Joni - since I've started working out, I can barely stay awake past 9:30! I haven;t slept this good in years!

Joni- I am sore from doing Turbo kick over the weekend. Core commotion is lots of squats and lunges while doing upper body work with hand weights, all while keepeng your core engaged. It was an hour long and she pushed us the entire time- only about 2 minutes of stretching at the end.
I never made it to yoga last night, it was snowing and I just felt like curling up under a blanket.
I am back in the groove of working out because today is my day off from the gym and I have the urge to go. I get nervous that a day off will turn in to another and another and before you know it it has been a week. But I need to recover, I am so sore.

I'm such a spaz, I can't read on the treadmill! It would make it go so much faster, though.

Jan 17- 30 minutes at Curves
Today - 30 min treadmill or elliptical:tread: (planned)

I am going to clean out the garage so I can get at my heavybag I think I will try some boxing workouts with it.:boxing:

30 minutes on treadmill. Beginner video for Fluidity Bar. The good thing is that when I started the beginner video, it was a killer. Last night it wasn't so hard so I may move to intermediate next week.

Great job ladies! I need to try a boxing class at the gym some day.

45 minutes on treadmill - finally watched Grey's Anatomy from last Thursday. Great episode. I was sort of dragging (head cold just won't go away), but I did it!

Boot Camp - 5:15 AM to 6:15 AM
(really good workout today; we did something called the Indian Run; there are 5 girls jogging and we stay close together in line. The last person in the line has to sprint to the front of the line; when she gets to the front, the last person in line sprints to the front, and you keep going and going. We did a mile, but doing those mini sprints really kept the pace going strong and forced me to go at a much quicker pace).. After our 1 mile run it was lots of squats, push ups, jumping rope, jumping jacks, etc.
30 minute (2 mile) walk on treadmill at gym

I'm wiped! I downloaded one of the Cardio Coach workouts to my MP3 and did it on Saturday. At first I hated it, but by the end I really liked it. I never would have pushed myself as hard as that on my own.
