This post is going to be alllllll over the place. I haven’t blogged in a week and I have so much to say! LOL
Let’s start with Labor Day Weekend. It was such a great 3 days! Charlie and I did a good mix of relaxing, eating, and staying active. We ate Burger Lounge twice (my favorite turkey burger and fries EVER),
and watched about 500 episodes of Homicide Hunter.
OMG, have you seen this show? It is AMAZING. Lt. Joe Kenda is seriously THE MAN. I feel like I would admit to a murder I didn’t commit if I had to be interrogated by him. I can’t stop watching this show.
We also got in a great hike and a fun workout at the gym. The video below shows one of the most ridiculous combos I do. It doesn’t look that bad, but it literally kills me every time. It’s 3 pull ups, 3 push ups, 2 pull ups, 2 push ups, 1 pull up, 1 push up. That’s one set. This is my third. -_-
This week was busy (and short!), so I did a lot of catching up on Tuesday, after not working on Monday. I love 3 day weekends, but the pile of work that ends up on my plate by Tuesday is a bit overwhelming. Here’s what my workouts were like this week:
Weekly Workouts 9/1-9/5/14
Sunday: Legs
Monday: Evening hike
Tuesday: 20 min. Stairmill + Shoulder/Chest Workout
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Full Body Circuit (for a commercial we filmed) + Boxing
Friday: Legs
Saturday: Possibly a hike?
Sunday: Rest or active recovery
Last night, I took a boxing class again. I took a break from boxing for a bit after I got a weird knot in my back. We have some new instructors at Iron Boxing now, so I decided to jump in again. IT WAS AMAZING. I literally sweated out everything in my body. At one point while I was hitting the mitts, I almost thought I was going to pass out. I was giving EVERYTHING I had and pushed myself to the limit. It was incredible and I cannot WAIT to go back. These new instructors are THE REAL DEAL!
I’m gearing up for another great weekend of relaxing and spending time with some friends! (Oh, and obviously binge watching Homicide Hunter….)
Questions of the day:
Have you ever seen Homicide Hunter? (isn’t it the best?!!?!)
What is your favorite way to sweat?
