And while I am certainly not a fashionista, I do think it helps to feel cute/sporty when doing a workout. Fake it til you make it, I guess?!
Wednesday, January 31:
3 mile walk at lunch
2 mile walk with dog in evening
45 minute Strength Class (while Xander was at swim practice)
Thursday, February 1:
45 minutes on our Stair Stepper at home before work

Friday, February 2:
5:30 am Boot Camp Class with two rounds of this 22 workout:
I put smiley faces next to the hardest rounds - "Stairs" is going down and up the Stadium Stairs 22 times per round, and it takes a looooong time. |
Our instructor was coming up behind us to photobomb, but she was too late! |
3 mile walk at lunch
Saturday, February 3:
5.4 mile run
.6 mile Walk with dog and little boys
Phil and I run slow together and talk, with a focus on miles, not speed. I don't even check my pace until the run is over. It's cool to see that miles 3-4 were faster because we were on a bike path when we didn't have to stop to cross any busy roads.
Sunday, February 4:
1 mile run on treadmill + 45 minute cardio/weight class at gym
Monday, February 5:

Tuesday, February 6:
45 minutes on our Stair Stepper at home before work
3 mile Walk at lunch

Plus shaving my legs more than twice a week is overrated, especially in the winter.
ReplyDelete#Truth!
Especially in Canada ;)
DeleteYou are a rockstar, Colleen! I love that you and your husband exercise together.
ReplyDeleteNow if only we could stop eating chips at night together :)
DeleteThank you for sharing these as they motivate me to move. Also, I bought on your recommendation the Vitamin D drops - game changer!!!
ReplyDeleteLove those drops!
DeleteBurpees are the absolute worst. I'm just getting back into working out regularly (7 months postpartum) and halfheartedly working on strength - I know it's so important but it's frustrating to compare to what I could do pre-baby! I just have to keep reminding myself that anything is better than nothing. I did just sign up for Apple fitness and am enjoying the option of bite sized workouts when I don't have the time or willpower to commit to a 30-45 minute session!
ReplyDeleteYes, anything is better than nothing!! It's so hard to get back into shape after each baby....only to go and have another baby again!
DeleteI hope you don't mind me asking but do you wear any particular type of underwear for running? I always have an issue with it slipping down while my leggings are fine. Changing sizes doesn't help.Running underwear seems expensive but it's a very annoying problem I have!
ReplyDeleteThis is probably not the answer you want to hear, but I typically just wear leggings! If I need to wear underwear (that time of the month) I have some really big cotton granny panties that do the trick - https://amzn.to/4cdypoh
DeleteOooh ok actually I was considering that and wondering if it was normal lol! Thanks!
