21 Day Exercise TreaTEA
Never again will I say what I’ll do BEFORE I actually do it. I didn’t do anything yesterday….I’m gonna do an extra day as well.

How could it be rougher than it looks? ;-p It looks soooo tough. Holey molly! I would be lying dead on the floor. Good for you!
I don’t know all these exercises… what is a superman? I’m pretty sure it’s not actual flying. :)
Don’t mind me – it’s just my being insecure again. I’m supposed to be athletic because I’d been playing tennis nearly all the way through college, but I have poor stamina. Other floor routines I look at (they’re around the Internet) usually seem incredibly hard because 1) the list of exercises is longer 2) each exercise seems to have so many more reps than I could do. I imagine collapsing to the ground in muscle fatigue if I tried them.
Supermans are good for the lower back! Lie face down on the floor, lift your arms and legs, hold, and pretend you’re flying like Superman :3
After doing practically nothing yesterday, I have completed 128% of my goal. Yeah! I spent about 20 minutes doing floor exercises. Now I only have to resist any yummy food.
Forgot to post about Day 8 yesterday. I went to the gym and changed my routine a bit. Now I do 15 minutes with 8 power resistant on the elliptical, and because I feel that cardio and doing supermans and planks are enough for my abs, I’m not doing ab work and I switched it with leg lifts for inner thighs.
Day 9 My usual floor routine. I’ve noticed I’m getting better in general.
Day 10 I walked 20 minutes morning and then walked another 20 minutes early in the evening.
Day 11 More walking…..I went to a picturesque town with a friend.
Day 12 Hiking/birding for 2 hours this morning.
Due to being away for a program and being impossibly busy, I’m going to have to restart my 21 days, starting with TODAY. Woo, wish me luck!
I’ve defeated the purpose of the “21 Days” thing again….I took another day of yesterday. I was pooped from walking and hiking during the week and am not used to that much activity.
I went walking/birding for 3 hours this morning. Weeeeeeeee.
Ok guys, call me a cheater if you want but since I’m restarting my 21 days I’m thinking this time around it may be good to plan for a rest day every 7th day. Gotta be done.
You might be right. I always have trouble exercising on Sundays. Somehow I’m either not motivated or busy with other stuff.
You can join the Beachbody group and do the latest exercise DVD which is PIYO. I started a few days ago. Lots of encouragement when you become part of a private group and get a coach.
Today I did 30 minutes of weight training and crunches during Master Chef. Surprisingly my heart rate was up and I was sweating even though technically I wasn’t doing any cardio!
