308/356: Gatorade

Damn it, damn it, damn it all. I am so far behind with posting it's not even funny.

I was very close to just giving up on posting. Just the posting though. No way I am giving up the project so close to the end. Buuuut then I thought better off it.. mainly because, without the blog I have no idea where I am with the days.

So here it is, the post from, well, 14 days ago? I shall see as I get closer to yesterday's new thing.
I had a Gatorade to keep me hydrated during workout. The waterboy would not approve.

297/356: Powerarde Zero

Moar workout

After a pretty tough workout on saturday (Mossa Power on Xbox Fitness) I felt like more. I decided for a cardio workout earlier during the day (Mossa Fighter on Xbox Fitness). So to complement that I decided to try a Powerade Zero. From what I gather Powerade is essentially another Gatorade.

I have always believed that water is the best to drink during a workout. I thought I might give it a go away anyhow. I am not sure if it helped me at all but the blue colour is nice....

The Mosse Fight workout is fantastic though. I will do another one tonight. I can't wait!

239/356: Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 and Yoga

Two new things on this day.. I should really be wiser by now. Instead of doing two new things, I could spread them out and replace one day where I would just try a new beer... ahh I will never learn.

Today is Friday. Nearly 5pm to be exact and I am still sore (this is Wednesdays first). Weirdly, different muscles are sore to the ones that were sore yesterday. I guess you could say that the first was an absolut success.

Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 is a workout "game" for Xbox (Kinect). It tracks your body while you do exercises which it tell you to do. I have had Nike+ Kinect for over a year now and kinda started to get bored with it. That was one reason why I got Fitness Evolved. The other one was the fact that I have wanted to try Yoga for a while now but haven't managed to find a beginners course here in Bern. So I googled which workout "game" (it's not actually a game) has Yoga and Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 turned up in the search.

I went home, downloaded it and went right to work. An hour later I felt great. I didn't feel like I was all that exhausted but I can tell you now that I must have done it right. I am not sure if there is a bigger variety of exercises than in Nike+ Kinect but because they are different, it feels fresh. Also the presentation is a little more interesting in Nike+ Kinect.

I only did an 8 minute Yoga workout and lots of other things so I can't say for sure what I am feeling today. I will go back and do another Yoga workout in the days to follow. It kinda WAS relaxing. I would have loved to do one today but I have a rule that I wait with working out until my muscles are not sore anymore.I am away for the weekend so it will have to wait a few more days. I look forward to the next session though.
