Good sale on paddle boards on Amazon this week. Have one for the wife and one for myself now. Lots of places to use them nearby. Hoping we can get out of the house and enjoy nature together rather than slumping at home in front of a screen.
Good 40 minute workout today with the weights and hit my 15k steps. Heartrate up for 40 minutes on the fitbit so will take that. Motivation is getting so much better so that is cool.
My bestie and I are starting up a new thing. We are both going to be using our stepping platforms every morning for 10 minutes. Iām going to be doing that in addition to my yoga practice.
Iām not going to walk outside anymore for now as it is too muggy in Nebraska.
We also have a meditation practice that we do together. She does a quasi mindfulness meditation and I do Christian meditation. It works out.
Been doing park runs recentlyā¦ 3 a week, going OK
Today I did a 9K steps walk. About 1.5 hours.
I`ve been doing 25/30 minute walks every day this week but I need to pump up my step-count.
Thereās supposed to be a nice path that is a 20 minute walk away from my place, gonna head there for the first time later on this week and walk
Did 20 minutes on the eliptic machine today. Yesterday I did 45 minute strenght workout.
Excersise is spordic for me because of sleep problems, but it feels great to do when Iām up to it.
Did another 20min on the eliptic machine today, and about 55 minutes strenght excersise yesterday.
I managed 3Ć20 pushups against the wall which is up from 15 last time.
I plan to increase resistance on eliptical machine next time.
Sleep has been much improved the last while, so Iām able to excersise more consistant.
I will go for a cycling it little cold I will put jacket and and headphones will listen to dnb and ride to beach
Iām six weekly swimming sessions into a block of ten at my local leisure centre. Iām bit disappointed with myself that I only managed 15 mins last week.
I went from walking 10 minutes a day to a solid 30 minutes a day, over the last few months. I have also been incorporating at least 15 minutes of Pilates and Yoga at least 3 times a week for a month.
Right I am getting over covid, so I cut back a lot but I should be going back to 20-30 minute walks each day and doing at least 15 minute aerobic sessions again 6 times a week.
I have an hour walk planned with my friend this Monday, so I am hoping to get back into gear after that.
I`m really trying to be more consistent.
While I have been suspended for the past 60-days, I have been recording my treadmill exercises. Been slacking a bit.
Long time no see thread.
Lately iāve been doing a lot. Getting plenty of steps. Riding a stationary bike occasionally as well as jogging also, distance got longer. My higher time on stationary bike is around 12-14 minutes without stopping.
I started lifting more weights. trying to change my average dumbbell workouts to 20 pounds or more instead of 15. Started benching/deadlifting/overhead press/lots more canāt name all.
Bench = 80 pounds PR for 12 reps in a single set
Deadlift = 80 pounds PR was 7/6/6
Squat = 50 pounds, canāt remember reps
Overhead press was 65 pounds, canāt remember reps
I think I lifted weights 3 different times today, starting light working my way up.
Also, I have STILLLLL not unlocked a full complete pull up or chin up. I do dips good, and reverse pullups/chinups tho :\
Chest days. Warmed up then hit 90 pounds for 8,10,12 reps.
Itās a PR but just makes me realize thatās not a lot lol.
The grind continues.
Edit: anddddd I bumped the older thread crap xD
I donāt get back too much these days but hope your all exercising and doing good! Itās so worthwhile and besides diet itās probably the single best thing you can do for psychiatric symptomsā¦that diet thing is different but Iāve said enough about it!
Still. Iāve become a running man. i do a lot of running on the spot watching bad tv in the mornings to get the heartrate up but new thing is jogging. I donāt go too far but getting in 3 km runs at a horrible pace but Iām a newbie. Thing is besides a rest day today Iāve done three in a row.
So new plan is the weights and running. Minimum 3 km but plan is to move up to 5 km runs a day with the odd rest day thrown in after 2-3 days. Keep it interesting but whilst the weather is good Iāve been doing goodā¦I roughly do 3 km in 21 minutes so itās slower but Iām doing it!
Man itās awesome that you can swim in a pool nearby. Itās a luxury!
60 min of walking and 3.5 hrs of kayaking on a lake so far today.
