I thought I would start a thread to get people to add what exercise they have done today, I think I will find this quite motivating.... even on the days when you don't feel like getting off your butt and do anything
Today I have done two classes at the gym:
30 minutes Grit Plyo and 30 Minutes Kettelbells, now I am pooped but still have the housework to do.....but I am getting sooo much stronger, quite impressed with myself :happy:

Not too bad surprisingly and I should be able to up the bounciness over the next week or so!0 -
Cycled out into the Surrey countryside on a relaxed and unstructured ride just enjoying a bright and dry day for a change.
Ride ended a little prematurely when my rear tube exploded after 3:15 hours and 46 miles. :frown:0 -
Walked my goats for an hour and then painted 4 wardrobe doors and my living room! x0

Walked my goats for an hour
This is something I have never seen! There is a guy nearby who takes his ferret out on a lead, which causes a doub le take as it is so low to the ground, but I didn't realise goats needed walking?
I have done a Body Combat class, which I was happy with as I'm at the tail end of a cold, and although I seemed to sweat more than usual I managed just fine.0 -
Managed to get my first sub 55 min 10k run! Now to see if I can get close to 50min by the end of the year 0
-
first i stood at the side of a rugby pitch, while my son played.
Then later I stood at the side of a swimming pool while my daughter had her lesson,
then i ran 1K for the first time ever. I know its not much of an achievement for most people
but, if youd seen me try to run for a minute at the beginning of January,
you would be cheering me on as if id just completed a marathon.0 -
Fairly easy ride to watch the football and back, about 10 miles in total, so nothing too major, but still, a good hour out and about on the bike, which is always nice on a spring day like today!0
-
Yesterday morning was my 14Km long run, so a fairly short one of 3Km today.
I also walked the dog for two hours in total, so the legs were feeling it last night.0 -
Yesterday was a day off from the gym, but took the pooch out for a long walk round the Downs Banks, plus a whole load of walking around Hanley getting various wedding stuff sorted.
Today was an hour on the treadmill, plus some leg and chest presses ... my legs are burning somewhat today!0 -
Just walked the dogs. A nice 4 miles.0

This morning I did a Body Pump class, followed by a 4 mile walk on the treadmill (it was raining!) to get my 10,000 Fitbit steps. Sunday afternoons are very lazy for me...0

I commuted by bike for the first time this year - lovely sunny morning but I'm now watching the grey clouds roll in.
It was good to get on the bike again and I can put the extra 500 calories I've burnt to good use.0 -
Oh mi well done everyone, my 20 min run seems a bit wimpy HOWEVER, this last week I have done it 3 times. I used to run regularly at the gym (some 5 yeas ago) but wimped out on account of painful knees and even more painful gym membership fees. Knees 'n fees!! Knees are still painful but surprising dont seem to be any worse following the running.... my friend is convinced I should 'run through the pain'!!
Today - swimming, for half an hour. Thats the plan.
Well done the Brits, just joined the Brit group today.

I did a 9.6 mile walk yesterday and I really ache today - my back and hips are very sore. My plan was to do an extreme spin class after work, but I think I need to rest. I'll be doing a zumba class tomorrow!0

The goats don't 'need' walking as such but they absolutely love it.....they get to nibble on a whole different variety of plants and leaves along the way and are very inquisitive of their surroundings. Goats are very intelligent and the walks not only provide exercise but enrichment and stimulation too. You have to have a license to walk goats because of the foot and mouth regulations and it has to be along a prescribed route. The boys, Teddy and Tumnus, attract a lot of attention so the walks can be a little stilted at times as everyone who sees them wants to stop and chat and make a fuss.....not that the boys mind at all!
Today's exercise....an hour walking the goats and an hour of Zumba!0 -
For the last 7 years I've played rugby, so yesterday was a self=imposed rest day. Instead of letting your kids have all the fun, join them......well not in their actual teams but maybe you should try it out, I've never looked back and am at my fittest now (well still improving)first i stood at the side of a rugby pitch, while my son played.
Then later I stood at the side of a swimming pool while my daughter had her lesson,
