Week 1, Day 6
Day 6 was 40 Min Cross Train so I did the elliptical again. And I had MUCH better results this time.
I must have picked a REALLY bad workout on the last elliptical workout I did because THIS time I burned over 400 hundred calories. I did an interval elliptical workout that went from resistance of 1 to 8 every two minutes. I LOVED it!!! ^-^
2nd try at elliptical = success!!!
Have a great week and keep up the AMAZING work, ya’ll! ^-^

4.29.12 Cardio
Elliptical
- 30 mins “weight loss” option/interval
I wanted to do running again like on Thursday, but by the “end” of my week (Sunday, Monday) my ankle tends to want to die between being on my feet for hours on end at my two jobs. So, seeing as I have to be on my feet for 8 hours (again) today (Monday, 4/30), I thought I’d be a little gentler on my ankle.
Increase of EVERYTHING next week!

5.23.12 Cardio and Core
I was supposed to do both the cardio and core together but with the damn bus schedule, I didn’t have enough time to do both. But I did do both, I just had to split up the workouts.
Before work:
- Stability Ball Pelvic Tilt Crunch - 10lbs, 3x15
- Walk the Plank and Rotate - 2x8
- Arm Pull Over-Straight Leg Crunch - 8lbs, 3x12
- Nose to Opposite Knee Crunch - 3x12
After Work:
I had wanted to do interval sprints but the AWESOME cooks at my restaurant always make us more food after work, but I stayed way from the pasta and bread and ate ALL THE VEGGIES! So, I was just a little sluggish with the asparagus, cauliflower and salad. Instead I did the elliptical.
- 30 mins interval elliptical
This is my blog to show life without fear. Trust me, I have plenty of fears in love, health, fitness, school, career... life, but I will not let that stop me. Time to face fear and live my life! I will push myself harder and have no fear that someone might be judging me... they're just jealous because I can conquer fear.
