DAY 67: GYM TIME!!!!

Hey Yall!!!!

I got in the gym this week! And the following pictures are about my leg day.  But before I get into all of that I have decided that I want to be consistent with my posts and I know every evening is not going to work at this moment since work has got much more busy with me being team leader and doing private art lesson.  I will be posting on MONDAYS, WEDNESDAY AND SATURDAYS!!!! I plan to have a few new recipes but since I have been  busy I have been doing the standard healthy food that is simple.  Things like chicken or fish and veggies and sometimes pair that with brown rice or a sweet potato!!!!

ANYWAY!!!! My legs are killing me still but that shows that I am doing something and putting in some work hahahaha! I am going to start my boxing classes sometime next week so I really look forward to that and heard it is a great workout as well!!!!

Here are some of the leg workouts I did in case you are getting ideas.

I did a Plie Squat with a Row.  This means I did a squat but I had a 12 lb weight in each hand and brought them towards my chest as I lowered into my squat.  That way I worked upper body and lower body.  Look it up and you should be able to find some picture on it.  I found it in the February issue of Oxygen magazine.

I started with interval training this day!  I walked on an incline to warm up for a while but then ran as hard as I could for 30 seconds and then regular pace to catch breath for 30 seconds and repeated for about 15 minutes.  I ran 2.2 miles when I did this!  I worked up a sweat as if I was on it for an hour!  My hair was GONE!!!! So look up interval training! Great way to get your cardio in and it is effective.  Only do this 2-3 times a week.

Working out my legs!

Take a look at the machines because I don't know the names of them.  I will do better and get that information next time.  I did 3 sets of 12 on all of them.  Sometimes I do a burnout which means you just do as many as you can until you just can't any more.  Last one , I hold as well just to get a little extra burn!

One of my fav's!  Inclined leg press, hope I put the right name :)
