Today is day 10! I started my workout around 8am. Day 2 of the strength training workout that I do is rough! It's core and legs, so there are a lot of lunges and side lunges, which I really hate doing! I had to keep telling myself to just push through it and when I got to the 3rd set, I kept reminding myself that it was the last time I had to do these until next week! I pushed myself! I didn't give up! I got through it! It wasn't an easy thing to do, but I got through it!
After I was done with strength, I decided to try to Wii Active 2 game that I got a few months ago. I didn't even open it when I got it. I had to peel the wrapping off of it and set everything up. It was easy to set up, just a little time consuming. But not that it is set up, I won't have to do anything crazy later.
As for the game, I got a good cardio workout and it kept track of my heart rate. I set up my own workout, which wasn't well planned since I had never used the game before. I just picked exercises that I thought might work for me and repeated some, but I really had no idea how any of them worked. My creation was a bit messy and really had me repeating things that weren't necessary. It wasn't bad for my first time, but I would definitely do it differently next time.
Next week, I plan on doing the 3 week cardio workout plan they have set up within the game. It is 4 days a week for 3 weeks. It's worth a try! I have to get in at least 20 minutes of cardio a day and I think each day is a little more than that. It will be good for me to get into a routine. I'll have the other games I have as filler or extra workouts. I don't want to review Active 2 until I have gone through the 3 week routine. We'll see how it holds up!
