Let's Get Moving Part 3

Jump to solution

'The original idea was to "get moving" at least 4 times a week, staying accountable to each other.  Post your accomplishments in the comments. This is the original blog link if you would like to clarify the guidelines

Let's Get Moving Challenge - EX Community.   Any activity counts, as long as you get off your butt and get your heart pumping.  Who knows, maybe we'll lose a little weight or a couple of inches in the meantime.  I hope placing it in discussions this time will work better than a blog post where there were so many entries and becomes harder to locate.  Let's see if we can keep it on the board often and easy to find. 

I believe we got sidetracked when I suggested doing other challenges and those challenges were not conducive to everyone. My fault. Lesson learned.  So I am hoping we can get back to doing what "you" do instead of a specific routine.  Got it?.   In the previous post, there were a lot of comments to go through to come up with this list of who participated.  Hopefully, it will catch on again.  Of course, sometimes we got off topic which can happen.  This post really kept me motivated and we had a lot of fun while learning a lot from each other with over 2519 comments on the first blog and 1072 Let's Get Moving 2018 - EX Community  on second blog comments. So let's Get Moving Part 3!

tjanddj  I am sure you have beautiful biceps.  I am going for my morning walk with Cocoa.    I don't have definite MOVING plans today.  Whenever I say I won't be doing much I do a lot.  There are always leaves to rake  After reading and research, early spring and late fall is preferred to transplant asparagus.  I guess I should be posting this in Gardening  Lovers lol but since the plants are young and delicate and already in an ideal location, I have decided not to move them. I may build a fence.  I will be moving today. Have a great MOVING day.

Oh Jackie my biceps have deflated in the last couple of years. I'm hoping now that the landlord is letting me do the yard work that will help me out. I still miss chopping and stacking wood, it was my favorite workout. Yard work to me seems to be a better workout then actually doing exercises.

Reporting in.  Spent a couple of hours raking and leaf blowing yesterday and finally managed to mow the back hill.  When putting the rake away in the garage the handled knocked off the iron wedge which fortunately hit something before bouncing on my toes.  I don't THINK anything's broken, but one toe in particular is definitely not happy today.  If it had fallen directly on my foot it would be a different story.  So today will be a hobbling day.  The hobgoblin came and went.

Yeah, I was thinking about that as I was writing the post.  Could have been as bad as your experience.
