Let me introduce you...

...to my new best friend: The Wii EA Sports Active Personal Trainer. I call her Megan. Best thing I have bought in a long time!
I wasn't sure what to expect from her, but she is an honest to goodness personal trainer! There are a ton of different exercises that work all parts of your body. It keeps my keister off the couch and definitely beats working out next to all the other sweaters at the gym!!
The more time I clock exercising, the more exercises that are offered. So far the punching bag is my favorite. I started the 30 Day Challenge last week and am excited to see where it goes!

Hula Hoopin' Fool


Last night I was putting in some serious work with the Wii Fit. Towards the end I was spending a lot of time on the hula hoop exercise. I was really killing it...until I wasn't. Apparently hula-ing the hoop is too intense for my poor old back...it is killing me!!! My regimen of ice packs and icy hot is just not cutting it. Right about now I am really regretting breaking up with my Chiropractor. I may have to grovel my way back there if this doesn't clear up soon. :) I sure wish my Dad, who happens to be my favorite Chiropractor, made house calls!
In my defense, my back was still a bit skiwampus (sp?) from my last car accident, but I honestly thought that I could handle the hoop. I better stick to the yoga exercises for awhile! Man, I feel old!!

We got a Wii

Friday night Rob not only came home with dinner, but also a Wii and Wii Fit. What a great surprise!! We have talked about how fun it would be to have one, but never really got around to looking at them. Something must have gotten into him on Friday night, and boy am I glad it did!!
We played it all night long...Rob actually played it into the morning. I'm an old lady, I can't stay up that late anymore. The Wii fit is pretty fun too. They have a hula hoop exercise that is so funny to watch. I was laughing as Rob was doing it, but then I pictured what I would look like doing it...even funnier. I decided it best that I wait until I was alone to try it. Yep, I was right, I felt silly and definitely looked it. It is still a really fun exercise though.
