Happy Monday morning! Here's to a productive week for all of us! I know that I have quite a bit to get done in the way of school work this week, so I am hoping that waking up early and getting my workout done will help to start my week off on the right note. I have quite a bit of reading, paper writing and studying to do this week, and I did not get quite as much done over the weekend as I had hoped. Luckily I only have one class today from 11-12 and the rest of my day is completely free, other than working the desk from 2-4 this afternoon.
Workout + Breakfast
I woke up ravenous this morning and I knew that a good workout wouldn't happen if I was so hungry, so I ate a small yogurt breakfast before biking over to Gregory Gym to swim a little over a mile. The pool seems to be so popular these days, I am always having to share a lane and you know how I feel about sharing lanes! I feel like I always have to share a lane with someone who really ripples the water and leaves me swallowing a huge gulp of pool water every time I go to breathe!
Everyone needs a Monday morning laugh - my friend Erin and I in our summer league swim team days! |
After I dried off and bundled up, I biked back to SRD and headed down to the fitness center where I completed the following leg workout:
Exercise | Weight | Reps | Sets |
Squats | 18 lb bar | 100 | 1 |
One-legged leg press | 75 lbs | 15 each leg | 3 |
Step-Ups | 20 lbs | 15 each leg | 3 |
Kick-back machine | 87 lbs | 15 each leg | 3 |
Lunges | 20 lbs | 18 | 3 |
Wall Sit | Body weight | 60 seconds | 3 |
Calf Raises | Body weight | 36 | 6 |
*The exercises in blue means all the sets were completed back-to-back
It was TOUGH! Those wall sits especially left my legs shaking and I am pretty positive that I will be feeling that workout tomorrow morning!
