Tonight I was feeling some soreness from my workout yesterday, so I decided to just run through my little made-up regimen of chest lifts and leg extensions from last night. (I was also feeling too lazy to search for more videos to follow. C'est la vie) I made it through 3 repetitions of the 20 chest lifts and 10 leg extensions, but my abs really were starting to hate on me, and I figured that if I wanted to be able to run around with the little kiddies at my work again tomorrow, I'd best just leave it at that, so I finished with a minute plank (and actually made it to a full minute tonight! I propped my heels against a trunk so they wouldn't slip as easily, that helped) and then stretched out with a yoga pose called the Cobra to stretch out my tense abdominal muscles. I might take a day off from the ab work tomorrow and focus on a different muscle group instead, maybe try some more leg work or see if I can find my Pilates workout band to do some arm work. I could swear I saw it when I was moving house a year ago...
To continue with my healthy habitting, I downloaded a free app on my iPod touch called Smidge that helps you train yourself into healthy habits by giving you daily reminders on things like drinking more water, eating more fruits and veggies, and etc. I'm just using the water segment to start, because we're heading into winter, when I tend to get SUPER dehydrated and dried out. I'd like to start monitoring my water intake to make sure I'm getting the recommended daily intake, and then increase my intake during the winter so that I don't dry out like a raisin. It's made by Pfizer, so y'know... if it wasn't free I probably wouldn't buy it. Don't need to support the Viagra dudes, they get plenty of money.
A dirty-minded man who shall remain nameless sent me his recommended workout video today after he saw my blog post from yesterday. I like it, but I shan't be using it. You'll see why if you watch it for yourself. (NSFW)
