Cardio: Worked out at Air Products Fitness Center today.
On Life Fitness Elliptical Trainer
Warmup: 5 minutes, then 3 sets of Intervals 2 minutes @high intensity + 2 minutes @low intensity; I did an addition interval after strength training as I couldn't complete the 4th set in the initial warmup as I was just too tired
5 - 6 PM Belly Dancing Class
Strength Training:
Decline Pushup - 1 set, 14 reps
Stability Ball Pushup - 2 sets, 14 reps
Dumbbell Burpees - 6 lb. weights - 3 sets, 6 reps , weights actually made these a little easier as I'm not afraid of crashing onto my wrist. I'm still terrible at them as it hurts my right wrist a little, but now I can work at more speed, then more reps
Walking Lunges - 3 sets of 12
Standing Band Rotations - 3 sets, 10 each direction, I used the equipment at the gym instead of bands
Pull Downs - 3 sets of 10, used equipment instead of bands since I was at the gym
Get-Ups - Weighted - 3 sets, 7 reps, my butt is off the ground by 18 inches or so, but nowhere near standing up. Friday night at Salsa Class I had the one young instructor try this. We know he has exceptionally long arms as he is only 5'3" but his arms as long as my instructor's who is 5'11". He struggled, but got up. We realized my arms are short for my height too. I can leg press 280 lbs. and do leg lifts of 85 lbs. no problem, so it's very strange I can't do these.
Nutrition:
6 AM - Breakfast: 1/2 Grapefruit, Omelet with 2 whole (large) eggs + 2 egg whites, spinach, peppers, & mushrooms. Omelet is too big, I never eat 3 egg omelets and I only ever use eggs sized as "large" as that's what baking recipes are based on. My husband ate a third of the omelet.
10 AM - Morning Snack - 1/2 of a Quick Shake
12 PM Lunch - Mexican Salad with green peppers & radishes (no red onions as they don't agree with me), grilled chicken breast, and some of my homemade salsa (made with sweet onions) which I canned at the end of summer with my heirloom garden tomatoes
No Afternoon Snack as I wasn't hungry
6:15 PM Dinner - Wild Caught Salmon with Alton Brown's Salmon Spice Rub (homemade) baked on a plank, mixed greens salad with tomatoes, pickles, peppers, broccoli
No Evening Snack as I'm not hungry and I never snack after dinner
