exercise_every_dayHey, EED community!
Here is your daily check-in post! Hope everyone is having a great day!
If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.
1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.
2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.
3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.
4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.
5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Date: 2011-01-08 02:57 pm (UTC)On the flip side, yogaing relaxed me marvelously. And you know how the beginner yoga DVDs say not to go all the way up into down dog at first, keep the knees deeply bent then not so deeply bent then shallowly bent and only then straighten them? I just noticed I don't have to do that anymore. And on the lunges in the sun salutations, I can have my arms overhead no trouble, and triangle pose, I can look up instead of straight out. PROGRESS I HAS MADE IT.
Also, fifteen minutes of speedwalking laps around the kitchen, because I no get to go square dance tonight *sadface*. In socks, so my feet are unhappy, and there's an owie in one of the muscles inside my thigh, not a cramp, possibly a strain. Grand.

Date: 2011-01-08 09:39 pm (UTC)I can see that with the exception of the Yoga part of things - and I do like the Free Step where you can change over to the television - I'm going to outgrow the WiiFit fairly soon and move on to Sports Active more and more. But I do like certain parts of it, I really do.
