Food poisoning got in the way Wednesday and today (Thursday), but I think I’m set to return tomorrow. Here goes nothing. Again. NO JUDGMENT, OKAY!

WORKOUT OF THE DAY

Warm Up, Tabata: Jump Rope 

Circuit (3 rounds)

10 Goblet Squats 10 Power Deck Squats 10/10 Elevated Wiper Plank  10 Burpees

Yoga by Candace for Low Back & Legs WORKOUT BREAKDOWN

Equipment

15-lb dumbbells: Goblet Squats (two) / Power Deck Squats (one)

Circuit: It lives! And by “it” I mean “I.” I live. Haven’t done this in a while. I didn’t let the timer rule my workout (in anticipation of the suck.) I told myself, "self, take breaks as your heart rate needs, but you will not be done until you complete 3 rounds. AND MAKE THOSE REPS COUNT.” And I did that. (Though, for reference, I'd say the 3 rounds took my around 35 minutes? Or so?) It was actually kind of fun to do, you know, suckiness aside. Now if only I could get some type of consistency going from here on, that would be lovely.

Points for pushing for three. All reps were done alternating sides. My rep counting was all over the place because I was too miserable to count properly.
