Like my "ugh F this noise" look??
It was one of those days I did not want to go to the gym. Hormones and a tiff the night prior had left me exhausted and weepy at every little thing. And the day did not really have any significant progress to it either. Like seriously, I almost cried because the Indian food I had treated myself to for lunch was terrible, then started crying at the grocery store because I couldn't find any peach frozen yogurt. I know, I know, go ahead and laugh.
Although I felt like crap, I knew I would feel even more like crap if I didn't expend some energy and pretend to lift some heavy things and put them back down. So today's workout was definitely what I would consider an easy one, but I pushed through and even managed to be tired at the end of it.
Workout:
Eliptical- 3 minute warm up at level 5. Kicked it up to level 7 for 5 minutes. Did intervals of forward/reverse for 1 minute at a time for 4 minutes. 2 minute recovery. Repeat interval/recovery 3 times.
Side Plank with Leg Lifts- 2 sets of 20 each side.
Front Plank- 30 sec x 2
Front Plank with Leg Lift- 20 x 2 each side
Alternate Leg and Arm Hold- On all fours, extend right arm and left leg. Hold for 20 seconds then lower. Switch to left arm, right leg. Hold 20 seconds. Repeat 3 times.
Weight Circuit:
Bent Over Fly- 10lb. 12 reps
