'Until some meth head driving an $800 beater he bought on craigslist takes you out from behind.
I'm assuming you are talking about riding a motorcycle..Sorry, I've lived a sheltered life and not familiar with that description...Now about those Harley Davidson bikes...now we're talking!

No. I'm talking about riding a bicycle on the road and getting hit from being by an impared driver and either killed or maimed for life. It happens way too often on our roads streets and highways.
Well, not a pleasant thought..You do realize there are many safe places to ride a bicycle..

Depends on where you live. Around here, not so much.

Every day I see this thread. Every day, I think about whether I'm in the mood to lie. Unfortunately not. So every day I get my little dose of guilt for not exercising. I am creeping up on October 28, which is the first day of my new exercise plan.

When my laundry was being done.. and the meat was cooking on the stove..I spent 15 minutes on the treadmill.. walking speed 2.9 mph..which is my natural walking speed anyway... I should have really upped the speed a little bit but I haven't been on the treadmill for a while now so I thought it less exhausting to just keep at a manageable speed
Something is better than nothing! You doing good!

I live in Alabama. Bike trails are considered communist around these parts.

I continue with my alternating upper and lower body toning.
I haven't yet incorporated an extra yoga-relax session in the evenings. Still trying to work that in.
ETA: And three 15 min. dog walks daily, which totally counts.

Wow, your exercises put my dog walk to shame.
Seriously, that's an impressive workout, Medusa.
You're treating your body very well.
I should have followed you on this site when I had the chance!

Thank you! I'm happy with my routine, for the most part, but I would like to work some gentle yoga in - in the evenings. It would be a good way to close the day.Wow, your exercises put my dog walk to shame.

I'm sure your dog walks are serving you well, also!
I'm sure you look great. I actually posted a picture of myself in that jeans post. I walk a lot. I have had more people tell me how yoga has improved their lives. Do you feel calmer and less stressed because of doing yoga? I gotta look into that .Thank you!

When I do yoga, yes, I absolutely feel calmer. Yoga is accompanied by deep, slow breathing, which signals the nervous system to calm down. It's lovely stuff, yoga.
Right now, I'm only doing 5/6 minutes of stretching and meditation after my toning. I'd benefit from some evening yoga.
If you look into it, you don't have to do the really hard, zen-yogi kind. The gentle stuff is very effective.
