Slacker?

Yes and no...

Yes I've been slacking with blogging...
Yes I've slacked on my eating...
No I haven't slacked on my exercise...

I'm down, not really weight related, but I do think it's being effected.  Maybe I should have titled this blog "Eating my Moods and Emotions..."  Today I am regretting how relaxed I was with my eating on Sunday, the last two days wouldn't seem so bad if I hadn't been so bad Sunday.  Anyway, I can't dwell on it because I've already consumed the yummy ass fattening food.  I still have a chance at maintaining this week.

I've created my own routine though and it seems to be working pretty well.  I've been a little sore most days.  For Reference purposes I've going to call it Workout One, cause well, it's the first workout I've come up with on my own.
Itty Bits of Balance
I started by using this Running Workout.  Then I realized that I run at a snails pace so I had to modify it for myself.

Workout One
20 Minute as follows: Holy crap does this get my heart going!


Strength:
Bicep Curls in the squat position - I get in the squat position as low as I can. Feet hip width apart making sure the knees never go over the toes.
Holding this position I do 12 bicep curls.  Arms down at sides, palms facing forward, raise palms to shoulders, lower.


Raised Bicep Curls in the Sumo squat position - "sumo squat" is shown to the left, then I raise my arms parallel with the floor, palms up and bring weights to my shoulders and back to the starting position, repeat 12 times.



Butterfly with a held pelvic curl (butt lift) - Lay on the floor, knees bent, feet flat on the floor.  Raise your butt up in the air and hold.  Tighten the glutes and abs.  Hold arms out to the sides, palm up.  In a steady motion bring weights together over your chest and then back to starting position.  Repeat 12 times.



Bench Press with help pelvic curl (butt lift) - Stay on the floor in the pelvic curl position.  Keeps arms out to the sides, bent 90 degrees at elbows, palms facing your feet.  Push weights straight up and return to starting position.  Repeat 12 times.




Bicycle Crunch - 30 total (15 each side)


Repeat Strength 3 times.
