Day 3 Week 1 of the February 30 Day Challenge

The word for today began with....sleepy!! I tossed and I turned and I watched the clock! I was not getting good rest, and 5:55am came so slow it came quick! Haha Even at this moment, I am very tired. I hope to get better rest tonight. Even though I just didn't have the get up and go this morning, I did get up earlier than I used to and got ready for work and got to work on time. I decided to do my workout this evening since I missed my opportunity this morning. I actually could have worked out, but it would not have been as productive as the workout I did this evening. I also felt awesome when I went shopping and bought myself a new skirt...and it was a size 8! I have not worn a size 8 skirt in I can not even remember how long!! Well, here is my workout...

Workout: 12 minute workout with 50 second sequences and 10 seconds between sequences
[do this each one 3 times]
#1 Sand bag shoulder lift and drop [19, 19, 20]
*I used a 10lb weight
#2 1 leg push-up and jump over bag [7, 8, 10]
*I did not have the bag, so I jumped over my yoga mat
#3 10 high knees and 10 mountain climbers [4, 6, 6]
#4 Tuck knees and explosive star jumps [30, 30, 33]

Then I did the next set of sequences once
#1 Star abs (alternate left and right) [25]
#2 Left oblique plank and side drop [17]
#3 Right oblique plank and side drop [20]

I enjoyed this workout. I felt like the first set of exercises got my heart rate going good and the abs cooled me down good.  After shopping this evening I realized that sometimes it is the little efforts that we put into something that give us the biggest results. I may only be working out for 15 minutes a day, but my effort is clearly seen in the clothes that I am wearing and buying! I am so excited to continue to slim down and be healthy with Body Rock!! Here's to Day 4 Week 1 of the February Challenge. Until tomorrow...

April **My word for today is Push through**
