Back in the Saddle Again

So I’m preparing to begin a new rotation tomorrow! I had intended to start today, but I spent much of the day at an aquarium with my kids and a friend and her kids, so it didn’t happen. I did do a lot of walking both in the aquarium and the surrounding neighborhood, so at least I wasn’t just lying around the house.

Here’s the plan for this week (tentative since I invariably end up changing things around, particularly the exact videos I do).

• Monday: Aquarium trip--just lots of walking
• Tuesday: Total Body Circuit & Core (Cathe’s Low Impact Circuit)
• Wednesday: Kickboxing (Tracey Staehle’s Cardio Sweatfest--kickboxing part + part of Sara Ivanhoe’s Basic Yoga for Dummies)
• Thursday: Step Aerobics + Lower Body (Kari Anderson’s Push + part of Cathe’s Gym Style Legs)
• Friday: Turned out to be a rest day--big headache
• Saturday: Step Aerobics (just a couple combos from Cathe’s Low Max + upper body premix from Kelly Coffey-Meyer’s NYC: A New You Coming)
• Sunday: Pilates/Yoga (Suzanne Deason’s Quick Start Yoga for Weight Loss)

This is all intended to be low impact since I’m nursing my ankle back to full use. Some of these workouts are not necessarily designed to be low impact, in which case I will modify as needed. I’ve updated my workout rotation document (found on the main page of the blog) to include my latest low impact rotation (it’s 4 weeks long).

Edited to add: I’ve put links on the workout titles to where you can purchase them from my favorite website for purchasing fitness DVDs--www.advancedworkouts.com--just in case you see a workout you don’t own that interests you. However, Advanced Workouts doesn’t carry the Basic Yoga for Dummies, so that is a link to Amazon. Oh, and I’m not getting any advertising money for doing this, just doing it because I like making random links and I like Jen at AW.
