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.

Walked (forty minutes total, ish), did pushups. Yoga later.

Yoga this morning, 30 minutes.

Morning yoga, a Yoga Today class, and then some core work in the evening, because I haven't done anything core-specific for ages.

(Core tension gets worked a fair amount in the bouldering, especially when I'm upside-down under a roof, so I mostly feel okay about slacking off at other times, but I sort of wanted to check in on the state of my abs and back.)

I went swimming after work. After freaking out about it for so long, I finally got up the nerve and did it, and I am so glad I did. I managed 20 lengths in about half an hour or so (it took me a while to find the clock) which is abou double what I thought I'd manage, so I am pleased with that.

I think I'll try going at lunch time later in the week - see if it's quieter. I will certainly be making it a regular thing.

Morning yoga: Shiva Rea's Solar Meditation, Water, and Lunar Meditation. Note to self: Water would be wonderful for working the kinks out after a long car ride. Remember that for next weekend, ok?

Evening yoga: Power Yoga with Rodney Yee. I am loving Rodney more every time *hearts* and he seems to be loving me back.
