Exercise Ball

Hubby got me an exercise ball for Christmas.  Today was the first time I tried to do the video.  There are two on the DVD, a "regular", 40 minute workout and an "express", 20 minute workout.  Since I have to go to work at 10:30, I opted for the express one.  All I can say is "oh wow".  I knew I was out of shape, and my knees aren't what they used to be, but even the modified version was a bit much.  I'm not nearly as flexible as the instructor, so some of the moves/exercises are going to take some practice.  So, now that I've finally caught my breath, I can say that I now have a viable option to going to the gym.  It will be easier, once daughter #2 gets her stuff out of the living room, but I will be able to get through the entire express workout and not feel like I got hit by a mack truck!

So, now it's off to shower and get ready to go to work.  At least it's a beautiful sunny day today!  Storm coming tonight.  Will it be snow or rain?  We'll see tomorrow.
