Yes, I know I have already posted an update of my workout so it's not entirely "Wordless Wednesday" but I figured I would wrap up the night with a shot of my dinner - something I will have to get VERY used to eating over the next 8.5 weeks! Delicious romaine, spinach, onion, cucumber, carrot, grilled chicken in a light dressing. Now time to watch So You Think You Can Dance!!!!
After this morning's chest & back workout I will be surprised if I am not feeling it tomorrow. It was a great workout! I added in a bit more chest and back work and removed the couple of arm exercises. I will do arms on a separate day now, since they aren't something I need to focus on as much anyways. Plus, there is the bonus of they naturally get worked with good back and chest moves anyways. I was even super energized and added in some plyometric drills in between sets. Yep, I am nuts! So here was today's madness - enjoy reading my pain!

It’s kind of funny. I become a certified personal trainer and the first workouts I turn to this week come from someone else. The book came in for me at the library last week and, after flipping through it, I couldn’t wait to give the circuits a go. Making The Cut includes a lot of […]
