Keepin’ It Fresh | Weekly Workouts
Hi friends – I hope you had a relaxing weekend and positive start to the new week.
I slept a ton this weekend; it was glorious! I also got my first awful sunburn of the season. Sunburns are one of my pet peeves, so I was completely furious at myself. I am religious about SPF, but Sunday afternoon when P and I hit up the track for a workout, I skipped my shoulders. Blame taken and I am paying for it. I tried a new trick of soaking a cold wash cloth with apple cider vinegar and then slathering the burn with coconut oil; I’m hoping the outcome isn’t two-year tan lines as I have suffered before.
Rant over. Last week’s workouts weren’t too shabby: 3 gym workouts 2 outdoor workouts.
Workouts | Week of April 20
Notes:
1. Monday’s 25 toes-to-bar made my chest SO sore! I was still sore by Wednesday, but did 20 more.
2. I did A LOT of lunges this week: 100 weighted @ 40lbs. left my left glute ridiculously sore and Sunday’s 500 bodyweight walking lunges were just nutty.
3. Incline treadmill workouts are legit.
4. One of the highlights of this week’s workouts was picking up a pair of New Balance Fresh Foam Zante running shoes for a Facebook & Twitter campaign.
