What I'm Reading This Week #21
Happy Friday all! I am beyond thrilled to not having to babysit seedlings indoors anymore. I know I need to babysit them outside now but I am going to have to do some serious research on how to stop algae and white mold because I feel like I tried all of the tricks and nothing helped. I can't wait for them to actually bloom. Well, my cantaloupe have flowers on them. I guess I'll have to get some knee high panty hose to hang them from on the trellis. I'll be keeping my eye on those bucket crops because I know it won't be long before critters try to come after them and when they do, I have insect nets waiting for them. HISS! So we'll see how phase two goes. Now let's phase into: 5 Best Compound Exercises to Strengthen Your Whole Body (Get twice as much done in half the time!) 10 Anti-Inflammatory Foods You Should Be Eating, According to Registered Dietitians (I wish I liked avocados, maybe if I made a sassy guac/salsa combo w...
We do the same formal stuff but when in the office I try to get up and stretch or do calf raises or lunges. I also take the stairs as my cubicle is on the third floor. And I walk as much as I can for extra movement there too. Now if I just had the same movement potential at home I'd have been better off during the glorious time I was full telework!
ReplyDeleteI envy the amount of opportunity you have to get longer walks in there. You know the shoebox is hard to lap more than twice hence the floor bike.
DeleteFor the most it's either WATP (various miles depending on the day/time available) or walking at the park, then stretchy band exercises (on park walking days), ankle exercises from my PT, plantar faciitis exercises with curling the towel and wall stretches for the toes. Three days a week I do wall pushups at varying degrees of tilt, chair sit-to-stands since I can't do lunges, and dumbbell strength exercises. Twice a week is 45 minutes of myofascial stretching of my entire body at the end of the night before I go to bed. I'll usually do that on the days opposite of the strength exercises because it's just a relaxing way to give my body a break but still getting those muscles worked and warmed. If I could go back to the pool right now, that would be my exercise of choice. I used to do that 3 days a week for 2 hours at a time and got in my cardio and strength at the same time. AND my joints and feet felt amazing. It's not an option right now but one day I'd like to get back there.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a heck of a routine there girlie! Awesome!!
