This week I added two 30 minute sessions of weight training. I am proceeding very slowly with that to avoid injury since I haven't done weights in awhile.
I'm still on track for my goal of 900 minutes for the month of June. I added a whopping 365 minutes to my total which included a few hours of weeding and planting. (bending and sweating counts, right?)
I varied my workouts in another way this past week. I usually exercise alone and occasionally with my best friend, the Admiral. (sorry Pete) but, rarely with anyone else.
Last week I went for a long walk with an old friend and I highly recommend it! We talked books and writing and a hundred other things, chattering away as the miles and minutes went by painlessly. It was a welcome change from my usual solitary , meditative walks. Exercising with a friend can be good for the body and nourishing for the soul.
