Day 3 - Cardio Power & Resistance

I was so tired this morning, so now I have to resort to do this tonight. I got up with Eric, and then went straight back to bed. I need to just kick myself when I do that because then I'm more tired because I already got up. Hopefully Eric stays at work late, so I'll actually have some time to do it. If I was really ambitious, I could do it on my lunch as well. lol But maybe I'll figure out dinner at lunch, and then get right home and do insanity. We'll see.

Also, we get our rec center passes on Saturday. I'm excited about it. This means though, that I have to be SUPER diligent about going to bed by 9. It's the only way I feel completely rested that early in the morning. I want to do yoga there - and they have sunrise yoga from 6 - 6:55 am on tues/thurs. SO, my new schedule will be:

Monday/Wednesday/Friday:
5 am - Insanity
6 am - P90x Arms - There are four arm videos (and pull ups from back and legs) so I'll just do the arm videos 1 - 4 and rotate through.
7:30 pm - Swim

Tuesday/Thursday:
5 am - Insanity
6 am - yoga at rec center

Saturday:
After I wake up - Insanity

I hope to stick to a schedule like this - and get the most out of my gym pass. We'll see what happens. I'm excited.

After Insanity is over, it will probably be a bit warmer here, and I'll probably be able to run again ::crosses fingers:: so I'll run three times a week, and do yoga twice a week. Love it.

Day 2 - plyometric cardio circuit

Did this work out along with the ab ripper from p90x. I didn't have enough time to arms this morning before PT, so I'm gonna have to do that tonight. I really want to try to do this twice a week. Also, my end goal is to be toned/lose enough by the time I go see my sister in April - so I better hop to it! :)

More later!

Day 1 - fit test

That's right - I missed another day, and obviously, couldn't make up two - there aren't two rest days in the week - so I am starting over. I don't feel like I've really completed the program unless I really do the whole program. Hopefully, this will be the last time I restart. At least I'm not 60 days into it like with p90x when I started over. ha.

Also, I think this was exactly what I needed to slap me in the face and get me going for real. Another restart. I say that because, now I feel like WOW MORON, do you really want to start over? And no, I don't. And I really know that I don't want to start over again. So back to eating super healthy, drinking lots, making sure I don't over eat in any one sitting, and exercising. PLUS, we get our gym passes on Saturday and can go swimming more often! HURRAY!

At least I'm still exercising - even if I'm restarting - I'm still doing something - and THAT is a good thing.

So here I go again! Bring it on!

ALSO, I'm not really sure if there is more than one person reading this blog... but if there are, yell at me when I don't put up an entry! Give me some motivation here people!

Day 9 - Pure Cardio

Sometimes... I really don't like this video. It's just too much cardio. BUT, I'm really excited for it today. Here goes!
---------------------
Today was the first day that I was like, wow, pure cardio is pretty easy. The actual pure cardio part is only 20 minutes, and come on, who can't do full cardio for 20 minutes??! :)

It was a good workout. I felt good - my leg didn't bother me at all. The only frustrating thing is having to baby my knee. I always get worried that I'm about hurt it again, but today I just went all out, and was fine. :) HURRAY!

Now time to get ready, make dinner, and go to PT. SEE YA!

Day 8 - Cardio Power and Resistance

So glad I decided to do this then say, oh, start over again? lol I didn't do it this morning, so had to do it tonight... meaning I'm going to bed late tonight, so hopefully I can wake up early still and NOT go back to bed after Eric leaves. ha

Day 6 - Plyo cardio circuit Day 7 - REST

So today I didn't do the exercise - but the last two days I did. So I'm taking the week's rest day today. For some reason, my leg is killing me today. I'm NOT excited. Can't it just be healed already? PLEASE?
