Life Lyn Style

So, Tuesday I usually do a trainer workout with Chelsea in the morning.  Last week, there was also a biggest loser workout in the evening.  Two workouts was also the plan for today.

But, my one year old got sick and so today’s plan was thrown out the window.  We spent the morning at the Dr and picking up medicine for an earache.  Luckily, my scheduled sitter was still able (and willing) to come tonight, so I made it to the BL workout.

I did 20 minutes on the elliptical before the workout.

Jeff, Rich and Emily (my Friday trainer) ran this workout.  It was GREAT!  It definitely ranks up their with the BOSU BL workout a couple of weeks back.

We did some group warm up exercises that involved getting from one end of the court to the other and back.  Then, they broke us up into groups and we rotated through an upper body, lower body and core workout.  We finished with a few more group cardio things and some stretching.

I was glad to get a workout in.  I was extra glad it was a good workout.

Today’s SPIN class was great per usual.  Unfortunately, my daughter has a fever and has not had the best day.  With hubby out of town, my schedule is in a state of flux.

I’m super glad that I made it to class today, since both scheduled workouts for Tuesday are in jeopardy.

To top it off, I gained 4 pounds at the Biggest Loser weigh in.  Too much crap food doesn’t equal good weigh in.

We (the kids and I) headed to the J after church this morning.  We didn’t get there until after 10, but I was able to get in a good cardio workout before rushing home for lunch/naps.  There’s a small window of happy kids before they turn into terrors when they are too hungry and too tired.

I worked out on my own today.  10 min bike, 5 min hand cycle, 30 min elliptical.  It was a good and painless workout.

I’ve lost of bit of my mojo on the food stuff lately.  I am down inches for sure, but not really down in pounds.  I’m expecting to gain at the biggest loser weigh in tomorrow.  I need to “get with the program” and take off some more pounds.  I feel great for the most part, but that won’t get me to a healthy weight.

I didn’t spin this morning or do the cardio dance class this afternoon.  I had planned to meet up with a friend at the gym at 6:30pm.  I’m not really an evening exerciser, but this plan fit my schedule well today.

It snowed most of the day and despite the road conditions and the fact that my friend had to cancel, I went to the gym.  I didn’t have a stellar workout, but did manage to sweat for a bit.

I did a hodgepodge workout consisting of 10 min on the bike, 10 min on the elliptical, 3 min on the stair master, a set of squats with an 8 pound medicine ball and a set each of leg press, triceps, biceps, leg curl, adduction and abduction machines.  I was mostly trying out the new equipment while it wasn’t busy.

The drive home was much better than the drive to the gym.

Looking forward to a fuller workout in the morning.
