Work it.

Hi friends!!! Happy Hump Day!
Yesterday I didn’t get around to posting, it was just one of those days my bed & Nashville sounded better:.
I had a morning workout at my BIL gym, I met a friend there. It was a good cardio workout with a variety of different movements with some running mixed in.
Later I got my GPP WOD in, which I wasn’t necessarily planning on doing, because I lack flexibility in my shoulders for them and they are a MAJOR goat of mine.. Same with Brent.. when he got home from work, we decided to man up and face the squat.
Well…. OH squats can kiss it.

After I headed to Ballet Blast again with my friend. It was packed this week! But I felt more confident with the movements and was able to follow along better.
This morning I headed to GPP to coach and watch a few classes gut this workout out!

Kenz was next to me in the workout and we pushed each other to the end.
Done and DONE… So rough, sweaty and uh… sweaty!
I still had some time after before I had to pick up the kids from a friends house so I decided to do a quick run.
By quick, I mean really slow. Specter took all I had today….
3 miles and that was that.

During nap time I decide to take some R & R with some ice cream!
A few of my friends have been fans of Arctic Zero for a while now and I haven’t tried it till today.
Verdict: I really liked it!!! The nutritional stats are not to shabby either! My stomach didn’t hurt afterward either! Win, win!


I didn’t take pics of my food much today, but after coaching a night class I came home and had some fish, green beans with avocado.
On a kid plate. I don’t know why I always eat my food from my kids plates? Probably because my other ones are heavy and huge and theirs are cute and make eating fun?

What was your workout today?
Do you eat off kids plates?
Have you tried Arctic Zero?

Baby got back

 

Well, Hello. Happy Wednesday!

 

I went to bed with fear last night.

Neil, the owner and master trainer of GPP always will post the workout of the day, the night before, so we know exactly what were getting ourselves into the next day. So if you want to follow along, you can check out the workouts {HERE} The explanation of the workout is posted along with video demos of each movement so you can go into the workout with confidence.

I got pretty sore from thrust-o-rama two weeks ago.. and knowing I had 330 squats coming at me today, made me want to hide in a dark hole.

But of course I’m going to go anyway..

Of course I fueled up with some pumpkin oats with two egg whites and extra cinnamon before heading to tackle the WOD.

Lo’ and behold.

The Christmas décor almost made this workout look friendly.

You start with 20 thrusters and 10 ski squats and minus one thruster and add one ski squat until you get to 10 thrusters and 20 ski squats!

The workout was named M&M’s because Janetha from meals and moves made it up! My hip flexors were on fire throughout the workout but I finished! The whole time I was doing the workout I kept singing this.. not sure why it kept popping into my head, but it did. Doing 330 squats, can make you sing crazy things.

After the workout, I had about an hour and a half before I had to be back to GPP to coach the noon class, so I headed over to skills to squeeze in a little cardio but I just wasn’t feeling it. I did a long run yesterday so I decided to give running a rest and focus on my shoulders.. (My legs were toast). So I put together this quick shoulder circuit!

I won’t be able to lift or sit tomorrow. Awesome.

Let me know if you do this workout. My shoulders were on fire!!

Skills has an awesome pro-shop, and I take advantage of it almost daily! They have a good variety of flavors and make some mean post workout shakes.

They also don’t mind customizing a shake either so I had them make me my normal shake.

• 1 scoop protein (elite- chocolate)---> I brought my own protein today.
• 1 scoop blueberries
• 3 frozen strawberries
• water and ice

I’m loving this combo right now! Taste like candy in a cup!

Question of the day:
