QUADRICEPS?

do you know what these are? these are the muscles on the front of your thighs. i know what these muscles are. What I didn't know was that by trying a "new" yoga pose yesterday that me and my quadriceps were going to become great friends. Or maybe enemies.

I have stairs in my house. Ouch.
I have a minivan. Ouch.
I have kids that leave stuff all over the house that I have to bend down and pick up. Ouch.
Because I am a woman, I have to sit. OUCH!

Did I mention that with Wii Fit yoga when you hold a pose it's for less than a minute. That may sound like a short amount of time. However, when you're balancing precariously in various positions, 30-40 seconds can seem like FOREVER! I only tried the "new" pose once. 30-40 seconds on each leg. Today I am paying for it.

Again, if it doesn't hurt, it's not working. Right!?

(p.s.- I still LOVE my WiiFit!)

Do you think I would exercise more if I had a WiiFit? Your mom and I walked this morning and vented to each other. Ahhhhhhhhhh, feels good.

I LOVE the wii fit too! I was doing so good, but I haven't done it once this month. UUGH!
Good for you, maybe you can motivate me to get back to it. I agree those Yoga poses are no joke!

Oh yeah and your blog is too cute!
