Day Two - 30 Day Challenge

My legs have officially formed a mutiny. They are refusing to work properly. I feel like a marionette. I'm not entirely convinced that they won't just buckle under me while walking.

Today consisted of walk/runs, kick backs and knee lifts, side squats with bend overs, alternating lunges, arm curls, shoulder presses and some tennis (which I apparently have horrible hand-eye coordination.) Thankfully NO inline skating!

Day One - EA Sports Active

So I took the plunge a few days ago and bought the EA Sport Active for the Wii. I need to reign in this upward spiral of weight gain I've been on for, oh, basically forever.

I started the 30 Day Challenge today. I'm officially the most out of shape person alive. I set my course on Easy and I'm pretty sure the game was trying to kill me. I had a few not so choice words for my trainer when we did Inline skating FOR THE 2ND TIME.

Inline skating for those without the game consists of you squatting down, then jumping from that position, only to immediately return to the squat. Repeat 9 times! Yes 9.

The rest of the workout consisted of some walking/running, some squats, arm curls and side squats.

By the end I was huffing and puffing and barely made it up the stairs to the shower.

Can't wait for tomorrow. (ya, right!)
