Friday

I worked out everyday this week. Yay for me!

Today was a great crossfit extreme class. We did kind of a circuit training thing. It was awesome! I really felt great afterward.

I said I would do it and I did

I did 30 mins on the elliptical over lunch then I ran 2 miles plus one set of stairs after work. I'm feeling pretty proud of myself and pretty fit.

3 days in a row

I have been on a roll with my exercise routine. Today was another cross-fit extreme day. It was a total body class with the emphasis on legs. Then I did some more yoga tonight to stretch out the stiff spots.

Tomorrow I hope to run. I still have 6 miles for this week. Actually my ideal day would be to do the elliptical over lunch and then run after work at the arena. We are having jambalaya tomorrow from the crockpot so I should have some time before dinner to run.

To end the day

To end the day I decided to do a little yoga. The stretching felt great. And now to bed.

Recumbent bike

Today I needed something different. I needed a break from work and my brain. So I sat and biked 6.5 miles on the recumbent bike (weight loss mode which changes the resistance every 4 minutes) while I read the new magazine that I got last night. Pretty good lunch break.

Class day

Crossfit extreme has started a new rotation. Part of the class focus is the concept of muscle confusion. The teacher tries to change the class about every 4 weeks. We do something different during each day of the week. (class is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) The classes are repeated for four weeks then we start something new. The last few weeks we did Legs on Monday and now we have moved onto shoulders. Great work out that I enjoy most of except all of the pushups.

Sunday

It is the end of the third full week of the year and I finally got all six miles in this week. I did 2.25 miles at the arena today. Felt pretty good. Right now I am just trying to get running done a few times a week. Starting in the middle of February I plan to really add the miles in.
