Sorry...I forgot to tell you. I do most of them. There is a rollerskating workout that I sometimes do. I will add this to my workout for June.

I have long legs so long steps
I'm at about 1800 steps per mile myself.


I could add steps for weight lifting - starting back up today :P
but rarely biking or swimming.


I would like to start rollerblading sometimes.

You do quite a lot Kuan,
Lifting kids counts hugely definitely!
Especially as much as they weigh
Be careful of your back though.
Terrific on the new yoga now ..
Hope you enjoy it.
You get many, many steps every day
