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: 2010-09-09 05:40 pm (UTC)then I did w1d2 of the 100 pushups program.
then I did (or attempted, anyway) 108 pushups with Shiva Rea. I got 17 minutes in and my arms started hurting too much. I knew I couldn't finish, so I stopped and did some gentle stretching. Ouch! But Shiva Rea is going back to netflix and I'll soon have Jillian Michaels in her place. Don't know how that will work out, wish me luck!
Still have ST to do.

Date: 2010-09-09 05:50 pm (UTC)I would like my motivation back now, please. I'm getting out there and doing my runs and my times are fine, but I'm suffering from a bad case of "don't want to."

Date: 2010-09-09 06:04 pm (UTC)You'll get so much out of it, though, even while you are hating it. And I sort of like her as an instructor, even while I hate her.

Date: 2010-09-09 06:08 pm (UTC)I totally get that! It's what willpower is all about. Be Frog, and give your cookies to the birds! Don't be Toad and go home to bake a cake! :D
In case my reference is too obscure...
Oi. Now I made myself want BOTH cookies and cake. Luckily, I don't need willpower, because I don't have either. :D
