Sunday, August 21, 2011 Check-In

[alexseanchai]

Hey, 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 (or someone else) 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.

SQUARE DANCING. In the POOL.

A crapton of laser tag and DDR and a little bowling.

2 more hours of cleaning. Possible push-up and squat training later.

Went for a walk along the trail near where I live. 20min.

[weirdquark]

19 min intervals on elliptical; some push-ups, horizontal pull-ups, etc.

[smackshack]

A long walk to figure out the best route from my house to the new light rail station. Learned that there's no path from the neighborhood to the rail station: you have to walk a big loop around to the main thoroughfare and then double back to the station. Which blows.

And then there were push-ups and sit-ups.

We went to a park, strolled around and came back by foot.2h+?

Goal: comment more regularly.

[rydra_wong]

Morning yoga, three and a half hours climbing (though it being a weekend, a fair amount of the time was spent socializing). 25 full push-ups, 75 on knees (mostly in sets of 5).

5km of walking

[flowerstar]

Bicycle tour, 40 km.

[devildoll]

Six Week Six Pack, Level 1, modified as needed for ankle sprain.

And yesterday after I commented I gave in to temptation and went for a short hike. 1 hour, hilly, not sure on distance and pace because the battery in my Garmin was dead. That's what happens when you are sidelined for two weeks and forget to put it on the charger. :(

[semielliptical]

Hiking, 1 hour.

[lyorn]

Rest day. Kind of.

[willful_zephyr]

Vinyasa yoga class.
