Step back a few weeks

Tuesday, July 1, 2014

It's really just a coincidence that I started this endeavor on the first of July.  Seriously, it is.

I dusted off my balance ball that I had at work.  My co-worker and I bought them last year and used them for a couple of weeks, but, I guess we lost interest.

So, pulled it back out and plopped my butt on it.  The first day, I think I only lasted 3/4 of the day.  If your butt is not used to sitting on these, it starts to ache after a while.

 

Since that first day, I have only used my balance ball to sit on at work.  After the first week of getting used to sitting on it again, I started the exercises.

My exercises included crunches, push ups, planks, and other made up movements.  I did one or a couple of these at least every 2 hours, some times more often.  I really did work at it.

I felt awesome (after the initial aches and pains).

So that's the lead story, now back to my other "losing and getting fit" chronicles.
