Day 11 - So That's How You Do a Crunch

I had a GREAT exercise day today.  I got up and did my Slim in 6 work out, first thing.  Then I went kayaking for two hours.  Then, late in the afternoon, I went biking for about 45 minutes.  Normally on Tuesday, I would have gone to Weight Watchers.  But today, because of the kayaking, I couldn't go.  So I'm going tomorrow.  Maybe with all of today's exercise, my visit to the scale will be a good one.

Now that I'm really thinking about it, I was a little sluggish during my Slim in 6 work out.  I seemed to be one beat behind Debbie.  I also discovered that I was performing my alternating oblique crunches incorrectly.  It's tough to keep an eye on the TV while you're lying on the floor.  I was lifting both shoulders off the floor while twisting when I should only be lifting one.  But once I realized my mistake, it made a big difference in the crunch.

When you read all the reviews of SI6, the only real complaint seems to be that people get bored with the videos,  I only have four days of work outs left using Start It Up, and I'm not bored at all.   Then I move on to Ramp It Up for 2 weeks.  If I'm having trouble keeping up now, what do you think is going to happen when I "Ramp it up"?  I guess I'll find out on Monday.

Tomorrow I go to Weight Watchers.  I'm hoping to be down from last week, but after yesterday's weigh in on my scale, I'm not so sure.  I'll let you know tomorrow.
