Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend! I didn’t have too much exciting happening, I kind of took this as a get my “To Do” List done weekend. Despite the fact that I have a lot of free time, I’ve been avoiding doing a lot of little things, like buying a broom and dust pan or cleaning my goldfish’s tank, so I got all of those things done!
I also did a very “big” thing and bought health insurance! Woooohoooo…. Since I turn 26 on October 30th, I am officially off my parents plan. I spent a solid hour and a half Friday evening on the phone getting new health insurance… gotta love adulthood.
Other than that, I watched the Missouri game at a bar in Lincoln Park with my older brother, ran a bunch of errands, went to church on Sunday morning and did some meal prep for the week. And of course, following the Chiefs game…
I also borrowed my brother’s guitar! I had a random urge to play guitar and thought it would be a fun little thing to do while I have the time. Sadly he didn’t seem to trust me with his acoustic guitar, so he gave me an electric one without the amp to plug it into… baby steps I guess. Granted, I already have a blister from learning 2 chords in about 20 minutes…
Alright, now on to workouts! First, here’s a look at last week’s workouts:
Monday: 3 miles I got to the gym later than usual Monday morning and there were classes in the fitness room where I’d do the workout so I thought, oh I’ll do it at home!.. womp womp. That didn’t happen, so I pushed it to Tuesday and pushed each purely fit workout one day back to keep them in order.
Tuesday: Purely Inspire Workout 3
Wednesday: 3 miles + Purely Fit Workout #30 Butt Blaster (um scared…
Thursday: REST
Friday: Purely Inspire Workout 6 (15 minute HIIT workout) + 2 miles
Saturday: 1 mile + 20 minutes elliptical I was supposed to run 4 miles but my legs were just dead. I told myself push through one mile and if things haven’t improved you can stop. Well they didn’t, so I switched to the elliptical but then only did 20 minutes since I was trying to meet up with my brother and already running late!
Sunday: Purely Inspire Workout 7 (16 minute weight circuit workout) + 4 mile power walk* + abs
*I say power walk because this is a walk where I’m focused completely on walking and fitness. I actually walk several miles a day just running errands around Chicago but I do them at a more leisurely pace so I don’t include them here.
And now here’s what I have coming up this week:
Monday: 3 miles + Purely Inspire Workout 4
Tuesday: Purely Inspire Workout 2
Wednesday: 3 miles + Purely Fit Life #20
Thursday: 2 miles + Purely Inspire Workout #4
Friday: Purely Inspire Workout #5
Saturday: 6 miles
Sunday: REST (trade with any other day)
