My goals are: 4 days cardio, 2 days ST'ing every week starting 1/3

I can't worry about minutes right now since the new dvd I got is only 26 minutes and does both cardio and ST. It's a challenge to fit it in as I get used to working again.

January 2011:
1/3: 26 min cardio, ST

Just finished my yoga for today - I thought I didn't want to, but when I feel it's part of my nightly routine, I can stick with it. And I feel better now that I've done it.

Good night all!

My exercise goals for January are:

-Get up early and to the gym at least 3 weekdays each week at 45min/day
-Walk during work at least one day each week for approx 30 min
-Do situps/pushups on my excercise ball during one show I watch a week

Hi.

My new revised goal is to do a watp dvd everyday from january 4th to the 31st = 28 days.

So far I on track: 2 miles yesterday, 1 mile today. 2/28 done.

Minutes wise I am aiming for 310min of planned exercise this month. As of today I am at 55/310. This was my original goal for the month and my minimum goal.
