Day Ten
12-minute ass-whipping on the Sky Glider tonight!
Wow, adding music makes a real difference! It was much easier to establish a rhythm this time, although I'm still experimenting as to where to place my center of gravity. I found I got the best results if I was leaning forward slightly. Too far backward and I feel like I'm about to fall off. I had intended to go for at least fifteen minutes today, but after twelve minutes my arms and legs were shaking. Whoever says these machines only work one half of your body while the other half coasts along obviously wasn't doing it right! Oh, and unlike my first 10-minute ride on the Sky Glider, I used both arms and legs the entire time today. YEAH!
I've also decided I'm going to need to be extra diligent about exercise for a full twenty-one days instead of just fourteen. I had thought it only took two weeks to form a habit, but I read somewhere else that it took 21 repetitions of something before it became a habit. Oh well, not that I'm planning on stopping any time soon!
