I really enjoyed having the extra day today to get ready for the week. I leave for CO on Wed to visit our daughter and help her move. Hopefully we'll get a nice hike in too!
Today I swam for about 45 minutes but will be at the gym tomorrow and probably Wed as well since my flight doesn't leave until 3:30 pm.
Have a great week everyone!

@ niner.............good point.
Had a training session this morning and spent most of it working on hip strength.....still having a bit of weakness on the right side so we worked with bands and then did some single leg bench squats and single leg RDL's. Felt good.
I'll try to check in a bit from CO but have a great week everyone if I don't have a chance to really do that!0 -

I was (my 10'x10' canopy), but it was still 10 hours outside on a very hot, humid day. It's a good reminder of why I workout, though...I load the car myself, unload, setup, then tear down and bring it all back home. A workout within itself!

A week ago, I took a line drive softball to my shin during softball practice. Not the ordinary bruise I thought it was. Leg is swollen after all the running this weekend. Lots of icing and will avoid any lower body exercise, including running, this week. I have a race this coming Saturday, so best I rest it for that. Really hope it's just a deep bruise.

Welcome to the group...............can't help you with the alarm beeping on your HRM, mine's never done that.....LOL. The calorie burn sounds about right to me though.

Took a rest day yesterday playing catch up still from being gone. Met with my trainer this morning and we're working arms and shoulders right now. He's under the impression that I can do a handstand at some point.....LOL, I would be shocked. But anyway, I'm doing walkouts from an elevated leg position so we'll see. The pool is too cold to swim now so I'll be doing more cardio at the gym and walking the dog a little more often. I'll probably still swim one day a week at the gym if I can get a lane.......:(

Calories are good around 1700 average daily and I definitely lost a pound in CO. Also today is my 730th day at MFP.............two years!!!!
Dinner out tonight so who knows???????
