Exercise !!!!

[flutter-by-us]

Been on the treadmill today WW?
I still haven't been on mine it's in a shed and I need an outdoor socket and for that to be connected otherwise it means endless extension cables every time I use it in these arctic conditions ..................

I did "Just Dance" at the office party yesterday

 

[Spinoza]

Explain Just Dance please B?

Never do two days running in a row Flutter - did yesterday, so I'll do tomorrow now.

Are you thinking of a long jog this week? And yes, the electrics are faffy - can you get OH to fix that better for you pet?

 

[Quak]

It is a wii game, cheesy dance tracks - wave remote around while dancing, hopefully in time and to prescribed moves, win points and get fit(ter) simples lol

 

[Spinoza]

Ahhhh - we have Boogie, which is similar Bren. Great fun!

 

[Quak]

I really like the look of that Kinetic thing on 360 or whatever that fancy job is that is out now.................your body is the controller instead of the silicone covered gadget (that just sounds rude) but not buying another system when I already have the wii.

 

[Spinoza]

Nah, I can barely work the one I have!

Games console that is, not body.

 

[Quak]

I must just make better use of the wii, I must just make better use of the wii, I must just make better use of the weeeeeeeeeeeeee lol

 

[Spinoza]

Sounds like a new year's resolution that does!

 

[Quak]

Oh yes, and mine is to do more of the title of this thread lol

 

[Spinoza]

Ah, just started a thread on this very topic Bren!

 

[CeeCee-is-MeMe]

Great thread! Everyone always tells me exercise is the key (to be honest everyone who tells me that, are skinny & sit on their backsides all day lol). But i kno it's true!

I used to jog many moons & stones ago. I'm nervous about starting it up again at this weight. Don't want to do myself a mischief going to try and increase the speed of my walking for a start.

Good luck with ur exercise adventures

Hi CC - I WILL get back to my walking at least when the snow has gone

 

[CeeCee-is-MeMe]

Hi Quak! Can't say I blame u. We only just got rid of the snow my way & it's on it's way back! I wouldn't leave the house in this weather if I didn't have to lol.

Im with u. I will DEFO get bk into my walks once the snows stood trying to sabotage my efforts.

Bren... there is a rumour that something similar will be coming out for the wii next year. I hope so as the kinetic looks amazing. x

 

[Spinoza]

Back on the treadmill again today hopefully. Sadly slipped in wet wellies in the kitchen and wrenched my back again when it was only just better after the last back debacle. I want to do 8 miles as that's close to my usual Sunday run which I can't do outside today for obvious reasons. Will report back later.

Oh no Water, you poor love!!! You must rest up until you're properly mended! Mind you, it's easily done, especially when we don't have a house full of servants and have to just get on with things

 

[Spinoza]

Thanks Susie, got my run done (8.2m as I was too busy singing and forgot to check the distance). Back was fine - I fear tomorrow may be a different story though - feels all stiff!

Anyway, I shouldn't complain, it's nothing compared to your horrible fall and all the pain you soldiered through!

 

[Spinoza]

Not at all - I love a little running talk Alpa! Today I knew I was going long, so just set it at 6mph for the whole time. Usually my treadmill run is 6m, and I've got into a habit of starting at 6.2 and going up by 0.1 per mile, so the last mile is 6.7 (hard for me,LOL) and I always do a little quarter mile run at 7-7.5mph at the end. [That's the sad part when I am imagining myself sprinting over the finishing line of some major race].

Oh no, I've said too much...

 

[Spinoza]

I would just like to state categorically that the theme from Chariots of Fire is NOT running through my head when I do that last wee fast bit! No not ever.
