My favorite exercise is laying on my back with my legs in the air and doing chest presses. I find it challenging and when I'm done I definitely feel like I've been working out.
I find the exercises in the ten minute workout to be sometimes challenging and my body always feels the after effects. I feel exhilarated and proud of myself for sticking to the simple regimen.
And, even though I'm going through a difficult time right now, I find that my bipolar has stayed in check and I account that to sticking to my exercises. That's not to say that I'm not having moments of sadness, because I am, but I'm able to control it and not let it take over my entire day.
My next test will be doing the 12-day workout.
In the meantime, Michael has told me that he's really excited about his new book that's coming out in the Spring. He just got done all his photographs for the book and he's built his new website that will be available soon.
