वर्कआउट अभ्यास, सेट और निरंतरता उन कई मापदंडों में से हैं जो आपके प्रशिक्षण की प्रभावशीलता को निर्धारित करते हैं। लेकिन टाइमिंग का क्या? क्या सुबह और शाम को वर्कआउट करने में कोई वास्तविक अंतर है? और क्या ये टाइम स्लॉट अपने लाभ और चुनौतियों के साथ आते हैं? यह भी पढ़ें: आर्थोपेडिक डॉक्टर आपके द्वारा की जाने वाली 6 सामान्य वर्कआउट गलतियाँ साझा करते हैं जो जोड़ों में चोट के जोखिम को बढ़ाती हैं पता…

The Food

I meal prepped...thank goodness! ( I gained 2.5 lbs back when I didn't prep one week and ate like crap.) My meal prep is simple and I'll probably stick with it because that's what's working for me right now, so I'm not sure how often I'll post my meals because it will probably always be a combination of the following for the day: 

-Sweet potato, spinach, and turkey hash

-Grilled broccoli and shrimp

-Apple slices

-Carrots

-Grilled chicken breast with spicy glaze sauce

-Romaine salad

The only switch up from the previous weeks is that instead of buying fried chicken wings with the spicy glaze sauce, I purchased the sauce and cut up some chicken breast into strips. Not sure why it took me so long to think of that simple, healthy substitute. 

The Drinks

Pretty much...just water. Every now and then, I have a little bit of lemonade, and just recently, I tried a green tea, but I didn't like that so I only took like 2 sips. Still no Mountain Dew though I'm just counting down the days. 

Exercising

This week, I came up with a routine plan after reading Q&A Wednesday: Creating Your Weight Training Routine. I'll share it in a separate post, but so far my workout this week has been: 

Monday : Lean Leg Pyramid - I cannot believe how much I was sweating from this exercise. Sometimes when you do things like this off of Instagram and such, it turns out to be easy or seemingly not well put together at all, but I enjoyed this one. 

Tuesday: Skate Night  - my legs are still cramping. I also fell for the first time in YEARS and so my I also hurt my wrist a bit. 

Note: Definitely don't want to make the mistake of working my legs one day then going skating the next again lol, but it certainly helped me "chase the burn." 

I love my Black Girls Workout Too DVD, but I'm just not certain about doing the same workout every day, especially since the workout is full body. A week or so ago, I had to take a couple days off because it felt like I had torn or strained something in my shoulder, so...yeah. 

The Workouts

Yes, workouts...plural. I finally hit my goal of completing two workouts in one day. Hopefully, I can continue or at the least, it can become routine.

Sidenote: Does running around with Bear count as exercise? lol
