Workout(s):
6:45 AM: Got up to walk the dog - 1.5 miles on the Greenway in the pouring rain.
5:30 PM: Post-60-minute workout and feeling great. Took a cold bath after last night's workout and didn't experience any stiffness today. The cardio parts are the toughest on me. I love the resistance and the balance board. There were 4 handles on my piece of equipment today (instead of 2). I had been thinking it would be a good idea to have easy access to 2 separate bands when doing the circuit training that we are currently doing. The 4 handles allowed me to use the higher-resistance red bands whenever we worked a stronger muscle or the lower-resistance yellow band handles when we worked a weaker muscle. When you are doing 30 second intervals, it is impossible, to stop and unclip/clip handles to change your resistance. The extra handles allowed me to get a better workout.
Meals For Today:
Breakfast: Oatmeal and Coffee with Fat-Free Vanilla CoffeeMate
Snack: Bran Muffin (mom's recipe) and blueberries
Lunch: Leftover Homestyle Tuna Casserole
Snack: Baby Carrots, String Cheese and Pretzels
Dinner: It's Friday night, don't judge me... Chipotle Fajita Chicken Burrito (no sour cream, no guac) and a Mr. Pibb
Total Water: 96 oz
Total Calories According to Calorie Count: 2383
I believe in having a weekly cheat meal (and I am a firm believer in not cooking on Friday nights, I need a break). I will try hard not to make it into a "cheat weekend."
