Sunday, January 8, 2012, Check-In

[muck_a_luck]

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 (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.

Yoga, full introductory sequence from my DVD (though sans DVD). One-mile walk or thereabouts. One set five or six reps each of assorted resistance bands exercises. I feel all ~*accomplished*~ and I only hurt a little bit.

Running outside, 6.7 km

Kickboxing (2*10 minutes) and bodyweight strength during the break and afterwards - lunges, crunches, squats, and hperextensions.

More pistols practice. Also wanted to do some intervals and ran around the lake outside doing some walking, jogging, and sprinting.

day of migraine. :c

Morning yoga, climbing (lengthy but leisurely as I tweaked a shoulder muscle, so then ran round seeing what I could climb one-handed), shadow yoga homework.

Ran a mile. I've managed to do this fairly regularly lately and I'm almost at the point where I can do the entire route without resting, at which point I will have to figure out a new route I guess. :/

Or do it twice...

Run: 35 minutes, yoga: 20 minutes. I hadn't gone on a run for almost 2 weeks; I was on a trip where it just wasn't that feasible. So I ran even slower than usual, but I found restarting my exercise routine to be less challenging than I had expected.

Vinyasa yoga class, 75 minutes.
