Did my exercise today...

man... discipline is hard!

Today I pulled out my Denise Austin DVD. I chose the low impact work out and I'm glad I did cause man that was hard! And I just checked the wiki on her and she's 2 years older than me!! She's 52!! I am so shocked. You would not believe how young she looks!

This is her from last year:

Anyhow... the low impact exercises were challenging enough, so I think it'll be a while before I move through the other two levels.

I still can't believe she's 52. I liked the workout. She kept it moving along at a pretty good clip. We did weight lifting, muscle strengthening, ab workout and stretching exercises afterward. Even the stretching was a challenge!! Ah well, that's what I get for being sedentary for so many years.

I'm already feeling the reward of my work though. I carried 2 gallons of milk in one hand almost effortlessly the other day. There was a time when the medicine I was on had deteriorated my muscles so badly, I could barely carry one!


Gonna tune my guitar and practice some music for tomorrow.

Retouching FTW!
Good for you! Keep at it.
I am going to get superdooper fit this year so that I can ride with gay abandon and not hurt like hell the next day.

Roll on summertime!

Yay! I'm happy for you, too!
I take it you're referring to riding horses. I never learned.
I forget... Did you say you own a horse?

Man, I can't stand Denise Austin! I bought her Yoga DVD a few years back and was sickened by her perma-smile and overly peppiness. God, woman, it's Yoga not step aerobics! Oh, and with regard to her looking so young for her age...that's plastic surgery and Photoshop, my dear. But hey, if she's getting YOU in better shape, that's all that matters. (I'm just jealous because I can't carry 2 gallons of milk in one hand!!!).
