Me an' EA Sports Fitness - Week Two

Day one, January 15th - Twenty minutes and consisted of:

• Walking and running around a track
• Hitting targets and heavy bag with fists, legs, and knees
  
• Lunges

I have bought Walk It Out to augment these workouts by walking on rest days. My scores have been in the 40% range due to inactivity on those days. Tomorrow will be the first day that I use the game on a rest day - we'll see what happens! I tried Walk It Out! and it was terrible - I'll see if I can create a walking program in EA Sports Fitness instead or do it for real! There's an idea for ya!

Day two, January 16th - Rest day: forty-five minutes and consisted of:

• Walking for two miles via Walk It Out! After Suelane and I tried it, we found the software to be terrible, so I returned it.
