I found it pretty difficult to keep my Shred routine going after my shower weekend, so I took 7 days off (Mon-Fri of last week & Mon and Tues this week--plus the weekends, but I don't do the Shred on those days anyway).
I started it up again yesterday. Right now I'm on day 2 of two weeks (5 days) of the advanced version of Level 2.
It's difficult, but the only thing I have to stop in the middle of are those darn double jump ropes (Level 1 is single, Level 2 is double). I'm still amazed that something seemingly simple is actually pretty darn tough to do.
My sister has started doing the 100 pushups thing again. I'm tempted to start it up again now that my core muscles are up to snuff. When I tried it the first time, I kept pulling an ab muscle so I quit.
I also read this cute blog post from Elizabeth Anne Designs blog. I emailed it to Mr. P and he says with incredulity, "You want to do a half marathon?!" Well, no. Not a half marathon per se. I like the idea of it--a 5k or something is a little more attainable. It would be a great goal to reach together (although, he could probably run one right now without a problem) and it'd get me fit in time for the wedding (maybe?). The other thing I was thinking was maybe not running (the hills and roads--no shoulder--around here make for a difficult run), but biking would be a good option. He's been pretty good about riding his to work, but I haven't gotten on mine once all season. :oP Disappointing.
