    May 30 - Today I got out my skateboard and helmet and skated for a half hour in a parking lot.


    Myjourney - A bike is a great idea. They have "comfort bikes" in the stores now. Comfort bikes have a bigger seat with springs in them to reduce the bumps, and the handle bars are higher so you can sit up straight when you ride - not all hunched over. Most of them have 7 speeds, so there are multiple sprokets in the back but only one in the front.

    Icandoit, hope your hip feels better. :heart:

    I will have to check out the comfort bikes! Sounds like they are just what I am looking for.

    Hello Sassafras4, welcome.

    We are planning to move to a new thread on June 1. It's called Something everyday in June. I hope you will join us there. Here is a link.

    Icandoit, I just don't have any sense! Don't follow my example. You take it easy.

    Today - 30 minutes swimming

    Hey you! We got pretty chummy over here didn't we? I miss our side chat too. I am amazed at how many are posting on the June thread. I didn't expect that many to join. It's hard to be friendly and have a personal conversation on the side. I went swimming with my daughter this evening. She's almost 13, and at that age where nothing is ever right.

    I am also in a group called the 100 squats in 100 days group. I joined that group about the same time we started this 50 days thread. Only 4 of us post there even though there is over 100 members who never post. Anyway, so it is small and personal. Come have a look, we are only posting in the thread called May and June. Even though it's called 100 squats..., we don't care what you do. You may like it better there than in the crowded June Something thread. I will send you an invitation.

    round 2 day 12/50....I joined clovers group to do 100 squats a day but I am doing 50 squats a day to build those big muscles to increase metabolism and 50 crunches a day to work that core so when I loose this layer of fat I acutally have a strong core...
    also my normal upper body strength workout...it is about 4-5 exercises for biceps triceps lats and chest...i do 3 sets of 10 right now 2 sets of 5lbs and 1 of 8 lbsweights ...trying to keep it simple and consistant in this busy life.
    plan to cut the grass, plant my hosta garden and get a walk in today :) Happy Saturday
