#fatx101

Hitting the afternoon lull ...

and desperately trying to push past it.

I'm not sure what in the hell is going on with me. Every afternoon around 2:00pm until 3:30pm, I hit this wall and all I really want to do is take a nap.

It's not going tohappen, though. I have an indoor cycling (RPM) class to teach this afternoon and then it's yoga (BODYFLOW) right after. I'm a little disappointed, though, because I was really looking forward to doing Zumba this afternoon. Unfortunately, our RPM instructor called in and I'm the only one who can cover. So cycling it is.

And since I haven't checked in lately, let me just give you the run down for this week so you know that I haven't been slacking:

Monday - Elliptical in am, ZUMBA in pm

Tuesday - RPM at 7:00am and RPM at 4:30pm

Wednesday - FatX101, workout #1 (second round) - elliptical 30 minutes

Thursday - RPM, BODYFLOW

Friday - FatX101, workout #2

Saturday - RPM at 7am, BODYFLOW at 9:15am, and ZUMBA at 10:30am

Exercise today was killer, especially since it was a SATURDAY workout. Let's just put it this way: I don't work out on Saturday. Or at least I didn't until now. I'm convinced that it really is essential for me from now on. In fact, I've managed six workout days this week. Yet another first for a long time.

If you follow the link, you can see the video of the workout. Otherwise, this is how it broke down:

Five minute warm-up

Four minute circuit training with the following exercises, 8 reps and 3 rounds

Box Squat Press

DB Bicep Curls

DB Tricep Extensions Overhead

Reverse Crunches

After the circuit, I did a quick 1.5 miles on the elliptical in 13 minutes. This was followed by an hour long yoga class.

After a week of the FatX101 workouts, I must say that I am extremely sore and feel like I've been hit by a truck. But in a good way, if that makes any sense. I must admit, however, that I'm so looking forward to my day off tomorrow.
