Super quick little update here today. I finished day four and am still feeling awesome, not sore, arms or legs don’t hurt… Weird… Haven’t noticed any other changes besides the increase in my endurance though. That and I can now do real push-ups, which I wasn’t able to do for about 14 odd years or so. I’m kind of dreading level 2 though, I’ve skipped through and it looks a lot harder, which is exactly the point though.
Well, I would love to write a whole essay, but I have Sims 2 open and I’m building a house there. Haven’t played it properly in months and I missed it so much!
I will do day 5 tomorrow, I don’t see much point in taking two days off right now.
Bye now. x

Now, I know that I took a bit of a break from doing the circuit, but I was feeling a little crappy for the past couple days. Nothing serious, just felt like a cold. But since I’m all better now, I couldn’t wait to do the whole workout today again. No really, I couldn’t wait to do it.
Cardio is getting to be strangely easy for me, I used to absolutely hate every single time I had to do anything cardio related, but now I didn’t even have to catch my breath. I did do cardio on the days that I didn’t do the 30DS, so I guess I’m finally getting used to moving my ass around. And I feel awesome right now, after finishing the circuit, I actually feel like going for a freaking jog, I sh!t you not. And I HATE running so much! And I would go, if the mud and sludge wasn’t knee deep outside right now.
So, overall, I feel awesome!
Til’ tomorrow!

This morning when I woke up, I realized that I can barely move my arms. Well, I could move them, but it hurt sooo bad, it felt worse than my junior high gym classes. But, I pulled through and did the second day as well. Now I can move my arms just fine, it’s my legs that hurt like hell, lol!
The first circuit didn’t kill me as much as it did yesterday and I wasn’t feeling like roadkill after the workout either. I wonder if I should just do day 3 tomorrow, or take a break, since I read on the MyFitnessPal forums that Jillian said that one should do two days of the workout, then do one day of cardio and take a one day break on one of her podcasts. I guess it all depends what kind of cardio I find for tomorrow, I don’t want to just jog, it doesn’t feel very effective to me. I did a 10 minute jog a couple hours ago and I’m not really feeling it. I’ve always hated running with a fiery passion though. Hate it.
So overall, the circuit training was fun, I can feel my muscles a whole lot more for sure and they HURT. I’ll probably try to hunt down some ideas for a good cardio by tomorrow so I wouldn’t be pushing my body over the top though. Not sure how I would feel about not doing anything for the rest day, it would feel a little awkward for me…
But.. I guess I’ll see that day after tomorrow.
Buh-bye for now.

Yup, today I started the 30DS workout program by The Biggest Loser’s Jillian. I always loved her methods on the show, even though she was quite the bitch, she was my favorite trainer. And since I’m looking like a mad land whale lately I decided to give her DVDs a shot.
Today was Level 1, Day 1, aka. L1D1, at first I though “okay, 20 minutes doesn’t sound so bad, let’s see what it’s all about..” And in the middle of the first circuit I almost felt like dying a little. I am definitely really out of shape. But by the end of the video I had gotten used to most of the exercises and it didn’t feel half as bad anymore. I’m really waiting forward to tomorrow’s workout. I’m definitely feeling my shoulders, arms and legs right now. But hey, if it hurts – it works, right?
I’ll be posting updates here about my particular workout for the day, after I’m done with it. I wonder just how much of a difference a 30-day long workout plan will make.
I guess I’ll find out in 29 days.
Cya! x
