Woke up wondering what ab workout I was going to do today.

Does This Dirty House Make My Butt Look Big?

I am so proud of myself!  Today, I got my exercise time out of the way early in the day.  It was so nice to "not have to be somewhere".   I put in a 5 mile advance walking dvd which took about an hour and 10 minutes and then I did some yoga stretches afterward for about 15 minutes.  I spent a good long time on myself today..."because I am worth it!"  I didn't get very much house cleaning done, but then again, you can't fit a clean house into a pair of jeans!...

1 mile walk warm up and Jillians Shred

Yoga!

I love yoga!  I love the feeling of stretching out my muscles and joints, but it does not feel like I am burning many calories because it does not raise the heart rate or stress the cardio system.  I tried the exercise tv yoga with Maura Barclay and it was intermediate to advanced yoga.  I was able to do the static poses but the flow routines went a little quickly and I was not that famaliar with the vocab.  It was hard to see the tv and pose my body in a static pose!  I love yoga and I plan to incorporate more into my workouts.

We're Just Burning Fat...thats all

I came home tonight at about 6 pm and right into my exercise clothes and got right to it.  I got down to bizzzz-nesss, no messin around, did not wait, did not procrastinate, got er' done!  I put in a walk dvd just to warm up, popped it out and shoved in Jillian's 30 Day Shred (level two).  I crunched it out....just burnin' fat ....thats all!....

Dear Anonymous

I decided to follow your advice and I tried the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader Boot Camp.  It was different and I really liked Jay Johnson's comments, "crawl, walk, run" and "leg kicks will make your glutes salute".  The cadence was a little too cutsie for me, although it was meant to feel like the Marine Corp and Jay is totally built solid like a tank. My favorite comment of his was, "Some people drive in a Ferrari, we just live in ours."  Overall it was a good workout and it was fun being out on the Dallas football field!  I am... "on my way to a power squad bod..."  whooo, hoooo!

Do I Hear Delight In Your Voice?

I love Monday nights.  When Monday nite rolls around it essentially means the "day", of Monday, is over.  Today was a rough one, I got up late, and still felt sleepy, went to work and worked hard at "delight", sounding delightful,  feeling delightful, and trying to convince myself and others that today is a perfectly delightful day!  I can't really admit that my exercise time tonight was all that "delightful"   It was the Biggest Loser Cardio Max dvd and I got all sweaty, winded and just plain worn out....but tomorrow is delightful Tuesday!...followed by delightful Wednesday....you get the idea....
