What Exercise Did You Do Today?

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.

    Walked my neighborhood...and realized the walk that 2 months ago took me 35 minutes and exhausted me, now takes 22 minutes and I'm still raring to go! Apparently time to add another loop on our path!

  • Ok so I'm a postal worker and have the day off so started exercise early... Rode stationary bike for 25 min and then swam 15 laps.. Hubby and I are off to walk 2 miles... It's a beautiful day in Oklah

Oops I meant 30 mins

Hahaha! That was me this weekend. Decided to try to be a rockstar last week and did a 45 min cycling class. Felt fine afterward but then literally couldn't walk the next day. Need to ease back into it haha

My trainer had me using free weights yesterday, doing squats and lunges.....yeah in the words of Bill Cosby...JELL-O!!! Oh dear God I hurt everywhere today, but it feels goooooooood! I am actually looking forward to doing it again. Thanks to a tremendously busy schedule today and tomorrow, I will not be able to get back to the gym until Saturday.

45 minutes of Zumba

Just signed up for my first 5k. It's in one month... So definitely need to add more running!

It's nice to think that an hour of exercise could just about wipe out all the calories you ate for the day, LOL!

Would anyone like to share how long it was before the were able to do more than just walking? I'm not supposed to lift more than 10 lbs for the first four weeks, so obviously weights and I imagine sit-ups are out... when did you start running and doing more high-impact stuff? My goal is to run the same 10M run in the Fall that I did two years ago, but hopefully weighing 80 pounds lighter!

I got clearance to run at 4 weeks post op.

I got cleared for all exercise at 6 weeks also

So pleased to be able to join this group "officially." I walked around the little lake by my house (1.8 miles). It was a 38 minute walk (lots of stopping for stretching). I'm looking forward to beating my time tomorrow. Thanks for motivating me!
