Muscles just stopped aching....

Today is a good day - after my 4 days straight of training and taking Sunday off, my muscles have finally stopped screaming....almost.  My Hamstrings are ringing a bit, but I will power through.  Yesterday i thought my body was going to give me a huge 'F'U' when I got out of bed.  WOW was I sore.  It's all good though - I knew to give my body some time off to recoup. 

So now it is Monday and time to get back at it - I am thinking some Tabata'a are in my future.  Not only do I have to do them, but I think most of my clients will have to as well!

Tabata's are great - get the heart rate up quickly and are very time effective - 20 seconds of intense work with 10 seconds of rest.  You are training at 90% of your max - and sometimes want to chuck your cookies :)

I will report on my soreness tomorrow, I am sure I will have some, and always willing to share!

Have an awesome Monday!

Happy Friday, Happy Blogging!

So now it's my turn :) yesterday was good! No workout, but I was super sore from my workout with my training partner on Wednesday. Today is another story - throwing in some weights and cardio today. Gonna try for another run - very excited to be able to run again!

You will be hearing lots from me - including my own workouts.... So stay tuned!!

Long weekend training!

This goes out to everyone on a regular training schedule - you need to still train even if it's a long weekend! Many people tend to say 'I'll take the long weekend off, I deserve it!'. WELL - you deserve to stay active and continue with your progress over the weekend! Plan an active family outing, go for a run, do some weights - whatever you want!

So instead of taking the weekend off, make it a 'choose your favorite training method' weekend - have fun and stick with the plan!

I am heading out of town on Saturday so I am training Friday morning and Sunday, taking Saturday off - it's all planned and I am going to make it happen!

My thoughts to all of the veterans this weekend, thank you for all of your sacrifices for our freedom.
