I'm slacking on posting the actual day of my workouts. Let me share last Saturday's workout with you.
I was determined to put in a heavy duty work out because I had fallen behind with this first week at a new job that means a longer commute which then means a longer day. I started off on the elliptical and focused on increasing my resistance each time my incline increased. I was very difficult to stay in this pattern but I was determined to give an intense workout.
After being on the elliptical for 30 mins I hit the treadmill and did 25 mins of interval training. I like hitting the treadmill at the end of my cardio session because it serves as a great cool down before doing weights. I dis about an hour on weights and core on Saturday which is more than I usually can stand.
I started off with some leg press machines, then worked my triceps and biceps. I headed down to the womens only gym and did a core rotund of crunches, bicycles, and planks. After I repeated my weight machine sets and continued alternating squats and lunges with a core work out.
I felt great by the end of the work out!
Sadly I am disappointed in myself for not reaching the gym on Sunday. Thankfully I found out that there is a gym in my office building that is crazy cheap for employees so I need to investigate that this week...when I find a window of me time ;) the world of events is crazy intense but I love every minute of it!
