I was tired today but I got it done, that is all that matters 🙂 Tomorrow is Core/Cardio Circuit then Sunday will be my next ST day. One week from today we leave, I am starting to get really excited as I pack and shop for more outfits. My shopping trips are just so different that the last time I was preparing to visit this region of the Mediterranean and I was so very overweight. Some times it does not even feel real. Anyways, I need to just stay strong these next few days. My workouts and diet are really producing fabulous results.

Miles – 57.38
Push ups – 1,550
Squats – 2,207
1. Alternating DB curls with 30 lb Db’s – Set 1 – 10 reps. Set 2 – 12 reps and Set 3 – 6 reps..I was leaning back on the 6th rep…bad form – not good so I stopped. I want it to be a curl not a swing!
2. TRX – Y’s – 50 reps….these were crazy hard for me today. My back was burning
3. DB Squat press – 30 reps with 20 lb Db’s

Treadmill Intervals – 5 km, 37:58 mins
Running 3% and 5% @ 8.0 – 11.0 kph
Walking 6% – 15% @ 6.5 – 7.5 kph while lifting 5 lb Db’s…curling, punching and overhead press.
I am happy to say that I did run one interval with the Db’s but it was only at 3% incline and at 8.5 kph. I was punching with the 5 lb Db’s while running and I have to say I felt like Rocky in that brief moment in time!
