Today the master bedroom got completed. Finished installing the vent registers and finally hung the tv on the wall. Installed a new outlet behind the tv and had to get creative with the antenna. We do not have cable and choose to stream for tv channels. I have digital antennas for the tv’s to get the local channels. These are the flat flexible ones that mount on the wall behind or above the tv. Ours was above and it was not the best thing to look at it worked. My return air duct is adjacaent to where our tv is mounted. So why not install the antenna in the air return? We have an upper and lower air return. So before replacing the register I installed the antenna and cut in a box behind the tv and stuck out the antenna wire to connect to the tv. Bam, win for Jim!
This afternoon the newly mounted tv needed some viewing time while it was raining. Nothing like catching the final holes of the golf tournament. This was to relaxing and after golf was over I got up and went into the basement for my first official workout. On my way down I pass the kids and they are right on me heels. “Dad can you turn on the wii? We want to play baseball”. I get them set up and after they argue for 5 minutes on who is batting first they are finally playing.
Now it is time for stats. First I set up my phone to take a couple of pictures for reference of my body changes over the next four months. Next is the weigh in on our WiFi scale. This takes both body weight and BMI measurements. I understand that the BMI can shift a little based on hydration but it is not going to matter in my case.
For my official workout I look at the weights, treadmill, and the spin bike. I am to tired to lift weights and do not think it would be a productive session. So it is treadmill or the spin bike. I choose the treadmill.
Work out: 5 minute warm up 3mph
5 minute jog at 5.5 mph
10 minute walk. 3mph
I took it easy first time on the treadmill in awhile. Last thing I need is to have a strain or injury right away. Overall it was good. Got a decent sweat going and drank some water afterwards.
