Fitness Log #282, Friday Firsts And Fabulousness

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.
