2015 Exercise Log/Challenge

[Catrin]

Sorry to read about your hand hurting, glad you enjoyed your ride on the Silque

As for me, no cardio right now, so I played (gently) with my kettlebell herd at home. Since I can't go after it with my usual level of intensity, I decided a short workout after my usual mobility work would be safe. I chose my exercises and weights carefully, things that would raise my heart rate but not put undue pressure or force on/through my knee, and also doesn't require knee flexion. There are a couple of things that meet those restrictions. At least I got to move for about 45 minutes, and I will take it, all things considered.

That sounds like a good compromise, Catrin. I know how I would feel if I was in your healing situation.
My body feels incredibly good this morning, after riding yesterday and boot camp this morning. Boot camp was mostly cardio, with some good strength stuff in between. My back is the best it has felt in a couple of weeks. Off to do my PT correctives and unfortunately, to go to work and sit on my azz all day. I do get up in between clients, stand while I write my notes, walk around, and even close my door and do up dogs! Going to commute tomorrow and Wednesday do a group ride. I am being good and not attempring the longer length one, 37 miles. I will do the 26 mile ride, which includes a stop at the Butterfly Place museum. This is a very hilly ride, which goes by the first house I lived in when we moved back here. It is not an area I ride in very often. Of course, as now, the house was at the top of a hill.
