Just keep swimming

Today I swam while son#2 had his swimming lesson for 30 minutes.

That counts as 30, so I have 90x to go this week. I'll be at the gym tomorrow. Maybe I'll get some cardio in this time.

We have beautiful weather this week, so I should be able to get a bike ride or 2 (either pulling a bike trailer or 'trailer bike'.

Dragging my butt

I dragged my sorry butt to the gym. I didn't wanna go. I was very late. I went anyway.

I promised myself that I only had to do one set of weights, just to remember everything from Tuesday's review session. Of course, once I was there, I did 2 sets. Unfortunately :), that left me no time for core work. No crunches for this girl. My stomach muscles thank me.

That counts as: 10 minute warmup + 45 minutes of weights = 33 units.

This week I'm at 103: 17 to go!

Personal reminder

I had a review session with my personal trainer. We just went over the program she set up for me back in March. She checked my form and reminded me about squeezing butt cheeks and tightening abs and all that stuff.

So today, I had a 5 minute warmup, about 50 minutes of weights, and 20 minutes of cardio on the treadmill. And last night, I had a brisk walk from the LRT to the arena (about 10 minutes each way). So I'm at 70/120 for the week.

little swim

I had a short swim today during #2 son's swim lesson. I probably swam about 15 minutes.

Tomorrow, I have another session with the personal trainer to review my weight program. She's going to teach me again since I forgot everything she showed me last time. Duh.

gym time

The YMCA was in a state of controlled chaos. Some kids have spring break, so there were day camps scattered around the building. Some high school kids are in school, and they use the Y for gym class. And the normal volume of people were there too.

However, I managed to get my weights workout done before a batch of high school kids arrived, so I had some peace and quiet.

Today's workout: 10 min walk, 30 min weights, 9 minutes run/walk, 10 min rec. bike = 49 units

And it's a beautiful day, so I might go for a bike ride with son #2, if I can get my back tire inflated properly. I'm having trouble getting the valve stem in the pump properly. I'm sure it's just me...

finding the wagon

I need to get back on the workout wagon. First I have to find it. I could have gone to the gym today, but I went for coffee with a fellow pre-school mom instead.

I did nothing on spring break except the hiking required to get to wherever we were heading. I chose to pack up for departure instead of swimming.

I did do a good grocery shop yesterday so we have lots of healthy stuff to eat around here.

Tomorrow is a play date for my son. Gym on Thursday for sure! I have to get running to catch Dawn!
