The Start of a Successful Saturday.....

I woke up this morning around 8:00am. My girls are away for the weekend, I got up and felt motivated to go to the gym. I quickly put on my sweats and t-shirt, grabbed my IPOD and ran to the door so I would not talk myself out of it. I had a great workout. I did 35 minutes on the Elliptical which is my favorite machine. This time I tried something different. I put the incline on level 19 and every 3 segments I increase my resistance. I started at 8 went to 12 and every two segments I decreased it. It was grueling and I was a sweat box but I think I like to keep challenging myself and taking it up a notch. Every article I have read always talks about muscle confusion and changing up your workout so your body does not become use to what is being done. I did arm exercises after my cardio. I am on my way to get my hair done. Unfortunately it will only be a new do for 2 days cause Monday starts workouts again so I will be back to wearing a ponytail. Stay focused the weekend is always a challenge!
