Tuesday's exercise--after 10 days!--was the 1 mile WATP video with weights and stretchie band. I exaggerated my movements and worked up a good sweat.

My goal is to exercise at least 25 days per month.

About to do the 2 mile WATP without weights.

ETA: I ended up doing a little over half of the 2 mile WATP video with weights.

Yesterday I took my pilates DVD to my babysitting job and did the 15 minute work out after the kiddies went to sleep.

Hmm... I just did the pilates "challenge". It was only 9 minutes long, and incorporated a stretchie band into some of the exercises. I'm going to do the 1 mile WATP video now.

Hmm. I did Denise Austin's Hit the Spot Pilates. I chose the 10 minute core and 10 minute hips segments. I think next time I'll do the intermediate abs segment and a different lower body segment.

I was hoping I'd feel the burn in my abs, but I don't. I did work up a sweat though.

Tuesday's exercise was the 15 minute pilates challenge on the Hit the Spot Pilates DVD. It's mat pilates done standing up.

HOLY CRAP.

That was a good workout. I can feel it in my glutes, quads, and hamstrings when I walk. The ab workout was decent, but they don't feel sore right now. :-/ I like that enduring soreness. I worked up a generous sweat, though.

Tomorrow I'll try the Pilates Abs Workout DVD or the bellydancing.

Thursday I did five minutes of the Bellydance Core Conditioning video. Seriously.

I'll do extra today to make up for it.

Today's exercise was the Pilates Abs Workout DVD by Ana Caban. I did the whole 20 minutes. Um, wow. I couldn't do all of the exercises.

My abs and the outer parts of my glutes are sore today. I love that.

I guess I'll do the bellydance video today. It's kind of tricky. I'm not very good at following quick dance/aerobics moves.

ETA: I did three segments of the video which took 28 minutes: the warm up, cardio belly blast, and core weights. The first segment was mostly stretches. The second was cardio. The third was very light strength training. How am I supposed to add this to My P.L.A.N.? :-/
