Welcome to the second Readers’ Workouts event! We had a good starting week last Tuesday: Readers’ Workouts April 3. Join us this week by writing a post about your previous workout adventures and sharing goals for the coming week. Link the post in the Mr. Linky form below so that we can visit each other to cheer our progress. If you want to participate without using a blog, make your report in the comments.

My first goal for the month of April is to exercise for 1400 minutes. I’m at 340 minutes, which is not quite on track but close enough to believe I’ll make it up.

My second goal is to do a full-body video workout on the odd days. I managed to do that. One day, I used Jillian Michael’s 30-Day Shred because it’s only 20 minutes — Level 1 was easier than I remembered so I must be doing something right. Another day, I was feeling kind of tight all over, so I used the Nia Global Unity DVD, a very fluid workout combining dance, yoga, qi gong, and martial arts. My body appreciated that. The Nia video takes 55 minutes and I have to park my cynicism in the corner of the room for the duration–but I suppose that’s a good exercise, too. My other two workouts were the Start It Up routine of Slim in 6.

How was your week of exercise?
