I do old school pushups.. LOL. But if you aren't strong enough for that start doing wall push-ups and work your way to the floor. Also invest in some hand weights and do curls and tricep kick backs. Also doing dips on the edge of a chair will work the backs of your arms. You can check out you tube so see all of the things I just described...They can be challenging, but they do help.

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and please let us know how it goes. 

Monday is hour bike ride on trainer

Tuesday strength training and hills 3x. I have a great place to do hill repeats but weather is suppose to be bad and if it it is I will be on the treadmill

Wed master swim and some strength training

Thursday hoping for bike ride on trainer but it all depends on what the doctor has to say on some test results for my husband. Just praying it is not cancer

Friday swim but if the news is bad than i will probably come home and spend time with husband

Saturday 145 minute run

Sunday walk and rest
