Exercising into a new decade - AKA New Year-athon 2020

[OublietteBravo]

Happy New Year! I’m starting a nice shiny new thread to keep track of my 2020 exercise goals. Please feel free to join me.

My goals are:

1. To do some exercise on at least 250 days during 2020;
2. To do at least 200 hours of exercise.

I did a short swim today. I wasn't going to count it but my arms are falling off, so I will

Days exercised 207

Weights this morning.

Days exercised 208.

WO11 done

Short cardio session: BFBM (50 min)

(192/58; 192h 00min)

I've also had two rest days. My asthma has been very bad. Saw pneumologist today and he reckons it must be African dust which has been hanging in the air for a few days that caused it to flare up. Got medication and hopefully will be able to exercise tomorrow. I'm actually looking forward to it after two days off!

That doesn't sound great, Sophie, hope you're on the mend with the medicine very quickly.

Thank you MotherForkin. Feeling much better today and slept.

Just did 2 lilly sabri challenge for abs plus 45 mins lilly sabri for butt and thighs. I think I'm going to be sore tomorrow!

Days exercised 219

Abs again: 6W6P L2 and KAbs L1 (60 min)

(193/57; 193h 00min)

Glad you're feeling a bit better, Sophie. My brother has reasonably well managed asthma but it's always a worry.

Lunchtime sea swim today. It was invigorating.

Days exercised 209.

5km Interval run Plus abs work. Ran out of time for anything else will see if I can fit in a 10
Min underbutt workout later...

220 Days

Sorry to hear about your asthma Sophie. My DH suffers with it and it’s really debilitating when it flares. Glad you got medication sorted and are back at sorting out your underbutt 😁

Your abs must be rock solid Oubliette!

Jealous of your sea swims MotherForkin. It really does sound lovely, if a bit cold 🥶

Rest day yesterday as in the office. WO12 today. Thank god for the last circuit in that one. She really must know she is killing you and eases off a bit in the last circuit.

5 mile “Walk with Leslie“ today in place of cardio 3

I had a very restful rest day yesterday and couldn't figure out how I'd managed to do 20k steps. Turns out my watch counts me knitting sadly it didn't raise my heart rate very much.

Today was a heart pumping sea swim. I was fooled by the sun shining. ❄️

Days exercised 210.

Lilly sabri toning for abs, triceps, back and butt plus a short yoga session at end to stretch me out.

Thank you Roonetta and at your watch counting knitting MotherForkin!!

221 days

WO11 done. Last week!

I had the weekend off. Starting a new exercise DVD today (well, I’ve not done it for a few months): Ri30 L1D1 and 6W6P L1 (65 min)

(194/56; 194h 05min)

5km interval run plus strength for abs and butt.

Days exercised 222

WO12 done

I was really tired yesterday so did nothing. Weights this morning.

Days exercised 211.

Ri30 L1D2 and 6W6P L2 (65 min)

(195/55; 195h 10min)

Well done on getting those two workouts done Oubliette! That's brutal.

4 mile "Walk with Leslie" today as still can't face Jillian's cardio

Did a yoga session with cat Meffan this morning and then some abs. Tomorrow will be a rest day as already know that I will have no time to exercise!

Days exercised 223

Ri30 L1D3 and KAbs L1 (65 min)

I’ve decided to keep switching the abs circuit so that I don’t get bored.

(196/54; 196h 15min)

I'm suffering massively from nojo at the moment. I had a very half hearted run last night which was more walking than running so I'm not going to count it.

Weights today. As of midnight tonight up lock down levels here. I feel worse about this one than the big lockdown in March

Days exercised 212

Oh no @MotherForkinShirtBalls that sucks. I don’t suppose you know how long it will last either? It really is the pits at the moment not knowing from one minute to the next where things are heading. Does that mean no gym too? I think keeping up with exercise is more important than ever to keep your mood up, but I know it’s easier said than done.
