WOW! Way to go!!!

What an awesome start everyone! The enthusiasm is great and makes me want to do my best. I've managed to get 3 days in already for this competition so I've got 1 more to go! Hurray!!!

• 6/1 - Wii EA Sports Active: 30 minutes


• 6/2 - Wii EA Sports Active: 30 minutes


• 6/3 - Eliptical: 50 minutes

My goal is to get a workout in at the gym in the morning and do the Wii in the afternoons. The Wii challenge goes two days, then one day off and man! I need that one day off. My thighs have been so sore from all the lunging, it's been hard to sit down and get back up again! LOL.

BTW, The EA Sports Active game does not require the Wii Fit Balance Board, just the main Wii console and controllers. So far, I've only used it to play tennis. I hear Nintendo is launching the Wii Fit Plus this fall so if this is in your future, you might want to consider that.

And the resistance band? Well, they came undone from the fabric handles during a shoulder raise exercise freaking out my dog with each loud thwap! I decided to forgo the handles and just wrap the ends around my hand. I did try a regular resistance rope, but the handles were way too big to hold along with the Wii controllers.
