Day 2 Shreddin it up!

I need to point out that I actually started the Shred yesterday, April 27th, 2009. I entered the post late on my side of the country, but the system entered it as today, April 28th.

Moving on. I woke up soooo sore in my upper body and tush. It makes me wish I'd never stopped working out just to avoid the severity of soreness. There's good news though.

As sore as I was, it didn't last. Once I started working out, it started to feel like a nice stretch. I couldn't tell that I'd ever been sore to begin with. The Butt Kicks felt alot easier today than yesterday. I still don't like them though. I've always preferred strength training over cardio. I hate cardio. I think I have a hard time with Butt Kicks cause of my thighs, that should change soon enough. The side lunges with the dumbbell raise kinda sucks. I had to use soup cans until my arms can build up the strength. That or maybe I'll go out and buy some lighter dumbbells. I have 5 lb. weights.

After my workout, I didn't feel as sluggish and exhausted as yesterday. I generally began tired because I was kept up by the wind blowing everything around last night. That and my 5 month old wanted to eat a few times.

I began this blog to use as a motivation and inspiration tool. I need so accountability and why not it be to people who are going to read this. I also began it because when I was browsing the web, I saw that people who were blogging weren't doing the program as instructed but took more days off so that it should've been called the 3 week challenge. It did get irritating to follow their blog and see that their results were that of the same workouts but not the correct instructions. Somwe took time off just cause they weren't motivated enough to do it right, they just didn't want to some days. So here I am, pushing myself through this and I'm going to do it right!!
