I have been keeping track of my exercise every Friday for 5 years, and plan to continue doing so.
Since the pandemic started, I have been keeping track of “firsts,” and more lately, I have been trying to note good things (“fabulousness”). It’s a good way to pay attention and not let life slide by.
Friday Firsts
I must confess, I didn’t really note any this week.
Fabulousness
I was also too pooped to note anything fabulous. Unless you count getting a day or two off from work.
Fitness Log
The goal is to get 150 minutes of moderate exercise, of which (ideally) 60 minutes should build strength (yoga counts); if I am working in the hospital, my goal is just 90 minutes, which is a more realistic stretch during those busy days.
How did I do?
- Saturday: I was exhausted after a long 2 weeks working in the hospital. No exercise.
- Sunday: Still exhausted, and the weather wasn’t inviting for a walk. Still no exercise.
- Monday: A much better day, with a walk to my pick up point (20 minutes) and a workout with my trainer (30 minutes).
- Tuesday: A long and rainy day, no exercise.
- Wednesday: Tennis lesson today, I was very rusty after 3 weeks of no-play. 60 minutes.
- Thursday: A walk to my pick up point, 20 minutes.
- Friday: A walk in the neighborhood after work, 20 minutes.
Total: 60 minutes walking, 30 minutes with my trainer, and 60 minutes tennis. 150 minutes on the nose.
CME Goals
- MKSAP: Finished Neurology, started Hematology.
- CME Videos: None until after boards.
Woohoo for meeting your fitness goal this week!
Thank you for the encouragement, Michelle, it is much appreciated.
