So I had to do some yard work today. Yes it is cold outside and there is not landscaping to be done but something I had not done since May or June last year…scoop poop. I have a 90 pound lab and since I was put on bed rest last June and then had the whole problem with the C-section wound infection and the gaping hole in my stomach for 3 months, the back yard did not get scooped. It was nasty. It did only take an hour today but I had to work hard and fast for that hour. Raking many piles and then bending and squatting to pick it up and put it in the bag. My thighs were burning and so are my arms from raking.
My second workout was giving my 90 pound lab a bath. Not and easy task believe me. It took 20 min and I pretty much just bring her in the shower and bath her and then myself. It is quite comical.
My third workout today will be my tap class tonight so as you can see, I may not be doing the total gym today since I am working all day.
I am pretty sore in the arms and legs so did not want to totally burn myself out before dance tonight. Will pick back up on the total gym tomorrow since I won’t have to scoop the back yard!
Oh ya and I have to say that I barely broke a sweat today doing these things. My stamina is getting a 100% better. It is nice to be able to move after dong hard work!
