Workouts this week: New Year's

I had a lazy week. I blame the holidays. I just felt like sitting around.

Sunday: Home workout

45 minutes of interval training. Five minutes on the exercise bike + 100 abs, pushups and pull-ups. Repeat.
Lots of abs, arms, and legs.

Monday: Off
Did 15 minutes on the exercise bike to keep Apple Watch happy



Tuesday: Back to work
The university being open meant the gym was open—so ran 4 miles on the indoor track.

Wednesday: Exercise bike
I was going to go to the gym and use the machines. I thought it would easier just to do my exercise bike + ab and arm circuit at home. So that's what I did.
45 minute workout.

Thursday: Indoor run
I tried out the Strava app—because Lululemon and Strava have a promotion. Run 25 miles in two weeks and you get something (IDK what) at Lululemon. I can run that mileage so I downloaded the app again (I've tried it and hated it twice before), so I tried it again today.

I ran 2 miles on an indoor track with good wifi. I had my phone and apple watch on me. My Apple Watch says I ran 1.8 miles, the Strava app says 1.2.

Well I can't run 25 miles if the app cheats me half my mileage. Guess I won't be participating in that challenge, since you can't import workouts.


The track is crazy busy. It;s always crazy busy with New Year's resolution people. I always forget though. And it's extra shocking because the gym is so empty in December. It's hard to move through people. Technically you're supposed to walk on the inside and pass on the outside, but it's really a free for all.

Friday: Pilates

Saturday: Exercise bike: 28 minutes. It was a snow day. There was a dusting of snow. So everything was closed. And I was super unmotivated.

Workouts this week: Christmas 2016

This was my lazy week. No work. The university gym was closed. I wasn't feeling super motivated to workout.

Sunday: Christmas
I did 45 minutes on the exercise bike (to offset that poundcake I ate my sister's house). Also arms and abs. And some pull-ups.

Monday: Off.

Tuesday: 3+ mile run on the trails




Yay for gorgeous weather so that I could run outside. I was feeling kinda sluggish so didn't run farther.

Wednesday: Yoga at home
The plan was to try a new yoga studio, but I felt like staying in. So I did 60 minutes of yoga at home. I had to look up some sequences. I found  12 minute ab sequence that was challenging. So I stayed in and saved $13.

Thursday: 5 mile trail run



Felt strong on this run. It was WINDY and felt colder than the 60 degrees it was supposed to be. I ran my first 2.5 miles in my long sleeve shirt (which I didn't plan on running in. I just grabbed it heading out the door). Then I tied it around my waist and ran. It was a cheap jacket from Old Navy and that actually worked out. Anything from Lulu would have been too warm to run in. I'm usually too hot after half a mile when I run in lulu long sleeves.



Friday: Lazy
Lazy day. I did 16 minutes on the exercise bike to keep my Apple Watch happy. I just didn't know what to do.

Saturday: Lazy
Again I did nothing. I did 25 minutes on the exercise bike to appease my Apple Watch, but that's it. It was too cold to run outside.

The student gym will open Tuesday and classes will start. I should be fine until then. I hope.
