Exercise club

Today was core workout.

Not felt up to much, walked to and from some places. Felt it best not to run while I've still got a scratchy chest and throat. I hope I can get back to it soon I need it for my mental health 😥

I need it for my mental health

Same here.

That's good you did the walks. Hope you'll get well soon & be back to your running workouts.

A nice relaxing back and forth walk to the post office.

A morning run with walk breaks to get safely across busy streets in this city.

 

[Windhover]

5k jog this morning

 

[AvidFan]

Little 30 minute loosener, did about 2.5 miles, first run since I got the chest/throat thing, didn't want to leave it to too long or my muscles start unravelling 😱 Got to increase frequency somehow!

I exercised my snoring with a between nap snooze.

Lots of walking around downtown today at the farmer's market.

It's mid-thirties today here, so no walking for me today.

I know it is not much, but I have not exercised in about three months, busy and depression.
And I do not really want to start big again, so I have been thinking that for the next six days, I will do twenty-five push ups every morning when I wake up, then go for an afternoon walk with my dog, for about an hour which is what we usually do and then I will do another twenty-five before bed in the evenings. At least for six days after that I will see how I feel and maybe add a few more things, just until I am in the swing of things again and can do a proper hour routine.

Anycase that is my goal for this week *sweat

Any start is a good one and just take things as you can and are comfortable doing. Like so much in life it is a marathon, not a sprint so try not to overdo and you should be fine.

Just do whatever you can. This isn't an elite thread or anything. Walking the dog counts, doing the chores counts, and that's more pushups than I can do by far! Keep up the good work and post here, it's a motivational and supportive little group!

I did 30 minute run, 11:50 min/mile pace. Better than last outing. For some reason I prefer running in wind and rain than blazing sunshine 🤣🤣🤣 Felt good, a proper run for first time in a while 😀 Needed it to blow away a lot of cobwebs!

 

[Harrow]

Thank you I really appreciate that. I did them yesterday and my body is really stiff today, but hopefully my body will remember how after a few days, but it was harder then I was expecting.

I wish I could run. I need to start small I think, though the other day I had to chase an escaping dog and I suprised myself, also nearly had a heartattck lol.

Tall people do not run

Got out for a run today after being idle for the last half a week. Felt really good and was doing a good pace, breathing hard but no discomfort, did the 2nd mile in 10 mins 20 - fast for me currently. Heart rate data was a bit weird though, I noticed it was high during the run, but when I looked at the stats my heart rate was at threshold for most of the run (it's usually only like that if I do a steep hill or sprint as hard as possible, which I wasn't!). As i didn't keel over I figure it's probably just an anomaly and I won't worry about it. I had another watch once and it said my heart rate was 250 during a jog. I think I binned that one 🤣🤣🤣

 

[AvidFan]

Got out for another 5k as probably won't be able to get out for the rest of the week. Ran quite relaxed but pace was still decent though heart rate still on the high side. Mind you there was a time over the summer where I couldn't get my heart rate up, bodies are funny things. Maybe I'm just getting fitter 🤷

I did 20 minutes on the stationary bike for some light exercise. Did not push too much and was lazy with this being another day off.

 

[Windhover]

2.5 miles this morning at a slow pace, didn't time it. Managed to not get rained on so that was good. This cool weather is great for workouts and runs.

I did the post office run this morning and checked out the truck stop.
