Holy Crap! Less than a week to go!
Today was my second "doubles" day and I have to say I was pretty nervous about the "doubles" option. You are supposed to complete two workouts each day, each at a different time. I've chosen to do my first workout at 6:00AM before I get ready for work so that I can drink a full glass of water, workout and then eat breakfast and head to work. I know there is a big debate about working out on an empty stomach or not but for me, I feel nauseas if I try to work out after I've eaten so this works best for me. I hadn't done a morning workout in a LONG time and I was feeling pretty bad for myself having to get up early to work out. Little did I know that getting up 45 minutes early really doesn't make a whole hell of a lot of difference to my morning routine and in no way does it affect my energy level throughout the day. In fact, I've felt more energized during the first half of my day.
My second workout I do at my normal time right after work. Again, this works best for me because I usually get 45-60 minutes by myself at home before my boyfriend gets home. Don't get me wrong, I would still work out if he was home before me, I just like having a little bit of time all to myself where I get to focus on me. It's a guilt-free way to be selfish.
The first day of "doubles" was nice because it combined one of the hardest workouts with one of the easiest ones. Todays workout was two challenging ones: Arms and Cardio. My two weakest areas. I was kind of dreading Cardio Fix all day at work today but now that it's over, I really do feel refreshed. It's amazing what working out can do for you! Tomorrow is Legs and new exercise called 10 Minute Fix for Abs so I'm excited to see what it's all about.
To health and happiness and my first new workout in 16 days,
Jordana
