Creating an exercise habit for the previously unfit

(1/70) > >>

meadow lark:
This is a new exercise accountability/discussion thread.  It was started for those of us that are not fit, who want to become healthier, but of course the more athletic at welcome too!

meadow lark:
Today :
Steep hike to Internet Rock (where I have to go sit to get Internet) 15 min round trip. X2 (I aim for 3 a day, but it is about to rain).
Jog to the driveway gate (75') to open the gate for the truck x2
Leg exercises (leg lifts and squats) and very modified push-ups

joonifloofeefloo:
I'm in! I don't consider myself unfit. I'm just nothing.

Things I Love Moving My Body In
freestyle dance, no start and end minute
long hikes with only quiet adult humans
long easy silent bike rides
swimming in a lane all to myself, with no child to care for
swimming in ocean/lake/river with wide berth but humans nearby
very specific aquafit class with very specific instructor

I will look for more opportunities for these.

Here!  Fourth day in a row with some decent walking (more than half an hour) while baby-wearing or pushing the stroller.  It doesn't feel really significant but doing it adds up.

FrugalZony:
What do you mean for the previously unfit? I was in such good shape a couple years back! But not now.
So if the currently unfit may join I am in!!

Yesterday: 15 min walk to store and back in 99F heat.
I think, today I'll wait for the sun to set before I go for a walk.
We have a lovely greenbelt here.... we shall see!
