I've started doing regular exercise, every day in the last two weeks I've done at least 30 minutes on the wii fit with at least 20 of them doing a good amount of aerobic exercise. And despite the happy downward trend the first week. The second has been nowhere near as successful as I thought it would be.
I'm not sure where I'm going wrong, I'm not eating badly and the exercise level has gone from nowhere to averaging 40 minutes. It is most disappointing as far as I'm concerned.
And it's really where I would normally give up only I'm not going to this time. I need to increase my activity levels I really do and I'm willing to do that because essentially I need to get a fitness level that's going to allow me to do more than I'm able to right now.
Tonight, for example I did the yoga poses and then some marching, followed by the boxing as a warm up. I then had a go at free step for the main aerobic activity and I managed to keep it up for a full thirty minutes. I am really pleased that I was able to do this without collapsing or getting the shakes. I did get nice and warm and the pulse rate was working hard but there wasn't any stage where I thought I was working outside my limits.
I'm going to continue using the free step in 30 minute bursts as an aerobic dooberry but I'm gonna have to find ways to make it a better experience for me.
One problem is that I feel kind of guilty about hogging the tv for an hour in the evening to do this but until I'm fit enough to go to the gym without the possibility of passing out on the cross trainer I'm need to work out in our tiny lounge.
I hope that I start to see the benefit of this soon, I need a reason to keep going beyond sheer bloody mindedness.
