Went extra hard on my pushups yesterday! Did a lot and tried going lower than usual. My abs hurt really bad today.
Exercise Check In
Sep. 4th, 2023 07:56 pmAerial hoop practise this week. My thighs have been tenderised, and my shoulders are still feeling it.
Can the community give/enable tags for individual journals? Those really help for tracking progress and finding one's own posts. :)

Check-in Aug 17
Aug. 17th, 2023 09:52 pm1 hour of strength training and about 2 hours of kayaking. Which would have been quite leisurely, only I did not know the river and had not done any kayaking for ages, so it was very dramatic. Fortunately, the rental kayaks forgive nearly everything.
3 hours in the boulder gym. None of us felt very energetic, but some tops were reached and some tricky start positions solved.
Plus, walked about half an hour in the heat and then rode an electric scooter home for another half hour. The latter is probably not exercise, but it felt that way.

Aug. 5th, 2023 09:45 pmCan one be to busy to check in here?
Anyway, today: Went to the boulder gym with friends for most of the afternoon. I accomplished nothing special, but it was fun.

Check-in Jun 29th
Jun. 29th, 2023 02:42 pmSwimming today, first time since last August.
Only 300 metres, but if the shoulder is fine tomorrow, it's a start.
Found that swimming (breast stroke) uses very different muscles from bouldering and the strength training / physical therapy exercises I'm doing.
Also booked five more sessions with the personal trainer.

Today I took a walk and also rowed. It was my first time using the row erg and I quite liked it!

Jun. 21st, 2023 11:21 pmLast August I badly damanged my shoulder, swimming, of all things. Repetitive motion and cold-cramped muscles triggered an inflammation of the joint (which is already damanged, long story), it took 3 months to get it treated, and since then I'm trying to get back range of motion, easiness of motion, strength, and get pain free.
Half way there, I think. I'm currently working with a personal trainer, doing PT exercises 5 days a week, and I'm back to bouldering and bicycling, though not yet swimming (I'm scared) nor weightlifting.
Also, due to another health issue, I am still suffering from fatigue. Everything takes more energy, and I get tired a lot faster than I used to. It is very annoying.

Mar. 8th, 2021 12:09 pmI realize that I failed to post here all last week -- well, it was a hectic one.
Today I did: Standard PT exercises, but no core strength as my back has really been bothering me.
16 minutes on the treadmill at 2.6mph
The weather here has been delightful, so my morning and afternoon walks during break have been delightful.
