OT: Great advice - go for a walk

[HuskyNan]

Since the gyms are closed.... its the only form of exercise I can get until the end of the month, at the earliest. I usually head to one of the parks in the city 2 or 3 times a week.... gives me a chance to get some sunshine.... and do some dog watching. Went for a 40 minute walk this evening in my favorite park. followed by a 1/2 pound cheeseburger, fries, and a side of ranch dressing.

My personal trainer is streaming my sessions, adapting them for the equipment I have at home. you should be able to find a variety of workouts on YouTube or I would highly recommend downloading the free - and well regarded - 7 Minute Workout app. There are other, longer workouts on the app.

Great timing Nan, thanks. Our neighborhood gym closed for the duration yesterday... and then the blizzard hit. Walking outdoors will be a slippy-sloppy mess for the next couple days, so I'll check this out.

Fresh Air is awesome... get off the treadmills and tracks, walking the neighborhood is better due to the scenery!

I always walk in one of the 4 Public Gardens my city has.

So you were healthy and supported local businesses? You are a paragon, my friend.

After my walk today..... I think I might go support my local bakery

I was thinking earlier this week... that it looks like I will have to go back to doing pushups, sit-ups, chair dips, and resistance bands workouts in the den. Plus there is always lawnwork to do

When I play golf I always practice social distancing, usually by hitting my ball deep into the woods..,,,,

I recommend playing golf. It is a great way to walk, be outside, and get aggravated at the same time!

It was sunny and 85 degrees on Friday....... so I headed to the park and walked for an hour (3.34 miles according to my phone). It NEVER fails.... seems like every time I wear Duke gear to that particular park.... I always cross paths with at least one Husky. I always keep my eyes on them.... you never know when a Husky might want to take a chomp outta anything Duke related.

We’ve been doing a walk along the ocean most days. There can be a decent number of people there. Given the circumstances, I’m not crazy about encouraging a lot of people to this spot. It can get busy enough. Stay safe.

My walk tonight

Well.....I don't work so good anymore....so.....I saddle up Gracie..... and we kind of stroll for a few miles to check on things around the ranch. Frankly, it is really a pleasure as things come alive this time of year and color of the wild flowers is impressive.

What? No duck walking to the supper table?

I do the pulleys for a half hour listening to ragtime piano. I always said that if I could ask God for one personal favor it would be some type of musical talent. He's a practical joker. I can't even play the radio.
