Finished up another session

Today's session was 33 minutes. I upped the push up + side plank exercise to 20 reps, and that was tough. I was getting accustomed to doing 10, so it was by far the most strenuous exercise I've done since I first started. I did a variety of strength training exercises, then finished up with the 11 minute run.

I figured out how to input other exercises I do outside of the Wii Fit into the exercise log, but I'm still not sure how to get it to count toward my "Wii Fit credits" which basically just unlocks exercises. I'll play around with it next time I do something on my elliptical and hopefully figure it out. As of now, I've gotten all but 3 of the yoga poses unlocked (out of 15) and all but 1 one of the strength training exercises unlocked.

Days 3 and 4 - steady improvement

Well I put in about 30 and 40 minutes respectively the past two days on the Wii Fit, so I met my mini-goal of using the thing 4 times in my first week. I'm getting close to having all of the activities unlocked, and my scores keep on improving -- especially on the exercises that measure balance. I'm able to stand on one leg for the entire duration of the Yoga "Tree" pose, which is so much better than when I started, when I was falling off the balance board.

I'm excited for my second body test tomorrow. My close feel looser (not by a whole lot.. but still noticable). I'm going to have a camera on Monday by next Wednesday I'll have a video blog up.

Overall, for my first week, I'm pretty satisfied. I'm definitely not bored with the Wii Fit, in fact, I feel quite the opposite. I look forward to starting my routine and seeing my scores gradually improve.

I really like the rhythm boxing that I unlocked last night. It's basically a Tae-Bo rip off, but it's fun.
