The Best is Yet to Come

…..and dance till you feel better! Got in a great cardio workout at home tonight.

Tonight was just cardio, which was good and housework, which was not - Ugh.

My diet sucked today - oatmeal for breakfast, lunch was chicken and steak with some rice and black beans, dinner was tomato soup with some crackers. Not good

Here is my chest/arm workout at home from last night:

Bench - 3 x 10 @ 44 (2 - 22lb dumbbells)

Incline DB’s - 3 x 10 @ 30 (2 - 15 lb dbs)

DB Curls - 3 x 10 @ 15

Hammer Curls - 3 x 10 @ 15

Skullcrushers - 3 x 10 @ 30

Flyes - 3 x 10 @ 12

Close Grip - 3 x 10 @ 30

Overhead Tricep Extensions - 3 x 10 @ 15

Then some abwork, cardio and stretching.

Felt good - but I get a better workout in the gym.

…for being such a slacker on my blog. The last month has been full of quite a few ups and downs both physically, emotionally, professionally and romantically.

It’s been a bit of a ride and most of it has settled down for now. Professionally, I couldn’t be happier - my job has changed a bit for the better including a very nice increase in salary. My sister is finally moving back home from Colorado and we’re all thrilled. I’ve had a few oddities romantically, but I have a feeling it will all be good.

My diet took a nosedive when I had company visiting - but it was worth it. We had a great time and I’m finally at the point where I can allow myself to break some rules and not beat myself up over it - especially knowing that I can get right back on track. What’s the point of busting your ass in the kitchen and in the gym if you’re not allowed to give yourself permission to take a break now and then?

As for my training - they’ve been a bit spotty lately but I’m back on track - it’s been an interesting few weeks to say the least, but it’s with a smile and a spring in my step that I move forward. (just waiting for this 3 day sinus headache to go away!)
