Exercise

Life 1 Minute

Yesterday I went all out. I did 10 minutes on the rower and 20 on the regular stationary bicycle. I then went over and used the weight machines and did multiple arm weight exercises for another 25 minutes. Seeing that I had been at the gym for an hour made me happy. My back was a little pained last night but it was fine when I woke up. Today will be leg day if I go to the gym.

My question is this. I know I’m supposed to take 2 days of rest per week from major exercise (as per the personal trainer) but I still want my 30 minutes of exercise in. I still cannot just walk and that would be the easiest thing to do. Stupid pinched nerves!

What are your thoughts?

I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before. I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him. I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do. I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion. I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different. There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

  2. Maybe yoga? You can do that in your home and they have Youtube videos that are 30 minutes or longer that can get a good workout in it but are easy flowing and they even have videos from my favorite with YogaWithAdrienne that target specific areas and things so you’re exercising with purpose!

      3. Oh there’s tons on both:). I would suggest looking for a hatha yoga or a gentle yoga to start with as I personally find the flow ones more difficult to move through:)

  10. You take your time to rest like your trainer told you to do. Self-care is so important. I have neglected it so many times to the point that I got so mad and upset with everyone around me and I was miserable. Now I take time to relax and enjoy myself. You should do the same. I’m so proud of you. You’re doing so great!
