I worked out again yesterday (yay)!
I did the circuit training dvd that I did on Saturday. When I got home, I sensed that I would not be walking (as I did on Monday) so I popped in the DVD (which is now kept by the dvd player-thumbs up) and I did my thing. I worked out for 30 minutes. I admit I did not hang in until the last set which would have been another 15 minutes. It has 5 sections:
1- Warmup
2- Beginner’s -1st Gear
3- Intermediate -2nd Gear
4- Advanced-3rd Gear
5- Cool Down
I did the first 3 and called it a day. Man, I was sweating up something. I don’t sweat like that when I walk. It has various exercises ( jogging, cross skiing motions, arm presses, ab crunches, lounges, power squats etc.) It’s more of a bootcamp style and I don’t mind since I have been to boot camp before (Army National Guard - over 10 years ago – lol).
Well, I had to wash a load of clothes when I got home yesterday and then go somewhere so I thought I wouldn’t make it if I continued through the advanced and the cool down-my excuse (and I was tired-lol). But I did the whole dvd on Saturday. I will TRY do it again tonight, b/c I know I want be walking due to church meeting. That’s the plan.
It wasn’t that bad this time. Although I think I did better Saturday b/c I worked out in the morning after I woke up as opposed to working out right after work. I was thinking about getting up early in the morning and working out, but I do not like waking up early in the morning – yuck! I may give it a try one day though.
I was trying to be so prepared w/ my meals this week, but when I went to fix my oatmeal for breakfast, I didn’t have anymore –dangit! I thought I had some left. So I didn’t eat breakfast and just drank some juice and that is a big no no b/c I will be starving for lunch.
I have the family reunion coming up this weekend. I tried to get out of it-lol, b/c I knew we would be eating buffet (country style) food on Friday and BBQ on Saturday. I will try to brace myself – may the force be w/ me!
