Hermione -- don't worry about it. Take care of yourself!!! I've just arrived in Toronto and the hotel I'm staying in has a great gym -- so while it's too late to work out now (they're closed - 10:30PM), looks like I will get some exercise after all over the next few days.

04/25 - All the Right Moves = 65 minutes 04/26 - Dance Works = 62 minutes ATRM is another tape I've had for a couple years (at least) but hadn't gotten around to more than previewing it. It's what I call a "blended" tape - uses moves from yoga, pilates, and ballet/dance - my favorite type of workout. I really wasn't enjoying the beginning section of this tape but the abs and lower body floor work at the end were great. I plan to do this workout again but don't think I'll keep it in my Sunday yoga slot. This was more power yoga while I prefer the breath work and mind-body emphasis of hatha yoga. I had a conversation with another customer in the exercise video area of Barnes & Noble. It was nice to compare opinions of different workouts with someone! I was only there because I had a bonus coupon that was expiring. Ended up getting a meditation DVD.

hi guys, i just wanted to pop in. i took the day off from work and i went to the doctor's this morning about my back. they took x-rays and discovered that i have arthritis in my lower back! it's mild, but still a shocker to me as i just turned 35 which seems so young to have that problem. the doctor told me that it is not uncommon for arthritis to develop after an injury like the one i had 5 years ago that started all this back problem mess. anyway, she wants me to take a prescription pain killer for awhile and go to a physical therapist. she said i can resume light impact exercising like walking, and i can do upper body work as well, but to avoid high impact activities. i hope this afternoon to make it to the gym and do a light workout on the treadmill. i guess i should avoid the hill workout, which is a bummer as i love that. also, again, i apologize for not doing a chart recently. i have the stuff at home with me and will do a chart for the last 2 weeks sometime this afternoon also. thanks for keeping this going!

04/27 - The Firm: Super Shapers - Super Cardio = 61 minutes 04/28 - Balletone = 42 minutes Oh gosh, Hermione - sorry to read about your back problems. My mom has arthritis and I've done some research on exercises that would be appropriate for her. She really enjoys trail walking but I occasionally nag her to try other activities, such as pilates (which not only builds strength but improves range-of-motion) and workout videos specifically for people with arthritis. But she just ignores me, lol.

Regarding my post at 3:18, I meant to say "4/30 - 60 minutes In Pilates Mat class," not 4/20
