Senior needs help with my work outs.

From the 70’s “F”ing Ridiculous Electronic Device
I checked previous snow shoveling sessions & an hour usually results in about 500 cal
 
Another snow day here in Ontario. About 20 cm of snow to clear from deck, patio & walk. It’s 1degree C so This stuff is wet and heavy. Not like the fresh powder last week. Took my wife & I an hour together. Then another 20 minutes on the tractor/blower to clear our 35 meter driveway.
 
We got hit with 30 cm of snow Friday night, courtesy another Texas low. My wife and I spend 2 hours shoveling ourselves out & another 45 min with snowblower to clear the driveway. Today a leasure 45 min on the Treadclimber cardio.

Another bright sunny day here in eastern Ontario. 0C, but gusting winds from the north 60kph. Walking into a head wind sure pushes the heart rate up. Bell doesn’t seem to mind, but she’s lower & much smaller profile.

Not me, in another 10 days we’re heading to Samana Bay, Dominican Republic for two weeks of sun, R & R. You can have our place for two weeks if you miss it that much! Snowblower is in the garage. LOL

Nice & sunny without the winds today. We walked same route and pace as before, but my heart rate only exceeded 127 for 8 seconds. Compared to 17 minutes yesterday.

No head wind! Pushes heart rates up going into it, & moves you faster going with it.
Today’s weights session, I upped the reps from 10 to 3sets of 12.

Weights & walk with Bella Sunday. Not a quick pace on our walk today. This is what happens when you meet neighbours walking their dogs. Gotta stop & talk while our dogs sniff butts.
