Today, I was barely able to get out of bed, so unlike me but I managed. While I attempted to get the children ready for school, I picked up the 10 pound weights and did some leg work at home while the kids at breakfast.

3 sets of Squats
3 sets of Dead Lifts
3 sets of Pilate Squats
3 sets of Calf Raises
3 sets of Lunges
3 sets of arm curls (30)
3 sets of Tri-ceps (15)

Something about going into the gym just pumps me up and get me motivated so as I dropped my daughter off at school, I was on my way.

My workout started with a treadmill run warmed up walking 3.5 for 3 minutes. Increased my speed to 6.0 for 10 minutes, 6.5 for another 10 minutes and 6.8 for another 10 minutes. Finished the workout with the speed at 6.0 to bring it to the end.

Sweating from head to toe, I decided to do more floor workout before I went home

3 sets of Tri-cep dips off the bench (15)
3 sets of Push-Ups on the floor the big girl way (10)
5 sets of Ball crunches (20)

Feeling like I am on the right track again. Yeah

spin class 9/16/10

This morning was my spin class. I just love the instructor teaching but not her voice, this class involves so many different things hills standing and sitting, isolations, 123, hovers speed work sitting and standing and on and on. I really work it out hard today after being disappointed by the scale earlier. I guess that will always push me to work harder lol. Never thought that I could find a better instructor since I left Oregon but yeah I did. So far this move with the family has proven to be a better move for everyone involve. I just need to regroup, refocus and go back to my better habits that I had before I moved here. I know I can and it shall be done.
