Wednesday went okay, did the usual workout in the morning, still feeling good...did the following exercises:
30 Slow Crunches
12 Reverse Crunches (touch feet over head)
12 Dumbbell Blast Off Push Up Hold
50 Russian Twist Crunches
24 Dumbbell Pivoting Goblet Squat (so great for the glutes - I can't get over it!!!)
24 (each side) Split Stance Alternating Bent Over Row
15 Leg Circles
I started with 30 min of Zumba to warm up as well.
SIDE NOTE:
The Jillian Michael's Triangle Press exercise was so effective the first day I did it (10 lb weights, 12 each side) that I may never need to do it again.
(READ: I was so sore for the next two days, I am now afraid to do it again). :D
Here it is (for you brave souls out there):
I wasn't able to find time to work out on Thursday (so I've decided it was my rest day) as I had a medical appt in Ottawa very early in the morning, got back to the gym at 2pm and left for a Black Belt Grading in Cornwall at 2:30pm...then got back home at 11:30pm). Due to my very long day on Thursday, I didn't get up on Friday morning to work out either (rest day #2?). And as soon as I'm done work today, I'm heading off to Kingston for a Martial Arts filled weekend. So...my workouts will certainly be different for the next few days...but I will train hard, dance hard and laugh hard (great ab workout, for sure!) so that I'm ready to go Monday morning for a new program I'm starting.
After my medical test in Ottawa yesterday, my very sweet husband decided to take me out for lunch at Moxie's, one of our favourite restaurants. Mark has always been one of those people who, when asked by a server to choose a side for his meal, will always order fries. Always. No matter how fancy the restaurant. Fries.
However, yesterday was different.
He asked for salad.
He grinned at my shocked expression - we both knew this had significance.
"So," I asked, "I guess this means you're back in the game?"
His lack of desire to change his eating habits had pretty much convinced me that I would win our friendly competition, no matter how long it took me to achieve the goal.
"Yup," he answered, looking quite smug.
No matter...I had ordered the spring mix salad and he had ordered the Caesar.
Sucker. ;)
