My Punishment for Today!
What a fab weekend I had. Let me tell you, Montreal is one beautiful city to be in when the weather is nice, sunny and warm!! Not only was it great to spend time with my folks, but hanging out with E was great too!! We got to enjoy some of Montreal’s great cooking as well … mind you, my goal and ‘punishment’ for today is to work it all out at the gym … not that it works that way … but that’s my going in approach. It’s leg day with CB, so not only do I feel sorry for her but I also feel sorry for myself!! Ha-ha.
All things aside, it’s not that bad … it’s just the psychology of fitness … when you’re so used to working out and eating well, a little deviation makes you feel like you gained the poundage of a house … when in reality it probably did your body good to give it that bit of a shock. ‘Truss’ me … I ate completely guilt-free this weekend and enjoyed every last finger licking goodness of it! If you are ever in Montreal, you must try a Chicken Burger at a joint called Kojax. It’s this Souvlaki place that makes the best Chicken burgers!! Not just your plain ol’ burger. The burger is made up of sliced pieces of chicken (used normally to make a Souvlaki pita). I had it topped with lettuce, tomato and Taziki sauce. I choose Taziki myself. E and I each ordered one, and then looked at each other when we’d finished it and agreed we each deserved a half of another….. Ha-Ha!!!
CB and I have a pretty good leg day ahead of us, we’re going to be doing; lying leg curls, leg extensions, single leg press, walking lunges and good mornings. It’s the 100 walking lunges / per leg that really does it! That’s serious…. To start my workout, I’m going to do the new treadmill running interval that I’ve now incorporated into my training. So, as you can see, this evening’s training session is gonna be a tough one.
Anyhoo … I’ve got a full day ahead of me, and while I’d love to stay and write more, I’ve really got to get my day started.
Enjoy yours and see you back here again soon!
Cheers, Nke
