I am excited. I've been committed to my exercise plan for a full week and even though life threw me some curves I was able to roll with it, change my plan and still get my exercise in. To me that's actually a huge accomplishment since sometimes it's so easy to use 'the plans have changed' as an excuse to not exercise. But I conquered all challenges this week :))).
On Friday, I had planned on doing cardio at the gym but forgot my shoes -- came home and did an exercise DVD instead.
On Sunday I had to go into Hilo and thought I'd hit the gym instead of sitting on the coach.
On Tuesday had plans for my first Zumba class but it was canceled -- did a workout on the elliptical machine instead.
On Wednesday, I had a client cancel and reschedule for today at the same time as my yoga class. So I switched yoga to Wednesday and will do a cardio workout later today.
Here's why I was able to deal with the changes each day offered:
- I had a Plan B for exercise at home. I even had a choice, a DVD that I hadn't tried before, Weight Watchers Punch or my Walk Away the Pounds with Leslie Sansone DVD that I enjoy.
- I had my exercise bag in the car which I had re-packed and re-checked after forgetting my shoes the day before.
- I left my yoga mat in the car.
My plan for this next week -- make sure I have my bag packed for all options and make exercise my number one priority. I know that being active helps me accomplish more throughout my day and I'm committed to doing it for another week.
