Day 13: Buns

*Disclaimer: Guys, this is more of a girlie post, so if the mention of feminine products, Midol, and cramps make you queasy, go do your workout and come back tomorrow.*

I got up this morning with a headache. Actually, I went to bed with a bad headache, and woke up with the toned down version. We all get these at least once a month - the cramps that think they need to reside inside your skull while the ones in your uterus wage World War 3. Welcome to Aunt Flo. As I laid in bed, contemplating calling in sick, not wanting to get up and deal with the world, I had an internal dialog going:

Me: My head hurts.
Brain: I know, I can feel it.
M: I don't feel like working out today. I don't feel like doing much anything today.
B: Get up and do your workout. It'll help ease the abdominal cramps, and it'll probably help the headache as well.
M: I don't wanna.
B: Chelsie Louise!

Fine. I got out of bed. I hate it when my brain turns into my mom and uses my middle name against me. But ya know what? My internal waistline doesn't hurt near as bad as it did when I was lounging in bed.

Ok, boys, you can come back now. BUNS! That is what we're doing today - or did, rather. It's on disc two, along with the Core workout, and since I'm starting week 3, I hadn't gotten to this one yet. I couldn't do the whole thing, 'cause I gotta shower and eat before work (see, this is why you get up earlier). I suggest wearing tennis shoes for this one. I didn't, and I had some trouble. I may redo this one when I get home tonight, just so I can actually get the workout in, as I feel like I jipped myself by hanging out in bed and wallowing in self pity.

One of the exercises she does is called bowlers - it's the finishing stance you wind up in after throwing the ball down the lane, and after bowling with my high school for 4 years, I can honestly tell you you'll feel those tomorrow.

If I can do it, you can do it!
