Weekly?

Hi Everybody,

So it appears these posts are going to pop up about weekly maybe? I still want to write in here I just don't want my whole life to be about getting on the internet every night before bed because then I never seem to get to sleep I just keep finding things to do. I bought myself the new Nickolas Sparks book, the one thats being made into Miley Cyrus's new movie, The Last Song. I love love love the book, I'm only half way through it but I am starting to realize how much I have not been reading since I got this computer and started my blog and everything. I love to read it is my most favorite thing so I've decided to find a happy medium. Every other night I can be on the computer. Hopefully I can stick to it.


So, the week in exercise. I ended the last post on Wednesday morning And I couldn't even remember what I did last Tuesday so I had to go back and reread my last post just to update myself lol. So, Wednesday night I usually go to the gym after I get done at Bob Evans, but I got off a lot later than I normally do. You see the Oregon Y closes at Ten where as the Perrysburg Y doesn't close till midnight I wish I was always able to go to that one. But anyways Wednesday night I didn't get out of work until almost 9:30 So I wouldn't have had time to drive over there change get a work out in all in a half hour. So I acutally got off work early on Thursday night and headed straight over there and did a little big longer of a workout than I usually have time to do at the Oregon Y. I was really happy with it. I did a full hour on the eliptical again but not only that but I also did intervals which I read you can lose more weight by pushing a workout then recovering over and over while on any aerobic machine rather than just going at a moderate speed the whole time your on your machine. So on Thursday night I pushed myself to go fast at a high incline for 8 minutes straight then recover by doing 12 minutes at a low incline still trying to go kind of fast, all for a total of 1 hour. :) I was very happy with that then because I had been able to get there so early I still had time to do my weight training. I did my arm weights a mixture of 5 pound and 8 pound weights doing bicep curls then I don't know what they're called I kind of feel like I made them up but I start with my arms bent at the elbow then punch up almost like the arm part of a jumping jack. I don't know if thats an accurate description but it's the best I can think of, Then I also do a move that is a little faster and more of an aerobic move I think than a muscle trainer but it could be both like I said I just kind of made some of these up. Anywyas the third and final arm weight movements I do is kind of like a fast robot move you know the robot dance people do. well I just do that really fast while holding my weights. It's fun and I do it in time to my music on my mp3 player. Then unfortunatly that was the end of last weeks workouts. I usually go on Saturday but I had a very very busy day on Saturday and was not able to fit working out into that busy schedule. But I'm going to be back full force this afternoon/evening again. I can't decide what time to go but whatever I do it's going to be an awesome workout. :) I just realized how much my workouts last week really sucked I need to get in there more this week.

One last thing, I have been meaning to tweek the playlist on my mp3 a little. I've been skipping alot of the songs that I thought would be good for working out but that just doesn't seem to be the case. I was at 115 songs when I first put the music on it now I'm down to like 80 some but I don't feel like I hear all the songs anyways so it doesn't really matter how many are on it. Alright well I need to back to my laundry so that I can get it done before I go workout. Oh by the way my "sister" Jenny sent me a card for how well I have been doing on this journey and I was so excited about it I wanted to tell you all about it. Also something kind of funny is that she sent me a Starbucks gift card too. The funny thing about that is that I never used to go to starbucks but latley I've been goin in there alot to relax after work or working out and reading I love it there it doesn't have to be real expensive or real bad for you like I used to think you just have to know how to work the menu so I'm super excited about that. THANKS JEN!!!!!

BYE EVERYBODY :) :) :) :)
