Workout Wednesday

Workout Wednesday: 8-23-17

Happy hump day!  Are you ready to for another Workout Wednesday?  Last weekend was a little rough for me as far as diet and exercise.  We had my sister’s engagement party and I definitely ate too much sugar.  We decided not to have it catered and mad the food for 60 people!  I was so busy cooking that I did not have any time to go workout.  Soooo, I wanted to get back into this week and back on track.

I know I struggle with feelings of diet guilt after a weekend like I had.  I try to remind myself that its ok to not be perfect on occasion and enjoy life.  Those few extra pounds we may have or that little jiggle in your belly are the fun times you had with friends and family.  Spend time with people you have fun with, enjoy yourself, don’t go overboard, and get back on track starting with the next meal.   As long as you are trying to eat well 95% of the time, changes with happen and it will get easier.

This was my workout from yesterday. I wanted to hit every muscle group just a little. If you want an extra challenge and to keep your heart rate elevated, throw in a minute of jump rope between each circuit.
