Legs- Squats- standing at your chair, sit and stand repeating as many times as you can.  This will work your legs and buttuck.

I went to PA for a few days.  I needed some rest today after an action packed few days.  I went horse back riding.  That isn't easy for me to do with the MS and scoliosis.  I needed to be carried to the car after holding myself on a moving horse for an hour but I am so glad I did it.  I can have an excuse to do nothing and an excuse to gain weight but I wouldn't feel good about myself if I did.

Triceps - Hands on the arm rests of your chair, arms straight.  Bend and lower your body then push back up again.  This will work the back of your arms.

It gets a lot harder for me to function when the weather gets warm and sticky.  I did my exercise at home today instead of going to the gym.  I did stretches, push ups, abs, and triceps.  No matter how I feel I got to do some exercise.  I didn't eat much since I didn't do a lot today.  But I always eat something.  I had a protein shake in the morning then salad for lunch.  It's important to calculate how much to eat so you don't over eat.

I'll try not to wait so long before I post the next exercise.
