I have gotten so caught up in an exciting opportunity to become a distributor of HCG that I have not posted in a few days. It has been great being able to share my story with other women and men.
Now to get caught up on what I have been doing in the gym.
Thursday 2/24 - turned into a long working day so I did not make it to the gym, this means I had to make it up over the weekend, that's what I get for not planning my day right.
Friday 2/25
I got right back into my routine - Friday was a cardio day.
Today I was by myself thanks to someone going to flaunt their toosh in the streets. I started out on the elliptical for about 20 minutes doing the hill climb and burned about 135 calories. I then hoped on a bike thinking that will be good for my legs. I was pedaling like hell doing the hill climb program, and it just did not seem like I was burning a lot of calories on the bike compared to the elliptical. I cycled 5.76 miles in 21 minutes and barely burned 103 calories. It just seems low for the number of miles I put in.
Since the bike did not seem to burn the calories I wanted I jumped back on the elliptical and did the Crossramp training on level 3 for 15 minutes. This was a great way to end my work out because I felt like I was being challenged and I started to sweat and feel the burn again. I lost another 130 calories and ended the day at 368 calories burned. I felt good about that and called it a night.
Saturday - 2/26 - Strength Make Up Day
Since I knew I missed Thursday and would have to make it up today I went to sleep early Friday night and woke up 6:45am Saturday morning. I figured I might as well get it out the way so I can start my weekend plans and get energized for the day.
I jumped on the elliptical which is becoming my favorite machine; to think I once was scared of it. I did the hill climb for 15 minutes to warm up. After that I focused on my arms today. They have been a work in progress. Unfortunately for me, over sized arms is a trait the women in my family have. I never had cut, toned arms even at my smallest so I am working hard to change the structure of my arms.
Bicep Curl - 80 total alternating between 10 and 20lbs
Chest Press - 3 sets of 20
Shoulder Press - 4 sets of 5 (for some reason this was a struggle for me today, I think it was because of the bicep curls, that exercise really got my biceps sore)
Yay! That completed my 5 days in the gym for the week. I was then off to planning for the 80's themed party I attended Saturday night, and yes I have pics, LOL.
