Ah, so nice to see more people jumping in!

I blogged today about how I noticed last night's double express class (two 45 minute classes) seemed easier yesterday and I wonder if it's because I had eaten more food this week and if perhaps I've felt sluggish before because I was pushing myself too hard on too few calories. It's something I'll keep observing. Makes me glad I log my food and exercise!

29 hrs in Jan and another 75 minutes yesterday... Need to get my butt off the couch for today's exercise!! Watching a hip-hop workout from beach body...I know!! I shud be doing it instead of watching !!!

Haha loseit, I so have that problem of watching rather than doing the videos sometimes! Bizarrely they always seem far worse when you watch them rather than do them!

Just 20 mins swimming for me today, it was far too cold to do any longer, think the council need to sort the heating out!

Hi Melissa, great going for 2 classes...awesome! I think you're on to something about the food. We do want to cut calories, but we need nourishment to exercise. I've been trying to follow my hunger, and I've been eating somewhat less than usual with much less 'junk'. I find that sometimes, if I'm not careful with eating good clean food, I get tired. I notice it after I've had a heavier food day and wake up the next morning feeling good.

So, back from Dance Sport Endurance. Think Zumba, but all the Ballroom dances, not just Latin dances. It was good for me because I can't take the bouncing, jumping of the Zumba classes because I have bladder control issues (thanks to huge babies). It was a light aerobioc workout day. Like 2 or 3 songs got my heart rate really up ther, but nothing like spinning or step aerobics does. But it was a good one to do a day after a more intense workout day.

Yoga tomorrow.

I'll have some catching up to do minutes-wise as the months progress, but today I'm grateful for any/all extra steps. It was just one of those days:)

Here's a bit more info on dance sport endurance if you are interested.

I think it is still mainly a DC area thing, but he's trying to grow it.

Did 30 minutes hill walking today.. but only did 3400 steps which is frustrating :(. But I did a fair bit of travelling today and forgot to wear it in the morning so that might have been part of it.

So 1.5 hours down, 18.5 hours to go :).

Loseit 02-03-2012 04:31 PM

32 hrs + 2 hrs today... I am not sure if i will be able to workout over the weekend!! Running or elliptical is usually tough to get to.. May be will do some abs or weight training... I only add my hrs from running or elliptical here.. So lets see..
Total 34 hrs.. Yay!

osaunt 02-03-2012 08:02 PM

WOW! Great job everyone!!!

30 min - C25K Week 1
40 min - walk @ UCD arboretum

11530 steps today ?!?

I've had a good day, but not THAT good. I had a 6 hour roundtrip commute and I think the drive added "steps" to my fit bit.

Still planning on doing a fitness DVD tonight so I'll check back in later...
