First I should probably explain about the exercise. Last night, once it was too late for me to really experiment a whole lot, I discovered Jog.FM, a website that suggests music for you according to how fast you want to walk/run a mile. I decided that since exercising to music is supposed to be so good for you, I would try to find something to match the pace of my workout video. Last night all I managed to find out was that it was about 128 BPM, but this morning I looked up some songs I liked that were around the right tempo and made an exercise playlist on Playlist.com to go with the video. Unfortunately, a lot of the songs were off just enough to throw me off, and I spent a lot of the time I was exercising to the video pausing to skip to a better song. After that experience, I decided it would just be easier to do the same exercises without the video. This has had a lot of benefits for me now that I've tried it- a lot of my songs are actually faster paced than the video was, and I tend to get into them enough to dance around a bit, increasing my work. I also pause for marching less and stick keep up with things more, and since I'm counting more carefully than the woman in the video was, I had time for four sets of exercises instead of three each time. This is what I'm referring to below and here on out as my modified workout.
