Mowing

Got to mow the yard today with both the tractor mower, and then the push mower.  I love mowing the yard.  However, I haven't mowed in a few years, due to pregnancy, and then recovery from that, so the job fell to others in the family.  I found there were rocks to be moved, trash to be thrown away, and areas that I had to be delicate with, due to trees being planted since I last got to do this job.  Anyways, it felt really good to be out in the warm sun mowing the weeds, rocks, and lawn. 

Aqua Spin


This is pretty cool . - the biggest difference between a regular spin class and an aqua spin class is that aqua spin is said to reduce stress on joints due to the low impact, the calorie burn is up to 900 calories per hour, your body temperature is less elevated and therefore the participant is more comfortable, it is a reduction in muscle aches and pains due to the water involved!

Eat Bananas



Try this-Before you exercise, have something small to eat or drink that contains carbohydrates. It could be half a banana, a glass of orange juice or a piece of toast. The snack can help power the workout ahead so you give it your best effort.

Pilates Alphabet

Pilates Alphabet - lie on the ground, raise your legs and write the alphabet in the air with your feet. - My stomach was on fire after this!
Pilates Alphabet - lie on the ground, raise your legs and write the alphabet in the air with your feet.  I may get through half of the alphabet first time through this.  I'm going to try today.  Seems so simple, but remember, I don't exercise.
