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!

They made me do the arm bike in PT yesterday.....suffice it to say I would prefer bamboo shoots under my finger nails (although I have actually never experienced that!).  I told my therapist he was going to have to entertain me so I could stand the most boring of all the boring activities......so he did tell me a cute joke:

What do you call a row of rabbits hopping backwards?

..............

A receding "hairline!"

 And I reached a 99% effort on the machine!

Bad moving day today for me! It was Board Meeting Day. Most people think I have no boss....but I actually have 15. So---sorry but I was up and out to work at 6:30 to be sure I had all reports and info ready and now I am way too exhausted to do anything else. I am vegging today. OH! I did bang my head against the Board room table for a few seconds after they lift. I believe that may be some sort of neck exercise....or kind of like bending at the waist (only not getting all the way down?).

Good jog for everyone who DID keep to their goals today.

As Giulia‌ says..........................................

Why on earth would they make you do the arm bike when it's your leg that needs the therapy???  YoungAtHeart

Nice 3, Jon.

Sorry about your board meeting, Sootie.  Manyana!

Weed wacked a couple of hours then went for a wonderful 8 mile bike ride at sunset.  The temperature was PERFECT.  

Charge on!

Not to steal Nancy's chance to answer but I think the reason for arm exercises would be her arms need to be built up or at least maintain their strength because of needing to use crutches and/or wheel chair. That takes a LOT of arm strength.

I heard they plan on getting her buff for a weight lifting competition
