Day 5 - Legs, Back & Abs

Today was legs, back and abs and I forgot how much I HATED doing squats. My fat legs hate it when I make them do work. The wall squats are now my arch nemesis. There was also lots of other squatting and lunging mixed with pull ups/chin ups. I got a pretty good sweat going with the leg stuff. That has definitely been my weak spot so far, which I expected. I was excited to feel the burn in my butt and hamstrings though, since that's definitely the part that needs the most work.

I think we will be doing this one in the gym next time. Our little apartment made the lunging exercises a bit difficult, especially when Ryan and I were out of sync and practically bumping into each other. I used the bands this time for the pull ups by putting them over the door, and it worked well. I was afraid at first that it would snap and smack me square in the face, but luckily they seem to be able to withstand all my pulling and stretching.

Tomorrow Ryan might have to work late so he is thinking of doing Kenpo in the morning after I leave for work. I am not excited to have to do it on my own, I really enjoy having him there to push me and make sure I am doing it the right way. I guess this is something I'll have to get used to though since his schedule is always different. There will probably be a lot of times where we won't get to work out together. 

I am excited that it's almost the weekend, and then we get to start it all over again on Sunday! Woo hoo!
