    Two and a half hours steadily shoveling 4-8" (depending on drifting) of snow from my driveway, in 15-22 degree F steady snow (hitting 200% of my oft-ignored steps goal in the process - LOL), then a vanishingly short machine row just to tick off another challenge day.

    Vigorously worked my strider cardio machine for an hour.

    Sunday -- 2.25 mile walk
    today -- 1.5 mile walk, 4x10 bicep curls 10lbs, 4x10 tricep extensions 5lbs, 2x24 walking lunges

    Hopefully will get in an exercise bike workout tomorrow. Walking for extended periods of time in the cold is a challenge especially as my legs get itchy in the cold. I can go back to 5 or 6 mile walks once it warms up past 50 degrees. In high school and college I used to regularly walk 10 miles in a day and even walked up to 20 miles in one day but now I don't have the time for that, plus I get anxiety being too far from home. Also I would like to find more conditioning exercises I can do that don't require equipment besides weights and don't involve impact (since I live in an apartment and don't want to piss off my neighbors).

    1 hour on the Air Dyne Pro. "Long" slow day (not sure if an hour qualifies for that but that's all I do mostly except on Sundays when I do around an hour and twenty). Pretty easy. According to the AD Pro, at around 130/135 Watts today (18/19 MPH if that means anything on an Assault Bike).

    I'll do 30 minutes on the indoor bike trainer later this afternoon...that's about all I can handle mentally doing stationary work. I can't wait for the weather to warm up.

    12 miles / 34:38 / 427
    I was biking slower, did a mile less tonight, but burned more calories per mile than last night. This ride felt faster and harder, but wasn’t.. odd.

    Ah well. Good ride regardless.

    Had a another all-day webinar today so once again another 15 x 4 = 60 workout this time using a 12-inch step in my spare office.

    15 minutes of 4-count step-ups to 12” step at pace of 25/minute or 375 step-ups in 15 minutes done 4 times during day for total of 1 hour and 1,500 steps.

    Tougher than previous day when I did brisk walking.

    Tomorrow should be back to normal.

    A terrible speed workout. So disappointing - BUT there's always next time to improve upon. Just got to keep looking ahead.

    I walked outdoors and did Brazil Butt Lift Bum Bum. I haven't done it in ages and was pleasantly surprised by how much of it I could do. I'm considering a 30 or 60 day BBL commitment.

    50 minutes on the Air Dyne Pro @ roughly 135/140 Watts. Not enough time for my usual full hour. Very easy work. Got a late start. Tomorrow is push for an hour hard.

    I've been working extremely hard on controlling my "easy" days so I can push as hard as I can on the two hard days that I do cardio. We'll see if I improve tomorrow. Last week, held (at least according the AD Pro), 233 Watts for an hour last week.

    Was supposed to have done sprints with my PT at 6am and the a 5mile at steady race pace but the paths were treacherous and it wasn't safe to run outside.
    So I did a 3.1 mile tempo run on the treadmill. I hate running on the dreadmill so just decided to get it done, didn't look at speed, distance, etc, but every time I settled at a pace I cranked it up. Ended up running my fastest treadmill 5k by a long way and being only 15sec off my all time 5k pr (which I got on a mostly downhill run)

    Then did half hour of abs including decline sit ups, slam ball pass sit ups, Russian twists, v crunches and cable twists.

    Finished the day with 45min of very bouncy zumba.
