Day 13: Meal 1 ~ Breakfast + Pure Cardio

I meant to go running this morning at the gym... but didn't make it!  Maybe I'll run after Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs.  A little worried... 2 workouts... then running?  I think I can do it.  Just gotta space them out... but showering?  *thinks*  I hate taking 2 showers in one day.

Oh well, we'll see!

Breakfast:  same ole cereal!

Food:  1 cup Post Banana Nut Cereal (240 kcal), 1/2 cup Vanilla Almond Soy Milk (~40 kcal)

Calories:  ~280 kcal

LOL You'll note the picture isn't food.  It's me after Pure Cardio workout!  This is me sweating and making beloved duckface.

Right now, this is my breaktime before I go into Cardio Abs!  Let's review my workout for today's Pure Cardio session!

Some reason during the warm-up I was getting a side-cramp on my left.  The last time I ate was breakfast.  I haven't had a snack since then... so unsure?  Maybe it was all the water I was drinking when I was driving around.  Kind of slowed me down in the beginning.

At least my warm-up feels stronger.  My 3rd set is kicking butt!  It used to kill me before!

Exercises that were difficult:
~ Suicide drills ~ Some reason I couldn't move fast!  And it was the first exercise!  Maybe I'm just tired.  *fail*
~ Level 2 drills ~ The burpee and "floor sprints" (mt. climbers) didn't both me... but the 8 push-ups in between!  Ended up having to modify them to knee push-ups!
~ Frog Jumps ~ Again, I modified them to full squats instead of half squats... but got so tired by 30 seconds!  I had to slow down... then was going really slow.
~ Push-up Jacks ~ The last exercise of the circuit.  So tired by then.  Took me about 5 seconds to mentally start and begin doing the exercises.  Boo to upper body!  *needs to get stronger*

Fun exercises:
~ Suicide jumps (burpees) ~ YES!  no push-ups in between.  This was getting tough at the end, but I like burpees.  They're such a great exercise.
~ Football drills ~ I keep naming the same exercises right?  LOL
~ Sprints + Lunges ~ I like when we move fast.  We're always supposed to move fast, but these are fun
~ Ski Jumps ~ A little difficult for me, but I enjoy trying to get "high" off the floor

Don't know if I'm forgetting anything... but it's been a few minutes.  Instead of prolonging it... onto Cardio Abs!!!
