Okay, so I did not reach my goal this past weekend, not by a long shot. I had a few too many beers Saturday night and between my hangover and my jell-o legs which resulted from an intense series of one-legged, weighted bosu ball deadlifts on Saturday, I didn't even make it an hour in World's on Sunday.
On another note, now that my confession is out, I finally invested in a sweet new pair of running sneaks today! I was torn between a pair of Adidas and a pair of Nike. It was 60% Adidas / 40% Nike (mostly a style decision as I like sneaks with funky colours) but everyone I asked either said Nike or neither so I decided to trust the opinion of my gym rat friends who probably know more about running than I do. Broke 'em in today with a 15 minute run. Could definitely use some more breaking in but I'd say they were a good choice all around!
For weights today I decided on shoulders. I started with 3 sets of 8 arnold press, standing on a bosu and followed these with 3 sets of 10 shoulder shrugs (also on the bosu). Next I did 1 set of pull-ups but could only do 4 reps (seriously falling behind on these!) so I opted for 3 sets of 6 assisted pull-ups to finish out the move. Next I moved on to abs where I started with 3 sets of 8 stability ball leg lifts and followed these with 4 sets of 16 incline crunches (front and side-to-side) and lastly, 3 sets of 8 tee pees, kneeling on the stability ball between each set.
Pretty good Monday workout! I finished up with some all-over stretching on the mats and incorporated some yoga moves I hadn't done in a while including the ever-popular headstand. Always afraid I'm going to end up upside down with my shirt over my head when I do that one haha.
