Yesterday I got in a 25 minute Carribean Workout from FitTV. I erased it after I was done as the moves were much too complicated for me but I kept moving and felt like I got a good workout despite it not being exactly what they were doing. I've got a number of other FitTV programs on the Tivo so I'll try another one of them today. I also threw in 15 minutes on my bike. AND, does shoveling snow count as cardio?! :)

+++POSITIVE THOUGHTS+++!!!

    yesterday was boot camp again... much easier this week. (60 minutes)
    and my walk (about an hour)

    Niccole, I can't believe your snow, and I'm sure shoveling counts as weight training at least!

    I live in Italy now, but am from Michigan, so I KNOW that shoveling snow counts as cardio!!

    For every hour of shoveling / and if you weigh:

    130 lbs
    you would burn
    354 calories

    155 lbs
    you would burn
    422 calories

    190 lbs
    you would burn
    518

    I sure don't miss that activity! Good Luck.

    i did 30 min level 2 strength training of 5 circuits and 80 min cardio on the treadmill running program. i can remember some exercise classes that i have done that i felt like a total retard because the moves were awkward but i stuck with it until i got the moves down and then decided whether i liked it or not. i think your body remembers even when your brain doesn't think it does. great going!

    I have to laugh or I might go coocoo...

    Just got off of my recumbent bike. I rode for 47 minutes and burned 300+ calories (I stopped when my bike said 300 but MFP said 343 cals. I'm going with MFP's!)

    Have a nice evening everyone...
