Working Out is Hard…but FUN!
My legs hurt! We did this killer hamstring workout today. It wasn’t even that much but holy god, my legs burn. So I’m just two weeks in but already seeing results! How cool is that? Rob and I have locked down the 9am hour for working out 3 times a week. I initially thought the early time would be really hard for me because getting up is tough most days. Turns out it is hard for me cause of eating late at night. Christy has me not eating past 8pm and by 10:30pm I’m dead tired. But all day I have tons of energy from the early workout and multiple meals throughout the day. I got to say I give loads of credit to those folks who have to get up super early to workout before work, go to work, then go home and be with their kids. Here I am struggling with 9am cause of my love for late night food.
Anyway, I’m happy that I’m seeing results but still feel like the ultimate goal is far away and I have lots of work to do. I’m trying my best to not “settle.” It seems easy to settle but at this point in my life that’s not good enough. I feel like my next challenge is to keep up with my workouts on the days I’m not with Rob. We have an in house treadmill which helps but I need to keep doing the early morning workouts so I don’t let the day get in the way and boy is that easy. Busy or not busy, sometimes 8pm roles up on you quick and you say, “where did the day go? I didn’t do this or that.” I hate that! And I feel like I spent the better part of my 20’s with that problem. So, no more wasting time. Workout in the morning, get on with my day and be productive!
As for my actual workouts, Rob keeps changing things up on me to keep me on my toes. I like that. We keep the same overall structure but each individual workout changes a little bit week by week. Last week it was one kind of squat, this week another. Makes it fun.
