Readers’ Workouts — August 6
Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where we share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges. A new month is a great time to start a Tuesday habit of linking up with Readers’ Workouts for accountability and support.
Rick has decided he wants to walk every day. That’s been a big boost to my consistency. I’m going to have to work a little to get some more intensity of exercise in my day. Last night, I managed a little strength training — that should help!

It helps to have a partner who makes you get out and workout even if you don’t want too.
Having two dogs who love to walk (and are better behaved after a walk!) is a big motivator. And having space in the basement dedicated to working out helps to make it part of a my routine.
I’m sure having a consistent walking partner will help with your motivation. Yay! Mine is much more of a stroller than a speedwalker, so I understand what you mean about boosting intensity on those days.
I’ve been doing well with three workouts a week, with 25 mins varied cardio, 25 mins strength training, and 5-10 mins of stretching. This week’s schedule is Tuesday-Wednesday-Friday.
I certainly need to factor more exercise into my day, but having Chronic Fatigue means it’s a little difficult. Great idea
Yeah for the walking partner!
I’m focused on decompressing from the business stress from the launch and the excitement from travel. rebalancing and taking it all in. Sadly I have had to schedule time to read so I can create a habit again.
Always a work in progress!
