No Surprises

It's really no surprise that I slept in this morning and missed the Zumba class.  I was absolutely exhausted after this week.  So, after eating some egg beaters and "soysauge" (my fave!) for breakfast, I watched Michael Phelps, Natalie Coughlin, and my favorite swimmer, Aaron Peirsol swim at the Pan Pacs on TV, and I put on the old standby workout, Turbo Jam.

20 minute workout
40 minutes of Turbo Sculpt using my new pink weights!

Let's make a deal ...

Just a few days in and I'm already making bargains and cutting corners with my workout plan.  Allow me to explain ...


It's 10:30pm, I was tired but not ready to sleep.  I ate well today but let's face it ... I wasn't perfect.  So, I decide I would do turbo jam again.  I put on my workout clothes, get out the socks and my running shoes ... aaaand go on facebook.  20 minutes pass by, I look at my socks and shoes and refused to put them on.  I just couldn't stand the thought of wearing socks!  It's summer and I wanted to stay barefoot.  


So, I made a deal with myself.  No socks, no shoes ... YOGA!!


today's workout: The Biggest Loser - Weight Loss Yoga


Don't let yoga for "chubby people" fool you, it's not for the faint at heart ... I've done some yoga and have done quite well but this is unlike any other!  It has the basics - downward dog, triangle, child's pose, warrior one, two, is there three?  Then he demands planks and pushups until your muscles are squealing in agony ... and that's just level one!

This DVD will definitely be making it into the rotation ... especially on those days where this California girl can't bear to wear socks

Couch Potato? Where?

I love TV just as much as the next person and today I didn't feel much like venturing away from my tv or the couch.
