March 9 to 22

 


I let a week get away from me there … not really, but we will just go with that one. I’ve been keeping a decent schedule here, doing the morning session almost every day in the morning, only occasionally need to get it done later in the day. I just keep wanting to get my evenings back,  I will get them back, just not yet. Exhaustion and a young puppy are keeping me in the house, with a garage full of objects in the way. 

I do have a plan, just nothing I would want on the internet just yet, thanks.

Morning sessions are as follows:

8-10 minutes just plan mobility - baby pose, thread the needle, push ups, cat/cow, WGS and others as recalled.

8-10 minutes of hips - putting socks on stretch, swimmers kicks, thigh pull ins, clamshell and single leg lifts, hip thrusts. Push ups, too. 

8-10 minutes hip cars and squats, push ups.

Depending on the day, that last 10 minutes were cut off as I had to be a husband or keep a dog from regicide or other crimes against humanity. Also poop duty.

Mar 2 to 8

 


I feel like Jack tonight, with my Army being insulted. Someone I care about insulted my stretching to my face. And I took it. To be fair, they care only for my future and want me to be mobile at 85, and so evidently I need to get back to a doctor and have them tell me what to do with a Physio about my knee. 

Well, I know it is about my hip. Shocker. Anyway, I'll have to get into that over the holiday coming up, I guess. that and book an appointment for the RV to get looked at as well. Anyway, I got stretching done mostly in the day, but all of the days. Just some were later in the day, that's all.

I did a good deal of walking this week as well - the dog needed me and my house needed me with the dog. We saw the snow melting day after day after day. Nice to see the white stuff go, even if it reveals all of the dog, bunny and whatever else poop left behind. 

The iMac in the garage also got quite an upgrade with an Airport Express with ethernet cord hook up. Went from slowly sort of streaming movies to actually streaming movies. It's rather fast. Now I need the space in my garage gym back so I can get back to the training I like doing in there, man ... 

Morning sessions as follows:

8-10 minutes 90/90 stretches, WGS, thread the needle, cat/cow stretch, cobra to downward dog stretch and push ups.

8-10 minutes of abs - swimmers kicks, putting on socks stretch and hip bridges. Ab hollow holds, push ups.

Some days that was it, other days was able to add banded bicep curls, banded overhead presses. Hip CARS and general good stuff for everything.

Feb 23 to March 1

 


Yeah, this was a weird week, just weird all told. A lot of Almost all three rings closed, but not complete closings. Whatever, I had a day “off”, getting to the hippy doctor for my hip … XD and a day of complete Paw patrol. Balance … always balance. 

I’m writing this on my “new to me” iPad9 with an external keyboard, Which was a real win. There are all kids of improvements happening thanks to the AI agent. It’s all good. Even a new Apple Watch Series 9. Nice upgrade from the Apple Watch 3 I had been using for the last few months. It was a bit of a show getting and getting it working but in the end, it worked out and I’m seeing a bunch of new data that wasn’t being shared, as the old watch was just that way.

Hit the stretching session every day, but really missing the evening swims still. I really do need to get back to those swims. Shrug I’m not sure my father would have taken into consideration the dog when going out in the evenings, but whatever.

Morning sessions as follows:
