Caught Red Handed

So, today, my boys finally figured out what I am doing when I disappear for an hour.  Something went wrong with their TV program and they went to go and find me . . . . . and find me they did!  I was right in the middle of my Polymetrics workout. (aka. . . . jumping and sweating)  Dustin immediately got worried and decided that he needed to sit on my bed and watch me while I worked out to make sure I was okay.  It may have been my extremely red face that worried him, or the fact that I was sweating buckets and almost crying that worried him, or maybe he just hasn't seen me move around like that for a long time that set him off.  Whatever it was, the kid was worried about me.
I feel great now!  I probably should shower before I take Dustin to the bus stop, but I am so glad that I took the time to do that workout.  So far it is my favorite!  I have had problems with my calves and ankles because of running and I can see that this high impact workout may end up causing me problems, but hopefully I can modify some of the moves and then it won't affect my legs and I can keep doing it once a week!
As a follow-up to yesterday, I never did get the time to do my Ab ripper workout that I was hoping to do yesterday evening because I got home too late and I had a ton of stuff still left to do. . . . so tomorrow it is!  My abs are waiting and ready!  I can't wait to get some strength back in my ab muscles.
I know that this is only day 5 of my workouts, but I am really enjoying myself so far.  I feel really inflexible and out of shape, but I can feel my muscles thanking me!  It really helps that I have already lost 5 lbs since I have started and even though I know that I will eventually plateau, this has been really rewarding for me to see the immediate results. . . . it's really motivating!
When I was in high school and dating Otto, and even when we were still living in the married student housing at the University, I did a bunch of weight training and I was really into it.  I can feel that my muscles remember the training that I did and I am already feeling them tighten up again and I am loving it!!!
So off to the rest of my day now.  Day 5 is finished!!!
