Back/Biceps Another after work, workout. I had little motivation to workout after work but, once I got home, I immediately changed my clothes and just did it. I tried to not give myself time to relax or think about it, which I think really helped. Like every Saturday, at least on the Saturdays where I… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 11

Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 10
Chest/Triceps I started off today's workout walking for 20 minutes on the treadmill. For the first 10 minutes I was walking at a 5% incline, then bumped it up to 7% for the last 10. I liked this workout more than last weeks. One improvement that I've noticed, is that I can now do Tricep… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 10
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 8 & 9
Day 8: Today was another rest day since I dog sat in the morning and went to work in the afternoon. Day 9: Legs/Glutes! Cardio wasn't listed on today's workout, but I ended up doing 20 minutes on the treadmill as a warm up. Walking on the treadmill has become a habit for me. It… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 8 & 9
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 6 & 7
Day 6: I didn't workout yesterday (Monday) since I worked 2 shifts. I was thinking about working out during my break but, since I'll be too busy on Wednesday, I figured having Monday & Wednesday off would be better than having back-to-back rest days. My 1st shift did require a lot of walking, so in… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 6 & 7
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 5
Thankfully today wasn't an AMRAP, but a circuit. I'm not a huge fan of AMRAP workouts. Before the workout, I spent 15 minutes on glute activation and walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes. I really liked this workout. It was a lower body circuit, but it was mostly glute work. One of my favorite… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 5
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 4
Back/Biceps I noticed the most changes in the Back/Biceps workouts, primarily with the banded rows. Instead of being seated, you're in a squatting position. Like the Face Pulls, I had to use a clothing rod in the closet, so it didn't feel the sturdiest, but it's fine. Eventually I'll be reunited with the cable towers.… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 4
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 3
Chest/Triceps! I think the Chest & Triceps workouts are my least favorite. It could be due to the fact that I'm doing them at home, or because I feel like I'm lying on the ground the entire time, or a combination of both. Today was no different. Though I wasn't lying on the ground the… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 3
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 2
Day 2, Legs & Glutes! Once again I started off with cardio, which was 20 minutes walking on the treadmill at a 5% incline. Then, before I got into the listed workout, I spent 10 minutes on glute activation. Like most females, I am very quad dominant, and my hamstrings and glutes are not where… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 2
Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 1
My plan was to do the first workout yesterday but, due to a Covid scare, I stayed in my bed for a good part of the day. I did walk on the treadmill for 20 minutes, but that's as far as I got. I knew that if I continued, my mind would be somewhere else… Continue reading Fit & Functional 4.0: Day 1
Whats Been Goin’ On
I knew once I started going back to work, blogging would be put on the back burner. I'm a person of routine, so now that I'm back working, my life outside of work has been pretty mundane. Plus, along with my regular work, I started dog sitting and helping out with adult softball. Not only… Continue reading Whats Been Goin’ On
