  • carvedmarmalade: I have a Wii, too, but the only fitness games I've tried are the Wii Fit Plus (with the balance board, so it's expensive) and Walk It Out. Walk It Out is fun! Just Dance 2 is on my list for someday. I didn't know there was a Zumba. I was thinking of trying a boxing game with it next.

  • Comment for todays workout:
    Not sure if I had more energy or something today, but I did SO much better in the workout! Lasted longer with every segment and I wasn't as tired in the end. At first I was wondering if I wasn't pushing as hard, but I know I definitely was, and more. Im super excited

    xXLosingItXx - I'm glad you're feeling so terrific!! I was feeling high energy tonight too, for some reason. I kept upping the incline because I was feeling so good, and after my cool down I realized I was the last one in the fitness room at the hotel... and so I turned the treadmill back on and RAN for a minute. I don't run. The treadmills here at the hotel must be easier or something... although my back is telling me that I definitely got a workout tonight.
