Workout goal for this week


One of the key findings from the National Weight Control Registry: Physical activity. The average participant exercises at a moderate intensity 60-90 minutes per day. Walkers average between 11,000 and 12,000 steps per day. I'm do pretty well with my 10,000 step goal and I'm okay with that since walking is only one component of my exercise.

My challenge to myself this week is to engage in 360 minutes of mindful physical activity: walking, swimming, elliptical, kettlebells. That's 6 hours of activity. That sounds like a lot, but I commute 10 hours on an average work week!

Yesterday I accumulated 84 minutes between the elliptical, weights (kettlebells), and walking, and a bit over 12,000 steps. Not too shabby! So I'm curious to see how this week goes.

Food was fine. Thankfully I had some chicken tikka masala in the freezer (about 3.5 servings) plus a bag of cauliflower rice, so I pulled that out & heated it up Sunday and that's lunches until we get some leftovers built up. :-)

Last night while T was at band I watched "Super Troopers 2" because he had zero interest. I laughed so hard I about fell off the sofa. When it comes to my sense of humor, I think I'm a 12 year old boy at heart - Lol

Have a good day!

I remember laughing my head off at Beavis and Butthead when I was in college, and I adore that show Reno 911, so I will probably like Super Troopers 2. I saw parts of the first one and thought it was funny.
