Strength and Treadmill Mix-up

Yesterday’s workout called for some strength training. I look forward to my strength training, which I do Monday, Wednesday, Friday. As much as I love cardio, I really love the feeling after a great workout with some weights. I feel strong:)

I always make sure to do a bit of cardio though to really get my heart pumpin’. I saw this treadmill workout on Lindsay’s blog and thought it looked like a good mix of intervals and hills. I ended up switching it around though and doing the intervals first then the hills second and shortened the time. My workout ended up looking like this.

9:30-21	4.5	1.0
21-22	5.8	8.0

28-29	4.0	11.0
29-30	5.0	12.0

After my workout, it was time for dinner of course.

My mom is sick (sore throat, etc.) I hope I don’t get sick, blah.

So she made some soup. I had a cup of tomato with this bowl of protein.

Looks gross but tasted good. Beans, edamame, tomatoes, cottage cheese, turkey.

Pretty much a salad without the lettuce because I was way too lazy to cut and wash the lettuce
