*QR FIT*

Thursday:

Oof. Just, kinda a shitty day. ☹️ It’s hot AF, people are being jackasses, and I’m just NOT that girl to let it slide today. It is what it is. But, despite all that, I totally got my workout session done! And, that is a big W for ME (the person I need to start putting first in life).

I started with functional strength training, as I like to do. It went a tad longer today but I was kind of rage lifting, so I just stayed with it! 😂 Then, I took that same energy into a cardio kickboxing routine. Very heavy on the cardio! All that kicking and punching was therapeutic and tiring! 😮‍💨 A tired person is usually a calmer person. So again, I just stayed with it and allowed it to drain me. But, of course, staying hydrated during this heatwave!

Wednesday:

And, we’re back! 👋🏽 It’s good to be home and get a good night’s rest in my own house. We had a really great family vacation. We’re already looking at possible spots for next year! Meanwhile, my house is in complete disarray, I have a stack of mail, and don’t even come at me about the state of the lawn. 🫣 Such is life. I’m trying to give myself time and grace to get realigned.

For me, it starts with my fitness! 💪🏽 The scale wasn’t too unkind to me after all the travel. Might’ve even gone down a bit. I’ll take it as a win! I didn’t track while I was gone and I let myself indulge; but when you normally eat pretty clean, your indulges tend to be tame.

Today was my first day back to tracking and working out! I started with a functional strength training routine that hits a bit of everything. You get in all the major muscle groups with compound moves using various tools and weight ranges. Gets the job done in less than 30 mins!

Then, I ran through a cardio Kickboxing workout with my pro gloves! I started the choreography on this right before vacation. I was surprised to see that I already had it to muscle memory! It was 3 kicking and punching combos (on both sides) with HIIT cardio intervals mixed in. It’s a calorie torcher!
