Happier and Stronger Day by Day!
|
This is just a short post tonight. I will be on early tomorrow morning to write a bit in case you miss me too much! LOL
I just wanted to tell you what a wonderful day I had. Yesterday Jim and I had a wonderful Sunday out on the boat at the lake again. It really was a beautiful day, and as Jim reminded me, each one now is a gift as we draw closer to fall. The leaves were even changing color on some of the trees. It was mostly along the water line… we have had so much rain this summer that the trees roots along the shore have been covered in water all summer long. It's been an unusual summer, with no beach at all along most of the river shoreline! |
Well yesterday morning before we went out, I was able to do 35 minutes on the exercise bike, and a really good lower body workout. Today I did the bike and an upper body and then this evening I was able to sneak in 25 minutes on the treadmill. Since my attitude adjustment of yesterday I am actually looking forward to the exercise sessions.
On the bike now I am doing a 5 minute warm up and then a few minutes at resistance 3 and 80 RPM followed by 2 minutes of resistance 4 trying to keep RPM at between 95 and 100 so I feel like I am sprinting. I really want to be jogging by spring at latest providing my knees will allow it. So this was sort of my first conditioning workout.
Tonight on the treadmill I did brisk walking with 5 30 to 90 second sprints (well jogs LOL) but it's a start and I feel really great to have a goal like being able to run. I have NEVER been able to, not because of strength but because I have always smoked and have never had the lung capacity to run. I think I will be able to finally. Any way… we're gonna shoot for it! :-)
See you tomorrow!
