Did You Exercise Today???

Happy Anniversary Abby, that's quite the accomplishment
Pam, everytime you post I have to google your lingo (wall balls) but the good thing is that I learn a new exercise to do, no off to google Crossfit.
Yesterday was all weights for upper body, today was complete lower body and stair climbing.

Pam, box jumps terrify me – anything with moving through the air and landing seems destined to involve broken ankles. Sounds like a great workout!
Crazigerl, sounds like an impressive two days – stair climbing is hard!
Today was spinning, interval ride where you kill yourself for 5 to 45 seconds, and then take 20 seconds off – it was fun and challenging. A small class (two of us), and the other student snuck out before stretching (we’re right next to a big hospital, and people with 7 AM shifts can make it if they sneak out and shower fast) – this gave the instructor the chance to give me some helpful feedback on my form.
I ended up with a good challenging core workout – I’ve added side planks.
And now hard at work.
Stay strong friends!

Today was my two year anniversary at the Y, and my one year at FitDay – I remember because it’s the same day as my sister’s birthday. I decided that since running has become fairly routine for me, I’ll start messing with elevation, so I did a random hill pattern today – I kept to 6.1 MPH average, with some slow downs on the top of the hills, and clocked 4 miles in 40 minutes – not an amazing speed but I’m adding in this hill stuff, so I feel good about it.
Have a great day!

On the flip side your spinning workouts would have me falling off the bike within 10 minutes!
Hi Urban, a 10 mile bike ride sounds like just what the Dr. ordered for you recovery. I am glad it is getting better and even gladder that you have wisely chosen to back off a little. You'll be back in your running shoes soon.
I'm heading up to the Sierras this morning and with any luck will get a couple of days skiing in. The snow is much better that it was over the holidays, but still no where near the record amounts they had last year.

Another ski day, this time downhill. I rented new boots - pretty high end - and OMG what a difference. Since they were on sale, I went ahead and bought them. I've been looking to replace my 10 year old, entry level boots for quite some time and all the pieces fell together today.

Pam, Wow two days of skiing that's gotta burn some calories, good for you.
Today was a relaxed day, yoga and treadmill for 30 mins. 6% and lower incline but still got my heart rate up. Stupid rotator cuff injury has put some of the weights on hold.
