Almost made some changes today
Last night my wife and I went out child free and spent some time at work at the yearly casino night that takes place after tax season ends. We both had a great time and it was nice to have some conversation with other adults that didn't have to do with work. This morning we didn't have our daughter with us since she spent the night at her grandparent's house so we both were able to "sleep in". I woke up at 7:30 grabbed a glass of water and headed to the office for a little Stretch X followed by Ab Ripper X. I was about 20 minutes through and was listening to Whitney in the kitchen and decided that I didn't want to miss time with her so I made the decision to forgo the rest of the video and move Ab Ripper X to the next day. Well things changed, I didn't have to go pick up Haley so I finished the stretching and even got Ab Ripper X in while Whitney was in the shower. I decided that I was going to move the intensity up as much as I could, I didn't hold weights because I am not 100% convinced that it does all that much for me but I did keep my arms up for all the moves that I could, I did the cross leg rather than the wide leg sit ups, and I did most of the leg climbers without grabbing my leg at all. The cross leg sit ups didn't look all the pretty and I only able to get to 19 rather than 25 but it did at a good burn and I did get to 25 leg climbers but three of them I needed to grab my leg to get up. This time through I was able to get all 50 mason twists so that was a win. I am really considering buying some ankle weights to make the ab workouts even more intense but that is something that is going to wait until some more important things get purchased first. The day after Legs and Back I am a little sore but nothing like last week, I can actually walk and get in and out of my car with little effort which was not the case last week. I chalk it up to not having ran when I was done with my workout like I did last week. Tomorrow is Back and Biceps and I am going to really work to get the number of reps up and get more pull ups done, weather permitting I also plan on running two miles after the workout to really get a good Sunday workout in but that might change depending on the weather and how the day goes out. I really need to weed an re-mulch the front and mow the lawn if it dries out enough for me to do so. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
