No I am definetly not an endorphin junkie. Actually I am going to let up on my workouts a little. I think I'm doing too much weight for my shoulders which are both still recovering from rotator cuff surgery. I've decided to try gentle instead.
I am also going to back off on my knees, which means stick to the exercises like I sent you and no lunges or squats. And then riding my bike, nice and steady.
Oh, I can't forget my yoga. But it is not a workout, it is my quiet time.

Loong, I know you were kidding. I am doing another article this week on a different kind of workout for the bike. Be sure to read it.
I am planning an e-book. I'm just not quite there yet.
Take care.

Loong, that is great. When I first started riding my bike it took me awhile to work up to 10 minutes. I bet that hip hopping would have been something to see.

I think I could just say dito and cover my workout tonight but if you haven't read yesterday then here it is.
I rode the recumbent bike for 30 minutes. I have increased my resistance to level 4 and let my mph drop to between 12-13. Felt good. Next I did my knee exercises followed by 45 minutes of yoga. I finished off with using my Miracle Balls for about 20 minutes. Yeah Miracle Balls!
Got bad news from orthopedic surgeon today. I've injured my right rotator cuff which is just 18 months out from surgery. She suggested that it could be overuse like lifting too heavy a weight, or performing an awkward movement while working out. I am going to rest and watch it for now.
But the other news was a bit scarier. My left rotator cup is only 9 months out from surgery. I went to physical therapy for several months then started working out at home. The shoulder still has no strength. Hasn't improved much from the begining. So, dye injection and MRI this week. She says might have missed part of the tear in the surgery. Won't know anything until next week. So you'll have to wait for the sequel.

Hello everyone. I took the day off. My shoulders are sore and I just decided to take an allover rest. Plan to ride the bike and do yoga tomorrow.
I'll be glad to workout tomorrow. I actually miss it when I don't workout on one of my scheduled days. Sometimes a short break, even one day, can be motivating.
Good night. TJ
