I knew it would be a challenge when I had to do 732 downward dogs...
& then on Saturday, my disk messed up. Wouldn't work in anything.
So Saturday - I talked about this in my vlog - I did the Nike Kinect - which I REALLY REALLY like. It get my heart pumping - it tones me up in strength training.
Sunday, tried the PiYo disc again... nothing... nada...
Monday... same...
Really?
So Tuesday, I contact Beachbody & they were super awesome. Said they would send me out another set, no cost to me... how nice is that?
But Wednesday, it called for a workout that was on another disc. That one worked. SUCCESS - finally. Now, I'd still been working with the Nike Kinect & I thought, OK, let's see if I can jump back into PiYo...
... when within 5 minutes, they were having you do these weird side planks.
I can do them on my left arm. Having to hold ALL my body weight, on the side, on my bad shoulder. Nope, Can't do it. & definitely can't do these bends & rolls & contortion moves on one broken arm....
I just screamed "SCREW IT" & popped it out & went back to a sweat fest on my Nike Kinect...
 |
so now, I'm wondering if I'm even going to go back to PiYo...
I feel bad about it. I mean, its not cheap to buy, but I just don't know if this is what my body is calling for right now.
Yes, I can adapt - I have been so far when the disks were working.
Maybe I'll give tonight another try...
though I'm looking forward to my Nike Kinect workouts now. I like that it holds your personal best & lets you know when you pass it.
The down side of Nike Kinect - it doesn't sense right sometimes.
I was supposed to be doing lunges - people, please - I know how to do lunges. & it wouldn't register. It kept saying, put your hands on your hips. My freaking HANDS ARE ON MY HIPS!!!.... "Please put your hands on your hips"
Confession - I may or may not have given the Kinect a good clear view of my hands... specifically a hand motion & THEN put them back on my hips...
 |
| What hand motion did you think I was talking about? ... you'd be right... it wasn't this one... |
.... to hear, "Put your hands on your hips"
So what called for 15 lunges, because it didn't see me doing them, I did like 45 on one leg.
At least with Nike Kinect, its not working my shoulders solely & painfully... & I'll have amazing legs doing 129 lunges on each leg....
