Saturday Walking 1 hour

I was pushing the two kids in the stroller for part of the time. They kept switching off, but towards the end they both got kind of tired. I think I covered about 2 1/2 miles?

Also- I've been cleaning out the basement for the last 2 hours, and updating our 72 hour kits. All these natural disasters are making me nervous!

Perfect Week!

I did a perfect week! I didn't miss a single day, and I met all the goals I set for myself! Yay!!
Today totally sucked though. I'm on the heaviest day of my monthly cycle, and it was a struggle just to finish 20 minutes at a plodders pace, and I felt all weak and shaky afterwards. 20 minutes at around 13 mph for a total of 4.3 miles covered. I feel a bit sore after my strength training yesterday, but not nearly as bad as last week. Huzzah for progress! But thank heavens tomorrow is Sunday, and my day of rest. *shew!*

Friday Exercise Bike/ Marching in Place 45 minutes

Exercise Bike- 30 minutes, marching in place 15 minutes. I didn't think I would be able to make the whole 30 minutes, but I did. Woot!

I took Liz's advice and upped my protein, mostly in the form of milk. The milk also helped with the dying of thirst feeling I had in the days after the stomach flu.

Strength Training

Getting better! My transitions and technique are getting smoother, so it's taking less time. Next week, with these sets, I might add a set. It took about 15 minutes at the most.
Stair push-ups--three sets of 12 reps each.
Triceps push-ups--three sets of ten reps each
Calf lifts--three sets of 12 reps each.
Quads on weight bench--three sets of 12 reps each, but I upped my weight this time from 21.3 to 26.4. It was a little harder, but not as hard as I want it to be, so I will probably up that again next week.

Kajukenbo today

Like to say that you all dwarf my efforts. I salute you!

So anyway, I had a pretty good work out tonight. I had the kids do squat sets. This is pretty close to it w/ more reps. and breaks in between every three sets. The intent being to work through all of our hand techniques. (My thighs were dying.)


After that I just had them work some of the same techniques on standing bags.

Frustration Workout

Lots of stress to work through so I did 25 minutes at around 14 mph for a total of 5.8 miles covered.

Thursday Strength Workout/Marching in Place 35 minutes

Strength- arms and standing abs. Marching in place mixed in with some fast vacuuming.

Just trying to get back in the game after having the stomach flu on Monday & Tuesday. I am still SO TIRED. I think this is the first workout in a long time that has not made me feel better after wards.
