Hump Day: Walk in the Park: Day 37

Hey NeverEver's!

Today went by pretty fast...although I think that had something to do with me watching Star Wars! Yes I am a nerd...I think I may even have a certificate somewhere in the house!

I did have a wonderful lunch and as I said a good movie to keep me entertained! Although I think I enjoyed the grapes the most, besides the movie, they were so yummy and just picked at the right time!

Anyways, instead of hitting the gym for my H.I.I.T (High Intensity Interval Training), as I was still feeling my BodyPump I went a cardio route. I do enjoy walking outside and I was treated to a full moon tonight!

It looked better in person!

Side note there was quite a few spider webs out there tonight. I seemed to jog / walk into every single one! Had to take a shower as soon as I got in the door!

On a personal note, I have an interview tomorrow morning, and also on Friday afternoon. So maybe Monday starts me with a new job?!? That would be really nice of course.

I didn't have that bad of a day! Especially with the family wanting fish, I don't do anything more then shrimp, and the Hubby and I went to go get cheeseburgers.

So how was your Hump Day? Do you like walking outside or would you prefer walking on the treadmill?

Workout Wednesday: Day 30 + H.I.I.T

Hey NeverEver's!

First I really want to thank everyone who gave me an encouraging word after I posted my 'Over Eating'. You all really gave me so much motivation to make sure I keep this journey up!

I have to say I over slept this morning. Probably has something to do with my workouts and the fact that I didn't have a job to go to in the morning! It was really nice and I felt that my body really needed the extra sleep. But, once I did get up (after I missed breakfast) I did start job hunting!

Ya I don't sleep like that but I thought it was cute

Okay so I went to a new class tonight and I must have been crazy, really crazy! I mean on Monday I did Spin, and on Tuesday I did my Body Pump yet added more weights, and today I did a H.I.I.T or High Intensity Interval Training!

Man do I really feel it! That class had NO breaks, you were either marching in place or, horrible horrible things, Jumping Jacks! I really loved that class and I can't wait to see if I have to stop as much next week as I did this week!

If you haven't tried it yet...I have to say that this class moves FAST! Which is the whole point for H.I.I.T. The goal behind this class is to give you spurts of HIGH INTENSITY in SHORT INTERVALS. Here is a few things that I have been able to research!

• It increases the amount of calories you burn DURING the workout and even AFTER the workout because it increases the amount of time it takes your body to recover after each set. 
• It helps your fat burning potential as well as your athletic endurance because your body has to use the fat as duel during the workout
• However, to get the benefits of this workout...you really need to push yourself! 

Wish I had found this picture before I typed everything lol

So needless to say I really am feeling ALL this weeks workouts...and yet when I came home I felt the need to take a walk. I didn't want my legs to just freeze in place. So I took a walk around my neighborhood while enjoying a finally NICE night here in Cali. If you live here you know its been up to 100 all last week and I don't have a pool!

So Here is my Daily Stats:

My walk really got me those steps!

For my calories consumed, I didn't mean to eat that little, however that is what happens when you sleep until noon. You don't have breakfast and you just have lunch and dinner. I am extremely happy with today's stats!

So NeverEver's after you made a mistake were you able to get back up the next day? Have you ever tried H.I.I.T? Were you able to make it all the way through? If you were you are my hero!
