Sometimes I scroll through some saved photos, and scratch my head, when will I ever be able to post these? So here are some of them, without much relation to one another.
Today (Saturday writing this while snowbound) it's cold still here. I've been doing cardio workouts with a video, as well as a strength training video. As well as my physical therapy exercises from last spring...as I have the written pages for the PT.
I woke up this morning with my limbs feeling much more flexible! Wow. My torso is also responding with some muscles working, rather than letting the flab take over. I will keep doing these indoor exercises in the living room! Having immediate (one week) results gives me such a personal boost. I'm also saving the money it would cost to drive to Asheville to the gym. Now I know why people go to closer ones, and if I decide to do that, I'll consider the local YMCA first.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteIt is a good idea to do your exercises at home. Wonderful images and a great quote.
I love the last tree sculpture. Take care, have a wonderful day and a happy week ahead.
With being snowbound for a few days, exercise at home was inevitable. May your next week be just full of great critter photos and good safe travels.
DeleteI always do my exercises at home, too. On my walking pad I watch DVDs.
ReplyDeleteOh a walking pad is a great description...I think here they're called treadmills. A friend has one, and says she's going to be using it again soon. I just march in place, and hope my downstairs neighbor isn't hearing my thuds.
DeleteIt's nice to know that you are doing pretty well, and your eclectic photo collection was worth a look. I seem to have run into a dry spell wrt blogging, and that is okay.
ReplyDeleteWell, it means I have less to read over breakfast. Just think about that!
Delete...thanks for sharing Mimi Fariña and Joan Baez!
ReplyDeleteThe sisters being together is a good photo!
DeleteIt is wonderful that you are doing so much better! So very happy for you. I would love to know which video you use for your strength training.
ReplyDeleteMy cardio rehab at the hospital was a program devised by Dean Ornish MD. They have since stopped doing that intense program, but all who took part in it still have access to the videos, which unfortunately aren't available publically.
DeleteThank you for letting me know. 😊. Wishing you continued good health.
DeleteGood on you for exercising! And how great to have results in only a week. I love the scuplture of the Earth-Tree!
ReplyDeleteIt just goes to show how little movement I had been doing before starting these little workouts. I finally worked hard enough yesterday to have some sore muscles this morning (Mon.)
DeleteI have been doing inside pt for my knee, and started chair yoga from an app last week. Both make me feel better, and help this poor knee move.
ReplyDeleteMost of my exercise is from walking.
ReplyDeleteEach of your posts really is a work of art. Thank you
