Not the best week, but not the worst week, either. It’s a pretty common trend, but one I don’t mind too much. You’re not going to kill it every week, but every week, you have the opportunity to try again.
So, let’s do this.
Cheers.
If you figure out a good indoor exercise routine, let me know 🙂 Cycling is getting to be a real pain in this cold weather!
You are so organised: I’ve not started Christmas shopping yet!
I need to actually look. Oops. But I’ll let you know! I was always impressed with you cycling out in the cold, with all of your writing updates. I’m sure a little indoor exercise might be a night alternative!
Oh gosh, it was more motivated by the fact that I wanted to ensure I had enough money for bills and Christmas shopping, so I wanted to just get the shopping out of the way. 😛 Trust me, it’s normally not like this!
The only thing I’ve come up with so far is digging out our old xbox 360 and kinect sports! Thanks 🙂 I was enjoying cycling until I fell off my bike in the snow. Figured I’d stay in the warm for a bit!
Ah, that’s good motivation! I’ll get mine started eventually, I’m just terrible at getting things done 🙂
Oooh, that could be fun. I’m leaning towards just doing some body weight exercises (like lunges, squats, bicycle kicks, tricep raises, that sort of thing) with dumbbells. I may not burn a lot of calories, like I do with cardio, but at least I’m still working towards my goals. I’m glad you’re okay! I remember when I got my first bike as a kid and insisted I take it out on Christmas Day to ride it, only to wreck it (and myself) slipping on ice around a corner. *facepalm*
Hey, you still have plenty of time. I’m just too much of a planner to wait (plus, I love Christmas, so…XD).
I have some small weights I use 5 times a week. Pretty good for muscle tone 🙂 Thanks: That sounds exactly like what I did! (I should know better to slow down for ice at my age haha!) I had enough of planning for NaNoWriMo, which I think is why Christmas planning went out the window! At least we have our tree up now 😀
I really need to get into the grind again. I’ve definitely been pretty lazy the past couple of weeks. Oops. 😛 Hey, you still have time and NaNo is draining, so take time to recharge and don’t fret too much about Christmas planning!
