Hi All,
Forgot to post yesterday, but I walked for about 30 minutes around downtown San Francisco. Today I'm going on an hour walk with the dogs

did 45min on my exercise bike0

Nice job everyone! So happy that so many were able to squeeze a workout into their busy Saturdays!!!
One week down - let's stay consistent!!!0 -
did 30min tae-bo:happy:0
-
Weather was rainy all day, but finally got hubby to do a 2 mile walk with me through Waikiki in the evening. We were soaked by the time we got home but we laughed about it.0

Week one is nearly over, what are the barriers to exercising you have encountered and how have you overcome them? Mine have been :
Heat - we are in a heat wave and if I can't get it done by 7am I don't do it. I get up as early as I can but it leads to barrier number 2
Time - I can't exercise unless some one is free to watch the girls, but I don't like to wake them so early just so I can work out. It was ok while hubby was on holiday, but now he's back at work I have to wait for mum.0 -
Got a 3 mile walk/jog in this morning, and then did Ab Jam - burned 562 calories in 65 minutes!
Barrier - My husband is on vacation right now, and because we've had so much time apart the last few years I want to spend every minute I can with him until my semester ramps up again. He's been great in doing cardio with me, but he doesn't want to strength train with me so I haven't gotten away to get to the gym. He goes back next week though, so I will have it under control by then.
Other challenge - SORENESS. Man, I am just so sore and don't want to work out sometimes. I know it will get better, but some days I have been waiting til the very last possible minute to get my calorie burn on!0 -
I did Turbo Jam Cardio Party 2. 40mins.0
-
30 min on the stationary bike, 20 min lifting following http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/womans_lean_sexy_bible.htm "upper body monday" and 30 day shred.... Im ready for bed now haha0
-
Hiked the Makapu'u lighthouse trail up and down for an hour, almost 3 miles round trip from where we parked, with over 500 ft of elevation change. HRM said I burned over 900 kcals! Will try to post pics later.0
-
I did Les Mills Ultimate warrior workout 60mins!!! I thought I was going to quit on this but I pushed and forced myself to complete this workout. I had to do a lot of shouting lol.0
-
I've lost my mojo a bit today. I walked the dog and did my workout, but without my normal enthusiasm and energy. It was a chore not something I enjoyed. Im taking a rest day tomorrow. I will still walk the dog as he needs it, but no workout. Might just take the kids for a swim.0
-
60 min Kickboxing and 60 squats. I go to keep it going.0
-
walked the dog but taking a rest day from everything else. If we go swimming tonight I might do some laps, but probably not 0
-
I walk about 45-50 each day - brisk walk pushing a chariot.
I didn't miss my walk yesterday even though it snowed a lot and was still snowing, and the sidewalks weren't cleaned

I took a rest day yesterday and just walked the dog. This mornings workout was the best I've had all week. If your feeling tired or working out is getting harder, it might be your bodies way of saying "hey, give me a break".0

This was the first part of the hike with great views of Oahu's South Shore

The trail was paved, so a good choice for a rainy day

Sometimes you can see humpback whales from this hike, but there were too many whitecaps today to make them easy to find

We got hit by rain when we were nearing the top, but here are some previous hike's pics from the top: gorgeous views of the Windward Shore

On the way back down, so tired, and can barely see my car (we parked the furthest away from the trailhead, naturally)

And that was my hike!
No exercise yet today, I just had an IUD put in for the first time yesterday and wasn't prepared for all the cramping. Feeling better, but think I will hold off one more day.0 -
I didn't miss my walk yesterday even though it snowed a lot and was still snowing, and the sidewalks weren't cleaned
Brrrrrrr.... now THAT is dedication!
I'm still walking. Not a lot, but I'm getting in my 4,000 steps a day, even if I have to pace the short hallway in my house at 11 p.m. to do it.0 -

I have done 2 walks and zero motivation to do 30ds, but if I don't do it I will regret missing a day, but if I do do it I won't give 100% what a dilemma!0

Demilade - I would say just go ahead and do the 30DS, even at 50 or 70% effort you're still getting *something* in, and chances are your endorphins will kick in halfway through and you'll increase your effort by the end. We're rooting for you!0
