So this is where the rubber meets the road.... we ended up missing a day. I woke up late for work (I blame it on the alarm, but I am quite certain it was human error) and had to just rush out the door asap.
No work out... no 8 minutes. This is the spot that most workout plans end up going wrong and never recovering. You miss one day and it is SO much easier to skip the next day.. and the next. Then the next thing you know you are on the couch with that spoon and a tub of lard.
I mean if your workout consists of 30 min to 1 hour and driving to the gym, etc.... its damn hard to keep that up in the beginning. I am sure once you do this for months it becomes habit, but we all know that most folks never get to that point as they end up missing a day in the beginning and go downhill from there.
This is another way the 8 Minutes in the Morning is so great. We missed one day (8 minutes), so we just double up the next day (16 minutes in the morning).. and BAM we are back on track!
If you miss a 45 minuted workout and try to double up the next day you are talking an hour and a half.... who the heck has time for that?
We were even luckier this time as Day 7 is supposed to be an "off day", so we just did our workout on the off day and were all caught back up to start week 2. Very cool feeling to be back on track and not have to go through all the guilt and beating yourself up for days, etc. (there are plenty of other things I can beat myself up about).
By the way, the day 6 work out was inner and outer thighs (sounds a lot more fun than it really was..lol).
