Exercise
As I've said before, I've been exercising several times daily, walking during the day and doing tapes at night. I've been doing strength training videos at night, but I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to do them every day. I was using two strength videos, both by Leslie Sansone. One does a walking warmup then has segments for upper body (hand weights), lower body (ankle weights), and abs. The other alternates cardio with mainly upper body exercises using hand weights. I prefer the first video and did it probably 5 nights a week. I think I overdid it, though, because I began to develop an ache in the muscles on the side of my knees that run up to the thighs, I think they're part of my hamstrings. So I'm going to take it easy on the lower body workouts.I just got a new trio of her videos called Shortcuts. Each focuses on a different area, upper, lower, and abs, for 30 minutes. On Thursday, I did the upper body and then the abs. Holy shit, the abs kicked my ass. That's where I need it the most, though, so I'm glad it was tough.
So here's my workout schedule. Additionally, during the week, I will continue walking my 2-4 miles a day. All these videos are by Leslie Sansone.
