Today, we did a 40 seconds of exercise and 20 seconds of rest. It killed the day after, but I had a lot of fun doing it. I enjoyed the variety of activities we did. I also liked that it was like an at home workout. I think I got better at motivating myself in this fitness activity. I think what works for me is looking at how much time is left. It's sort of a reminder that it's almost over, and that I only have to do it for a few more seconds. I made a few modifications for some of the exercises, because I wouldn't have been able to last the full 40 seconds had I not done so. For example, I think there was an exercise where you reach your knee to the side and do a push up, then do the same to the other side. I took out the push up, since the push up was a bit much for me. I was still able to do the exercise, just without the push up. For next time, I hope to do less modifications, and do the full exercises. Another improvement for next time would be motivating the people around me more. I noticed that some of the people, including myself, would sometimes give up when there was still a few seconds left. I hope for next time that I will cheer people on, and think positive thoughts, so that I, too, won't give up so easily.
This is a fantastic reflection! Love how specific you get with exercises that need modifications and the desire to eventually move past that.
