Shaping up for life!!
THis is the start of my gym logs. Actually for all my exercise...I was told this would be a great place to keep track. So here goes
July 2 2002 1 Hour of water arobics!! I pushed hard, and felt it. Today though my body feels tired, and so far it is an effort to do my job. That I am sure will pass. |
Alice-
I am glad you started a gym log! I look forward to reading about your progress! Linda |
Alice,
Good for you for starting a gym log!!!! You're going to love going back over your progress as time goes by. You're one smart lady to start exercising near the start of your LC life. I wish now I had started earlier. Soon you will feel so energized from working out, that nothing will be able to stop you. Have fun. Good luck!!! |
Thanks Linda and AngelaR for the encouragement. I need all I can get.

Okay, tonight I did, 1/2 hour on recumbant cycle...then three reps of 10 each of leg curl, butterfly, pulldowns, pushouts and arm curls. with 10 pound weight.
I am not sure what each one is called exactly...but it felt like a good workout. |
:cheer: Keep it up. :) Hope you're enjoying it!
|
Thanks Kristine for the encouraging words!!! I am enjoying exercise, more than I thought.
Did recumbant cycle again, and weights same as the other day. I am actually waiting for my copy of Body For Life to come in the mail. I am logged in on the BFL web site, but since I need to actually see what the exercise is, it is difficult to haul my computer down to the exercise room. I hope the book comes soon. |
Exercises the same as yesterday...getting boring. Hurry up and get her BFL book!!!!
|
Good and tired.That is how I feel, did aquafit tonight. Good work out. I really felt my muscles working. Going again on Thursday night. Its one hour long, and the instructor really works you.
|
Did nothing last night...... I had gone for massage and the darn massuese put my hip out. Arg. A long cool water bath..and some muscle relaxants did me in for the rest of the night. Too hot of a day for a hot bath.
Tonight 1 hour of aquafit...then an evening of reading. Finally got my Body For Life Book. I can hardly wait to read it. |
WOw, read the body for life book..and its terrific. I have the weights, but I needed a bench. Found one cheap and picked it up yesterday. Now I will begin on Monday. I want to photocopy the work sheets and make sure all my weights are close by.
I am so excited!!! |
Yesterday was my first day lifting weights, wow.
Upper body. Charted it down and found that I am first off slow, and second, not very strong. Couldn't lift very much or do all the reps, but I really pushed. Hey its a start. Tonight is cardio, and tommorrow is lower body. It makes me feel great doing the exercise. I hope I can do this. I so want to be toned and fatless!!! |
Cardio was water arobics... but (wondering out loud) if I should also do the recommended in the book cardio as well.
If any one is reading this, what do you think? Tonight I do lower body weights. I love this exercise stuff. Wonder why I never stuck with it before ;) :wave: |
Did water arobics Thursday night, then friday night Upper body weights. I really pushed myself this time and when I was finished I was very sick to my stomach. I had some water and layed down for a few minutes. Today is cardio, the BFL way...as there isn't any aquafit again until Tuesday.
|
Saturday did recumbant cycle BFL way. Today was my day off. Though I did go downstairs to do some exercise then realized that if I want to follow BFL I need to take this day off.
Never thought I would want to exercise every single day!!! Very unusual for me!! |
