This week I added exercise to my life. Not that it has been nonexistent-I occasionally run, play basketball or ride my bike. But this week I am aiming to make exercise a more formally scheduled event.
The Husband suggested this plan:

So far, so good. On the "Normal Workout" days, I am doing Yoga and ankle conditioning exercises. Sunday is supposed to be a rest day, but I will probably play basketball on those days.
For the yoga, I am utilizing the gloriousness of having Netflix on my Wii. Today I did "The Trainer's Edge: Long & Lean Yoga." It was a good video with easy to understand instruction.
For the ankle conditioning, I am trying to strengthen my peroneus brevis and my anteromedial tibiotalar joint. The PR runs down the lateral side of the lower leg to the outside of the foot. It gets really tight and painful when I run, thus the need to strengthen. The ATJ needs strengthened because I severely sprained it this past August when I ever so gracefully fell off the edge of a sidewalk while walking. Yes, I am that coordinated.
