Holy cow! Less than five weeks until our all-inclusive!
For the rest of the time before the trip, I'm focusing on Cathe's live workouts. There are so many! It should be fun!
Monday: Cathe's Buff Upper Body Live + walk + YWA
This was a really good upper body workout. It wasn't quite trisets...but there were some trisets mixed in. Either way, my muscles were hurting and I struggled to get through some of the sets. At lunch, I walked at the rec to get some steps. I also did some sit-ups and ab work. After work and a stressful drive home, I did Adriene's One Commune yoga for the day, which was very relaxing.
Tuesday: Cathe's Metabolic Conditioning Live + RWH Abs 1
I'm pretty sure I'd tried to do this workout before and had problems with it loading. Thankfully, it worked today! This was a pretty good workout - which alternated cardio and compound weighted exercises. It seemed a bit uneven with more cardio in the second half.... But I still enjoyed it and it went by quickly. After work, I did this core workout which I really felt in my obliques. Yes!
Wednesday: Cathe's Smokin' Lower Body Live + walk
Leg day! This live workout was really good. It was broken down into sections, which helped mentally, for some reason - unweighted, weighted, step. I hate walked lunges and squats - HATE THEM - but I did them....with 12 lb weights. At lunch, my legs were already sore so I walked, did planks, and stretched really, really well. Stuff around the house kept me from doing yoga.
Thursday: YWA + YWA
Today I woke up and got to do yoga - these are the best days! I did one of Adriene's One Commune videos....day 9, I think. These are good and, if you're new to yoga, would be a great starting point. I like that they're slow and make me really focus on form and movement. In the evening, I did day 10, which was equally good. My legs were hurting so it felt so good to stretch!
Friday: Cathe's Flex Train
Total body today! This workout always gets me sweating - and today was no exception. I did everything - except core - and got a great workout. I switched bands - to one with more tension - and immediately felt it in my back. And that's good since I want a nice back for my days in a bikini! I also focused on hitting my triceps really well. A great morning workout! Errands kept me from yoga at the end of the day.
Saturday: Cathe's Fit Body Boot Camp + Nordin's Butt Bible 3
I was not looking forward to 40 minutes of torture with Butt Bible 3. So I did 25 minutes of Cathe's boot camp, which was alright. I did some cardio instead of other, more stationary moves, to keep my heart rate up. Nordin had no problem keeping my heart pounding like crazy. This lovel 3 workout is pure torture and I'm not looking forward to three more weeks of it. Ugh. I was hurting before this workout ended. I stretched really well to try to negate pain tomorrow.
Sunday: Cathe's Move It + RWH Abs 2
Today was pure cardio - and I was looking forward to it! But my legs and butt were aching. Sigh. Thank you, Pauline Nordin, for giving me a day filled with pain. I got through this workout and did some of my own cardio for a total of 40 minutes. Then, abs. This RWH ab workout is no joke. I was hurting in the first two minutes. Ha! After that ended - over 10 minutes later - I stretched.

When I weighed on Friday morning, my weight was the same as last week. I had to ditch my diet on Saturday due to the celebration of my dad's birthday while he and my mom were in town. It felt so good to eat badly - until my stomach gave me grief that night.
