Didn't get up with the group as I didn't really want to walk/run today. Decided to exercise at night, but didn't really want to do a DVD. Therefore I wanted to do ExerciseTV, but it was down--again. Luckily I remembered you could get it on the internet. I searched a bit and found an 18 minutes Pilates routine that looked good so I did that--low impact, but still moving and getting some benefits. It was a little hard to do with the computer as the screen only faces on direction and is smaller so if I had to position differently I couldn't see the screen....but I did OK.

Didn't get up to workout today....should have....but didn't. Had a late meeting in Milwaukee and got home about 6:45pm or so. After some playing the computer, I finally decided I better work out. Was going to do a DVD, but none really interested me. ExerciseTV. I found a 10 minute standing ab workout that was pretty good. Then I started about 5 other workouts before landing on a step workout to try (w/o the step). I did it for about 5 minutes, then he was doing too many turns that I couldn't watch and keep up with at the same time, so I improvised for about 4 minutes doing jumping jacks, jump rope, skiers, and other aerobic things just to keep moving.

Just the 20 minutes, some cardio, some abs, but its OK. Planning on running early tomorrow.

It's Saturday and it's cold and very windy. No running group for me.

Did my 20 minute Turbo Jam DVD, then wanted to do a bit more. Switched to ExerciseTV and found a 10 minute upper body strength one--unfortunately it used the stability ball alot (which I didn't have out) so I did just about 5 minutes of it with modifications. Then I switched to a butt one--Bootylicious Buns (11 minutes). Ooooh, that one literally kicked my butt. It was short, but intense and focused just on the butt, with some quads too.

Really lazy Sunday. We didn't leave the house all day...just did laundry, dusted, vacuumed....that's about all. Finally decided to exercise in the evening. I wasn't in the mood for one of my DVDs, so I looked on ExerciseTV and found a 20 minute workout called KickboxBootyCore....doing just that, intervals of kickboxing, booty exercises, and core stuff. Not too hard, but definitely could feel a few of the moves.

It's my birthday and I'll...... I was going to get up and exercise at the hotel this morning in their workout room, but Bill had other plans for me. ;)

Then breakfast at the hotel was only til 9am, so I figured formal exercise would wait til later. After getting home from Chicago, I procrastinated a bit, but then gave in. I really want to stick to at least 20 minutes of exercise a day. I decided to try some new things off of ExerciseTV. I did a 10 minutes Ab workout and a 10 minute butt/thigh workout, plus a dance-stretch workout for about 3-4 minutes. I really have to get motivated to do some good cardio soon.
