exercise_every_day | August 18, 2010, Check-In

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.

Elliptical machine, stretches, meditation. (Something went wiggy with my dvd, so I have to find out how the situation with Dr Who, the creepy high school, Giles, and the gargoyle-bats all ended up.)

I love that episode so much.
Yay for the exercise too!

It was so much fun! I'm a new Who fan, so I had not met Sarah Jane before. I loved her bickering with Rose - too funny.

Ab day! Abs, abs, more abs. 8 minutes of Creative Core with Shiva Rea, w3d2 of 200 situps, 5 different ways to do crunches on my strength training, and an aerobic video with a concentration on the core. \o/

Morning yoga, shadow yoga class.

Oh, and I got my chin to the floor in equal angle pose!

In shadow yoga, for samakonasana, you do a wide-legged standing forward bend, then put your hands in front of your feet, fingers pointing to the side, then slowly edge your feet and hands further and further out, looking forwards. It was really, really weird to realize my chin was about to hit the floor, because I'm pretty sure I'm not that flexible.

Yoga this morning. Gym after work, yoga before bed is the plan. I am hoping I will feel better in the gym than I did on monday after getting back into the yoga.
