 Pick your poison, how are you moving today? Let's get those butts in gear and those calories burned. 

Motivate me on this rainy, icky day!

We had the rain and the ick yesterday, where-in I did an upper body weight workout and nothing else.

Knee starting to feel better, might be up for a walk this evening if the weather holds, or maybe a short Leslie Sansone Walk at Home. Today's goal is 5000 steps, building back up to my daily goal of 12,000 by the end of the week.

Today is also my crunch day. The torture plan on my app for today is 213 crunches broken up into 5 sets.

Pre-op weight: 319 lbs, BMI 48.5
Current range: 140-144, BMI 21.3 - 22

175+ lbs lost, maintaining since February 2012

 I think I need to get in on the crunch thing, what is the name of the app?

It's just called 200 Situps (all one word). The logo shows a sit-up, but the directions make it clear that they want you to do crunches (in fact, they say don't go by the logo which begs the question why not change the logo?)

Anyway, there's also a website, which is free. I think the app is $1.99. http://www.twohundredsitups.com/

They have a lot of different programs. My next is the 100 push ups on alternate days with the situps. Since I have real trouble with them, I'll start with bench push ups and do the whole program through, then again with floor push ups. http://www.hundredpushups.com/

Then, when I completely finish the situp program and my knee is at its best I'll do the 200 squat program, first without weights then maybe with. http://www.twohundredsquats.com/

Between these three exercises, introducing some obliques into the situps once I've finished the program, you really do hit all the major muscle groups. After I've finished the program I plan to set-up a plan with squats and pushups 3 days a week, crunches the alternate days and one day off a week.

Rainy miserable day here in Nova Scotia.  Today is day 2 of week 2 of my C25K training then Elliptical to top up to 50 minutes.  I am running at my local indoor track so rain won't stop me.

Sunny day here! I'm drinking coffee and debating hill climbing on the treadmill (really need it) or less strenous but longer-lasting hike in the park.. I'm thinking I may just head out to the park for a while later, listen to some birdies as I hit the trails.

Today is supposed to be a cross training day for me, but I woke up with an urge to run. I have tennis tonight, but may do a quick 1-2 mile jog before hand.
