About Me

As a mother of three, the wife of a Navy pilot and a wide-eyed optimist, this life has left me with a lot of questions. Some deal with raising three distinct personalities, some with the traveling required by my husband's job and some on just what is right and wrong anymore.

Strength Training!

Posted in Running, walking, just being healthy

     I never realized how much we need strong back muscles....I got to play 18 holes of golf on Saturday.  It was wonderful!  But, my back was really hurting when I was done.  I didn't carry my clubs, but I did walk most of the course.

     I found out from my Runner's World magazine...the best way to have a strong back is to have strong abs.  They all work together to form a strong "core."  This is the key to keeping the back pain away.

     So, today I made sure I got my strength training in...working with the rubber ball and band...it's super low impact and forces you to concentrate on each individual muscle group.

    I missed working out two days in a row...argh!  But I am back on track...running tomorrow!  Keep moving...here's to our health...icart!
