We made it people. It’s Friday, and the weekend starts….NOW. Well, not really for me. I have to work a bit this weekend, but I like what I do, so it’s not all that bad. I started my day with this new-to-me flavor of Fage. I’m a fan!!
Workout
Yesterday’s workout was a heavy lift with some plyometrics sprinkled in. The plyometrics were an after-thought, but I’m glad I did them. The workout ended up being pretty tough, but fun.

Squat Jumps: bw x 10, bw x 10, bw x 10, bw x 10
Superset #2 – 3 Sets

Then: (done separately)
Dumbbell Reverse Lunges: 15 x 15, 20 x 10, 25 x 8, 30 x 6

It was a great workout and I’m definitely sore today! It feels good. I’m working on squatting heavier. Squats are my weakest leg lift. My guru and very first personal trainer, Bret Contreras, told me that since I have long femurs, it’s very common to be able to do heavy deadlifts and hip thrusts but be weaker on squats. Just have to keep working at it!
Last night I made my favorite Chicken dish. I finally took some photos of the process too! Sorry for the crappy iPhone photos. Someday I’ll use the real big-boy camera and take some better ones.
Lastly, I’ll leave you with how I combat boredom at the airport…..:-D
Practicing Yoga…err something..
In case you were wondering…
I’m a child.
