I've had a lot on my mind lately

Red Deer Poing
Trying to remember what this exercise stuff is all about.
This time of year the days get shorter and the darkness gets longer and my natural inclination is to retreat into my cave and hibernate until the light comes back. Recent political events are reinforcing that instinct. Just hide until there is light and warmth and growing things.
In other words, I haven't done any exercising.
  • AM: 15 minutes exercise. Jumping jacks, squats, lunges. -Done. Not very vigorously, but done.
  • NOON: 30 minutes likewise -Done. Not very vigorously, but done.
  • PM: 15 minutes likewise. - Done. Took a brisk walk during the fifteen minutes of non-rain this afternoon.
There. Not deep or profound or all that exciting, but it's going to get me started again.

The trick is to start. Anywhere, any how. Good work!

Hibernating sounds good to me. I have been doing my shin splint exercises without fail, but not much else except work. The possible shin splint--undoubted shin PAIN--is in the right leg, and the bad foot is the left foot, so, compensating for something somehow.
I have had a madly energetic young dog for a week now. Watching him zoom around the fenced yard does not count, but he certainly tires me out.
