Did Zuzanna’s ZWOW #14 last night with 12# dumbbells. It was a good was to recover from an entire day of siting behind my desk.
This morning I got in INSANITY Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs, along with a 30min run. Admittedly, my legs are very tired right now.

So today was the first time I was able to take my real bike out for my morning workout. The ice is gone, and even though it feels very warm, I forgot that 36(f) on a bike feels much colder - especially going downhill. OMG my toes got chilly - and by chilly, I mean numb.
Today’s lesson is that spinning is much different than biking outdoors. Standing climbs on a spin bike are NOT the same as climbing a steep hill on a mountain bike. My glutes were on fire!
I also got in the Insanity Cardio Power and Resistance workout in before the ride, which may have also contributed to the burn.
Russian Twists
A perfect morning for a run. 32 degrees and clear. I took a detour up to the ski trails to see if they are clear of snow yet, but they are still covered. It may be a week or even more before they are clear enough to run.
Afterward, I popped in the Insanity Plyometric Cardio workout, then finished with some core work:
The Russian Tuck Twist is similar to a Russian Twist, only that one leg is extended and the other leg is bent bringing the knee toward the chest.
Run: 00:53:00 (distance: 6.02mi)
Insanity Workout: 00:40:00
Core: 00:05:30
Zuzana has posted ZWOW #12 and it looks killer. Even she is out of breath by the end.
30min HIIT This Morning
5 x rounds of 50/10sec intervals
Jump lunges
Mountain climbers
Back lunge/High Kick
Side plank lifts (L)
Full extension crunch w/ 12# ball
Side plank lifts (R)
This workout is great cardio and way more challenging than it seems. I was sweating hard by the end!
The roads right now are in terrible shape. The temps are in the high 40(F) yesterday and today and snow is melting and refreezing at night, making things super icy. Right now the goal is to NOT BREAK ANY BONES before breakup is over.
