End of Month — #ReadersWorkouts

Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where book lovers share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges.
With three days to work with, it looks likely that I’ll meet my goals. I’ll need to average 30 minutes of exercise each day, plus get in one strength-training day and one day with more than 8000 steps.
For May, I think I’ll set the same goals. I met them rather handily in April, but there were challenging days. When I get my exercise in the garden, I don’t get enough steps. When it rains, I struggle to get enough minutes. So, I want to build a little bit of leeway into my month.
How did your April go for exercise? What are your plans for May?
For Readers’ Workouts, talk about your fitness activities on your blog (feel free to grab the logo) and link to your post below or join us in the comments! Be sure to visit the other participants to see how we all did.
I did my regular Monday night’s workout at the karate studio, my instructor did one of those “everything you know is wrong, think about it like this” moves in my lesson to change the way I kick.
Next month I’ll be starting a weights workout 3x a week, a work friend wants to get me in shape for my black belt test, whenever that may be. First we’re putting in the workout, then he’ll put me on a diet.
I haven’t really though about my goals for May. The run I’ve been working toward is on May 9, and I haven’t really though past that yet.
Congratulations on a successful month! I’m trying to walk every day, but the rain tends to interfere with my plans. And I know I should ride my exercise bike daily, but have trouble sticking to a schedule. Going to work on my consistency.
Good luck next month!
