    I've gone back to yoga, and I'm loving it. I hope (plan) this is one thing I hang on to when this is over - I let it go because I was "too busy". Trying out many different YouTube videos - I have confirmed that the dance-y ones require much more coordination than I possess! I have a woefully neglected backyard (like it could be mistaken for a field), so I'm doing a lot of yard work - knocking the weeds down with the weedeater, and then hoeing the roots out - the hula-hoe is an amazing tool btw. The fresh air and sunshine really helps. And my arms should be in great shape by the time this is over :smile:

    (edit because spelling matters)

    5:15 AM pre-work 4 mile walk. Resistance training in the area I put together in the garage.

    I have a home gym, so business as usual for me :)

    Well, my main cardio has always been walking. I admit I'm doing a bit less of that now (and I'm masked and gloved when I do go out), but I have dumbbells and a glider in the basement and I've been keeping up with that.

    I really miss working out at the gym -- both classes and with my trainer. The gym has been posting a daily schedule of workout classes. All of the workouts can be done live OR they can be accessed later on Facebook. I schedule my workouts each day by both time and the type that I want to do. It's one more way to stay accountable.

    Using my apps.

    I- Fit which syncs with my treadmill (I've walked the Scottish Highlands and Kauai, lol), Aaptiv, YouTube, and dusted off my Firm and Cathe Friedrich DVDs.

    This and lots of housework.
