Do you ever have one of those days when you’re tired and just don’t feel like going to workout? I don’t think I got enough sleep last night and I was feeling hungry right after work. I planned to go to the gym right after work, but I made a pit stop at home. *Bad idea* I ended up lounging around for one hour. >___<

But good news! I got my booty off the couch and went to the gym!

My workout routine for Tuesday:
12 min treadmill warmup

Abs
300 crunches on ab machine (no weights)
100 vertical knee raises (no weights)
100 ab crunch machine (50-70 lbs)

Legs (3 sets below)
20 barbell squats (40 lbs)
10 barbell lunges ea (40 lbs)
20 dead lifts (40 lbs)
20 calf raises (no weights)

I stayed in the gym for about one hour. I felt tired and not-so-energized by the end of my first set of legs… I pushed through. But to tell the truth, I had planned on doing more sets and higher reps. x___X I guess that will wait until the weekend when I have plenty of rest!

To my fave part — post workout meal! I am so lucky to have people who can cook in my life! They share their recipes and teach me how to cook. At one time, my sister — Chef Banana — did tell me I was not allowed in any kitchen without supervision…

Times have changed. Chef Banana gave me some of Emeril’s Essence for my own cooking use. *Gotta love the Food Network* I used this delicious seasoning to cook a portion of tilapia with a bit of olive oil and made myself a salad! The kitchen did not burn down. I did not overcook the fish. And it did not take a long time! 😀

Looking forward to my Zumba class tomorrow! (and continue with the ab work)…
