try something new challenge:
cathe friedrich HiiT 30/30 (you can find clips on u tube)
instead of using a timer or the actual video. i used a list of exercises she does, and 90's dance mix on u tube.music is already in intervals. i modified some of it: jumping rope instead of high jump moves, and didn't use any equipment.
glad i finally tried it. i've been thinking about it for months. you can also use a free online timer on speedbag forum/timer.

I failed at trying the jump rope, or something new this week.

But I did attend spinning 7 times from 10/20 to 10/31!
