Does Simple Count?

Today I went with another easy move for my 44.  I used one of my plate weights (25 pounds)  plate weightand did a seated/weighted calf raise.  Seated/weighted calf raiseAnd, a selfie in the mirror  to start the day!

So, the past couple of days I have been trying to pick the easiest moves possible (and ones that don’t require much movement) so that I can still do a daily 44.  This morning I started wondering – “Does it really count?”

I’m not sweating, hardly moving so can I call it part of my daily moves?  I even thought about skipping it completely this morning but I know myself and at some point today I would have done something and then thrown together a post because I have issues!!!

However, there are those rare instances (like now) when I actually get sick and just the thought of jumping or running or moving quickly makes my head spin even more.

Do you try to justify things to meet a goal?

Happy Monday!!
