Thursday Like A Friday

World's was as crazy as ever today but what a great workout I got in! Met Jen there just after 5 and busted ass for a good 2 straight hours! We started on the treadmills of course where I got in a good 20 minute run after two rest days. I increased the incline and speed ever so slightly so I felt really good about today's run. Still not quite ready to amp up the minutes though...

Today the focus was on back and chest so we started with incline bench dumbell flies. I did these with my usual 10 lb. weights but didn't really feel much of a burn so I think it's time to increase to 15. Next we moved over to where they have the 45 lb. bars. Standing on a bosu ball, we did rows using the bar. This was one of the moves I learned on Monday that I was positive I couldn't do at the time but now it's one of my favs! Once you get the feel for getting on and off the bosu ball while holding the bar, you're golden :)  We followed these with pull-ups, incline ball-catching crunches, and lastly, weighted back extensions.

Taking a much needed day off from work tomorrow so today feels more like Friday to me! Going to try to sleep-in and get in a mid-morning gym sesh tomorrow while its nice and empty!
