Activity Summary for Dec. 1-7:
Total days I got some form of physical activity: 6 out of 7
Total days I did weight lifting: 3 out of 7
Estimated total hours: minutes of all activity (excluding stretching): 4:50
This doesn't even count my physical therapy "homework" which includes 3 sets of 15 reps on 3 different strength exercises (with a rubber stretchy band), so a pretty good week. Since Sept. 1, I have had some kind of activity a minimum of 5 days a week and I'm averaging 6. As the post before this one illustrates, my persistence is paying off. That's very encouraging. When I complete my "5 Health and Fitness Goals in 55 days" challenge, I'm going to set myself another health and fitness challenge, but I think this one is going to emphasize having FUN while staying active and healthy. :)
