Guest guest Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 This morning I decided to bring my rebounder upstairs to where the TV is and just bounce for 20 minutes while I watched Good Morning America. I was going to do my Kathy step video but decided I still wasn't feeling 100% and didn't want to push myself that hard. Well, I think I worked about as hard on the rebounder! I jogged, did jumping jacks, bounced and moved my arms in various patterns, etc. By the time I got done I was tired, breathing hard and felt like I'd really worked hard! The only problem is that it was boring. I kept looking at my timer to see when I'd be done. Sometimes I feel that way with workout tapes but it is mostly because the work is hard and I want to know I'm almost done. This was both for that reason and boredom. Don't know how often I'll do that free form but it was good to try it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been hearing a lot about the cardio coach workouts. So how do they keep you from being bored? I am clueless on them. Is it a person that talks to you through head phones?

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I think that is what stops me from seriously looking at treadmills too. Thanks for the reminder and the encouragement !

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Good for you ; another workout! I agree that you probably worked just as hard or even harder on your rebounder than you would have with the Kathy Step video.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Thanks Kerry! Tomorrow morning my daughter's kindergarten class is doing a Christmas tea, which includes a performance with handbells! It is not until 10 and the kids are on the bus by 8:10 so I'm hoping to sneak in another workout between the two! Will let you know what happens! Re: Today's workout Good for you ; another workout!

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 That's a good idea, a music video channel. I know when some music came on (for a commercial of all things!) I was much more naturally enthusiastic in my movements! Thanks Carolyn!

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Thanks, Darcy! I was pretty slow to start, but it turned out to be a good workouot (duh!). I'll remember this late night workout next time I screw around all day without getting it done! Sara > > > > > Sara (who finished her workout at 10:15pm! ugh!

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hi ! Thanks to you, too! I'd call it more like " procrastination " vs. dedication, lol. And guilt, heh. And let's not get me started on the lame excuses that had me finishing yesterday's workout at nearly 11:30 pm! Next week will go better! Sara > > > > I got out of work early today so that meant I had more time at home which also meant, I could do a longer workout but I didn't have it planned too far until I got into it.
