Got in over 50,000 steps/25 miles+ walking on my trip to the coast!

Not all doped up and foggy minded so I did 30 minutes on the stationary bike this afternoon.

Yesterday did some very slow running late in the day. This morning I went for a short walk to wake up, then did PT, and my core work, before tea and breakfast. Not bad.

Now that the weather is starting to get nicer, my dad and I will be starting to go out for walks.

 

[seabird]

Short route slow run, shoulder PT and a couple planks.

 

[AvidFan]

Finally got out for a run after a couple of weeks doing mainly long walks - needed to give hip time to recover. Had zero confidence in my body after niggles on a walk to the shops - but ran 2 miles, and put in a bit of pace at the end (9.30/mile pace) without any further niggles.

I got myself out this morning for a short walk though it was 2ºC, brr. Came back and did some core exercises and 🥱my shoulder PT. Hoping I get out for a slow run later this evening. I've got some new runners tha fit well. Still have the old ones; for rainy days.

 

[AvidFan]

Got out for a proper run today - managed 3 miles with some decent pace. Knees feel old, but they got me round. Hit 9.30/mile in the middle of the run. Not sure if I'll get my pace from before back (like 7 minute mile pace) but should be grateful just to be able to do anything!

I did get in 30 minutes on the rower this afternoon.

 

[seabird]

Managed a 45 minutes slow run this morning, including the usual warm up warm down walk. Minimal pt work and just one plank at 1/5 minutes. It was my P therapist who suggested going for time rather than distance, so I'm seeing how that goes.

I stopped doing my planks lol. I should maybe start again 😂

 

[seabird]

@AvidFan Yeah, you should. 😛 They're so fun.😅

 

[seabird]

Sorry @AvidFan that sounds snarky and stupid. Planks are hard and not fun at all.

 

[ClassicsFan]

I was hoping that my dad and I would start walking this past weekend, but it didn't happen.

Lol didn't sound snarky or stupid at all, was quite funny! 😀

Mondays are rest days. but I did a couple k of walking in the city, my core work in the early morning and some outdoor clean-up chores which counts as something I suppose.

Thanks @AvidFan. : )

I once saw an app which gamified your chores and counted calories for dozens of different household tasks! It all counts - exercise was once something we did to survive, not as an add on, so outdoor clean up chores count as natural exercise!

I did get in 30 minutes on the rower this afternoon.

Cool. The rower is one of my preferred machines at the gym. Hope youre doing well today @KM76710.

My routine at the gym is 3 miles on treadmill while I watch my show. Three stomach machines, one arm weight lifting machine and hip machine and leg press. Trying to eat healthier, cut out nightly ice cream . The scales not showing much drop in weight but the funny thing is, I feel better.

It is quite good for building up muscle, that and the vertical climber are both great, but the cat here looks at me with an expression of: Doesn't that dumbass know he is NOT going anywhere?

The stationary bike and simply walking is great for a bit of cardio and I do like to mix and alternate them at times.
