Day 14

I kind of did a bit of a workout today without meaning to, in that I wore 2 inch heels to work, then followed that six hour shift up with a trip to both Wal-Mart & Meijer. You get strange looks walking around both places while wearing heels and a dress, just in case you were wondering. Lugging 40 pounds of kitty litter in the rain across the parking lot in heels - there's a picture for you. 

I told Zach he had to help me take a before photo when the TurboFire gets here, but until then, you're stuck hearing about my "boring" old regular workouts. Only 4 more days, though! FedEx says it'll be to me by the 6th, as well as my shakes! I'm so excited! 

I did two circuits of Jillian's Backside for Beginners, and I gotta say, I'm a tad disappointed. There should be something somewhere on the DVD case that tells you what is needed in order to do these exercises. I hate having to scramble to find the necessary equipment (a box, dumbbells, etc), thereby delaying my workout, because I had no heads up beforehand. Ms. Michaels, if you could remedy this, that would be epic! I finished out the workout by switching to the Wii and doing 15 minutes of cardio boxing. I really have no plans to ever clock anyone a good one, but I just enjoy boxing so much! My shoulders are aching, my arms are heavy, and it is AWESOME. It helps, too, that I put on my 2 lb gloves for this, so it gave an extra "umph" to the whole thing. 

Considering I just got done boxing, and I'm sweating like you wouldn't believe, I thought the above was appropriate. And awesome. I also made sure my core will sufficiently hurt tomorrow with my arms and shoulders, so I added a few (ok, 20) sit ups with a twist to really get those obliques. 

If I can do it, you can! Keep moving forward!
