Morning meltdown 15 and 16
Bundled up to walk four blocks for my lunchtime gym session. I won this bottle in a raffle at my Weight Watchers meeting!
Well. I went to the gym over lunch and got in a walk and some weights. My coach gave me leg workouts to do and I only made it through 2 sets when he wanted 3. He told me not to rush through them but to make them super slow sets. Let me tell you - that sucked. Especially when I had to do single legs. Which is why I could only make it through 2 sets. Hopefully I’ll make it through all 3 next time.
Then I get back to work and of course my work crush is standing there talking to my teammmate and I look like crap. So I sweatily run and change into my work clothes but oh well. Like me for me, what can I say.
A little treadmill walking over lunch to help get me through this Monday!

What are you doing at lunch break? My idea of this free time is doing 15min workout using as many muscles as it's possible. You may want try this method!
Workout On Your Lunch Break
If there's a gym within five minutes from your office, then consider yourself lucky. With a 60-minute lunch break, all you really need is 30 minutes to get in an effective daily workout. "A lot of people think that they need to spend hours in the gym, sweating their heads off to get a good workout-this is not necessarily the case," says Declan Condron, certified personal trainer and co-creator of the PumpOne FitnessBuilder iPhone app.
Have 30 minutes but not sure how to properly use it? Condron suggests doing two back-to-back workout routines without resting in between sets. "You could do a dumbbell squat, then go right into doing a dumbbell chest press. This saves time and allows you to get more done in that short period," he adds.
Head Outside for Your Workout Routines If the gym is too far, you can still get in an effective daily workout by power walking, jogging, or running a few sets of stairs. "Run the stairs for five minutes, then follow that with some body-weight squats, push ups, dips and sit ups. Repeat that three times for a total of 30 minutes," suggests Condron. Keep in mind that if you're using your lunch break for fitness, you should prepare and bring a healthy meal to work.
Workplace Exercise Programs Another idea is to rally a few of your colleagues to chip in for in-office yoga or Pilates. Many instructors will happily instruct a small group in the conference room or another space. You'll have to check with your company for approval of workplace exercise programs.

This sucked so hard. I died multiple times! I don't know what the hardest part was but it all sucked. My buddy came up with this he is hands down a beast. I need to get on that level. I couldn't finish the sit ups I got to 50.
