It has been a slow start to the year. I had planned to begin on 1/5/26, but I ended up with a back injury, and in week two I contracted COVID. I’m still dealing with some chest congestion, but I’m getting started anyway.
I’ll be working mostly from home this week, which should allow me to get some consistent exercise in. I do have a day trip scheduled, so that will be a lighter day.
Exercise for the Week
(Most workouts are conducted on the Mountain Tough platform.)
- Morning: Beginner MTN Tough Yoga & MTN Tough Minimal – The Mountain 2.0
