Hey Everyone

What a day....I didn't even have time to post my thread this am...sorry about that

This weekend I did my weight training and boxing on Saturday and Boxing on Sunday.  I went to a strong class this am and will be going to my boxing class tonight.  I hope the latest storm will hold off until I get home.  My husband is out of town so I pray my doggie will not get sick and let me go to my class.  Poor baby

Here is a great tip on 6 Ways To Train At Work -

You may not have a gym at your office, but you can really get a really good workout in, all while hitting the daily grind.

1.)  Bring the gym to you - Have your own office and or cubicle to  yourself?  Get a pair of dumb bells and or resistance bands to pump up some reps when you have time.

2,)  Desk Squats - Stand up in front of your chair and with your abs braced and your arms out in front of you, move down like you are going to sit on  your chair, stop just before hitting your chair.  Raise back up slowly.  Repeat

3.)  Park Far - the further you park away the further you will walk.

4.)  Skip the elevator and take the stairs.  Take off your shoes and put on your running shoes and run up and down as fast as you can.

5.)  In between typing on the keyboard stop and give yourself a good stretch to keep the blood flowing.

6.)  Isometrics - squeeze  your glutes, abs, arms and legs while sitting  in your chair. 

So My Friends, Did You Move To Lose and or Maintain Today?  Come on, I know it's hard but summer is coming (please,please,please,please) and we are going to look good if  it kills you  

Take care,
Kathy

Hi Jenn, Splish, splash sounds like a blast  It's strange, if someone reads my posts you would think I am in pretty good shape.  When I was down visiting Charlie we went swimming in her pool and i was sucking air big time. Swimming is a great workout Take care, Kathy

Hi Kathy! I'm late for this thread, but I wanted to let you know that I got back on the bike after being sick for a week.  I rode for 43 minutes at 20 mph, with 3 sprints up to 25-30 mph. Thanks for the work tips, some I had thought of, but not all! Have a great day!

 

Tell someone that you love them!
