Pre-COVID  I use to work out at local gym 7 days per Week. Now I barely get a 1-2 mile walk a few days per week. My goal is to return to exercise 7 days per week.  Walking, biking, yoga and weights if raining.

I am committing to exercising every day in May, beginning on May 6th.  I know that exercise will contribute not only to a healthier lifestyle, but also a healthier mental well being. It will keep me moving and enjoying the outdoors. I will either bicycle for 30 minutes or do a zoomba class via youtube at home. Exercising and having fun daily!

I am committing to walking 5 days a week for at least thirty minutes.  This simple exercise offers benefits in physical and mental wellbeing.

@katpash You've got this! It's hard at first finding a good spot scheduling -wise but give it some time. I truly disliked waking up and working out right away at first, but once I got into the rhythm of it, it really made my days a lot better.

Great work Jaymee! It definitely gets trickier to find the time for working out, working, and taking care and spending time with our families. I recently had to switch up my schedule and have been struggling to get my workout back in a spot that works for me. Good luck and great work!
