A longer routine, as this is my first workout of any type after the colonoscopy. It's taken a few days to bounce back from the prep and sedation. Wow, my body really didn't like that! But I'm glad I had it done. Now it's time to ease back into the regular (haha - pun) routines.

Snow Management 1:00:00 [3]
Maintenance snow shovelling to pare down the layers on the driveway, steps, and walkways to prepare for tonight's forecasted snowstorm. Whew! Cold (-21C), but nice and invigorating :)
Woah. Really tired today, and gut is tweaking every few minutes (left side). The most effort today is doing tons of laundry and getting ready for a movie outing tonight (Glass). Still drinking lots of water. Said no to Sandra for a walk - just not up for it :(
Freakin' colonoscopy! Really tired afterwards, and still loopy from the sedation. A few twinges in the gut every so often, and some bloating going on. I'm taking probiotics (Ultimate Flora brand) to try to replace my microflora. Focussing on tanking up on water. I can't seem to get enough! I guess that's normal.
Holy shit! (so to speak) Started the purge-prep at 5:30, and ended it at 10:30. A few visits to the loo during the night as well. So... Even though I drank gallons of water, I'm likely still dehydrated and will be for a day or so. The fasting hasn't been too bad, as I tanked up on nutrients in the days prior to the event. Like training for a marathon! ... A TOILET marathon! Lousy sleep last night.
Tired after a full day of Mentor-Coaching Training! Did the usual, with the standard four cuff exercises and a few extra core ones. Trying to stay well hydrated for Thursday's adventure.

4H loop. Slippery brown squishy snow on the surfaces, so sloggy going. Cold: -16 C, but thankfully no wind to speak of. I felt weak and tired, but that's probably because I was quite hungry when I started out!
Kind of tired today from the last two days' adventures. Decided to leave out the PNF legwork at the end, and instead did more dynamic stretching for the hams. Included added core stuff and did three sets of 10 reps for the first three cuff exercises and two sets of 15 reps for the fourth. Started on the next XBX pushup exercises.
