I got my replacement band from EA but is very hesitant of using it. In the meantime, I’ve forced myself to use the medium intensity Pilates band that I bought when the band first broke. Upon my second set of shoulder presses, I noticed the band got looser. I’m worried that this may be the first sign of it potentially snapping on me like its easier brother did several days earlier.
In any event, I’ve completed Workout 10 of the 30 Day Challenge, but noticed that my progress has fallen behind. The calendar cataloguing your progress showed me at Day 16 out of 30, which essentially means I’m a day behind now. In order to catch up and finish this challenge on time, I need to do the last half without a break day. I can probably squeeze in one or two break days, but any more and I won’t finish on time.
The thing about this program is that it is very forgiving in the 30 Day Challenge. It didn’t tell me that I was a day behind. I just noticed it on my own. If you can’t complete the 30 Day Challenge in 30 days or less, it doesn’t really care from the looks of it. Just try again and hopefully you can do it the second or third time around. It’s similar to how the game tries to lock you out of working out on break days. It prompts you with information as to why it is important, but ultimately, it’s your decision to work out or not.
Wii Fit says I’m hovering at 156. I took my Wii Fitness Age, which is a gimmicky version of finding out your physical fitness age, and it claimed that I was 20. Last time I took it was a month ago, and it said I was 23. Mom took it, and it said she was 30 years younger than she really is, which is very good for a senior citizen.
On a related note, Wii Fit PLUS was announced at E3 recently. It’s the sequal to Wii Fit offering similar options to Active, mainly the creating a customized workout that will go from one exercise into the other for however long you wish to work out. That alone is reason enough for me to consider it, as I now finally have a simple and easy way of incorporating yoga into my daily fitness routine. Strangely enough, with that announcement, I came to the epiphany that I’m more interested in fitness games now than I am in, say, the upcoming Ghostbusters game or even my copy of Punch-Out!! First a dropping interest in porn, and then a dropping interest in video games. I can only wonder where my interests will be when I get Spore: Galactic Adventures in the mail next month.
