Day 13 Level 2

Today seemed a little harder for me.  I think I was working harder at it all this morning.  Still have a few places that I have a little strugle with.  I can do the walk out push-ups pretty good, but I know that I don't go down low enough on the push-ups.  I'm sort of in between the regular and modified version.  I doubt I will ever get all the way down on push-ups.  My arms just can't take that torture.  I kinda like doing the plank jacks.  On this one you go in a plank position and then you take your legs out to the side like you do on regular jumping jacks.  The bad part is you go right into double jump-rope after this.  I still have to do the single jump-rope moves.  I can't bounce that much or that high.  Getting up and down off the floor fast isn't so easy either for someone my age..ha.

So, I'm almost certain I am going to buy a HRM(Heart Rate Monitor).  I talked to Sadie (daughter) yesterday and she has a Polar FT4.  She is a fitness instructor and she likes this one.  I think that is probably what I will get too.  The best deal so far is on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001U0OFD2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER    Although I am watching a couple on eBay that are ending today.
