<\/a>\nSpicy sausages for dinner and sauteed asparagus.<\/p>\n
Saturday morning I woke up and felt somewhat human. I decided I’d give a workout a try. I wasn’t sure how much energy I would have so I decided to workout at home instead of going to the gym like I normally do on Saturdays. I started with the Nike Training App Cardio Burst that I tried a few days ago (15 minutes) then I tried a brand new workout:<\/p>\n Flutter Kicks<\/p><\/div>\n I did the first workout (15 minutes) and most of the Hardbody workout (25 of 30 minutes) for a total of 40 minutes before hopping on the bike. I burned a nice amount of calories during that 40 minutes too:<\/p>\n Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n Time: 1:22 Calories Burned: 709<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nMichael cooked the asparagus in the skillet with Grapeseed Oil. I seasoned it with salt, pepper and freshly grated Parmesan. The spicy sausages were good and hit the spot.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI was glad I ate because I needed nourishment (even though my stomach felt really full without food). It was nice to have fresh asparagus too after so long without.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nHardbody HQ: a 30 minute Kick Your Butt session. There was so much variety to the workout I had to take three photos of it to show all the moves. Here’s #2:<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nAnd the final installment of the Hardbody workout:<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nMy favorite moves were the Straight Leg Kicks, Flutter Kicks, Ski Jumps and Mountain Climbers. I think I”ll have Michael take a video of me doing some of these exercises to give you guys a demonstration.The Flutter Kicks were an instant ab burner.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>
\nMy pre-workout snacks were two kiwis and some Odwalla juice. Not what I’d normally eat before a workout but nothing else sounded appealing.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI rode the bike for about 40 minutes while I watched my shows and then called it good. Despite my head cold and coughing fit first thing that morning I had a good workout. I wasn’t tired, weak, sore or short of breath. I’m glad I got my body moving after 2 days of being a sloth.<\/p>\n

\nMichael and I split a 3 egg omelet for breakfast. 3 eggs, splash of 1% milk, shredded Colby Jack cheese, green onion and 3 slices of bacon crumbled. I added some salsa and sour cream to my half of the omelet. Despite splitting it, it still felt like a gut bomb. Omelets are just too big for me (which is weird because I normally eat 1.5 eggs for breakfast anyways).<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nWe left the house with a list of errands to take care of, planning on eating lunch out somewhere. We never did get lunch and I still wasn’t hungry! What the heck? We drove down to Woodburn to hit the outlet mall. The Nike store is our favorite and we both had 20% off coupons for Nike (unheard of!). I got a new running hat and a birthday present for my mom. I also got a T-shirt at Banana Republic and Michael got a few things too. Then back to Portland to go to Sports Authority. They sent us both $25 off coupons in the mail recently–with no minimum purchase required. How weird was that? We couldn’t let $25 go unspent so Michael used his $25 off for a workout shirt and I got a Nike workout shirt and one pair of Under Armor underwear. Michael swears by them for their wicking powers. I thought I give it a try.<\/p>\n
