Mike and I did 15 minutes of him shouting out exercises and me doing as I was told haha I like it that way though, I don't have to think about it haha... I'll try and remember what we did...
Leg raises
2 minute plank
Sit-ups
Side Plank (with bounce)
Crunches
Sit-ups with a twist
1 minute ab wheel hold
Crunch holds
I'm pretty sure I forgot a few exercises but you get the gist! I've not tested my max plank again yet but I nearly dropped before 2 minutes... It's so hard after the leg raises!! Bahh I hate leg raises...but that means they must work so I must keep doing them haha
Weekly Totals
Miles - 19.3
Push-ups - 61
Chin-ups - 13
Pull-ups - 3
Neck Exercises - 0
Isometric Punches - 0
Wrist Curls - 0
Core - 2
I'm still not doing as many chin-ups and push-ups as I'd like, I really need to get into better routine with them but I'm not sure how, maybe I should try doing them first thing... I've seen on some other blogs people doing them first thing and it seems to work for them! Maybe doing a few sets of 10 most mornings would be the way forward.... Must try it this week!
In other news, Mike's dad dropped off our new rabbit! Meet Scooby!
He was their rabbit but they got a cat and the rabbit doesn't get much attention anymore and they didn't really want him anymore so he's ours now :) I love rabbits so we didn't have to think much about having him! He's very sweet and has made friends with the guinea pigs already, he seems to like Grace a lot!
Here's some more pics from today, animals and some BBQ pics... didn't take enough BBQ pics really!
The table, salad, sauces and green tea! Yum!

Logging you in...
I had a guinea pig when I was a teenager called Mowgli- I loved him but my Mum gave him away as she said I never cleaned out his cage. What did she expect? I was a teenager! Now that I'm a tad responsible I definitely want to get another pet :) I'm a little freaked out by rabbits though, no idea why! Oh and if Mike wants to come and yell at me to do exercises so I get off this sofa he'll be very welcome :)
ReplyDeleteHEY GIRLIE! ...re-posting my comment on your comment(in case you don't see it!):
ReplyDeletehey Laura!
I cut back on caffeine the week before a race/event for both the dehydrating & stimulus effects. By not drinking as much coffee in the morning I drink more water…which hydrates and prepares my cells better for an intense race. And lowering the amount of caffeine I get all week=LESS needed on race day in order to feel a little ENERGIZED by just 1-cup….I can’t drink a lot and then RUN, so the less caffeine needed to stimulate my body to GO GO GO…means the less coffee in my bladder! (hehe…sorry TMI!)…
…it could be all psychological! but i’ve been doing this for years before swim meets, and now I do it before running races.
~so excited you just got a rabbit! HOW FUN!
:)
awww such cute rabbits playing in the sunshine!
ReplyDeleteand don't stress too much about your push/chin ups not being where you'd like. youre about 61 pushups and 13 chin up ahead of me ;)
Oh my goodness, your pets are adorable! I can't get over the hair on Gracie - so cute! They made me smile; thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHope your stomach is feeling better!
