What I did last week:

Thursday-30 minutes on a bike.

Saturday- 1 hour of BodyPump. I haven’ been in a class for awhile so it was nice to get back in there. And the instructor I love was teaching so I was able to really get into it. We also took a 20 minute walk with the dogs and baby.

Sunday-I took the dogs on a 30 minute walk by myself. I found a great 2.5 mile loop by our house that has two monster hills. I think I want to try to be able to run them by the end of the summer…maybe.

Monday-20 minute ab workout.

Tuesday-30 minutes on the elliptical.

Impressed by:

I figured out how to read while on the elliptical without getting motion sickness or a headache so that was a win for this week. I might actually finish a book this way!

Struggled with:

That hill by our house was a struggle pushing the stoller, but I conquered it ever so slowly. It was a good struggle.

Did I meet my goal from last week?

I did work out at least 5 days. Whoop whoop!

What is my goal for next week?

George and I are going to be on a road trip the next 5 days, so my goal is to do these stretches every morning. I would also like to get at least one workout done on the road, but we’ll see how that happens since I will be solo with George.

Fitness Thoughts:

Hills are hard-mentally and physically. The downs and ups both are hard in their own rights. Why don’t I live in a place that is flat?

How do you tackle hills? Do you have any good road trip exercises you do?
