Daily Routine

2014年05月31日 12時21分35秒 | 日記
Push-ups:20+20 times
Walking: 43 minutes
Standing with one leg :10 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging on the spot :0 minutes

It has been three years and 174 days in a row since I stopped smoking.
I was able to keep two sets of 20-time push-ups for the second successive day and over one
set of 15-time push-ups for eight day straight.
It's actually hot today in Nagoya but not too humid unlike days in the rainy season period.
I'm planning another middle-distance walking but it would be better to stop if such hot days
with highest temperatures of over 30 degrees continue.

Walking: 0 minutes

Three years and 173 days in a row have passed since I quit smoking.
I tried increasing the number of push-ups to two sets of 20 times and kept over one set
of 15-time push-ups for the seventh consecutive day.
It's sunny but actually it's a little humid, which may show this year's rainy season must
be just around the corner.
I've been surprised that there are many cavilers in western Aichi Prefecture, which may
mean there are many unhappy people there.
It's very likely that an unhappy person will get very easily angered and chronically cranky....
Maybe it would be better to have decent endurance.

Push-ups:18 times
Walking: a total of 180 minutes
Standing with one leg :10 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging on the spot :0 minutes

I have kept no-smoking for three years and 172 days in a row.
I decreased the number of push-ups to one set of 18 times but kept over one set of 15
times for the sixth straight day.
Yesterday I did a middle-distance walking from JR Kouzouji Station in Aichi Prefecture
to JR Tajimi Station in Gifu Prefecture through Joukouji Station and Kokokei Station,
which took me about two hours and forty minutes with two ten-minute rests.
The road I walked along is very dangerous for walkers because there are almost no side walk.
Anyway I actually enjoyed the walking with a nice view of a valley.
And I'm planning another middle-distance walking before this year's rainy season has begun.

It has been three years and 170 days in row have passed since I kicked smoking.
Yesterday again, I tried increasing the number of push-ups to two sets of eighteen times, and
kept over one set of fifteen-time push-ups for the fourth successive day.
After a warm rain, it's sunny today and it's not been so humid so far.
I'm planning to do a middle-distance walking in the very near future but actually, considering
the predicted highest temperatures of around 29 degrees, I may as well stop doing it....
Honestly, I'm in two minds about it.

Walking: 60 minutes
Standing with one leg :10 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging on the spot :0 minutes

Three years and 169 days in a row have passed since I gave up smoking.
Again I tried increasing the number of push-ups to two sets of seventeen times, and kept over
one set of fifteen-time push-ups for the third consecutive day.
It's a little raining when I left home by bike, wearing a raincoat, but actually we have very
little or no rain in Nagoya.
Anyway I may not be able to go out or to do walking, I'm afraid.

Push-ups:16 times
Walking: 0 minutes
Standing with one leg :10 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging on the spot :0 minutes

I have kept no-smoking for three years and 168 days in a row.
I tried increasing the number of push-ups by just one time to sixteen times and kept over 15-
time push-ups for the second straight day.
I resumed 10-minute standing-with-one-leg for the first time in a few days after the 4-hour
walking on Wednesday.
It's sunny and sometimes cloudy, and actually I feel a little humid just like this year's rainy
season is coming nearer and nearer.
Although I have not seen a contrail so far, it must be rainy tomorrow.
