Weekly Goal: 3500
Mon: 528 (180 on a brisk walk with the dogs, 348 at my favorite dance/weights/ballet bar/cardio fusion class... I just called it "dancing" for 60 minutes!)
Tues: 415 (My poor pups didn't get a walk today due to terrible rainstorm... Bummed that it also knocks my calorie count down! I did 10 minutes at home punching the heavy bag - 73 cals, 20 minutes at home lifting free weights - 72 cals, and 90 minutes doing pilates on the reformer - 270 cals. Today was a good combo of strengthening core, arms and shoulders!)
Wed: 761 (581 in a cardio ballet barre/intervals/weights class, 180 on a 45 minute walk with the pupsters)
Thur; Long, crazy day, so I just managed to get two tiny workouts in: 198 cals. (90 cals for 30 minutes of pilates on the reformer, 108 for 30 minutes swinging kettlebells.)
Fri: 908 (An hour of pilates on the reformer for 179, a super-long walk with dogs for 729)
Sat: 179 (got a speedy hour of Pilates in-- all tower work, including some advanced stuff I hadn't done in a while... waterskiier, anyone?)
Sun: 198 (108 swinging club bells for 30 minutes, 90 from a super-fast 30-minute pilates reformer workout)
Total so far: 3187
Total to go: 313
*** Ugh, fell short by 313 calories this week-- mainly due to some truly abysmal weather that added to my commuting time rather dramatically and didn't allow me to spend as much outside time with my dogs as I wanted to. Onwards and upwards! Next week I'm going for 3,800!0 -
