Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

The purpose of this thread is to post your plans for exercise for the upcoming week, as well as to post daily what you have done to earn your Ap's. Anyone is welcome to post any information they would liket o share. I hope this will help to keep you accountable to earning those Ap's. More Ap's = more food for you!

Sunday - rest
Monday - 12 mile bike ride
Tuesday - 12 mile bike ride
Wednesday - 12 mile bike ride
Thursday - 12 mile bike ride
Friday - 12 mile bike ride
Saturday - 10 mile bike ride

If it rains, my fall back plan is 40 minutes on the trainer or 50 minutes on the treadmill. I would rather ride outside if possible though.

All I can say is I walked outside tonight in my neighborhood for almost an hour and OMG my legs are sore!

Hopefully we'll have some good weather this week b/c it's so nice being able to walk outside and not on my TM for a change.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

Just got back from my 12 mile bike ride. What a gorgeous day!!!

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

Got to the gym and did 1 1/2 miles on treadmill, weights and water aerobics. Heart rate monitor showed 440 cal. Left it on while I was shopping and when I got home had almost 900 cal. DH says that shopping really is exercise for me. Think I'll go for a bike ride while he is at a meeting. Broke down and bought a bike helmet today.

Finally back to the gym after being sick and on vacation. TOtally out of shape and huffing on the stair master. Ooh well, I pushed through and burned 500 calories for the day.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

Well, as usual, the weatherman was WAY off. It wasn't supposed to rain until this afternoon, so I thought I could ride my bike. WRONG! LOL The rain started at 6:45am and hasn't really stopped. So... I did the dreadmill for an hour instead.

Uki, you must have a weatherman who went to school with ours. Same thing, no rain till PM. Started about 8. It did stop for long enough to get in my picnic then started again.
Managed a 1 1/2 mile walk before the picnic. Mosquitos are out now due to the humidily.
Also did a 3 mile bike ride last night after dinner

Dragging myself to the gym today. I'm in spring cleaning mode and all I want to do it keep going through cupboards and work on my food storage! And no, I'm not pregnant!

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

Stopped at the gym on way home for my job. 2 1/2 miles on treadmill and weights. That about did me in.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

I walked 45 min last night around the neighborhood.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

The weather held out and I got my 12.4 mile bike ride afterall. It sure felt good to be out there.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

45 minutes walking in the deep end of the pool. Figured = 2 miles walking outside. Also 1 mile on treadmill

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

12.4 mile bike ride all done.

Re: Exercise Accountability Post for the Week of 6-1-08

no exercise today. My job kept my bottom in a chair for 6 hrs. straight (managed one bathroom break). Was too busy to even eat my lunch which I had packed. It is so hot here that if I don't walk early in the AM I don't think I'll get any walking in until I get back to the gym.
