Consistency builds endurance.
Today’s focus will be on full-body strength combined with controlled endurance work on the treadmill. The goal isn’t maximum speed, but maintaining form and building the ability to sustain faster paces over time.
The sub-29 minute 5K pace is becoming familiar territory. Each session strengthens the foundation for faster efforts ahead.
Progress comes from showing up — especially on ordinary days.

Day 85: Rebuilding Strength — Listening to My Knee and Moving Forward
⸻
Day 85 of Everyday Exercises.
Today’s focus is controlled leg work, core stability, and maintaining forward momentum while respecting recovery. Some days are about pushing limits. Other days are about protecting progress so the body can continue improving long term.
The goal is simple: stay consistent, maintain movement quality, and allow strength to rebuild naturally.
Today’s exercises include:
• Toe touches
• Jumping jacks
• Star jumps
• Hanging knee lifts with L-sit hold
• Curls and squats
Followed by a 40-minute walk at 7.5 km/h, with the possibility of a light run if the knee responds well.
This channel documents real training, real setbacks, and real progress at age 57. No shortcuts. No filters. Just consistent effort over time.
Progress isn’t always linear. But consistency always wins.

EVERYDAY EXERCISES – February 15, 2026
Today’s focus is controlled upper body work, core stability, and sustained aerobic endurance. The right shoulder still requires smart management, so the emphasis is on strength endurance and controlled movement rather than maximum load.
This session builds durability, reinforces pulling strength, and continues raising aerobic capacity.
Exercises:
Push-Ups
Australian Pull-Ups
Curls
Jump Rope
Plank
Pulse Squats
Commando Burpees
Cardio:
Run – 10.8 km/h (6.7 mph, 8:57 per mile pace) for 20 minutes
Walk – 7.5 km/h (4.7 mph, 12:52 per mile pace) for 20 minutes
Total Cardio Time: 40 Minutes
Holding sub-9-minute mile pace represents a meaningful aerobic threshold effort. This strengthens the cardiovascular engine while reinforcing efficient running mechanics. The walk phase keeps the aerobic system active and promotes recovery without complete shutdown.
Everyday discipline. Everyday progress. The long game continues.

Everyday Exercises
Day 83 of the Everyday Exercises journey.
Today is a recovery workout, but recovery does not mean inactivity. Recovery days are where durability is built. The goal is to keep the body moving, reinforce core stability, and strengthen the lower body without excessive strain on the joints.
This workout focuses on controlled core movements and light explosive lower-body exercises to maintain coordination, balance, and muscle activation. These types of sessions help prevent injury, improve endurance, and prepare the body for future harder efforts.
The 3-mile outdoor walk continues to build aerobic capacity while allowing the knees, shoulders, and nervous system to recover from higher intensity training days.
Consistency is the foundation. Every day contributes to long-term strength, endurance, and performance.
Real workouts. Real progress. Real time.

Light Mat Workout + 30-Minute Run Re-Test | Consistency Over Perfection
Today is all about staying consistent while listening to my body. This will be a lighter mat-based session focusing on core stability and movement quality before re-attempting a 30-minute steady run.
Mat work included plank hold, mountain climbers, jumping jacks, and bird dog to keep the core engaged without overloading the shoulder.
After that, I will be re-attempting holding 10 km/h for 30 minutes — a key cardio benchmark as I continue building toward stronger 5K performance. Finish with a 10-minute walk at 7.5 km/h to reinforce endurance and recovery.
Not every workout has to be max effort. Some days are about building the base so you can push harder later. Real progress comes from stacking consistent days.

DAILY WORKOUT — February 11, 2026
Today is about smart consistency — not forcing upper body when recovery matters. But I will be testing my cardio threshold limits.
Upper body: Full Rest
Core + Lower Body Focus + Cardio Threshold Work
Workout Plan
• Jumping Jacks
• Side Squats
• Reverse Lunges
• Calf Raises
• Rocker Abs
• Alternating Straight Leg Raises
Cardio Goal
🏃 Run: 8:56 per mile pace — goal is to hold for 20 minutes (no shorter)
🚶 Walk: 20 minutes at 7.5 km/h
Although this is not a max-effort workout, it is a true test of cardio stamina.
Today’s focus is seeing if I can hold a solid, steady pace for 20 minutes, which is critical when building toward a faster 5K time.
Real progress is built on days like this.

Recovery is still progress. Today’s session is about staying consistent, keeping the body moving, and building durability one workout at a time. Focusing on controlled strength (Australian pull-ups), core stability (dead bug), mobility (cobra stretch), and light cardio to promote recovery and blood flow. Then finishing with a steady 40-minute walk at 6.5 km/h to stay in the game while letting the body recharge.
Real progress isn’t made only on hard days — it’s made by showing up on recovery days too.
