Day 7
First off, last night I did 10 minute solution pilates: sculpt (the arms, chest and back one with weights) and then I did the first two sections of Stripilates which I got off of Ya-Ya Swap. It's definitely interesting. I will be trying more of it soon. I finished up with Yoga for Meditation: Garden which is seated postures, and this was the second time I did it, but it seemed harder this time. Amazingly enough - I didn't want to even do yoga last night but once I started I enjoyed every minute.
Another day - Saturday which is one of the hardest days on me eating-wise. So far so good though - I have been so busy that I haven't snacked.
I just got my workout in a few minutes ago. I am following the Firm January rotation, usually substituting in videos I want to try for the type of firm video of the day. This week I will be following and doing the firm videos it shows. So I started today with Complete Body Sculpting with Christa. It's been awhile since I have done this one, but I really enjoyed it. The amazing thing to me is how much easier choreography is becoming the more I workout. I don't mean the more times I do one individual video - I mean just doing videos overall. 5 years ago I would have never tried Cathe, I mainly did Denise Austin because I could get most of her moves. Now I love the Firm, can see the addiction to Cathe and want to try some others who are new to me (Mindy, Christi Taylor, etc.) Fitness is a great thing.
Tonight I have some more pilates and yoga on tap. First I need to finish getting down the Christmas decorations and I really want to go and get some scrapbooking done. Anything to keep me from snacking. Well the baby is calling right now, must go and tend to him. He and the 5-year old appear to be sick. I have been seriously washing my hands and praying because I really don't want to get sick right now (though that seems to be what typically happens when I start working out again). I've done 7 days of working out so far and still plan to continue every day in January!
