Tuesday:

Happy Tuesday! It was a fairly busy day with course work, college forms (international student style 😵‍💫), financial planning and every day responsibilities. However, I did manage to put in more than an hour in my home gym! Which, I consider a big win. 🙂

I started off today’s session by wearing my new fitness necklace from SleekFit! I got in on Etsy. It’s supposedly sweat, tarnish, and water proof. It feels lighter than you’d think! And, it doesn’t hit you in the face. Plus, I love the cute little dumbbell charm/clasp. It doesn’t really serve any function; other than it made me feel extra tough during my weight training session! But, I put in just over 40 mins and it held up quite nicely. 💪🏽

I then tried wearing it for my HIIT session; which I felt was a real test of its wearability. It worked out surprisingly well! I never felt like it was bouncing around or distracting me. I did 40 second intervals with 30 seconds recovery. I ended up doing about 35 minutes + cooldown and stretching. 🧘🏽‍♀️

Monday:

Happy Monday to all that participate! 😊 It was a busy and sore start to my week. I’m still feeling my workout from Friday after the Thursday night concert. So, my plan was to take it a bit easier on the weights.

It was easier by just a bit. 😂 I did about 35 minutes of actually weights and 5 minutes of warmup and cooldown/stretch. I’m not sure if my body will notice that slight pullback, but it was there.

I then did about 35 minutes of cardio kickboxing! I did 3 rounds of kicking and punching combos on each side. I decided to take out the HIIT intervals I had between sides; it was getting too hard to keep that up after the weights. 😣 I was still feeling it, though! My Xtend hydration definitely came in handy today for sure.
