September Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

Hey Gang....I got a new pair of Nike Shox...so no more excuses!!!! I'm going to try for every other day on the treadmill....that's 15 days @ 30 minutes for 450 minutes total. I'm really impressed with Suzzie and MM!

Toni --- 450 Minutes for September!

I want to be in this challenge but I have not completed July or August Challenge. Hunter is starting school on Wednesday and I am hoping that with only having Spencer at home I will have to time to exercise or at least take a walk. I am going to sign up for this challenge at 540 minutes. I will try to walk 3 times a week for at least 30 minutes either inside on the threadmill or put Spencer in the carriage and walk outside if it is nice out.

I've decided I need my weekends off, so my goal is going to be two hours a day, Mondy thru Friday. That about covers my bike ride every morning after I drop my son off at school. My goal is 2400. I HAVE to get to ONE-derland soon, and I want to be down to at least 175 for vacation at the beginning of November.

I am going to take it down a little form last month because on the 6th I got to go down to panama for 21 days for work and I don't know how much time I will have to excercise. I am going to try 60 mins a day 7 days a week. so I guess thats going to be 1800 mins total. Good luck everyone.

I was testing different gear combinations today on my ride, and have picked up my pace, so I need to change my goal to 2000 minutes. That's 100 minutes a day, Monday thru Friday. This is the minimum I will do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Monthly Total = 100 Minutes

100 minutes bicycle

Monthly Total = 220 Minutes

60 minutes elliptical

60 minutes recumbent bike (hill trainer program)

(It's raining, so no trail ride today. :))

I went to a bike shop yesterday. The manager was so nice, had me bring my bike in and he set it up properly for me. Seat height and angle, handlebar height and angle, brake lever location. They actually measure the angle of your knee when you are in the saddle pedaling....I never knew it was so precise! I got some padded underlayers to go under my shorts, so hopefull my arse won't hurt so bad now! LOL And I was also having a problem with the circulation getting cut off in my hands after about eleven miles, so I got some gloves with gel pads in them. I was anxious to ride this morning to see if all this "junk" really helps, but it's raining and will be all week. Phooey!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
