Day 5 - Back on Track!
Since I missed the Cardio Recovery yesterday I planned on doing it today, well five minutes in and I realized I didn't deserve to take it that easy since I took yesterday off so I fast forwarded to the Pure Cardio and it was intense!
I pushed myself harder today than I have in the past two weeks of working out. It was extremely hard and I had to take extra breaks, but I paused the DVD caught my breath and dove right back in with them and finished!
When I say I pushed myself, I mean I had already burned over 200kcal by the time I had warmed up and done my stretching!
Now, I didn't do everything perfect by any means...I still modified movements that I couldn't do like the jack-up's...which are crazy hard! I did like one and fell flat on my face so I then started doing regular push-ups. Next set I attempted one more and again fell flat on my face so I continued doing regular push-ups until I finally finishing with modified girl push-ups.
(I set up my phone so that when it came time for the cool down I could say "capture" and my phone would snap a few shots. The color was all wonky so I made it B&W.)
Today was hard, but felt really good too!
NO HEADACHE TODAY!!! Yeah!
I drank my Shakology soon after and ate a banana which I am sure helped.
How I feel - Honestly, I don't know if it was because I took the day off yesterday, but I feel GREAT! Even after today's tough workout.
Per my HRM my Average HR was 153 with a HIGH of 204...high, but I really kicked it into overdrive (for me).
My total work out time was 50 min and my HR was "in-zone" for only 19.44 min...so not great, but I will get there.
Calories burned today were 795kcal!!!

Slowly getting better with my eating, but I still need to get to bed earlier. I am not giving my body enough recovery time with the little amount of sleep that I get.
