I also discovered today that my gym has started charging me again - unhooray! I was hoping to put that off until I come back from LA. It's money that I'll be wasting because I won't have time to get there and back every morning. Yes, I hear you, make time, but it will be nearly impossible for me to do it without a car/lift and still fit in the workout I want. Plus there's the lugging-stuff-around issue. I think I might just quit if I can't suspend it for that long. I know, I love it there, but I've been really enjoying being in control of my own workouts, and I would rather have the money in my own pocket, thankyouverymuch!
I'm really nervous too. Tomorrow is my Skype date with KRISSY KRASH! Holy moly! She's such a legend... I feel a swoon coming on! She wants to talk to me about starting Derbalife over here in Australia. I think it's a great idea, as I could happily live off shakes and smoothies, but I don't know if anyone here would give it a go. I would have to try it for myself and see results before I could endorse it. Plus, I see it as something to improve athletic performance, but I'm not sure if many girls around here are that in to the athletic mindset. Oh well, we can only talk about it and see how it goes. I am beyond excited at this point. KRISSY KRASH!!!!! If you haven't read her blog yet, do yourself a favour.
I was supposed to go to boot camp tonight with a girl from work, but we have both realised that we can't really afford it! Instead I went back to my gym for the first time since my injury. It was swell, and I will go again on Friday, but I truly can no longer afford it. I was restricted by time as the gym was closing soon, but I pounded out what I could and supersetted for time.
•Bike: 15 minute intervals - 7.5k, 165 calories burnt!
•Superset, 3 sets w 15 reps: Seated Row 18kg and Crunches with Medicine Ball Press 5kg
•Superset, 3 sets w 15 reps: Cable Tricep Pull-Down 18kg and Hanging Leg Lifts, body weight
•Superset, 3 sets w 15 reps: Chest Flies and Seated Shoulder Press, on ball, 4kg for both
•Superset, 3 sets each: 21's (bicep curl to waist x 7, waist to shoulder x 7, full curl x 7) 1 set 7.5kg regular grip, 1 set 7.5kg overhand grip (ow!), 1 set 10kg regular grip (different weights from different barbells); Single Leg Lateral Raises, alternate legs, 10-16 reps of 6kg
•Up-Dog 30 seconds, Single Leg Drops 1 set of 10 reps
•2 eggs with 2 tablespoons leftover lentil bake
•coffee
•Grilled chicken breast with stir-fried vegies, nekkid (I can't remember the word for 'no dressing' right now!)
•Apple - also known as Orgasmapple, for their deliciousness
•Half a shake: protein powder, banana, passionfruit yogurt, milk. Something tasted off so I didn't drink the whole thing.
•Tiiiiiiny chicken breast piece w Moroccan seasoning.
The highlight of my day was probably all of it. It was great, I had fun at work, I am getting better at my job and am feeling fit and fabulous! And I had energy at the end of my day to work out, which is highly unusual!
Early a.m. Skype date! Squeee!
