Honestly, where have I been? This is the greatest invention ever! I've been getting up before work to do a workout video for a couple months now and starting to get bored with the same old thing. Then yesterday someone at work mentioned excercise TV and low and behold, it's been there on my tv all along! This morning I did the Biggest Loswer Cardio Max--a pretty good little workout and a nice change of pace. I LOVE Bob in this video. He cracks me up.

I have been using the 30 day shred and love this dvd. I feel like it's a good workout and it only takes 20 minutes. That said, I like a little variety in life, so I borrowed a few workout videos from a friend.

This morning I did Core Ryhthms for the first time. Wow. First, I must say this video taught me that I am not Latin, nor do I move like I am. I felt (and I'm sure looked) pretty silly. But it was fun. I was moving the whole time an… Continue
