I went to the gym this morning for a strength class and then I will take my nieces dog for a walk and then I'm not sure - well I have a couple of errands and some grocery shopping to do.

I did my wright training class at the gym this morning. it is so cold out, still snow on the ground, so I am going to skip the walk with the dog.

Bought another weight set. Sold the one I had last year and had a large basket of different weight dumbbells because they take up a lot less space, but I ended up not using them as much as I used the barbells, and I can't lift now what I was lifting then. This set has the weighted leg raises and some of those muscles are not very happy right now after my workout.

Because I lost some strength from not lifting as often I am starting out with a standard 7' bar which is only 20 lbs, my Olympic bars were 45 lbs.

My favorite form of exercise is walking and I have a new Fitbit to try out. But I recently fractured my ankle :-( so it's crutches for a while although I'm doing sitting leg raises of my injured leg to keep it somewhat in shape until I can freely walk again.

Stacey I hope you heal soon, what a bummer!

Good luck with the "cross training" Stacey!

I ended up swimming for 17 laps, before I drove back home.

We just got home from Disney World Friday night. I didn't get any running in due to our busy schedule with DGD's soccer tournament and visits to the parks, but we kept track of our steps. Most park days we walked between 15,000-20,000 steps! So we put in 7-8 miles on a lot of days. Yes, it felt like it. I've started my half-marathon training this week now that the weather has warmed up a bit. Couldn't do anything but the dread-mill last weekend. Way too cold to run outside.

I am really only doing shoulder and neck exercises. I have degenerative disc disorder between my c5 & c6 and a torn muscle in front of my shoulder on the right side. So I'm doing some stretches for that. And decided to do a plank a day. I'm on day 3 now. Not really timing them, just doing them as long as I can. I thought it would hurt my shoulder and neck while doing them, but it doesn't at all. I need to firm up my core. And my arms. And my legs. And back...... My body seems to have fallen and I need to get it back up again. ;)

So far this morning, a bike ride with the dog and half hour of weightlifting.

I was looking for some background music for the weightlifting. I didn't like the rap gym songs. Finally found and saved this, it brings back memories:

It's Tuesday, and I went for a bicycle ride through OKC. I will post some of the pictures I got when I run out of other current pictures for the I'll show you thread. :) I garnered 42 1/2 miles.

The wind had settled down and the temperature was nice by the time I got off work so me and my dd went for a two mile walk outside.

Good workout at pulmonary rehab yesterday AM followed by resistance training at the gym. So exhausted I fell asleep in my chair at about 4:30 and slept for 2 hours!

Met Lisa for a walk at Lake Hefner. About 3.75 miles... fast pace, and talking... wow, it was nice. Thanks Lisa!

Tonight was the first match for my new co-rec volleyball team in the city league. The team won all three games. I then subbed in on another team, and played two more games. Tomorrow is the first night of my Men's team, so I'll play another hour then.
