Wednesday's Workout

Today has been a little crazy.

I instantly became a Mother of three!

I'm helping out my sister and brother-in-law while my sister is in Texas for a conference.

It's their spring break so we are playing for the next three days.

Anyways, I haven't done any cardio yet but plan on going on at least a walk today when Little Man wakes up.

I have done those amazing squats that everybody loves so much.

Just to feel that burn in my muscles is amazing.

And try doing them with two kids jumping up on you!

It's even more fun! ;)

I didn't do regular squats though

I had my legs spread about two feet apart.

When you do a squat you want to make sure that your knees don't go over your toes.

It helps if you stick your butt out. 

If you feel the burn and also feel like a dork you are doing them right.

I also decided to do walking lunges since I have been chasing kids all day.

They are great because it requires you to move while you are doing them.

Again, make sure when you are going down into the lunge that your knee doesn't go over your toes.

If you wanted to add a little more to your walking lunge, lift your back leg up as you are standing up out of the lunge.

After you life up your back leg, bring it forward for your next lunge.

Do these all day as you are walking around the house and you will definitely feel it tomorrow in your back side. ;)

I think I am going to add my sit ups and pushups after my walk later too.

Get an all over workout.

Plus I was dead after last weeks workout and I need that especially if I am going to a desk job.

I need something to keep me in shape ;)

and I have a 1/2 marathon coming up plus the ragnar!

Woohoo!

I'm really excited for both and will start posting more about my runs hopefully next week.

My nephew needs money for the summer so I think I'll have him come watch Little Man at night and I'll hit the gym or go for a run around my neighborhood. 

 

 You are the only one that can make excuses for yourself.

It isn't anybody else' fault but yours.

Don't make excuses. Make improvements.

Happy Wednesday!
