Home workout & a trip to the Lake

Sat morning I was without children thank to Shanan and Marlo - Marlo took Katie for a sleepover with her girls and Shanan took the boy with her to her cottage on the lake. So, I was posed with the question - clean the house or workout? Workout won! 

I started with a skipping tobata finally having the chance to use my new Gymboss:


The Gymboss is a timer, but also can be set for interval work - so, in my case I set it for a 90 second work period with a 10 second rest period (so two intervals) and chose to do the group of two intervals at 8 reps. It has a vibrate and/or buzz - I like the vibrate option when you have earphones on!

After that 'warm up' I hit the TRX and did one round of the "TRX Endurance Circuit" - which was the magic number 20 (reps) of 3 exercises, 2 minutes of cardio, 3 exercises, 2 minutes cardio, 3 exercises, 2 minutes of cardio. I don't believe I've sweat the much ever - even at Core!

Here's what the home gym is looking like:


Sunday we hit the road and visited Shanan at her cottage - we had a great time, BBQ'd for dinner, swam our little hearts out and even had a few bevvies! I'll leave you with some pics:

And a relaxed Abby after her time in the lake!

Later!
