Gym is open (Friday)

Today was abs and back. Some of it was easy, some of it - not so much. Here's the routine: hip rolls crunches hands via knees crunches seated knee tucks supermans broomstick twists bent rows sitting trunk flexions single leg lifts back extensions 2 mile walk this evening. What did you do to work your muscles today? Seven

Nuthin'. Rich and I are both a bit under the weather so we opted to make today a rest/recovery from exercise day since we had been at the gym 4 days in a row. We'll hit the gym tomorrow and I'll get my 3rd run of the week in and my upper body workout as well in one fell swoop. Kathy

I'm a firm believer in 1-2 rest days a week. I hope you two feel better soon! Seven

Absotootly, Seven! I'm with ya. Gotta give the body a chance to heal and catch up.

I walked at the gym today. Then I tried some of the leg machines. I did: leg press leg extension leg curl My right leg is considerably weaker then the left. I did the leg press first with both legs (on the first weight) Then I did it with my right leg only and had to take off all the weight. Then I did the left leg only and could do it with the first weight on. Sure gotta LONG way to go!!! But it was great to do something. Laurie

It sounds like you have already come a long way! Keep it up. Seven

Haven't been able to get to the gym in a while but have been dancing to "Sweatin to the Oldies" as often as I can or walking. Need to get down to busy and get to the gym - hopefully next week. Cindee

If you can't make it to the gym, a little aerobics is a good alternative. Seven

I climbed up and down the stairs 3 times at work today and have done one mile on the treadmill. I think that may be all for me today!! Caren

Good work and good night. Seven
