Arm Workout/Food Porn

Happy Weekend!

The SO unexpectedly had a half day and was home by noon, so we went to the gym together. With his work schedule we haven't been able to do that for the past 3 weeks, and poor guy is going on mandatory 12's starting Monday, so it was really nice to be able to poke at and tease each other at the gym.


Ok, back to the grind. Workout is as follows. Do it. Enjoy it. Come back for more muwahahahaha.


Cardio:
Elliptical- 15 minutes at level 8, staying at about 6.8-7.2 mph



Weights:
Kettleball Swing Alternating Arms- 10lb. 3 sets, 40 reps.

Kettleball Side Lunge with Woodchopper- 15lb. 3 sets, 12 reps each side.

Squats- 60lb. 3 sets, 10 reps.


Core:
Front Plank with Leg Lift- 2 sets, 20 reps each leg.

Hands and Knees Balance/Swing to Side- 2 sets, 30 seconds each side. (After lifting left leg/right arm, slowly bring both arm and leg horizontally out to the side while keeping core tight. Breathe deep and slow. Hold for set count, then slowly return. Repeat on other side.)

Camel Pose- 30 seconds x 2.

Tricep Dips on Bench with Raised Leg- 3 sets of 10 reps each side.


So after all that I was starving (finally after weeks of heartburn I actually had an appetite! Yay digestive enzymes and infused water!!!!) and we went to a little restaurant in our new town, called Roosters Brewery and Restaurant. So. Freaking. Good. 

And since it was Friday I went ahead and splurged a little. I love onion rings. Like, have an emotional affair with onion rings. And these were amazing!

Actual dinner was a little more sensible, but OMG delicious. Red rice, quinoa, lentils on salad greens with grilled chicken. Hello some of the most delicious protein I've had in a hot minute!

After dinner we were so full we absolutely HAD to walk around a bit. Then Dustin suggested ice cream since I had literally been crying in the grocery store the other day because they didn't have peach frozen yogurt.  Twist my arm. So off we walked to Sub Zero Ice Cream. We had never been there, and they literally freeze your ice cream right there with liquid nitrogen. Awesome sauce.

This is my new friend. I call him Fruity Fusion. We love each other.

Anyway, I'm not usually a fan of rewarding yourself with food after a workout, but Friday's are different. Especially if you eat at home 99.9% of the time :)
