Love, Sweat, and Beers

Life’s about balance, right?  Well I guess that’s what you can call it.  Let me just start with my workouts as of late.  I’m happy to report that they’re going much better than last week.

The eats have been good too!

Monday was a back and biceps day with a 3-mile run.  I actually worked out after work instead of in the morning, which was a lovely change.

Tuesday was just a walk with Kevin before work.  I considered doing more, but this just felt right.

I finished up a great workouts yesterday.  I blame it on the “skank shorts.”  I sort of followed Julie’s 55-minute incline walking/running workout, but I only did half the incline with all the same speeds.  Yup – you read that correctly.  I still got a decent workout from half the incline.  I followed up with goblet squats, plie squats, and my favorite version of bridge lifts.

skank shorts for the win

Today I plan to run 3 miles (or elliptical with intervals) and save a little time with a core and shoulder circuit.

Last Friday, I did a chest and triceps workout before swimming and walking in the pool.  Want tired arms?  Do your chest/tri workout then tire yourself with breast stroke.  Yowza!  I plan to do the same workout this Friday.  There’s nothing quite as refreshing as an early swim.

Hopefully I’ll squeeze in another walk with the hubs on Saturday.

Speaking of squeezing…

Squeeze into mah bellay!

I didn’t quite finish all of it, but man was it good!  I don’t know what happened, but a pizza craving hit my like a brick.  I told Kevin we could eat a healthy meal at home Friday and/or Saturday to make up for it, but he needed to take me out.  So worth it!  Like I said, balance, right???
