This morning it was a bone-chilling thirty something degrees....maybe even 29 degrees here in northern CA. I know that temperature doesn't even register as cold for many of you but it's just too dang cold for me to get my butt out of bed at 5 a.m. to go to boot camp class....where we run outside for a portion of the class.
When my alarm went off this morning, I rolled over and buried my head.
Plan B.
I ran three miles at 9 a.m. in 41 degree weather. Much better. Okay, not really but that's what I tell myself anyway.
Workouts are a mandatory part of my life. If only for the reason that I can come home and eat and drink things like this.......
I know....I'm not proud.....but not ashamed either.
Over the Christmas to New Year holiday my boot camp class cancelled classes so I searched my phone for a workout app that would fill in. Workout Trainer is what I found. LOVE it! I do it on my off days from the gym and it's a great workout. There are many different workouts to choose from. I like the President's Victory Workout, which is 18 minutes long and I work up a sweat with it. Then I add another 12 minute upper body workout.
The app talks you through the exercises and there are different degrees of intensity to choose from. This is also a great workout if you travel frequently. There should be enough room in a hotel room to complete the workouts.
Unless, of course, you're staying in a small New York City hotel room and sharing it with three other women....then, not so much.
Link up with anything you’re thankful for! And if you’re not a blogger, just let us know in the comment section what you happen to be thankful for on this day.
I really commend you for getting out of bed and exercising at 41 degrees. I'm trying to make working out a part of my life.
