Day 37 - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly To-Do List

I got this great idea on Saturday to write one big to do list. Well, at the time, I thought the to do list was going to be about five lines long.....but as I kept putting my list together, it was evident that I was going to need another page. Uh-oh! And another page. Yikes!

I got so caught up with everything I had to do on my to-do list that I almost forgot to work out! Can you imagine forgetting to work out? I know..that happens to A LOT of us on a daily basis huh. We forget to work out ;-). Unfortunately, I remembered and did 4o minutes of the U.S. News and World Report comprehensive workout developed by sports medicine expert Vonda Wright.

It's actually kind of cool. There are 4 principals: flexibility (stretching before working out), aerobic exercise (making that heart work by walking, hiking, bicycling..doing something active), strength training (to build and maintain muscle) and balance (like standing on one foot, yoga, tai chi, etc.). Check out www.usnews.com/10weekfitnessplan for more info.

So, while hubby was working out on the bike, I did 10 minutes of each and it was kind of fun too. Until tomorrow, make it a great day, even if you have a big bad ugly to do list.
