WOW!! I cannot believe I am writing this blog this early in the day! My day started with my alarm going off at 6:10am and 6:20am...like normal. However, today...like the last 2 days...all I could think about was working! I "contemplated" with myself for the better part of 50 minutes before finally realizing that if this was going to happen I needed to get my butt out of bed and get moving! I had not looked at the workout for today yet because I usually do that at night. However, my love is going back to work Sunday :( and I didn't want to interfere with out plans for this evening by having to workout first. (Not that he would have minded!) So...I did it! I made the decision to get up and do the 800 rep challenge this morning and OMG I have so much energy right now! I feel like I am on an endorphin high!! And, it feels great! I was even up throughout the night with both of my loves who did not feel good, and still got up and did my routine! If that's not motivating I don't know what is!! So, without further delay...here is the workout!
Workout: 800 Rep Challenge (Time each session and do twice)
#1 25 Push ups [ 48 seconds, 50 seconds ]
#2 100 High knees [ 32 seconds, 33 seconds ]
#3 25 Tuck jumps [ 43 seconds, 38 seconds ]
#4 100 High knees [ 33 seconds, 33 seconds ]
#5 25 Squats [55 seconds, 51 seconds ]
#6 100 High knees [32 seconds, 31 seconds ]
#7 25 Tricep curls [42 seconds, 37 seconds ]
*I did not have the equalizer bar this workout, so for this exercise I did tricep extensions with a 5lb weight in each hand, bend your knees and extend your arms behind you. I did both arms at the same time.
I feel so good right now! I hope this will motivate me to do my workouts in the morning for the last week of this challenge. I also noticed that the first thing I grabbed was not a chocolate granola bar like I have done all week...but instead, I grabbed a bag of apple slices and a glass of water! Way better for me! :) Remember, you are your biggest motivator and biggest fan...so give yourself some support and get moving!! Try a morning workout and let me know how it affected you!! Here's to Day 1 Week 4!! Until Monday...
April **My word for today is Decision**
