NEW ELLIPTICAL!

The hubs and I have been talking for a while now about getting an elliptical. I've had a LOT of success in the past with them and love that they give you a low impact 'run'. I cancelled my gym membership and wanted to get a REALLY awesome elliptical....BUT, knowing just how much ca$h I'd have to fork out I opted for a little ole' cheap thing for the time being. My sister-in-law bought a very inexpensive elliptical a year ago and she's lost 40lbs!!! I'll be happy if the little money we spent leaves me 40lbs. lighter. I've still got my eye on the fancy model and have decided that the awesome one will have to be my reward. 40 minute workout.....check!

The 100

The past few days I've been exercising lightly to get back into the swing of things. I'm feeling like I need to abandon the idea of running another half-marathon....at least for a year and stick to weight training and occasional cardio. Last week I took 3 days and focused on 3 different body areas. Monday I worked on my core area, Wednesday I did upper body, while Friday was lower body. Today I decided to be a little more proactive in my working out and tried The 100 Workout. It KICKED my rear!!....and it felt SO good!! I'm still deciding what I will be doing on Wednesday of this week, but will let you know.

p.s. I had to take some breaks during the crunches and leg lifts, but I'd still say that I did really well and pushed myself harder than I have in a VERY long time!

I got my ME time today!

Core Synergistics.....check! I started with the P90X-lean program today woohoo, feeling good!
