    What was your first exercise/workout of 2017? :)

    Nothing yet, tore the ligaments on my right ankle last week, so a bit limited in my ability to do much at the moment :(

    Oh no! I'm wondering about rowing, seems like it could be a possibility. Do you have access to a rowing machine by chance?

    I have a Water tower, but the tank is in need of a repair.

    I do have a turbo trainer that I'll be using fairly soon as I do need to keep my CV fitness up, with a Marathon in 10 weeks.

    I'd never heard of a water rower before. Had to google. Interesting. We just bought each other a rowing machine for Christmas. Indispensable for all those times I have some kind of foot/ankle/leg injury. The bike stand comes in handy too. Good luck in that marathon!

    Bench pressed today and tried my new Maxi climber that Santa (husband) bought for me! I wore a 35lb vest and loved it! I completed 30 minutes of hiit training and was dripping with sweat when I finished!

    New Years Day I did 55 minutes of circuit training with my trainer, with a 5 min rowing warm up and 5 min rowing cool-down, then I went on a 30 minute leisurely bike ride with the kiddo. I'll be hitting the gym to swim tonight, wondering how crowded it's going to be.

    Hit the weight room yesterday. Road for an hour on the trainer today. I didn't do crap on New Years day except sit on the couch and watch football and play some card games with my kids.

    I did a 6000m row yesterday. My 500m split times have improved by 38 seconds since I started rowing just over a month ago, so I'm happy. :)

    Did trail maintenance yesterday. I'm fairly new to this trail and noticed the previous time that after a heavy rain I needed to walk on the bank in some washed-out sections and that these were overgrown.

    Today was back day at the gym. Am thinking about practicing yoga tonight.

    I ran .89 miles which is the furthest this chubby old outta shape lady has run since middle school and I followed that up by body strength exercises.
