Good evening!!!
The day started off later than normal. I woke up around 6:45 am and did not get started on my work out until around 7 or so. Today was Shoulder and Arms. At first I was like "holy moly" because it was an 81 minute work out and I thought... there is simply NO WAY I am going to hang. However... as it turns out... I LOVED THIS WORK OUT!!!! It felt like it flew by. I rocked this exercise and love the strength training so much more than the cardio but I understand how important cardio is (grrrrrr). My overall intensity for the initial workout was amazing. I stuck through all of it and actually thought the bands I was using were not enough during some points. Our weights are outside on top of a high shelf and are too heavy for me to move so until Marky Mark gets them down for me... I am resistance band girl!!! After S and A, I had P90x Ab Ribber X. Bahahahahahahahaahaa... That was some funniness. No way I did the full 25 of ANY of the 12 sets. I did try my best though through the first 9. After 9... I just had NOTHING left to give so called it a day. Figured it was better to ensure I did them correctly and in the right form instead of royally goofing and messing something up.(Yeah.. that was totally bull... the truth is... I did not want to even remotely put my abs through the torture that was the last few exercises). LOVED having my protein shake following my work out. FELT GREAT!!! (Thanks MJ!!).
All during work, I felt I was on cloud nine. Energy- CHECK, Alertness- CHECK, Focus- CHECK. And that is saying something considering I had to sit through one of the WORST meetings EVER.
With regards to food, I ended the evening around 300 calories shy of my goal. Now... this is factoring in the calories burned during my work earlier this morning. Because of the horrendous and utterly pointless meeting I had to sit through, I missed lunch and by the time I got home, it was already time for dinner so it did not help that I skipped a meal. I know that kind of sounded like an excuse but in my defense, I did have my lunch with me all day with the intent to eat. I ONLY HAD ONE COKE ZERO TODAY!!! In addition, I met my water goal!!!! That rocked my socks off. One thing that I want to stress to myself is the importance of eating a solid breakfast. It's crazy how off I feel when I don't have a true breakfast (coffee just does NOT count). Walking out the door with the needed fuel every morning, I SWEAR, has a lot to do with my energy level and increase in focus.
Tomorrow is a cardio day, which means Turbo Fire! I am scheduled to do Low HIIT 20 and Stretch 10. Unfortunately, I cannot find my disk (not sure I have them) so instead I will just replace it with another disk.. most likely Fire 45 EZ.
So on that note, day four of my 90 is being put to nighty night!!! Peace!
Today was splendiferous overall!!!
