My workouts & running have been practically non-existent this week. I started out on track Monday. I got up at 5:15 and did 30DS...its been downhill since then. Tuesday I went for a 3mile walk/jog with a friend.. Today I did a little workout. I worked out my arms and did some abs. I couldn't stand to watch a on-demand video so I took what i've learned so far and did my own little routine. I just couldn't stand the thought of someone yelling at me from the TV... ugh.
So this is what I did: --- I don't know "proper" names... So i just name them as I see fit.lol.
Girl push ups (on my knees, i can't do regular ones yet::: 3 sets of 10
Butterflys (lay on my back, weights over my chest, and lower my arms, and raise back up) 50 total
Arm Curls: 3 sets of 10 with my resistance band
Tricep Kickback: 2 sets of 10 R&L with resistance bands
Front riase: 3 sets of 10
Abs Bicycle : 50 total
Abs: Butterfly kicks (lay on back, and spread legs into V shape ) 40 total
Abs :Stability ball crunch :20 total (i know totally wimpy)
Abs: Stability Ball arms out & bounce (crunch position while bouncing arms up and down) 50 total
I read in Runners World that runners with strong core have faster running times because they have better posture. So I am going to start really working on my core. I also really want to work on my arms. I have no upper body strength what-so-ever. Running is helping my legs, so I don't focus on them so much.. I probably should. I should throw in a leg work out every once in awhile.
Tomorrows Goal: 5mi run after work! I gotta get a good run in this week, i'm going crazy here!
