As soon as I walked out the door yesterday, it started
raining--HARD. The weather front had moved in. So what’s a girl to do when she
can’t have her morning walkies?
She just dances . . .
Just Dance 4, that is, more accurately, Just Sweat.
My kidlet wanted this Wii game after she spent the night at
a friend’s house and they played it for hours. On the non-swimming weekends,
she’ll get up and start playing. I can’t complain too much, since she’s getting
some exercise.
So once I tweaked the avatar my daughter made for me, I
scrolled through the just sweat lists. My only complaint about this game is
that the Just Sweat had times of 10-, 45-, 60-minute segments. What happened to
30 minutes? Or even 20 minutes?
I might not be the crispest cookie in the box, but I did
know enough to realize doing the 45 or 60 minutes would be a bad thing. I might walk every day, but
that doesn’t mean the rest of my muscles are ready for the big time.
In the end, I danced to a variety of music in 10 minute
aerobics intervals--five of them-salsa, punk, 80’s, cardio rock, and another
one I can’t remember.
Erm, yes, I’m sore.
Though I’m a klutz much of the time, my old aerobics
training came in handy as I was getting some of the moves down. If I couldn’t
coordinate my feet, then I just kept them moving while I concentrated on the
arm movements. Many times I was slightly behind the moves, so I didn’t score as
well as I could have.
But I did score in the way that counted--I exercised for an
hour and had fun on a rainy day.
What do you do on yucky days?
Later, Peeps!
