Fitness Friday Arms and Abs

Hi Friends!

It’s already time for another weekend. I LOVE short weeks 🙂

fitnessfriday3

It’s been a busy, active week! Let’s recap shall we?

Friday: I did an arms and abs workout and let me tell you…it was a good one. I was sore for about 3 days!

Saturday: I ran 3 miles and biked about 10 miles!

Sunday: 15 mile bike ride and 1 hour of sand volleyball

Monday: 4 hours of yard work and a 2 mile solo walk instead of a nap

Tuesday: 8 mile bike ride with the hubby and a 3 mile walk with the dogs.

Wednesday: I took my last final and then squeezed in a 2 mile run before hubby got home from work!

The first one was actually about 8:10 and then I slowed down a bit on the second one…but still! My speed is coming back!

Fun fact: In middle school I could run a sub- 7 minute mile!
Maybe I’ll be able to do that again someday 🙂

Thursday: We were waiting for our mulch to be delivered so I wanted to squeeze in a quick workout that didn’t require any equipment! This one’s called the BW20. Basically because I was lazy and didn’t feel like coming up with a name for it. BW for bodyweight. 20 because it takes 20 minutes!

I finished up with 3 planks. It’s been a while since I’ve done planks and boy were they rough!

So there you have it friends! How were your workouts this week?

Enjoy!
