Positive Thoughts

Workouts this week were good!

As you know, during the Best Body Bootcamp, we have to pick two goals each week.  My goal to eat dinner at home has stayed the same for the first few weeks of Best Body Bootcamp but I changed up the 2nd goal.

For the first 2 weeks I had a goal to be in bed by 11 PM and I accomplished that most nights.  For the next few months it might not be something I can do so I’m changing it up.

Week 2 Best Body Bootcamp & Personal Training

This is week 2 of Best Body Bootcamp & my personal training with Tina of Best Body Fitness.  Totally loving it so far.

I am so glad that I decided to grab her 8 week plan because I was kind of stumbling and not really sure which way to go with workouts. They were getting old and boring and when it came to strength workouts, I know I needed to add them in on a consistent basis.

But my eyes glazed over when I saw different strength training workouts and I was never sure which workouts would be best for me.  I am excited to do these workouts and try to do better every time.

This Is How We Do It

The first week of  the Best Body Bootcamp over at Best Body Fitness has come to a close.  I’m ready for week 2.  Although I had a fall off the Bosu this week and needed to take 2 days off, my trainer, Tina was able to help me move my workouts around.

The only big workout I missed was a spin workout and made up for some of that yesterday.  AND I made up for Thursday’s workout today.

I love the fact that I kept going and worked around it.  I am really liking the variety of workouts that Tina has given me to do over the next 8 weeks.  Let’s do this!

Yikes! What a Week

Oh my am I totally embarrassed at this weeks workouts (I did ONE).  But nothing I can do to change it now except to try harder this week. And with my new online personal training and Best Body Bootcamp starting this week, I AM going to make it happen.  I am going to make the best of the next 8 weeks and beyond.  I have so many big goals I need to meet.

So this week didn’t start out good with workouts and I did have good intentions to make it better BUT we had a big set back this past Friday when our kitty broke and fractured his leg. Ever since then we have been tending to him after he had a major surgery Friday night.  Picked him up Saturday afternoon and have been trying to get into a routine.  He will be confined to a dog crate for the next 6-8 weeks (almost as long as the bootcamp). Then he’ll have another surgery to remove the pin in his leg and yet another recovery after that. [Read more...]

 

HIIT Training: Get the Scoop

Ever heard of HIIT training?

It stands for High Intensity Interval Training and from what I have read it’s the best type of workout to burn the most fat. Sweet, count me in!

 

I have made up my own fast workout before and it was a good workout but I like to have a plan to follow so I’m excited to be able to share with you some various HIIT workouts today.

Not As Planned

This week definitely didn’t go as planned AND my exercise every day in February streak went out the window.  I had every intention to do something every day this month but that just didn’t happen.

However I did well with some type of exercise 22 days in a row so I am really proud of that. Thanks Lynn at Traveling Low Carb for the challenge.

So here are my workouts for the week…
