Workout: Upper Fix (3o min DVD)
I was really excited about how well I did on this one. Well, until we got to the planking. My thighs were so sore from the full body yesterday, that I couldn’t plank. The problem wasn’t my arm strength. It was my legs! The big win for this workout was that I was able to use 5 pound weights!! The last time I did any DVD with weights I was only able to use 2 pound weights. So, I was VERY VERY thrilled to be able to use the 5s. I had to document it.
Takeaways:
- Today, I didn’t start eating until after I worked out, which was like 9:30. That is NOT going to work. I MUST start eating earlier. Much earlier.
- Preparation is the key. Each and every day.
- All that working out I’ve been doing has been great, but there are many muscles my body has NOT been using.
