Today, I had a very effective cardio session on the new spin bike. I really enjoy the guided sessions that are programmed. I am able to get my heart rate up to the 150's without really noticing it. It's amazing how much better you can do when you are pushed by someone else!
Tomorrow I plan to train quads and traps. I was originally planning to do it today, but I haven't adjusted to my new schedule that well. I keep leaving much later than I intend. I started dropping my kids off at our childcare provider earlier in the day so that I could hopefully get more work done around the house. However, the home projects just seem to take on a life of their own and I haven't been pulling myself away in time to leave the house when I originally intended. So, I need to stand firm in my time commitments and leave earlier, even if what I started isn't complete. I don't know if any of you can relate, but when I start doing something, I just can't rest until it's completed.
Below is my food log for today. You may note a few treats. Many people may think of that as a real negative, I think this is a really good example of how I can actually stay pretty well on track and have a few goodies at the same time. I was well in the calorie range that I needed to be and I had lots of protein as well. There is a way to balance life and achieve your fitness goals at the same time!
