I love PEACE! It’s been crazy around our house the past 4 days due to the snow and snow days. Thankfully the kids are back in school today~ Awww….the PEACE!!
Cycle day 3 was yesterday and I’ve come to realize that it’s typically a “tired” almost “sick” feeling day for me. I think the hormone levels coupled with blood loss can make me feel pretty ICK! Anyhow…today is better, my MOJO is rising and I have a bit of focus again! I did get a workout done yesterday at the gym…it was a good escape!
Here’s the workout:
Warm up elliptical- I actually did intervals for 9 mins
Bench
45×20
25push ups
95×10
20 push ups
ABS
9x10x4 or 5 more sets
15 push ups

Incline flys
30’sx10x3sets
paired with
tricep push downs
80×10
95×10
80×10
Posedown bicep curls
30×15
40×10
40×10
paired with
2sets cable flys and stretching
Cardio- boxing drills in aerobics room, approx 20 mins
I am still struggling with my butt, but I’ve decided with the prodding of my DH, to try and just “leave it alone” for a week or so…meaning- NO STRETCHING, RUBBING, POKING, TESTING etc… I have a tendency to constantly fiddle with my injuries- which may lead to them not being allowed to “rest” and heal. So that’s my new idea for the week on it :hehe:
Today’s focus is Balance, so my plan is to do several balance type exercises during my leg workout. My MMA class got canceled for today, so I’ll be doing a small leg workout and running at the gym instead. I plan to go this afternoon.
I also plan on catching us up with our Just Do it posts:
Day 15 Diet
Day 16 Balance
Keep workin’ it and stay focused!!
PEACE OUT,
Michelle
