I am finally doing my Wii Fit exercises in the afternoon today. I have not had any breakfast or lunch today, so no surprise that I have lost 3.3lbs. My agility test today put my Wii age back up to 40.
Today's exercises and updates:
Yoga
- "Palm tree" - This was a new yoga exercise. I actually did this ok. This involved standing on my toes and stretching with my arms back.
- "Standing Knee" Once again, having balancing issues, but better than yesterday.
- "Tree" - This is as well a balancing issue, but improved since yesterday.
- "Half-moon" - as suggested by the Wii with doing in combination with the single leg twist. This to me is just good warm up exercise that should really be done at the beginning of the workout, but instead added it when suggested to.
Strength Training
- "Push-up and Side Plan" - finally was able to do 3 reps without cheating...very tough.
- "Torso Twists" - 6 reps, pretty simple, but definitely feeling a burn in the abs.
- "Single-leg twist" - very unstable using my left leg to balance on
- "Boxing" - This was a new thing, at first I couldn't get it down, kind of like the "Steps" aerobics in combination with using the Wii remote and knun-chuck. I repeated the boxing and got better.
- "Basic Run" - Today was the first time I did the "Island Lap" which I unlocked the day before yesterday. It took me 12 minutes to complete, broke a good sweat doing this.
- "Snowboard Slalom" - This was a new unlocked item as well, by turning th Wii board in a vertical position, it was much like the "Ski Slalom" just a different balancing act with the Wii board in the opposite position.
- "Tightrope walk" - New as well, only got as far as 18yds on the rope on my second attempt. You have to simulate walking forward in place while balancing on the virutal tight rope.
- "Ski Slalom" - Seems to be my favorite and I get better at it very time, I am now a professional on it (3/4 stars)
