Weights Wednesday!

First off, food was a good deal better today.  More on that later.

Bed too late last night, I'm going to be tucked in and reading before 10 tonight.   Have my water and am ready to hit the hay now.

Today's exercise was with my 25lb kettle bell and my Husbeast.  He is a big boy, and he has some weight to lose as well.  Of course he is going to kick the ass out of dropping 20lbs before I can even turn around and get a sniff at a 5lb loss.  No fair .... stupid male testosterone.  Side note.   Is anyone else out there finding that testosterone underarm "deodorant" stick commercial as hilarious as I do??  I can just see some mom yelling...."STAY OUT OF DADDY'S ARMPIT THERE ARE DRUGS IN THERE!!!!".    haha crazy ol world.

Okay.... workout. So we worked one on and one off.   While one was working with the KB, the other was doing some other exercise - just knocking out as many as you could in the time it took the other to finish the KB exercise. 

Each KB exercise took about 30-45 seconds (guestimate), so that was a damn long plank and wallsit, just saying!!!  I was tired and sweaty when we were done.  Also, in hindsight, we are going to need to walk the dog first, or get some sort of warm up, it was hard to just jump right to it.

Set 1.
15 sumo squats with KB between legs
crunches
25 KB swings
planks
15 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm
wall sits
15 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm
push ups

Set 2
10 sumo squats with KB between legs
crunches
15 KB swings
planks
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm
wall sits
10 KB High Clean pulls - Right arm
push ups

Walked the dog - 15-20 min.

Legs are feeling it for sure. More stretching tonight before bed and some rest is going to be excellent.

  1. Good job with your eating! I strive for between 1300 and 1600, it really adds up so fast.

    I completely understand about husbands. Stupid testosterone. My husband is a firefighter and electrician so he is so active, weight just falls off when he needs to lose 15 lbs.

    Keep up the great work.
