Last night I had an extra half hour to myself so I decided to check out Netflix for any instant streaming exercise videos that I might like. I found a bunch of "10 Minute" videos and added them all to my queue, figuring just about anyone can get through 10 minutes of exercise, even me!
Last night I tried 10 Minute Solution Target Toning with Cindy Whitmarsh and did the "Legs" segment ("Arms" are next on the same title) and then I did an additional 10 minutes of walking at 3mph on my treadmill immediately following. Ill be honest, I wasnt expecting much in the way of aftershocks from 10 minutes of toning and 10 minutes of walking but today I can honestly say that my thighs and butt can really feel that workout! Im rather surprised at how effective just a few minutes of fast paced toning can be.
It wasnt all easy in those 10 minutes. I learned that while socks & sneakers seem like a good idea, theyre really not. I should have done this barefoot on a sticky mat because my feet kept sliding inside my shoes and making it difficult to keep pace with the video. And its not as if I was wearing clown shoes, my sneakers are actually 1/2 size smaller than the girl at Lady Foot Locker suggested they should be based on my measurement... and I bought them that way because I know how I like my shoes to fit and that 1/2 size makes the difference between shoes staying on my feet and falling off my heels.
Anyway, Im glad for the burny feeling in my muscles today... it lets me know I actually accomplished something good for myself last night. I ate a little bit extra in protein to help compensate for the calorie burn (as was suggested by the staff at Medi-Weightloss) so Im not drained today. Im planning on trying the arms & more treadmill time tonight. Now I just have to find my 2 lb hand weights when I get home!
