Day 27 and 28 Recaps

Another double-up in terms of my daily recaps. It has been a busy weekend and I have not been online, so I'm hoping to recap everything in one post accurately:)

Day 27 was really busy with lots of running around but I had a fantastic workout. I went to the gym before closing time again and decided to skip the leg weights and just shoot some solo hoops. I was actually curious how my feet would hold out after the long run on Thursday night. The good news is that I felt great and had no lingering effects.

Today, Day 28 was actually the closest I came so far to missing a workout. From the time I woke up this morning until quite late at night, I was completely booked. I literally had no time to workout. Jessica and I then took the evening to ourselves to catch up and go for dinner/movie. By the time we got home it was after 11pm and I was full from all the popcorn (I KNOW this is a healthy regimen I'm on but I am allowing snacks and junk food in moderation. This is more about long term lifestyle than a fad diet and I WILL allow myself to eat some not-so-healthy stuff when I feel like it). So, in order to keep the fitness streak going, I did a 10 minute ab blast....and I actually broke a sweat!!!

I've heard of "7 minute abs" and I beat it by an extra 3 minutes!! It also qualifies as fitness so the streak is alive at 28 days!

Its actually pretty interesting to observe my recovery rates now that I am exercising every single day. When I first started this challenge, that was one of the big mental blocks I had to overcome. The belief that I 'should not' workout every day. The truth is, thousands (if not millions) of people around the world workout every day. Some VERY seriously if they are olympians or pro athletes. And if they can do it, so can I. So I have already changed that belief at a core level. Which is REALLY cool to me.

I have absolutely no sore muscles or fatigue heading to bed tonight. I'm pumped to get back to the gym tomorrow for a heavy chest/back/cardio routine!

C-U-L8R!!
