7km brisk walk
30 mins yoga (class was cancelled so just did a YouTube video instead)

19,900 steps so far. Will make sure I hit 20k before bed!

I always struggle to do much on a Monday, maybe because I do a lot at the weekend? I have a strength class tomorrow and will walk there and back.

WearyAuldWumman · 27/04/2026 20:38

Very brief fast walking warm-up. Fastest pace, 7.4 kmph.

Lat Pull, 26 kg. Only did a few and my form was terrible. Shall go down a weight next time.

Trices pull, 26kg. Managed that better. Ditto biceps curl.

Pilates class, 45 minutes.

I have bought an adjustable weighed vest. I’m planning a couple of post work walks this week, I’m loving the extra light. I finish work at 4, usually I finish my day at home as my clinical work typically finishes at 3. So I can definitely squeeze two 30-60 minute walks in and a longer walk on a weekend day. Add in two to three of my strength sessions and hydro, that’s pretty good.

I’ve managed 5 visits to the gym this week.

3 x lower body strength sessions
2 x upper body strength sessions
1 x cardio workout
And a couple of walks to loosen off my legs on the rest days.

Also continued to punish my arms at home by clipping a hedge and hauling up a load of ivy.

Forgot to add my workout number: 65.

@FurForksSake excellent work! Sounds strong!

Lower body workout at the gym today. A brilliant laugh and I needed cheering up.

Those sound lovely @Comtesse

Someone told me about Kassandra yin yoga videos on YouTube, they are grrrreat.

Today - some jumping around to a musical number this morning then 20m cheesy walking video (using Motown songs) tonight.

6k walk

My poor thighs are done in!

WearyAuldWumman · 23/04/2026 21:48

Yesterday was 63.

Just did a bit of walking today. One app is saying I've done 17 minutes of brisk walking; the other is telling me I've walked 12,948 steps or 8.3km.

Could swear it was more than that - my old iPhone genuinely misses steps, but I'm unclear about distance.

64, I guess.
