I was lazy yesterday and took the day off of exercise, so I actually expected my weight to go up a bit tonight. I was a bit surprised that it went down. 0.4lbs isn’t exactly a ton of weight, but I suppose it’s still progress. I pushed myself harder on the run, covering a full mile in my first 10 minutes. I find that Wii Fit makes for a great warm-up before my runs. I’ve stopped using the balance games entirely, and I only do the aerobics exercises when I need a change of pace. I usually start with some yoga poses for a good stretch, and then move on to the strength training. The jackknife is by far my favorite exercise because I can feel it working more than the others. I’ve also never been good at sit-ups, so the jackknife is a good alternative.
