My strength training hasn't lasted that long since last week lol. Water wasn't very good today though. And surprisingly, my blisters aren't as bad as I would've thought. There more like just swollen sore spots, so maybe that wouldn't be considered a blister since the skin isn't broken. I have no idea lol, but I did work out through it like I said I would.0 -
Ok I fell off the wagon last week. Only got a little over 60 minutes of exercise in but I lost 4.6 lbs (shocking since I've been fluctuating between the same few pounds for 6 weeks!) and completed my 5k on saturday in 31 minutes and some odd seconds, first one I've run the whole way through. So even though I didn't meet my minutes and water I had a good week goal wise. I'm looking forward to getting back on track with everyone this weeek and really PUSHING myself! Good luck to everyone this week!!!
Awesome that you lost 4.6 pounds and you did a 5K!! I'm going to do my first 5K this Saturday. Any tips?0 -

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great Thursday-one day closer to the weekend and maybe some nice weather! If mother nature cooperates, I am hoping to get a good 4 hours of riding in on Saturday!
So here's my numbers for the past 2 days:
Wednesday:
40 minutes-elliptical
50 minutes-bike (still on the stand inside)
8 glasses of water
Thursday
60 minutes-elliptical
30 minutes-walking
60 minutes-circuit training
10 glasses of water
I am at 495 minutes for the week but really have no clue on the breakdown between cardio and strength training-will figure that out before the week is over.
Keep up the good work!
