I just finished my morning exercises. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday I do a combination of pilates, toning, and abs (I mix and match so the combination is not more than 45 minutes). On Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I do a step aerobic workout.

I really like the toning video I use. You choose how long you want to work out and then it randomly picks enough one minutes exercises to fill that time. However, in one way the instructor really annoys me. Almost all fitness instructors like doing exercises in multiples of four. Often one will do 8, 12 or 16 reps depending on the exercise. However, Lessig’s toning video doesn’t. Sometimes we’ll do 10 reps but sometimes it’s 11 or 22 or 19. This always throws me off balance. If I know at the beginning of the exercise how many reps I need to do, I can usually stick it out. However, without knowing sometimes I give up. Oh well, other than that it’s an excellent video.
