These are seriously the most challenging crunches for me.
Knees up.
Toes pointed.
Fingertips on edges of ears.
Pulse for 15.
Crunch for 15 without head touching floor.
Hold for 15.
Repeat 5 times.
No rest.
3 - 5 sets depending on how long Jaru lets me be on the floor without him.
Reach through side planks? HATE THEM HATE THEM HATE THEM! But hell...I do them do them do them. Often. UGH!
Weighted lunges and squats? When I'm doing them I constantly think:
But I do them because I am vain.
I do the majority of my workouts before I get dressed in the mornings before I brush my teeth. I have some hot water and lemon, eat a banana and then a cup of coffee. Then...strength stuff. Then...I drink as much of the water in my water bottle as possible. Complaining. I do them in the mirror so I can see myself and make sure my form is good because if I'm not doing them right...it doesn't work. I fight with my brain every second and tell myself, "Self...this is some bullish!" But I keep going cuz hell...I know I have to do it.
Then...second cup of coffee, bath, etc.
Then...breakfast.
And then...it's okay to speak to me.
Barely.
I'm not on any type of schedule per se. After years of knowing what I need to do...I just do it. I get bored quickly so I'm always looking for something new to do and sign up for different stuff all the time just to make sure I keep it mixed up enough for my random as heck brain.
I still don't like running so I still don't run. Sometimes I'll do sprints during my walks or on the treadmill but I feel like that's not really running so I don't count it as running. LOL! Most of the time it's just to race Robby.
I love hiking because it's not boring and we tend to do a quick clip pace when we hike to keep our heartrate up.
And I weigh myself EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. I know the size I like to be and if I tip past that...I adjust. DAILY.
I was just talking to someone who does the majority of her workouts at home too or out at the school near her home. She was saying that she enjoys those workouts more than group classes or going to the gym even as she knows she has to go to the gym sometimes, especially when it gets cold.
What about you?
Do you do any of your workouts at home and outside or are you a gym person mostly?
