Today has been a pretty fantastic day so far! I was awake at 8am, had my breakfast by nine and got ready to start the day. I went downstairs, finally did the litterbox, helped Jan move all the christmas boxes downstairs (ya I know, it's February) and then jumped in the shower to get ready for the gym. When I got out of the shower, I did up the few dishes in the sink, got my stretches done and headed out the door only to find that I had to shovel my way out of the driveway and into the car.
So, I grabbed the shovel and started removing the snow. By the time I was done, I really didn't feel like going to the gym anymore, but I thought, I didn't spend all this time preparing for the gym not to go. I jumped in the car, and on my way I went.
I figured I would try and give my feet a little bit of a rest today so I started off on the bike. I alternated between various levels in 30 min and wound up burning 172 calories. I think that's so far the best that I have done on the bike. I still wasn't completely satisfied with my workout so I thought, maybe I will go on the treadmill for a little bit. I started off at a 2.4 speed at a 6.5 incline and then went from there. I wound up doing a 3.7 speed for 2 min near the end and hit my cool down. I wound up burning 185 calories there in 23 min for a total of 357 calories burned. All in all it was a pretty good workout and now that it is done, I am ready to just relax for the rest of the evening. :)
Yesterday I didn't wind up going to the gym, however, I did do my stretches and I think I managed to do the plank for about 45 seconds, and about 50 ab crunches. At least I did something yesterday. Tomorrow I am hoping to get to the gym for an hour at least, maybe I will be there for a little bit longer, who's to say? But for now, I am going to go and relax and spend the evening in peace. :)
