Daily Movement - Wednesday, December 23

[purpleowl]

Good morning!

These threads are for those who'd like accountability and encouragement in doing intentional daily movement. Anyone may join in at any time!

I keep missing these threads but I walked the dog tonight that’s all.

[Jenny in Florida]

Coerced the dog into walking 3.4K/2.1 miles, then came inside for 30 minutes of boosted walking with Leslie. 

I have done a little light strength work, but still need to complete day 12 of the 12 Days of Fitmas challenge and ride the stationary bike for a while at some point today.

I forgot to post my morning walk - it was 2.6 miles. Also did arm work and 4 more miles this afternoon.

I got in a lot today.

30 minute DDPY workout

12 minutes of incline walking in the treadmill with my backpack on

2 mile hike with a friend

1 1/2 mile walk in high winds with the neighbor lady.

At first I misread that as "high heels" and I was like...why? 😂

I'm glad you were able to get a lot of movement in today!

We got in the usual dog walk earlier today.

I had a weird, hard fall this afternoon--for better or worse I couldn't catch myself. I continued to have some pain, including my left knee and arm/shoulder, and didn't feel I should do my usual cardio stuff after that. This is the first day since I joined this thread that I'll miss my cardio!  

I did 30 minutes of a stretch and flexibility focused pilates tonight, just before this post. I'll head to bed soon. I actually think the pilates improved the pain.  Hopefully with that and some good sleep I'll be back to normal tomorrow.

I hope you wake up feeling normal again. ❤️

1 mile walk at home video with DD10 - the last mile she needed to earn her Nutcracker Medal from YesFit. And a 45 minute live DDPY class on facebook live. Was feeling tight and my back was hurting but I realized I'd only done the 10 minute warm up yoga the day before...seems if I do that little, my back hurts the next day.

Ouch!

Jessica Smith has a "recovery day" workout that is about 20 minutes that might help while you work you way back to normal. Feel better!
