Remember ha thread where we stated what Xmas jobs we intend to do that day, and then came on later and said whether we had done them or not? Well.

I meant 'that thread' in the title. Sorry.

I'll start the ball rolling. I have done half an hour exercise biking to Guns'n'roses. and I have got a numb fanny

Tomorrow I will have a small exercise day. Twenty minutes dancing in the hall (parquet flooring - no carpet to wear out) to Ken Bruce. Or Abba.

I have been on a four mile walk through the woods down to the River Mersey. It was very quiet...just a few dog walkers and the golf course was empty.
I have done very little exercise for the last few weeks as I had the cough from hell so need to try to get fit again.

I walked 7 miles this afternoon and feel worn out!!

I tried jogging once, but my cigarette kept going out.

Wow, I couldn't walk 2 miles these days let alone 7.
I've done my physio exercises for my neck/shoulder. Does that count

Yes. That counts. Any exercise.

I've breathed a lot.....does that count?

Walked 3 miles through Grantchester Meadows and back.
Won't manage anything tomorrow as we'll be travelling back up north all day, unless I remember to do stretching & toning and the plank before we set off.

Exercise classes which I normally attend 4-5 times a week don't get going again until next Monday, so just doing my usual daily 10-15,000 steps. Turned on TV earlier to find it was tuned to shopping channel, advertising www.beachbody.co.uk/product/fitness-training/hip-hop-abs.do?code=HIPHOPABSCOUK
which looked fun, so ordered the DVDs. I suffer from vertigo, therefore hate lying-down abdominal crunches etc. this works abs from standing up. I have a stack of fitness DVDs which rarely get used, but you never know, I might enjoy them, even if only to admire the men's six-packs!

I think you have all got the wrong idea of the thread.

Never mind.

I might do it all on my own.

Tomorrow I will do another half hour on my exercise bike.

How have we got it wrong Jing ?

I said we would go for a riverside walk today about 3 miles. We did it but were up to our ankles (well nearly) in mud. My shoes got soaked and
I felt a bit miserable. My DH who is usually the pessimist tried to cheer me up. Couldn't wait to get home in the warm and dry.

So much for a brisk country walk.

Ive been walking but I did it to encourage my friend who needs to excersise, I hated it, I prefer to excersise my eyes with a good book/kindle book/magazine.

Tomorrow I shall do my usual 10-15,000 steps. Then I shall come back to say I have done it. O.K.? When the DVDs arrive I shall tell you whether I did the exercises or looked at the six-packs. Is that worded more like you wanted Jingl?

Well, yes. That's fine. Sort of.

But I envisaged this thread to be a bit less super-human more for 'little' exercise achievements.

Haven't you got yer own thread for the 5000 steps thing?

The exercise DVDs sound very include-able.

I intend to haul out my exercise bike to get these wonky old knees working ! 2 minutes to start with , increasing by a minute each day , then once stronger , I'll find my ancient Rosemary Connelly video . I used to love it and managed to do the whole hour before going out to work - funny how we get lazy ? New Year - New Me - feeling happy , happy !

I'm thinking about walking from the bed to the shower....but it's just a thought, does that count jingle ?

No! Norty norty girl!

tiredoldwoman half an hour on my bike can really lift my spirits. And it doesn't affect my bad knee as much as walking can do.

Onwards!

Da - dah ! I actually did 5 mins on my bike while the bath was running ! Feeeling good , will add more minutes each day !
Clever thread , Jinglbellsfrocks - it's got me jingling !
