Double workout

I wrote this yesterday, but was so tired last night that it completely slipped my mind to post it!

We started the day at 7:15 with a 45 min kettlebell workout with Craig! About halfway in I was asking myself 'WHAT were you thinking???' - LOL! All in all it was an excellent workout, but unfortunately it's a blur. We did a 10 minute super set, a tabata of swings/box jumps, and 2 quads (one done early and the other late in the workout).

We grabbed a shower, got cleaned up and was at the office at 8:30. Really, this is a great way to start your day. As Craig says, you can look at just anyone in the building and KNOW that you have done more already in the day than most will be doing all day! :)

Here's what this afternoon's workout looked like (done twice):
  • 50 double handed kettlebell swings
  • 100 scissors
  • 100 low jacks
  • 30 leg lower, v-through, butt lifts
  • 25 Side crunches (each side)
  • 25 crunches (hanging from the bar)
  • 100 high knees
After lunch I gorged myself refueled with a portion of raisins & almonds, small yogurt, pita with real chicken and veggies and a LOAD of water! :) MMmmm, I'm feeling much better now!

I think I was as laid back I get today (due to that nice, tired feeling after the second workout!), but remarkably I wasn't sleepy tired, or too physically tired to keep moving. I actually had a pretty productive paper-movin' day at the office (I usually make Friday the day to removal all those half finished projects, notes, permits, etc from my desk).

Upon returning home, I dropped my bags and grabbed the dog leashes - off to the park for a walk/game of ball/rumble with whoever else might be there to play with!

Hubby made supper:


I figured I had the extra calories to burn, so I had me the last Stella (thank you Craig W.) and my pita pizza. Then a hot tub to loosen all the sore muscles, then snuggled with the daughter to watch 'The Princess Bride' (love that movie!).

All in all a pretty stellar day!
