I set my alarm for 7:00am, but did not even think about getting out of bed until an hour later. The perks of not having to work at 8:00am every morning. I got up, did a little bit of front porch reading, scrambled up some egg whites and spinach for breakfast,
and made a Fed-Ex Kinko's run, all before finally finding the motivation to go workout. It's something about the weather, I'm telling you. Once I got there, though, the time just flew by, and I got in a great workout.
I completed this workout almost exactly, except instead of the rows, I did the incline press, and it was tough, but in the best sort of way. I have also been told that the incline press is a good exercise because it is actually really similar to movements that we make in real life. That may be so, but it still left me with some very tired arms. I also switched up the ab work at the end. Instead of doing the dumbbell side bend, I did two sets of 40 center-left-center-right (10 each direction) crunches on an exercise ball. This switch happened pretty spur-of-the-moment, mainly because I saw someone else doing them during a personal training session. Oops!
After a much-needed shower and an Austin Stone podcast, I headed over to SRD a little bit early so that I could eat lunch over there. If I haven't said it enough, free (delicious) food is just one of the many perks working at SRD this summer. I made myself a grilled chicken salad, topped with olives, tomatoes, and balsamic vinaigrette, and I ate every last bite. I also had a side of red grapes, as well as a serving of carrots and hummus (which I promptly spilled on my white shorts. It is Monday, after all).
Now, onto the exciting news of this post. About a week ago I received an email from Heather at Pretty Muddy. She had an exciting announcement and offer for us. Pretty Muddy was officially announcing their partnership with My FitU. I had never heard of My FitU, but the rest of the email cleared that right up. It is a program created by Daniel Meng, Kenny Chesney's personal trainer, and it "offers one-stop shop for all of your health and fitness needs." I don't know if you have seen a picture of Kenny Chesney, but that information was all that was necessary in order for me to agree to the offer of a free three month trial.
