Back to the Y


This morning I went back to the Y!  I've been neglecting it recently.  Initially, I stopped going because I was busy helping my 86-year old mom with various issues.  Then I just got lazy and was sitting too much.

Today I did a cardio class:

 
Then a yoga class:


I will probably not be able to get out of bed tomorrow morning, but it felt good to be active again.  This time I'm going to keep it up!  

When I allow myself to be inactive I start to give in to inertia, then ennui sets in, then I start to feel depressed because I know I am letting myself go.  It's a vicious circle.  Anyway, I've broken out of it now.

Judy, this is awesome!
I know I would never be so daring... two classes, the same day! You are my inspiration.

Wow, thanks! I'll let you know if I can get out of bed tomorrow.

Yoga is great, you can even do it at home. Just a few poses will feel good.

They do feel good. I have a DVD I use at home. The class was much more strenuous, but it still felt good.

I so admire your motivation. I'm trying too but walking is enough at the moment - cardio would finish me off! Hope to dust the cobwebs off the bike soon. Keep up the good work Judy!

I believe walking is the best exercise. I like to walk when the weather isn't too hot, but all summer it was. Thank you for the encouragement.

i prefer fall to summer for that reason...much easier to walk!
