Keeping honest

I'm going to note the days I exercise on LJ. 1. Nothing motivates like shame, and 2. Tags-tracking is helpful.

So, this morning: 45 minutes. A combination of calisthenics, Sun Salutes, and Pilates. I was trying to do some Hindu Squats, but I don't know if I'm doing them right. Would like someone ([livejournal.com profile] adammaker?) who knows how to do these properly to please show me sometime. Incorporated much stretching during the workout (without letting my heart-rate slow too much) as well as serious stretching afterwards. On the walk up to campus, I did glute squeezes the entire way up the hill.

Hooray for a Weekend of Fabulousness! Friday night birthday party for [livejournal.com profile] zerself, some wonderful time spent lazing about with [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick, and some things around the house (grudgingly) accomplished.

One of the accomplishments was the Introduction of Kitties, which went surprisingly well. There will be a photo of that soon.

The video loop is exactly what I needed. Thanks! I was pretty close. The biggest mistake I had was my butt wasn't so close to my ankles on the bottom-most part. I was farther forward. And I had the arms kind of wrong. Knee and foot placement was fine, though. I'm glad to know my heels are supposed to come off the floor.

You hadn't sent me that second link before, no. Thank you! Both are bookmarked.
