Week 2--Day 10 and 11

I can hardly believe it's been a week and a half already! Time has really been flying throughout my days as I'm running back and forth between feeding babies, feeding myself, changing diapers, doing pull-ups, wiping faces and hands, and curling iron (or bands, whatever). I can't say I'll complain about that. The faster my day goes the better.  We are like a well-oiled machine now and running full speed ahead!

Yesterday consisted of the Arm and Shoulder work-out.  I actually really enjoy "lifting weights", it's always been my favorite form of working out.  Unfortunately, I am the cheapest person alive and buying weights is the last thing I feel like spending money on, at a dollar per pound, I gladly say, "pass".  So I'm dealing with the bands still and checking craigslist every now and then hoping to find a bitter ex-wife trying to sell her husbands $800 weight-set for like 10 bucks.  (I've heard something equally crazy involving a car though). If only. So I am forging on ahead, hoping it's enough resistance, but have a sinking feeling it's too easy for me. I enjoy having Dane around to critique my form and performance because I fear I'm not doing stuff right. Especially when I walk away from a work-out not being as sore as last week.  Which I seem to be encountering for some reason.  So I need to figure this out quickly, because if I'm taking the time to do this, well by God I'd better be doing it right!

I haven't really mentioned the ab ripper X workout before. Frankly, it sucks.  It's only 16 minutes and I'm supposed to do it every other day.  It's so depressing that at the end of an hour long work-out, I still have to do the ab ripper.  I find myself wanting to whine about how long it is, but this is why I prefer to do it in the morning, otherwise I'd dread it all day! But if you're not willing to put in the time, I guess you shouldn't expect a lot, right?

Round 2 of Yoga today.  Me vs. the mat.  Dane has decided to join in. Should be a good time  ;)
