-The new meds for my Epilpsy completely drained me of any and all lack of motivation.
- Studying for my licensure exam sucked the life out of me and even though I will need to re-test after missing it by 7 STINKING points, I know what to expect.
- Plus the weather here, just plain SUCKS!
We joined a new gym! Yay for Planet Fitness! The beauty of this new fitness club is that I can literally walk to it. Hollar! Plus, it's open 24/7! Sha BAM!
Weekly Fitness Recap:
Monday- 2 Miles treadmill
Tuesday- Rest
Wednesday- Sleep
Thursday- 30 mins Elliptical- this really hurt my knees!
Friday - Rest
Saturday - 2.5 miles in the crazy snow
Sunday- Speed Work .5 mile repeats of 4:49, 4:48 & 4:41
For this first week, after two months off, I'm happy. Right now I'm more focused on speed than mileage. In tommorows post, I'll let you in on my physical goals for 2014 and speed is one of them.
This book walks you through several exercises to see where your knee pain is and then gives you simple strength exercises to relieve the pain. I bought this as a kindle book, so I can take it with me. Many of the exercises are ones you can do on the couch during commercials, while cooking or talking on the phone.
Hope y'all had a great weekend! We are getting blasted with snow and are suppose to get to possibly -20 here. Brr.
Stay warm!
Q: How do you treat injuries? Do you go to a Dr. first or try stuff on your own?
