03/20/12 - I went to the gym with the thought that I would work the weight machines and get a strength training day in....boy was I wrong. The beefy meat heads were swarming the weights and looked at my like I had 8 legs when I walked that direction. I tried not to pay attention to the fact I was the only female in that portion of the gym and proceeded to use the machines I wanted to use...changing the setting for 60 lbs to 30 and from 100 to 40....lol (I'm sure the meat heads were thrilled with THAT). Anyway, I got through about 1 1/2 sets and the machines I needed were ALL full, so I said "screw it" and went upstairs thinking I could walk/jog on the treadmill for a while. Plan B didn't pan out either. My ankle was giving me hell and I just couldn't do the treadmill, so I opted for the eliptical....my ever loved "Plan C". It worked out and I got my work out in either way, so I was content.
03/21/12 - First thing in the morning I could barely walk on my ankle so I sent Kathy a text asking her if it was possible to modify tonight instead of being on the treadmill and explained. She had a plan all in place when I arrived 15 minutes late :( We did 3 sets of each group of exercises....everything from squats with an overhead press to walking pushups to planks to bent flies....it was pretty intense and it was DEFINITELY the strength training I'd been craving. The whole drive home and the rest of the evening I was moaning and groaning every time I moved. My pecs, my arms, shoulder, abs, lats, core, EVERYTHING HURTS! But it's a good hurt and I love it!!
Today is Thursday and will more than likely be my Yoga day at home. Going out for dinner tonight with Chad and the kiddos. My goal for today is healthy choices and Yoga :)
Breakfast - Oatmeal, Banana, Tea
Snack - String Cheese, Clementines
Lunch - Pasta salad (see previous entry for ingredients), apple
Snack - String Cheese, Clementines
Dinner - Chili's.....the best healthy choice I can find :)
