Yesterday was a Yoga X day. I really enjoy yoga because it’s a very calming workout, even though you do alot of movement. It was enjoyable, despite being in a bad mood.

I had to rush the end of it a little because I had to make it to my aerial class. I was still in a bad mood afterwards, so I ended up leaving my aerial class early, but not before I did something really stupid to my toe.

Now, my toe is swollen and it hurts to walk. I’m going to see if I can do today’s workout when I get home, but I’m not sure. I really hope I can, because I’d hate to have to abort again over something so stupid.

As a side note, very soon my program for displaying and saving charts from my heart rate monitor.

Didn’t get a chance to post yesterday or today because I was really busy. I did do Plyometrics yesterday, and holy crap it was hard. The high-impact nature of it bothers me a little, but I think I’m going to get a really shock-absorbing yoga mat to help out with that, and it’s one of the few workouts that I’m doing with shoes on. Since it has so much jumping, I had to do it in the garage, which isn’t too bad.

I’m trying to figure out the best way to handle posting information to the website. I don’t particularly like posting all the numbers since it takes so much effort to post that. I’m thinking I’ll just talk about improvements during the posts. Maybe I’ll post my spreadsheet. I’ve been research the “power score” thing that one of the blogs I read has for showing progress. I might implement something similar.

Also, for cardio-type days (Plyo, CardioX, yoga, etc), I think I’m going to just post my heart rate information. I didn’t use my HRM yesterday, but I totally should have.

Since my HRM outputs everything as XML, I’m working on a small C# program that reads the XML file and generates the charts for me. Currently, I’m using a python script, but I think I’d rather make it a more robust, ui based system that allows me to save the file out as a PNG or maybe it even uploads the file to my blog?

Anyway, yes. Plyo was great but hard. My knees don’t hurt too much today.
