Jan 2012 Exercise Challenge

Thanks Hun xx

Combat is a martial arts based aerbics... So punches kicks to fast upbeat music... Great routines and fantastic all round really - I loves me a bit of combat x
 
cheers hun - not seen it up here, my gym doesnt offer it and because I have to swim elsewhere, cant often afford any extra classes :)

sounds good - if i can find a class up here I might have a pop along and try it out - just found a kettlebell class at the centre I swim at which is on my 2012 to do list :D x
 
40 mins badminton and 40 mins gym work yesterday - oooh and can I feel it today! Going to attempt the V Plate at gym tomorrow, now that will not be a pretty sight! :eek:

I seriously need to join the gym, I lose all motivation exercising when I do it at home.

only problem is I can only go during the day but then I have my 18 month old and I can't afford to go to the gym and pay for ad-hoc childcare too!

The gym might just work a treat -or not! With the gym once you get there the environment can inspire you -plus there's not really much else to do at a gym but workout! But then you have to find the time and pay the fee- not to mention the childcare arrangements needed.
With a home workout you need to be more motivated and there are so many chores and other things needing to be done. But you can do your workout at the time that is most convenient for you and you don't have to factor in travel time etc. There's no fee either!
Maybe find little things that can motivate you e.g. I enjoy ticking off 'done' on to-do lists so I have an exercise log (an app) and a calendar I mark. For some folk it's sticking up pictures of what they want to weigh, or regularly trying on some outfit they want to slim into, or having a list of why they need to exercise, or mini goals/ milestones to mark along the way, or an exercise buddy, or a diary.... Or some combo of any of these!
Also find an exercise or 2 that you quite enjoy.
Find out what works for you.
You can do it Nicole :)

Our local council run gym runs a creche which is quite cheap (only a few pounds, if not less, for an hour I think), would there be anything like that in your area?

Nicole, are there no mother and baby groups near you - often the ones up here organise exercise hours at lunchtimes where they go and powerwalk round the park with buggies etc. My friend still does hers and her youngest is almost 3 now! x

Adding a couple of days (does brisk walking count as exercise?? I did break out in a sweat even though it was bitterly cold here!) If not, I'll drop it.

45 mins today Step (advanced, so high-high-energy :))
