Week One-Hundred Thirteen of REAL...

Sigh... I do not know what happened to this post. It's been in the queue for publishing for a while and everything in it disappeared. Oddly enough, when I open my last REAL post, it also shows empty, even though the content is on my blog. Weird.

REAL - Reduce stress Exercise Adequate sleep Lower caloric intake

RIght up front: Never in a million years could I do what is required. However, I needed to start somewhere. Considering how fit the SEALs are, I figured it was a good place to start. So my SEAL puppy reps (SEALp) consist of girls' pushups, crunches, and flutter kicks, a SEAL training basic. I started with doing one of each. 

Hip lifts

PT ~ Physical therapy using 2-lb and 1-lb weights, alternating days.

UB ~ Upper body exercises

I've worked up to 50 and then 10 more.

BD ~ Belly dancing (my version of it, anyway)

The 16th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. BD.

The 17th: 1-mile walk. PT. BD. 1/2 hour of yard work. 

The 18th: Rest. 

The 19th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. BD.

The 20th: PT. BD.

The 21st: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. BD.

The 22nd: PT. BD.
