more workouts to post. monday after my ub/cardio routine i did 20 min of low impact easy level work with ea active. mostly upper body, some lower and cardio that didn't require running or hopping. i finished with stretch max segment 1
yesterday i did 30 min of cardio with wii fitness coach stretched on my own. in the pm did ea active easy athlete in you then later on i did the gym thing. didn't have time in the afternoon but let viola go to the pool and i did 35 min of steady state on the elliptical did 4 sets of 10 on the leg presses(changing the foot pattern to hit a different angle) and an astonding 225. i didn't think i could hack that LOL i did various squat positions with a 35lb barbell and 15lb kettlebell. then did some serious stretching.
this morning was a little rough to get going. i really wasn't in the mood for yoga so i did 15 min of wii fitness coach flexiblity then felt okay enough to give some core work a shot with APX(all pump exterme) core section and the stretch. i was pondering getting rid of APX but i might not now. i love the core work plus i could use the leg workouts at home. i want to keep leg work at the gym to a minimum b/c i really don't need to build much in the lower body, its natural there. as long as i keep up running or elliptical my legs do well(i know they say you can't build muscle with cardio but running or any lower body intense cardio has my legs built!) so will stick with lighter weights at home and do leg presses and smith machine squats when i feel the need at the gym. really want to focus on more strength for upper body and core but get good muscle definition in overall body.
anyway keeping is so-so had a pig out monday night and pizza last night but only kept it to two slices. i order mushrooms and onions with garlic. for my second piece and cut one of my veggie slices in half and halfed a meatball slice and made one piece out of that then lots water after that. i saved my veggie until after my workout though otherwise eating lots of salad at lunch keeping breakfast light(since i eat early for lunch at work) then snacking on fruit after work before i run errands or go to the gym. some days i will have some milk as well with my fruit. overall getting better. eyeing my portions a bit better too.
off to work! 7 more days
