Its a fabulous Friday indeed!
So far so good! I ended up waking up a 1/2 hour late this morning which ordinarily would have put me in a bad mood to start and I would have made the excuse that "I have no time to workout this morning, I will work out later" only to put it off and say "I’m too tired" and not workout until maybe tomorrow. BUT instead of falling into old habits I kicked my butt. I jumped up- took my little Max puppy out (the brisk air woke me up!) - took in some caffeine and was on my way.
Back tracking a bit… for those of you who didnt read my last blog "enough is enough" I have decided to dedicate time to plan and set things up to ensure success with my diet and workouts… well thank goodness I did last night. I made my meals for today last night and I even put out my stuff for my breakfast AND I also put my kickboxing cardio DVD in the DVD player- cleared the misc. items in the living room so I had no excuse..
Well with everything already done and feeling more awake-even when you are late it makes it VERY hard to make any excuses for missing a workout. I decided I would do 30 min of kickboxing and some light ab work instead of my usual 45-60 min of kickboxing and 1/2 hour ab work (hey something is better then nothing right?) and I also opted to make up for lost time by taking a 5 minute shower instead of my usual indulgent 20 minute shower…. it worked…
I got done and felt amazing… it feels so good to do kickboxing again (its been a while) and it felt so good knowing that I didnt use an excuse and pushed myself to get it done. Good job me!
After work I am going to get my Max puppy and walk him up to pick up my daughter (about 1/2 mile each way) then I will stop over and see my Uncle… head home-hopefully send the kid outside to play with her friends and do some more ab work! Then I am going to read some of my book and chill out at home for the night.
What a great Friday, hope yours goes well!
