I knew in the middle of the week that I would probably exceed my goals by a good amount this week, and it was a great feeling. It's wonderful to have my mojo back!Walking is in the top slot for exercise this week, with cardio in second place. This week, my totals are as follows:
Walking: 3 hrs
Cardio: 2 hrs
Weights: 1 hr 50 min
So I exceeded my goals for this week!
DH does NOT work out at home as I do, so he needs more time in the gym than me. So I worked out a system where I walk to the gym, but he drives. I make sure that I walk for at least an hour. When I get there, he is usually done with the weights and doing 20 minutes on the rowing machine, which he follows by swimming a few laps.
The way I time it, I have anywhere from 45-minutes to an hour to work out once I get there. I concentrate on machines and weights where I can go a lot heavier than I do at home. This system has been working out great, but when it starts to get snowy and icey I may have to devise a new plan.
I went to the gym today and took TWO walks, so I already have a good jump on meeting my goals for this coming week! I walked to the gym, worked out, then later we took the dogs for a walk in the woods.
Be good to you!

Congrats! You are doing so amazingly well! I have set goals for my exercise this week too, hopefully I can stick to my guns and meet them.
ReplyDeleteHi Lori-Ann. Well done on exceeding your goals!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a great system worked out there with DH! Know what you mean about walking in bad weather - maybe you'll have to go on the treadmill at the gym instead?
Great that you are on this journey together and can support one another.
Have a great week,
