"Workout"
Last night I was back to work..Friday nite waistressing shifts a great way to make some quick cash!! I finally figured out my new toy!! A Pedometer watch I received for Christmas..uhh what 3 months ago.. But I got all the settings figured out and I wore my new watch last night, hoping to track just how far I walk on these grueling shifts.. If you have ever worked a fast paced, slammed, server shift you know..the next day you feel it. The weird part is..is that I did this job for years and it never really phased me. I was off two months..and Bam..it's like I'm starting over from the beginning. I feel so out of shape. Last Saturday morning I woke up and my feet hurt...actually my whole body took a hit. This morning I feel rather tired and sore..I walked a total of 10.3 miles last nite..and burned 875 calories according to my watch..WOW! No wonder I'm feeling like a had a hard workout. Below is a little outline for a basic "Keep Fit" exercise program for the average adult..
