WoW (Workout Wednesday)



This is where I'll talk about what I'm doing exercise-wise.  The good, the bad, and the ugly.

I found this Pin and thought I'd incorporate it.  What, no crazy hard routine, you ask?  Nope.  That's what I usually do:  Throw myself into a new workout and I'm sore for the first week and struggling to find the motivation to continue by day 9.  Not this time (or so I say).  I've completed through day 3 so far, and I have to admit that jumping jacks are enough to get your heart rate going a bit.  Here it is.


Found on Pinterest.  Original link not working, so unknown contributor.
Do you think this might be something you'd consider?  What workout plan do you have?  Do you have a plan?  Again, I think it's better to have a plan.  With a reminder of, "Hey, I need to do this," I'm far less likely to wimp out or forget. So, schedule a workout.  Put it in your phone even; set an alarm.  Then, when it goes off, do it.  Something as easy as this workout can be done just about anywhere.


I added 20 minutes of Gazelle time on Monday.  Why? Because I sit on my patootey to work, and I know I need it.  And that's not too much.  I can set my timer and oversee the girls doing chores while I swing away.  I'll do that as many times as possible this week.

This is a solid plan for my current week because we started school Monday.  We homeschool, and that takes a good chunk of the day.  The girls are becoming more and more independent in their work, but I still must get my own work done (I'm a freelance contractor, editor and internet specialist...bahaha that last one makes me laugh.).  So, hence the smaller routine.  It would have been easy to say I don't have time this week, but I didn't do that.  I told myself Icouldn't.  That's just an excuse and my husband already vlogged about that, didn't he?  So, no more excuses, I've started working out - whatever fits into my schedule, whatever I can cram in.  It will be beneficial, so I must.

What are your workout goals this week?  Please share!
