New Years Day

It's been a few days since I posted so I'll have to try and think of what I've done since. On Sunday I did 45 minutes on the treadmill, switching back and forth between walking and running again, mostly doing 90 second intervals. Then I warmed up for 20 minutes before doing Lisl's 1 hour spin class. Definitely a hard day. I topped it off by doing 20 minutes of the Jillian Michael's wii game while Phil was out riding.

Monday, I did Sam's 1 hour spin class, in the back row with Luc. Lisl and Sam teach so differently and so they are like totally different workouts. In Sam's class it is a lot more about power.

Tuesday was a 30 minute workout with Mitch. I warmed up for 20 minutes first on the treadmill, mostly walking, adding in incline, but I did do 2 (90 second) runs. With Mitch, I did a reclined leg press(hard), hack squats one leg at a time, standing then squatting on an upside down bosu (that thing was rocking like crazy but I never fell down!). We flipped the bosu upright and I rested my hands on the bar of the squat rack, then jumped one leg then the other onto the upright bosu, sort of like the legs part of the "Iron Mike". then it was straddle on the weight bench, barbell across my shoulders, stand up then slowly sit onto the weight bench. The final exercise was sort of like a plie while holding a large (20#?) dumbell in my hands.

After the workout I had to get weighed and body fat measurement taken. Weight: 200#. Body fat: 29.3. UGH! My goal is to lose 12 pounds over the next month.

I have been very strict with my diet as well. Only eating healy except for yesterday when I had maybe about 2 handfuls of sun chips and about a cup of bread pudding.

That's it for now....
