Not a lot of fitness going on here. Since I injured my back it is hard work to even walk more than a mile. It's a bit of a catch 22 situation; I know that exercise will help my back but my back makes it hard to exercise. Even the exercises recommended by the Doctor proved difficult. One of them looked incredibly easy but to my horror I found I could not even do the arm movements and had to resort to anti-inflammatory pain killers.
I'm building up gradually, walking a mile or two at a time and doing a tour of the machines in the ladies gym but can only manage low weights at the moment. It was too rainy to walk yesterday and I couldn't get to the gym so I did a couple of exercise DVD's with my Daughter. We would have made better progress if we had troubled to move the drum kit and guitar out of the way first but as it was we worked around them. The neighbours were no doubt grateful that we ignored any instructions to jump, not that I could have jumped unless I had rocket boots, and were glad of a rest from the drums and guitar anyway. We did some yoga too, somewhat hampered by the cat marching over us and then the arrival of an audience, imitating our efforts in comic ways whilst dressed in a striped dressing gown and cartoon slippers.
