Yay!! We finally made it!!
Yesterday was VERY busy at work. It seemed like things were going well then, out of the blue, things suddenly went south and everything blew up! I went from "ok, this is going great, I might get out of here on time" to "I'm sorry honey, I'm still working and don't know when I'll be finished" Even my co-workers were surprised. They kept saying "what are you doing here, isn't it time for you to go home"
When I finally got out of there, I blazed a trail straight home. I had a new workout to try and I was eager to get to it (not really, but trying to be enthusiastic for your sakes) Hubs and I have been doing our 30 day strength training program pretty faithfully. I'm really liking it. I think I can see some changes in my arms already. We adjusted our rest day this week to accommodate schedules though so we were taking last night off. Well, I was browsing the interwebs the other day and I saw that Jillian Michaels has a new workout DVD out, the One Week Shred. I was intrigued.
I'm a fan of Jillian. I have most of her DVD's. It's an intense 7 day workout and custom diet plan designed to help you lose the last few stubborn pounds that you've been dying to lose for a special event. Well, I just happen to have a college reunion next weekend, so I bought it. You're supposed to start with the strength workout in the morning and do the cardio workout in the evening. Each workout is about 30 minutes. Well, I did them both back to back last night. I've done several of her workouts in the past and I have to say that this one is pretty challenging. When I finished, I felt like I had done some work! It will be interesting to see the results at the end of the week!
I'm supposed to meet some friends for happy hour after work. I really would like to go, but I don't want to miss my workout so we'll see. No big plans for us this weekend. We're just going to play it by ear. We may stay home and chill but we might fly by the seat of our pants and find something fun to do. Who knows?!
Until next time--get up, get out, get moving! Have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend!!
Your friend,
Theresa
What's on your agenda for this weekend?
Can't wait to see how it turns out! I am running the Publix Half on Sunday here in ATL and hitting the expo tomorrow. Good luck on the SHRED.
ReplyDeleteThanks! How was the half marathon??
DeleteWould love to hear how it turns out. Have done a couple of her other dvd's while on vacation. Good Stuff.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good workout for sure!!
DeleteI've been doing her 30 day shred (but not every day!) and I like it a lot. I love that it's only 30 minutes but I feel like I got a good workout. Hope you get the results you're looking for!
ReplyDeleteThanks! 30 minutes is just the right time for a workout, I think!!
