Still on Level 3 of Shred. I'm so proud that I haven't missed a day. I wish I could control my eating though. One step at a time, I suppose.

i plan on a 12 minute gazelle (b/c it is so boring) and 30+ DDR. My problem is that the gazelle and playstation are both in the dark, dreary, lonely basement. it is difficult to force myself down there. easy excuse, i know, but there is no alternative for the placement of the TV and gazelle

Ollie - You rock. Show those planks who's boss! I can't believe I'm on day 7 of level 3. I'm almost done! Then what? I'll be so lost. Maybe I'll do another go round.

Katiecron - Welcome!

Ollie - If you love those pendulum lunges now, you'll adore the jumping lunges in level 3.

I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble with the plank exercises. But I notice it's getting easier already. Pushups are very hard on me too. I guess my arms are not very strong... but I can train them to be!

So close to being finished with Shred, that I can taste it. Only 2 more days. Then I'll take a small break from it and then do it again for 30 days. I feel like a masochist because it's so painful at times, but it feels so good.

thanks, robot. i had forgotten i asked. what a pal. what a pal. i remember i tried ot do one of those gazelle things at the gym and lacked the coordination.

elwing, i'll take planks any day over all these friggin lunges.

so when i do lunges, especially those damned pendulum lunges, this muscle that maybe i didn't know was there cause i never used it before, starts screaming. it's right under me arse and right above my thigh. sorta in the middle of the *** and thigh. does this happen to you all? what is that? and anyone know of something i can do to strengthen whatever it is?

I completed 30 Day Shred!

I'll probably start again in a week, but for now, I think I'll stick to some yoga or even a Turbo Jam video.

robot - you're my hero.

well, i've missed a couple days of the shred, buuuut i do think it was a tad bit silly of me to think i could do it during finals of my first semester of grad school. all i can do is the best i can do. i'm coming up for air from my papers and about to push play.

Ollie, I know you're focused on your school work, so don't fret if you miss a few days working out.

I didn't workout today. I suppose a day off shouldn't do me any harm.
