Despite having Monday off from work for MLK Day this work week felt oh so long. Why does that always seem to be the case? Despite the hectic schedule, the workouts continued. Here’s a quick recap of the week.
Week 3: A Long Short Week
Monday — Lower body strength & Core
Tuesday — Upper body strength, Core & 1-mile walk
Wednesday — Unplanned rest day
Thursday — Upper body strength & Core & 2-mile walk
Friday — Lower body strength & 2-mile walk
Saturday — Peloton bike, Upper body strength & Core
Sunday — Yoga
Highlights & Lowlights:
Wednesday was one of those days that was a reminder as to why I’ve made returning to early morning workouts a goal. Best to work out before your day gets hijacked!
On Thursday, I had my follow-up appointment with my sports ortho – of course, this was the week that some intermittent glute pain returned…sigh. Thankfully he didn’t see any reason for me to test out some run/walks as long as I let “pain be my guide.” He also wants me to keep up with my PT/mobility exercises and to put in more time on the Peloton. I followed up the appointment with a trip to my massage therapist. Overall this day was a win!
Given the pending forecast for this week of more snow and icy conditions, my first attempt at a run/walk may or may not take place this week – I’ve waited this long, I can wait a little longer, right? There will, of course, be a lot more time on my bike 😉
