What exercise have you done today?

[Deya]

Morning workout and soon out to walk 3 miles. I have kept on walking even after retirement as a UPS package delivery driver of 20 years. Walking is a lot more fun when not under a strict time line and no packages to carry. It is certainly better on my back.

 

[Medusa]

I skipped yesterday to give my hips a rest, (and to prove to myself that I can skip a day and the world won't collapse), and resumed today with the usual toning and stretches.

 

[Elsie]

2x31' on indoor bike, and 2x31' on rowing machine.

Tomorrow will be a walk with a neighbor.

The walk. Carried?

Skipping a day now and then is a good idea. It is my opinion that if ones mental attitude toward exercise isn't good on a certain day, then best not to do it.

The walk. Carried?

I've been walking 3 miles every morning with my neighbor, and running when he takes a day off.
So far I've been running about 2 of the 3 miles but am aiming to run all the way again like two years ago.
My daily warmup is 12' of running in place along with 2 sets of 3' running back and forth in the 20 foot hallway.
The bike doesn't get much use anymore, as I have an arc trainer to use instead, and got rid of the rowing machine.

Running is great just as long as one does not overdo it.

I was so sure your video was going to be this:

ETA: I did catch the first couple minutes of your video. Interesting.

Edited again: typo

So far.....Walked a brisk mile early then 2 sets of seated dumbbell military press, 2 sets of dumbbell concentration curls, 2 sets of dumbbell reverse flys and one set of dumbbell regular curls.

I am getting over a bad marriage where I could not exercise. I am weaker than I have ever been.

I went hiking on a 4.1 mile easy trail yesterday and over did it. I am recovering today. Took my dog out for about a one mile workout this morning.

Was your exercise post sent from a hospital rehab room?

 

[Geo1957]

One set each of 10 different lifts total upper with dumbbells.

 

[Trade]

Once again I have surrendered to old age. I've decided to give up doing Dead lifts. I have spinal stenosis and I've been taking two 650 mg exrended release Tylenols ever morning just so I don't have to walk bent over like Quasimodo.

So for weight training I am now down to bench press only and with mini weights because I am trying to come back from a rotator cuff injury.

At least you're still trying.

I'm 83 years old, so I could be overdoing it, which is a bad habit of mine and has caused me problems in the past.

Walked 9 holes on a very hot morning, then swam 15 laps. I'm done for the day.

 

[Medusa]

I am continuing with alternating upper and lower body toning, combined with yoga/stretches. Thinking of maybe slightly increasing my weights, again, on upper body days.

 

[Trade]

I've quit doing deadlifts. Currently only doing one weight training exercise. Bench Presses 3 times a week with light weight. I' also averging about 2 miles a day of walking on the nature trail. Still strugling with my weight. During the month of June I only lost one pound from 203 to 202. I averaged 2,342 calories per day during June.

It was supposed to be an off day, but I did my weights routine. Got bored waiting for a breakfast appointment.

That's what happened to me a few months ago. I got a bit too enthusiastic with my 10 minute nitric oxide release work out and tore my rotator cuff. I decided I was too old and fragile to do much of anything.

However, I miss it and I'm ready to try again. I just made up a new list of 10 exercises, mostly acquired from YouTube videos with titles like "The Three Exercises Seniors Must Do Daily."

I will begin Monday, (Sundays are my day off, it's the one thing I didn't give up.)

Slowly and gently.

Once again I have surrendered to old age. I've decided to give up doing Dead lifts. I have spinal stenosis and...

I feel your pain, it's a hard pill to swallow. I've had to modify my Yoga and general fitness pursuits as my back is just a battlefield of stenosis and bulging discs.

I did about 4 miles on the nature trail this morning. I start off before 6am and it is still about 85F and 50% humidity. Not pleasent. I saw a couple new homeless camps on the way. I don’t know how they survive it. It’s been 105F-113F for at least a couple weeks.
