Readers’ Workouts — November 19
Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where book lovers share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges.
I’m right on track to meet my goal of 1400 minutes of exercise in November. I got caught up on Sunday after the wind storm came through our area. I took lots of steps and performed many squats to pick up sticks in our yard and area. I’m grateful that our winds were straight, not twisting, and only lasted a few minutes. We were lucky. My heart goes out to those who were effected by the tornadoes.

Hi Joy, I think my workout week has started great! I spent a good 10 minutes doing a series of dynamic exercises: sumos, lunges, cariaocas, butt kicks, etc…then did 30 mins of walk/jogging, then did some clam shells and hip strengthening exercises. And I still have the rest of the week to go!
That’s a terrific workout! I forgot about clam shells. I used to like those — I’m going to add those in today!
Thanks Joy for inviting me to link up! My trainer told me today that if I stick with him and my strength training, I will have no worries about my new diagnosis.
Great news from your trainer! Your terrific attitude will help, too.
Hi Joy:
I got majorly inspired by a 78-year-old woman who finished the Ironman World Competition on Sunday! http://www.midlifecrisisqueen.com/
I made sparring and group class at the karate studio last night, but today I’ve been felled by a cold, so tomorrow’s session looks in doubt. It’s rare I email in to work sick but I’m not in much shape to drive.
Hope you feel better soon!
