wednesday workout

Was so not in the mood to workout, but after having lost an inch off my waist I wanted to keep up the good work.

So the workout was from Bodyrock.tv and it was the Lookin Fierce Workout.


It took me 15:58 for me to complete 4 rounds of this circuit workout.

It was fun and really worked my rear and abs.   i'm glad i did it!

Progress

Okay, my eating habits have not been the best with family coming in and the holiday weekend..However, My eating habits during the week are better and helping to clean out the bad eating. I have had plenty of water to combat salty foods and am eating more in moderation when it comes to the junk and specialty food. Getting workouts in has been tough just because there has been so much going on and instead of bodyrocking i've just done squats and pushups and dips sans intervals. while at the computer shoulder presses and leg extensions with my band to get something in. Back though to going to zumba classes and having tons of fun really pushing it every session.

Apparently it's was helping because i measured myself and my waist lost an inch. I am 3 inches away from my goal measurement. My tummy is pulling in and that makes me happy.I have been doing a lot of fitness reading about working with my own body weight and i know which exercises i need to add weight to and this seems to be working for now. Intervals are really helpful with cardio and so is Zumba.I read The Female Body Breakthrough by Rachel Cosgrove and I love her chapter on how to coordinate your workouts with your menstrual cycle. It makes so much sense and i think i will adapt that knowledge into my routine to strengthen it and see if it can help me push through those days when I'm just in the mood to skip working out.

Trying to meal plan is difficult b/c there are day where i just feel that i want to eat something else. Or, i get a sweet tooth and want something sweet rather than savory. How to get over that is still baffeling me.  Though my snacking is getting better and more healthy love Pistachios and cranberries. Also Mission figs..mmmmmm.

I am looking forward to the next part of my journey.
