30-Day Shred – Day Four

*I forgot to hit the “publish” button yesterday after I wrote my post.  Today is actually Day Five…which I’ll do after I take a luxurious nap!

Today was the first day that I really felt that my endurance was increasing.  I’ll admit that I didn’t do the advanced moves like Jillian’s BFF, but green-sports-bra girl and I were right together.  Most of my soreness has disappeared, and I even found myself lunging and squatting a little deeper today. 

Grace watched me do my routine for the first time, and she was enthralled.  After I finished, she begged me to start the video over so she could do exercise on my mat.  It was so cute to see her imitating me and Jillian.  Here she is doing some crunches:

She totally made it through the 20 minute workout doing the best she could on all the moves.  I am so tempted to get her a little yoga mat and set of 1-lb. weights.  She would love it! 

After the workout was over, she asked me to start it a third time so Lambie could exercise, too.  She was copying everything that Jillian was saying…”Jumping Jacks, let’s go!…get those hands up high!…there are no modified moves here!”  Hilarious.

That's adorable, and exactly the sort of positive influence you want to have on your daughter... she's watching you and learning how to take good care of her body. :-) Good job Mom!
