Woke up SOOOORE this morning. And not the 'good' kind of sore like you hear people talk about after a great workout 'Man, I am sore, but it feels so GOOD!' ...Huh?! I mean I feel proud of myself that I actually stood up long enough to do 120 jumping jacks over the course of the last 24 hours and the soreness reminds me of that....but I wouldn't really say it feels good. Unless you think getting beaten mercilessly with an empty paper towel roll sounds like it would feel good....in which case I can recommend an awesome therapist.
My excuse for not working out first thing this morning: Cooked my kids a hot breakfast instead of the usual pile of cheerios they prefer.
Kids were acting tired after morning 'school picnic' so I put them down for a nap. Ooh, perfect time for a set!
40 jumping jacks - 1, 2, 3, these are so easy...I don't know why anyone thinks this is work...just like being a kid again 30 *gasp* 31 *pant* 32 so close...I can do it
20 squats - Yes I 'm still too lazy to get up and down more than once
30 crunches - Ponder the triangle shape my abdomen takes as I do crunches. When pregnant with Specs my ab muscle wall split down the middle and has never gone back together. Imagine walking around with a permanent triangle belly..huh..maybe being flabby isn't such a bad thing.
- After crunches I lay on the floor around 5 minutes daydreaming about the snack I'd reward myself with. Okay, lets get these pushups over with.
10 pushups - this carpet really needs sweeping...it's just too bad I'm using all my energy on this exercise. Yeah! That's why my house isn't clean...no time or energy now that I'm getting fit...That's totally it.
While lunch cooked I decided to do a second set. Somewhere between squats and crunches I got permanently distracted by the smell of pizza. It wasn't until supper that it occurred to me I never finished the set. I didn't even stop intentionally, it was more like...squat 19, squat 20, DING Pizza's ready *ARGHrMMgGMEFMDF Yumyumyum*
Kids went to bed and it's time to do a 3rd set. Hubby's sitting on the couch and unless I want to do pushups on the bathroom floor, there's nowhere for me to hide. WH would never laugh at me (well...not in a mean way anyhow) but I still feel really weird working out in front of him. Wish me luck.
Total sets: 2 1/2
