Ok, here we go…Week 2 of the Fat Loss Quickie Home Office Workout. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, I’ve been part of a 30 day workout along with other WAH folks like Nicole, Patti, Susanne, Angela and many others. We’ve all been journaling our progress on this workout created specifically for those of us who work at home and have neglected our health and fitness.

Now, onto week 2! Wow that just sounds awesome to be able to say I’ve been doing this for 2 weeks now.

This is what I woke up to on Twitter this morning from Scott, owner of Fat Loss Quickie.

You see I did those 100 squats yesterday. And, Scott being the good trainer he is was checking up on me and keeping me going. He KNEW I was going to be sore even before I felt it. ;0) At that point I hadn’t really felt it yet. Maybe it was because I had just woke up and sat down to my computer and my legs were still asleep, maybe it’s because Scott has this super power that makes things happen when he speaks them…I don’t know but here was my reply: (Remember now, I said I wasn’t all the way awake yet, yeah well you’ll see that when you see the way I spelled “thought”)

Well I’d say within about an hour of that comment…they started hurting! I felt muscles I haven’t felt in the back of my legs, butt and thighs since I gave birth. Yeah, so Scott if you’ve got a super power I don’t know about – let’s leave it that way from now on please…some things are better left unsaid! ;0)

So for today’s workout we started with Day 1 again. This time the goal was to push a little bit further than the first go around. We did Knee Ups & Burpees again today.

Knee Ups – I actually kind of like these they are one of the few exercises I can do the whole way through and they definitely get the blood flowin’ and the heart beatin’!

Burpees - Oh burpees. I won’t lie – I’m a wimp when it comes to pushups and combine that with my clumsiness and the fact that it’s not just a push up but jumping and more…Yeah it’s not an easy task for me those burpees. So, I did what I could and improvised a bit when I couldn’t.

I was actually starting to get a bit aggravated at myself that I couldn’t do more than 2 or 3 at a time when the song on the music channel I had been listening to (Party Hits) gave me a sign! Leave it to Lady Gaga to keep me moving and give me an out. “Just Dance” – which happens to be on of my favorite get focused and do it songs came on. What did I do in place of those burpees?

Yep, you guessed it. I DANCED! – Hey, I almost always do what I’m told.

So, today’s workout was original supposed to be Knee Ups followed by Burpees and do it over again for a total of 5 times. For me, it was Knee Ups, Burpee (or 2) then JUST DANCE! Honestly, I broke a decent sweat that way. So much so that once I finished the workout I ran to the bathroom and took a nice cool shower! AHHH That felt so good!

Even though I was still huffing and puffing for a bit after my shower, I still felt GREAT! My inlaws actually came over while I was in the shower and I walked out and immediately told them about the workout. ;0)
