    Had a great run at the park on a new path. Didn't take the dog so I was able to shave 35 seconds off my mile time which doesn't sound like much but made me happy!

    Cardio: 3.3 miles with HR in the anaerobic zone the entire time!

    Strength: Tomorrow

    Assessment: Have been eating too crazy lately so back to normal today and a bit of a deficit this week!

    Have a great Sunday!!!

    Good Morning and Happy Monday Fit People! :)

    Strength: P90X: Chest and Back and UFC FIT: Abs Assassin done!

    Cardio: walk in the evening with my son, don't really feel for those walks, but don't want to discourage him, so yeah, long walk in the evening!

    Nutrition: been ok, I have learned to be more detailed journalizing my meals, so I seem to ran out of macros to quick, but I have learned all this time, I have been eating a lot more carbs, than I have been budgeted for, but still ok, since even tho I have gained a pound or two, I have still managed to lose bf%. so cool to see bf dropping! :)

    Good Morning and Happy Hump Day people! :)

    Strength: P90X Shoulders and Arms
    Cardio: None or maybe UFC FIT: Abs Assassin could be looked at as cardio? how are Abs workouts looked at anyway?

    Nutrition was excellent yesterday, This morning tho, mmmm different story! had a egg and sausage breakfast wrap from McDonald, to be honest it was soooo tasty! wow! but when I saw the calorie content, ha! that was no joke! 710 freaking calories! 44 fat! oh boy!
    and I have promised the boys to take them to Mediterranean restaurant for diner, so I hereby declare today a total disaster, if I can not stop at one falafel sandwich that is.

    Last session of 12 with my trainer this morning. Probably won't hire one again until next spring if I feel the need to. He really helped me bring my shoulder all the way back after 10 weeks of physical therapy and has also helped me with strengthening my right hip. I'm pretty happy with the results.

    Cardio: One mile run. Have my first 5K run on Sunday and I think I'm ready. Taking running a little easy this week so I'm not burned out by Sunday. Next week I plan to begin training for a 10K in November.

    Strength: 20 min calisthenics and shoulder rehab warm-up followed by:

    3X10 TRX squats & 3X10 TRX lunge and drive
    3X12 curl and press w/15/15 lbs
    3X15 cable cross flyes w/7/7
    3X10 cable row w/rotation 23 lbs
    3X12 seated flye and chest press w/15/15
    3X12 single leg DL w/40 lb KB
    2X10 seated shoulder press w/20
    2X15 ball slam w/10lbs
    3X12 outer thigh w/70
    3X12 leg extensions w/50
    3X10 calf raises w/90 lbs added
    3X10 seated rows w/75

    Assessment: Still have a couple of lbs to lose from my two extravagant weekends in a row.......getting there.

    Have a great Hump Day!

    @MJFSH, I love those McDonald's breakfast sandwiches...........WOW on the calories though!!!

    @luluinca love them too, but got to be smarter about my selection next time, it was a total of 710 cal, 56 carb, 44 fat, and only 28 protein! but usually by this time of the day, I would have had my lunch already, but still feeling so full since I had the wrap at 9:00.

    @MJFSH, sounds like you'll be able to fit it in. Not much protein for that many calories though........I have enough trouble getting protein in as it is...... ;)

    BTW, now I want one.......lol

    @luluinca I actually will be fitting it in, even with my lunch and protein shake, all depending if I can stop at one falafel sandwich for dinner tho. Lunch and protein shake are absolutely needed, because they are my major protein source, can't skip those.
    I usually won't be able to get all my protein in, if not having a shake. do you take whey protein?

    @MJFSH, I can't tolerate whey so I use an organic rice protein in the morning before a run or workout. I can't seem to workout without some calories so that works for me. Add in some blueberries, spinach, coconut water and plain greek yogurt and I'm good to go. I've been doing better on protein lately because I'm making a big effort........getting to the 120-130g range. I feel better with more protein.

    Strength: P90X: Legs and back

    Cardio: walk tonight

    Nutrition: went over in carbs and fat last night, today will be a better day, has to be :)
