Today's WO: a little bit of everything

- push-ups: 2 sets of 10
- sit-ups: 2 sets of 10
- ab sucker-inners: 3 sets of about 10 sec.
- lunges: 2 sets of 10 on each leg
- squats: 11
- calf raises: 2 sets of 7

Switched to squats from lunges because my right hamstring was rather sore.

The Lazy Woman's Workout, continued:

Let's see - Friday, I had to carry my crap about a kilometer and a half to work. I was sore the next day.

Saturday, we were marching all day. Well, marching some of the time, standing around in the sun the majority of the time. Exhausting.

Sunday, walked around downtown Kingston for a few hours. Was supposed to march at night, but we got rained out. At the party, I got challenged to a push up contest. Lost. Hey, it was a guy. Girls are at a disadvantage. But my back and arms are as sore as heck today.

Today: legs, the lazy way. 3 sets of 10 squats, 2 sets of 7-8 calf raises. Later: walk to the grocery store, carry the stuff home.

Time to resurrect the gym log. Went on a "scenic route" walk yesterday, lugging empties back to the beer store. Today: squats, sit ups, pushups. Later: I'll be lugging heavy stuff to work.

Gee, I haven't had noteworthy exercise since October?

I'm a little out of shape again and I need to get back on the wagon. Last night, I heard a rumour that our reserve unit is scheduled to go on a 13 km ruck march in June, which means 13 km of carrying at least 25% of your body weight in a back pack. Not looking forward to it, but I better be prepared.

Lower body workout today. Lunges, calf raises, reverse calf raises.

Yesterday and today were pretty much UB days. I walked to the mall and I carried groceries home yesterday - my arms just about fell off! Today, I had to lug two cases of pop in a cart to work and take it all upstairs. Got a good walk in, too.

Default Thanks to all of you!

I just need to "commit" to not binging. All of you are right. I just find eating stuff like pizza and sushi as rewarding....with low-carb, I should be low-carb 100% of the time and not 50% or 70%.

Hee hee. My gym log has been dead for so long, I never noticed this poor newbie's post in the wrong spot. Sorry, dude. If I had noticed, I'd have moved it for you.

Anyway... the resurrection of Kristine's gym log. Yet again.

Monday Jan 3 - upper body workout on door gym. Didn't work too hard, took some glutamine, didn't really have any soreness the next day.

Tuesday Jan 4 - walked to the mall, did my grocery shopping. Walked to work later.

Wednesday Jan 5 - upper and lower body workout with some door gym work, plus lunges.

Thursday Jan 6 - Oh, those lunges killed me! Big time DOMS, despite taking glutamine.

Yesterday - Some light dance aerobics, walked to the mall.

Today - upper and lower body workout on door gym, avoided quad exercises because they still hurt.

Today's exercise will consist of carrying 30 cases of empty beer bottles down two flights of stairs, and 15 full cases up.

Full body workout on the door gym today, though I took it easy and really didn't overdo it.

I got a yoga book that includes a 10-week 'course', and I've been doing it faithfully. I started on Monday. I've also been doing make-it-up-as-you-go-along strength training. I just pick a few muscle groups aren't sore from the yoga or the previous day's workout, and work 'em.

Yesterday, I was pretty stiff all over (though not sore) so I just stuck to the yoga. I was also in a hurry.

Today - yoga plus abs, squats, and arm/back work on the door gym
