Okay, so it's 4.53am and I just finished the first video "Core Synergistics." I seriously need to get a bigger workout area! Trying to do all these things (Especially lunges or full body stretches) in a tiny little bedroom is pretty ridiculous lol. Anyway, I started out okay. Everything was good, started to get a little tired by the 25-minute mark, but it wasn't so bad. Then we had to do push-up style exercises. And omg, I lost it. Push ups are my very worst type of exercise. I have pretty much no upper body strength. If lifting more than 5 lbs is a challenge for me, how the heck am I supposed to support a 160 lb body? Aaah!
I tried my best. I couldn't do all the reps that were showed, but I did enough to feel a definite workout, so I'm not totally let down about that part. All in all, this video was harsh for an exercise beginner like me, but I made it through the whole hour. I'm feeling pretty sore all over now (Especially the muscles in my upper back), but that's not so bad. At least I know it's working! However, my left knee started to hurt around 40 minutes in. I have bad knees, so I'm going to be paying close attention to this. I'm hoping this is just typical wear and tear that will get stronger over time 'cause I really don't want a bad knee messing up my workout schedule. :p
Well, 5am now. Oh I forgot. Happy Halloween! Today I'm painting my face up as a white tiger and taking my daughter (who is a Bengal tiger) out trick or treating. Time to sleep and let my body rest. See you tomorrow. :)
