High pain day. Had zero energy for a cardio. Out of town, too.
Tonight I had a decision to make: bitch and moan about the pain, or work out. My doctors have both told me working out is not a problem when I'm having pain (easy for them to say!) and it's safe. I did not have the energy to do a walking workout for a half hour, but a slower-paced strenght? You bet.
The FIRM: Better Body and Buns
I didn't do the ab work, so my workout was only about a half hour long. I used light weights, too. BUT I did it.

Slacked on working out today! Was going to do a tortoise from The FIRM, but didn't. :-(
Leslie Sansone: some 4-mile DVD
Leslie Sansone: some 3-mile DVD
lol! Love my titles? I ordered a couple from Mary at Total Fitness DVDs during her last sale. I had always found Leslie very difficult to take. In fact, I couldn't stand her.
Well, after doing them a few times, I've come to appreciate her more. I actually kind of like her. Who would have ever guessed that? So I'm hoping Mary puts more up for her Thanksgiving sale because I'm buying more for diversity.
I did lots of housework today which helped my step count. I've learned to be very inefficient with my work so that I get a higher step count! More steps = more calories burned.
Step count today: 27,070

Nothing today. I woke up with my legs screaming at me. DH lectured me on my need to get over perfectionism and listen to my body. I listened, took a nap, took some Motrin and rested.
Step count: 10,143
That's very low for me

A Fresh Start
I used to have an exercise blog. I got bored with it, figured who cares what I do for exercise, then deleted it. I've debated back and forth whether or not that was a good idea.
I've decided to give it a go again. Fresh start, new blog. bbhfirmbeliever.blogspot.com the bbh stands for Benson, Benson and Henrickson. Specifically, the late Anna Benson, her sister Cynthia, and her ex-husband Mark Henrickson. They were The FIRM founders. They made the workouts that are my favorites.
So once again, I will chronicle what I do for workouts. I'm doing this for me, my benefit only, but if you want to follow along, you're more than welcome.
