Day 11 (1st day of level 2) YEOWCH!!!!

Today I wasn't looking forward to starting level 2. My whole lower leg (knees, shins and calves) were killing me. I don't know if I was just sore from going deeper into the moves, or if I did a move wrong, but they were just sore.

I watched level 2 yesterday night to just get myself familiarized with the workout. I've heard that level 2 was the hardest/most challenging, so I had to see what it was all about. After watching it yesterday, I thought "I can do that!". But today was another story. I don't know if I just wasn't hyped up, or if I was still trying to wake up, or if it was just hard, but I was struggling.

The warm up was good, I even made it through the walking push ups. I think what the killer was just getting used to all the new moves, moving onto unfamiliar territory. I just didn't have the endurance to get through it and (sadly) had to take a lot of 5 second breathers. I just hope that didn't account to a whole minute of "breathers".

But I'm glad I did get through it and promise myself to try a lot harder tomorrow. This was just the challenge that I needed to break up the monotony of level 1.

Now to eat some breakfast! Kashi Go Lean Strawberry Flax waffles anyone?
