Day 14 - REST, Day 15 - fit test

I don't know where I put my most recent fit test results - so here are these ones for today:

Switch kicks: 108

Power Jacks: 40

Power knee: 100

Power jumps: 22

Globe jumps: 10

suicide jumps: 15

Push-up jacks: 18

Low plank oblique: 50

This ran me out of breath like forty times... what's up with that? I must have not tried very hard the first time.... cuz I HAD to take the breaks in between. And I remember the first time, I thought this was so boring cuz the breaks were so long. ha

Day 13 - pure cardio and cardio abs

I LOVE the low/high plank pulse move in the ab workout. IT KILLS.

And my fave move in pure cardio -football stance! love it! :)

Today was a great workout. Still loving pure cardio!

Time to get my hair done! :)

Day 11 - cardio recovery, Day 12 - cardio power and resistance, p90x chest and shoulders

Did cardio recovery yesterday but forgot to write.

Did both work outs this morning - insanity, and my p90x arms. It felt nice to do a ton, but I also felt really bored this morning. Not sure why. I'm excited for tomorrow to finish my second week and move onto my third! It's about time! :)

Day 10 - Plyometric Cardio Circuit, another p90x video?

So, woke up with Eric, and was SO tired, went back to sleep. UGH.

So tonight, gotta fit in this work out and want to get an arm work out in. Hopefully Eric stays at work pretty late today so I can get it done before he gets home.

So, just annoyed with myself. And really need to not go to bed after 9 pm. We stayed up until 11:30 or so, because we babysat a neighbor's kids while they were gone. And it just makes me way too tired. Apparently, I just need a lot of sleep. lol

More after I do the work outs tonight! :)

Was able to do insanity, but not the extra arms. Ah well - Insanity is the only thing I have to get through 60 days of, so the arms I just want to do - and wish I had the time yesterday. I'll have to make sure I get them done Friday.

Day 9 - pure cardio

Did pure cardio this morning, then got all ready and headed to the gym. I was so excited I could barely sleep. haha

My first yoga class (in a group setting) was so fun! They did this thing called "inversion" and I was the only one who could do it myself - boy, do I feel like a super star! :)

Today is a wonderful day. Also, I've gained two pounds in the last few weeks,and have been very diligent to get rid of it, and today, I lost it all and an extra pound! So 4.8 more until I'm comfortable for the cruise.

Also... my stomach/waist... it's freaking tiny. So why can't my legs be??? This is the one mystery I will never understand. It must just mean I carry my weight in my legs, so if I'm able to drop more weight, than my legs should lose the fat on them, right? That's the hope! So here's to getting rid of those pesky 9 lbs still. I've also started taking this vitamin that's supposed to help heal my knee. We'll see. For now, yoga, insanity, and p90x are doing a great job at keeping me going. I want spring to come out a bit more so I can start biking more. Eric and I can now go swimming though, so we'll be working on that! If I can't run by July, I'll be so sad. I really want to do my tri. We'll see. Maybe this year won't be the year - I just really want it to be.

ALSO - I was thinking about this today. It's amazing how much just two or three extra pounds makes me feel. I mean, it doesn't seem like a lot, but it is. I dropped eight pounds in p90x and it's amazing the difference I felt. Then, I added a pound or two since p90x, and lost it this week, and the difference is just incredibly in the way I feel.

Day 7 - rest, Day 8 - Cardio Power and Resistance

Sooooo I'm kinda mad at myself. I did get up and do Insanity, but didn't have enough time to do p90x, and I so wanted to. I may try to fit it in tonight, OR, go swimming with Eric at the gym. We'll see.

Let's see... I figured out my problem with eating. I just mindlessly eat when I do eat - and then I eat too much. Need to concentrate on how much I'm actually eating. Serve less, and serve more later if I'm still hungry. New goal this week!

Day 5 - pure cardio, Day 6 - shoulders and arms, abs/plyo cardio circuit

Yesterday I did pure cardio - it's easy for me now. :)

Today, added shoulder and arms, abs to my insanity work out from p90x. I got three weeks until we go on the cruise baby! I gotta lose 5 lbs in three weeks... possible? I think so. Here goes.
