A bit of a shorter strength workout today as I didn't want to focus as much on lower body with the aforementioned aches. Also not much walking today so I'll be walking tomorrow.

=================== Notes: =====================
Went on a walk today and went grocery shopping todaybut I seem to misjudge how far these walks are -- I was aiming for 10000 steps (you know the usual) -- I guess I've gotten slow in my COVID confinement! Tomorrow is back to strength training so I expect less walking

I still feel sore from two days ago so I didn't push hard. Also still trying to go easy on my joins/knees so it looks like I'm skipping leg day

. I'll try going walking tomorrow.

=================== Notes: =====================
I still feel a bit of pain in my knees sometimes, but it's light. I got PT for this a while ago... and I thought it was better

. I guess I've been doing much lighter versions of the PT exercises so tomorrow instead of strength work I'll do the full routine as opposed to the lighter version I've been doing everyday.

=================== Notes: =====================
I did not do the greatest on time management today. Didn't managed to make the extra credit on the daily dare, which I normally am able to (I can only do a bit over a minute on the tricep dip hold). Not the best day a bee has ever had -- I guess I'll just have to do better tomorrow.

=================== Notes: =====================
I am looking around and lots of people on Darebee are doing the Darebee Advent Calendar. I missed that completely, guess I wasn't paying attention with work related stuff this week -- a shame as it looks fun. I felt better today after my PT exercises so i think I'm going to have to keep this up for a while so that my joins can stop aching again. Tomorrow I plan on walking more.
