions are healed, that's out! So today I walked 3 miles with my dog and did arm curls. I also bought Richard Simmons low impact aerobic and toning DVDs. Hoping i can do those without kicking up the pain. This is a good thread to keep me motivated.

Got on my new favorite cardio machine at gym. Arc trainer. Burned 530cal, went 1.3 miles for 45 min. then did weight lifting for 25 min on different machines for back, shoulders, chest muscles and an ab cruncher for a few min. Don't know how many calories I do lifting weights. That cardio machine is fun. I was getting sick of treadmill.

Waled 3 miles

I feel your pain! But I have got to say it SO good to have the energy to do all of my yard work!! Mowing with a push mower, weeding and raking... I would have NEVER been able to do any of that last year!! It's tough work, but I am thankful for it! (burns some calories too!!)
