    Hello everyone,

    Finding it difficult to exercise on weekends. How many days a week should I do these workouts? I would appreciate it if any of you can help me make a weekly schedule for every day of the week.

    Thank you,
    Monika

    You may want to look into the 2018 Walk at Home New year Challenge. If I remember right the program was for 6 weeks and had weekends off. Monday through Friday was a different milage to walk for.

    Thank you so much @Deeder522 :smile:

    I'm late to post ~ been a busy month so far. But I have been walking and working on strength. I learned last month that a longer strength workout doesn't necessarily mean a better one.

    Glad you are back. I hope that lesson didn't result in an injury.

    Not exactly, I did strain my knee, but it wasn't from a longer workout. No, what I learned was that many times, the shorter workouts can be more challenging, especially when using weights. A 60 minute strength workout didn't feel more effective than the 15 or 30 minute one that pushed me really hard. It's just not something I knew before trying a bunch of different workouts.

    Sorry to hear about the knee :( That is a very interesting observation about the 60 vs a 30 or 15 minute workouts. It seems that those long ones just must be doing more for us, at least that's what we want to believe, ha-ha. Thanks for the the insight on this. Got me rethinking some things.

    I'm sure it depends on the workout @AnnofB. I'm just basing that observation mainly on the HASfit workouts. I've experimented with various strength workouts of theirs and the 60 minute ones I tried were not more challenging for me, just longer and they repeat stuff. They have some shorter ones which I find hard and my muscles are shaking afterward!

    I do like a longer one for a bigger calorie burn, but I'm trying to chill out on that and focus more on maintaining strong muscles. As I get older, I notice injury happens more easily and I want to take care of myself, be more fit.

    57/70 miles tracked for the month.

    I suspect work to be dropping off here soon as everything is pretty much shutting so that means I can get some more walks in.

    March Goal: 30 minutes a day of work out walking/strength (i.e. not the Garmin only) Hopefully this plan will help me meet my yearly challenge of 110+miles & 4 strength workouts each month.

    -Vivofit tracked 1.0 miles=68.2 miles total
    3/23-Neighborhood walk 30 minutes-2.0 miles=70.2 miles total

    Well, it has been a bit of a challenge to get any walking time in!!! Between my husband's VA trips and COVID-19, I have not had much of a chance to walk very far from a computer! :grumble: I am now teaching 6 college classes online and it is a challenge beyond anything I have ever done! It is so much easier to teach in a classroom than online. However, I shall persevere and get these students through the course so they can get on with their careers once this pandemic has run its course. I have decided to walk 30 minutes outdoors each day because I need the fresh air and the chance to get away from this house. I love it, but MI is now on lock down and 24/7 of it is a bit much! :laugh: I will try to check in with all of you at least once a week or more if I can. Please be safe!

    Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:
